Linux I almost think will start being the OS for Gamers x86 users. Windows has also been for some reason wanting to copy mac and go to ARM, which is not very good for gaming at all yet though good for laptop battery life and of course AI because it only works on those new PC.
if only there was another option that started with the letter L and ended with the letter X... hmmmm im so glad the steam deck existing has made linux gaming more plausible than ever. im bout to set up dual boot if this nonsense starts getting pushed on diy pcs
@@GM-Shenmue Sure. That phrase gets attached to anything humans don't initially like. I remember hearing that when it was considered odd and ego stroking when people first started having their own personal websites. It's always the beginning of the end of the human race.
I agree. I have been building my own PCs since the mid 1980's. Used every MS OS since MS DOS 1.1. Microsoft ONLY reacts to users when their quarterly earnings change to the negative. It seems that MS is marketing to a different crowd. One that likes all the cutesy bells and whistles.
@@M7829-f7q That's odd. Microsoft reported negative quarterly earnings in the 4th Quarter of 2022. So they will now react to users? The decline was due to foreign exchange rates over which they have no control and diluted earnings. I guess I don't care how or why they had negative quarterly earnings as long as they react to us, the users.
Kind of hard to have AI monitor and analyze my work as an underground mining engineer when there's no wifi, no computers, no cellphone signals, no cable. no fiber, no toilets. Hell even compasses spin around and around when held in your hand. (They do work when placed on the ground.)
@@hansmatos2504 Okay, so how is this "magic" neuralink chip supposed to communicate through 650 feet of rock from the underground face? Ans: It can't. Hell, even shortwave radio and ham only work about 300 feet distance down there due to all the pillars.
I've been a Microsoft DOS/Windows user since the late 1980s. None of the computers in our household is compatible with Windows 11. It would cost a fortune to replace the 3 PCs and 1 laptop we have. (We're retired) I've started trials of various flavours of Linux in preparation for October 2025...
Hardware doesn't last forever but even then your options under Linux are much better. If a motherboard dies, you can pop the HDD/SSD out, put it in another machine and have it just run without re-activation problems. You can replace with a second hand machine or other older generation hardware saving money. Moving away from Windows makes lots of things simpler and more reliable.
@@hansmatos2504 I'm currently looking at Ubuntu, Mint, Pop OS & KDE Neon (maybe others) I have a spare 250GB drive that I've configured as four Ext4 partitions, so I can easily boot different distros for comparison. My use case involves programming in C++ for an open source project, so I will be checking out alternatives for the excellent Visual Studio IDE. I currently run unit tests for GCC and Clang under CLI Ubuntu on WCL. My wife uses her PC for company accounting and online store management. It would be best if we have the same distro on each machine for simplicity. We also have a mini PC that we have been using as a 'backup server' and Plex media centre. This will need some research to see how we can support backup utilities. At the moment we backup from our PCs to the server using Iperius Backup (Windows only), with Backblaze (limited Linux support) running 24/7 to backup to the cloud.
@@hansmatos2504 OMG you're not the typical Linux geek! Here, have this helmet and bulletproof vest, you'll need it. (Those Arch guys are *everywhere* )
I've never used Linux but listening to Linux users talk about it leaves me with the conclusion that it's pretty much a chaotic mess of compromised functionality. The number of versions and compatibility workarounds needed make it less of an OS and more of a constant time sink. Linux does not make me feel better.
@musicbro8225 When I have tried Linux in the past and had a problem, a search for solutions often brings up several answers that are incompatible with my distro, and not only that, are incomprehensible, as they require in-depth knowledge of the guts of the Linux OS, which would require yet more research. All when I'm just trying to get work done. I'm a C++ programmer by trade, but I'm more interested in getting work done than fiddling with the low-level details of Linux.
I absolutely will NEVER trust Microsoft ever again with hardware. I learned my lesson after Windows ARM and WIndows Phone. This is just another project that will be sidelined and retired in two years.
I commiserate with you, but take heart. I run Linux on my ARM computer. It runs well and doesn't use a lot of electricity, too. I'm looking forward to those new Snapdragon X Elite machines. I look forward to vengefully kicking Windows OFF one of them and running Linux on it. 🤣 I recently tossed Windows 11 off another person's computer; it was fun!🤣
Yeah, but does Microsoft really retire stuff, they just rename things or roll it into other projects. Really, Copilot is just Cortana rebranded with extra spying features.
Ah ha! "Cortana!" That's the word I was looking for! Thank you! "Introducing Cortana Pilot Plus...now with the new in-greed-iant "Creep-u-Out" with enhanced spying features! Big Brother is watching YOU!"🤣🤣
Gaming on Nobara KDE. I play WoW through Bottles (Bnet launcher has a bottle) GE Proton 9-5. I was using Steam compatibility but an update broke that. I've distro hopped enough gaming is the harder part, if you're doing other things it's easier. Can always start as a dual boot then migrate over when comfortable.
@@erikferguson71 Inside the closed domain of a LAN with a router/firewall standing guard you don't actually need individual firewalls ... Except that on older OSs MS runs file sharing out of the firewalls.
If I understand this correctly, most corporations run Dell and this monstrosity of an operating system will be baked into corporate computers. Am I the only one who sees how bad this could become?
@peek5548Yep! Our manager said he didn’t believe or agree with the gps tracking devices corporate installed in our vehicles. 4 months later he was burning up the printer with reports on every truck.
@peek5548 Being a corporate sysadmin, recall will be useless for employee management. It'll be widely disabled in enterprise environments as its presence would defeat data loss protection controls. Management KPIs are used for employee performance monitoring, not trawling through endless screenshots.
Windows Recall can be deactivated by accessing Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. As the feature can be easily turned off, I do not see why it would violate privacy laws.
@@Eternal_Tech You really believe that bs from Microsoft that the data will only be stored locally? It should be off by default. Yes it violates privacy laws. A hacker would have a field day with this garbage.
@@Eternal_Tech Typically not true for an employee working on a business device provided by the employer though. It may not be always Microsoft that's held liable and legally responsible for violating privacy laws in many countries and cases, but Windows Recall will most certainly become a major legal issue in various ways varying from market to market, from country to country, and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. There will be a foreseeable flood of intentional and unintentional violations of local laws simply resulting from using the Windows Recall feature, and that's not even getting into all the possible threats regarding hacking and other forms of (cyber-) attacks on the devices running Windows Recall on them.
Starts with a "sticker" then when there are sufficient purchases to use the new premium features, they will start charging a monthly fee. Obviously, if you spend 1k on a PC to take advantage of these features, another $10-20 a month as a subscription would be fine...right - When will the EU ban this and force MS to disable it by default? - May be an idea for manufacturers to have a "Co-Pilot Banned" sticker on their PCs - at no cost to the end user.
Windows 11 LTSC exist, it's the same windows 11 but without all the bloatware and AI, also no need requirement TPM or UEFI you don't need this anymore with LTSC
With the direction M$ is taking right now, and keeping in mind their previous fuckups over the years... Yup, you're on the right track my pal. It's best to switch now -- as painful as adapting might be -- and never looking back. After all, luckily we do have ways to run windows programs under linux when/if needed
Two things: 1 - A system that literally records EVERYTHING you do, to send it to a database, to literally sell that info online? Holy shit, no. My PERSONAL computer is not so personal anymore. And I know Microsoft, they will do a way to enable that feature on systems that "doesn't support AI" and they WILL keep enabling it without telling you every time you disable it. Frankly, Linux never looked so bright. 2 - Microsoft wants to be Apple. They want to force you on new hardware, they want to force you do use the system the way THEY think you should, etc. Again, I'm already messing around with Linux Mint to try and activate SCrivener, which is the software I use to work, once I'm able to do it on my laptop, my PC will be updated to Linux too. And I doubt I would ever go back to Windows, because it's clear that Microsoft wants to force these on us, a simple example of that is the fact that Windows 10 is losing support next year, but there's no new Windows version, only 11, and the Windows 11 is getting those updates no one asked for. Holy shit.
The video dude misrepresented the product boiling it down to the concept of a ridiculous sticker. Problem is, people fell for that line. He was using unfinished BETA Windows, not a ready operating system. It's like saying I have all the pre-parts of the car, why can't the car run?? It's because you don't REALLY have all the parts (like you think you do) and it's not put together yet. When it's together, then we will put our sticker on the window which is a guarantee it works and it's for sale. After that time, you can mimic it all you want. If we accept that in the automotive world, why do we disregard it in the computer world?
I went from dual boot to just Nobara after Recall. I would say it's more about leaving and you can spend time after to figure out what you like. I've used a lot over the years Mint, Manjaro, ArcoLinux, Debian, Fedora & Nobara were my favorites. Environments you can experiment but I like KDE>LXQt (lightweight)>XFCE, not into heavier (felt Ubuntu was a bit heavy on Gnome). You can add swap and download freeware, it's worth experimenting with.
Or just don't enable Recall in the settings. Either way, a competent tech can tell you everything Recall and more for over a decade now. Recall is only providing a timeline of your PC activity., something that log files in your computer having been doing for decades.
I am sure Microsoft is making this exclusive for now because these features are half baked and will require a ton of work to get fixed up. They will probably make it available to PCs that technically meet the requirements later.
The other annoyance is having to use bypas scripts to update Win11 just because TPM and secure boot are turned off in BIOS because you don't have any use for these features.
@@SpaceCadet4Jesus It's the backhanded deviousness of MS in trying take away the choice of what I want on my system. I would call it criminal damage if it's done without my consent. If you say it's in the EULA, then MS is abusing it's dominant position and is liable for a massive billion -trillion dollar fine.
@@robertjames4908 What did you want that Microsoft took away? Or what did you want on your system that Microsoft is trying to take away? I'm trying to figure that out. You're not getting AI recall unless you buy special Hardware built for it so that's out and a non issue. If you have Windows home, you don't have BitLocker, and if you do have BitLocker in Windows Pro you can either not use it or uncheck the box it and it uninstalls. So that's another potential none issue. If you want privacy and no updates then turn off the background intelligent transfer service and the Windows update services with a simple checkbox, and phoning home becomes a potential nonissue issue too. If you don't believe in allowing Microsoft to take Telemetry data which is none identifiable usage and helps Microsoft to plan for what people want in the next operating system then that's your choice. Did you know that in Windows Pro, there's a group policy editor and a local security policy editor app. In the group policy editor alone, there are 4,225 checklist options where you can turn Windows basically inside out and have it as locked down as you want, replace parts of the UI and change how it operates, what appears and what doesn't what is clickable and what isn't. I don't think Linux has anything to match the breath or depth of the group policy editor. Also in each option of the editor there is a description of what that feature does and doesn't do. That's true customization.
I don't give a flying "f" about Ai on my PC. I don't need Ai to tell me stuff rather than figure it out for myself which is half the reason I enjoy using it. As soon as we all start relying on Ai for everything the human race is stuffed.
This sounds like a conspiracy between Microsoft and PC makers. Microsoft has gotten on my last nerve. I have an older Acer Aspire which runs Win 10 great, but it is not built for Win 11. At end of life for Win 10, I will keep using 10 until I can no longer do so due to exploits or whatever. I tried to put Linux on the laptop, but it will not install even using Ventoy or even burning the ISO to a USB with Rufus. It runs through the installation until the end and then stops. So, I am thinking I could use a VM on my Win 10 and use Linux that way. Don't know if this will work or not. My desktop uses Win 11, but if they try to make me use Recall on my Win 11, I will revolt. Ya, Microsoft also said Win 10 would be the last ISO, but then they made Win 11, So, don't trust Microsoft. Microsoft just couldn't leave well enough alone with Win 7 by making Win 8! Then they made Win 10 which I like very much, but then they made Win 11 which has turned me off to AI and anything Microsoft does. I will never have to worry about Recall or AI. If I must, I will switch to Linux and Microsoft's market share will continue to fall. Tens of thousands of people use older PCs with older OS distros. Most of them cannot afford a new PC in order to keep up with Microsoft and the PC makers. Just disgusting!
Copilot+ PCs require an onboard NPU capable of 40 TOPS or more. It's not just a sticker. CPUs with NPUs meeting that threshold are just around the corner or rolling out now, starting with the new Snapdragon X Elite. That all said, I don't care about all this AI stuff right now or anytime soon.
@@CyberCPU you seriously think Windows checks for a sticker on the case of the computer? It checks for the hardware requirements. It can't detect a sticker on the case. If it thinks the necessary hardware is installed, it will enable these features. No sticker is required.
@@professorbrainyspecs7366 Really?! Did you take it literally that Microsoft will enable those features by a sticker and not actually by checking the current installed hardware??!!

@@MeilleureVie2024 Yeah, VBA can be hard to go without, if one really needs it. Aren't there any other (free) spreadsheet apps out there, with something similar? It would of course not be with VBA, but with another programming language. And one would have to rewrite the code.
For all of you thinking of going to Linux, do it! Small learning curve but it looks and acts like windows and there are plenty of versions to pick from. I have both, separately and on dual boot. The information you get from this channel is mind blowing sometimes and that is why I am a subscriber. I quit relying on MS years ago but that is how I make my money but personally I work off a Linux Mint box almost exclusively. AI sounds great but at the rate it is growing it is not going to be too long off where there is no turning back.
@@esecallum Can happen with Windows too, especially if you are trying to use one of the command line methods to install Windows without a MS account or debloat or whatever. Linux has better protection against that sort of thing and better recovery tools. And if you do nuke your system and have to rebuild and restore from backup, you get your system back without having to hunt all over the internet for drivers or find the software you depend on. Drivers come with the kernel and software is all readily available in the distro repository.
Linux is a joke for most people. Ya'll think everyone does gaming and browsing on their pcs. This thing is HORRIBLE for audio production. HORRIBLE. All the major plugins are unavailable, majority of the famous DAWs are unavailable. like what am i supposed to do with Linux? Everyone who hasn't done any serious work on their computers is like "move to linux bro its all perfect there". Like give me a break..
I must have missed something about the voice clarity thing. Was there just like three words without the feature for comparison? I didn't find any difference. And was it said that the feature cannot be turned off? That'd be horrible! Whatever echo and noise cancellation Windows has had on by default for years makes the sound metallic echo-y and hard for me to understand what is said, and disabling it is one of the steps when reinstalling Windows.
In 1990 we had Arnold Schwarzenegger's Total Recall 22 years later (2012) there was a remake of Total Recall, only worse But then 2024 came around, and this time we're facing the worst of them all: Windows (Copilot+) Recall
TBF to Microsoft, they've said the Recall feature will be very customizable, including just turning it off. Personally, I do get why being able to search for something I saw weeks ago but can't remember where could be useful, but I also get the privacy concerns, especially if the PC is compromised. Also, right now the CoPilot Plus features require one of the new Qualcomm processors but Nvidia announced at Computex that they're working with Microsoft to make sure folks with RTX GPUs will be able to use the features at some point down the line, not to mention both AMD and Intel have said they'll have processors with the required NPU spec out sometime this year.
Hey Update from beta tester (without copilot+) from the beta i can see that copilot now has a Windowed mode instead of the side and more plugin's and is more smarter theres also a App for phones IOS and Android
Seriously Apple scans your photo library for child indecent images. In the UK a lot of older dudes have young wifes from Thailand. They look underage so they could be flagged. Every photo library on the phone has AI object recognition on my Galaxy Phone I can search for cars, documents, dogs you name it and with the ability to extract text from pictures all your screenshots are already scanned. You can run but you can't hide. You can turn off as many AI Assist features as possible but to stay incognito is hard work.
That new requirement that is must be a new OEM PC with a sticker is ridiculous. Someone who has a good working PC that is 3-4 years old, is not going to out buy a brand new HP or Dell PC. The only reason is if it is needed for work or school purposes. Also, most businesses will not buying a new computer every couple of years as they use the same old PC for many years
Microsoft making it inaccessible is making people who were against AI, recall , bitlocker actually want it. Reverse psychology here. Whose tricking who?...
"have you ever wanted to go back to that website that has a picture of an actor from a certain movie" is'nt that feature called HISTORY in your actual browser? so, why would you need something like recall that records everything you do on your computer, even bank transactions, thats unbelievable stupid and certainly a security risk
I have a problem when I clicked on control panel it's saying application not found and file explorer, recycle bin, this pc also not working in win 11.please help😢
I do work that sometimes requires me to look at documents then remove them from my PC. It's mostly nothing major, but it is a privacy requirement in my field. Recall could make me accidentally violate that rule. In most cases the worst that would happen is I get sued, but there are a few where jail time could happen. I really really do not want either to happen! If they force Recall, I will be forced to go to.... ugh Mac.... I can't get Linux to work with AutoCAD. Ugh!
To deactivate Windows Recall, access Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. This feature can be literally turned off in less than 10 seconds.
Who needs skill or knowledge when the AI can do it. Anyone else think this is a bad idea. Probably won't need YT channels any more ¬_¬ The site I buy my washable glove puppets from shall remain forever anonymous. A $1000 sticker ;-) When my home Win10 gets taken out back to join old Yella, I shall move to Linux. On my Win11 Office computer, I already notice that every time I open a pdf, Co-Pilot is reading it, but I didn't ask it to ¬_¬
Microsoft is forcing me to buy a new pc that I don't need. Windows !0 works just great on my older machines. Looks like i going to learn how to use a Linux OS, and no I am not buying anything Apple
Let me Clear... I know it's sarcasm lol but this is for Microsoft to hear hopefully I don't want any AI on my pc! Specially Recall! I'm glad my pc technically doesn't support it. Coz it's a bless I can't have it. But man.. people are gonna get hurt. *move to linux!* nope. Tried it, hate it, moved it. I have to use windows until everything works on linux perfectly.
Wut?! I built a computer in June with a 14900 and 7900 xtx, and Windows 11 Home, and it installed co-pilot automatically. 24H2 also installed recall (which I disabled of course) and paint has image creator. I didn't make it much further in this video, but I can say unequivocally that you do not need the sticker.
I can understand how Microsoft came to develop a feature like Recall. It's actually the natural outcome of integrating AI into Windows. For that AI to be able to help you properly, it needs to know everything about you. So it has to spy on you, for your benefit. Now Microsoft could have done this in the background, and leave it there, never letting the user directly access all that information, but they didn't. Recall is just another way to access the database that an AI assistant already has to build. By presenting it to users as an useful feature they might be more willing to let the AI use all that disk space. I don't think that Microsoft expected the backlash they got for this.
From what I have learned about Windows Recall, it is not a big deal. First, it can be easily deactivated by accessing Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. Second, the snapshots that it takes are encrypted. Third, the snapshots can be deleted at any time by the user. Fourth, if the user chooses to enable this feature, the amount of storage devoted to the snapshots can be changed.
So the company mandating I make an account with them and mandating they get to hold a copy of the encryption keys to my computer is telling me the screenshots my computer is taking will be safe because they are only on my local encrypted drive? Legal experts out there. If the government demands microsoft turn over the encryption keys to my pc do I have standing to object, cuz the way I read it, I don't. They likely can take anything they want from a 3rd party that you 'voluntarily' turned over to them.
Masses are easily programmable… well good portion of them are. Just scare them to the point… “either our way or you have to sacrifice”…majority will easily cave in do what they are told.

Just made the leap to Linux. Microsoft can keep the AI crapware. Mind you most people can not afford all that stuff. Some are still stuck on windows 10 not by choice but by Microsoft's requirements. Also got tired of all the telemetry and asked myself why should I go through all this process of removing all that stuff and wondered if the OS was even worth having at that point.
I bought an Acer computer with no HDD but I stuck in an SSD and loaded windows 7 which it had before and still has the sticker with product key. During OS load it asked for key and promptly said it was invalid. PC wasn't much but that $100 SSD sure was! Is there a way to use the original key? (The 25.character one)
@@CyberCPU The version of 7 64 I installed was Pro not Home that's why the key on the sticker didn't work. I used Rufus and installed home. It installed but now it won't let me install any web browser or even connect to the Internet to windows update and all the drivers are in as well as SP1. All via USB. Internet worked before. Today I downloaded another 7 64 home and installed it as an upgrade. Didn't get rid of the problem. Next thing I do will be format the SSD with easus partition master and try one more time. If that fails screw it it's only an Acer aspire x1930 that cost me $2.50 on auction it included an HP 10" digital picture frame brand new. The Acer didn't have a HDD so I broke out one of my new 1 TB ssd's.
@CyberCPU Tech - I will not be going forward to win 11. Of course I will move everything over to linux that I can but I need win or mac for Adobe products. Is there any possibility of running server products that would have all the AI and spying removed that will run win64 programs on the desktop? Now, if they're not removing that crap from the server products then I think its time to turn out the lights.
I have a hard time hearing voices, I always enable closed caption, voice enactments, if possible. I love Window's Live Captions, I use it on every video I watch on my PC. It really helps with live streams, it's way better then TH-cam's auto CC. Windows AI filters out the "umms", the "uhhhs", and other filler sounds, that other auto CC's don't. It makes makes following what they are saying so much easier. Also, I preferred the Win11 audio, even though the audio quality is way way worse. All I heard was his voice. I didn't have to concentrate on filtering out other sounds so I could hear what he is saying. I hope they enable that feature for outgoing audio. It would really help on videos like this, were the main thing is what the presenter is saying.
I have a PC that I built it has Copilot. It is fully operational I have not really messed with until today when I saw this video. I did try to disable it when I first saw it but could not fins an option. I have the 23H2 currently installed so it may not work after the update.
After years and years of using Windows....a few weeks ago, I decided to make the switch to Linux as I recently learnt there are ways to game nowadays in that OS. And its great!!!!...Now...Only tested a few games and I am still kinda at the learning process, but man......I dont think im gonna ever go back, especially with allthis survilliance crap we getting on Windows on each release. BTW.....I ve been watching ur channel for long, and even tho i changed OS, I will continue to do so, u know, just for curiosity and see how deep the rabbit hole its gonna turn out in the end. Also, would be great if u could make Linux reviews as well not only for gaming but for general stuff like u already do for windows.
Linux gaming is the main challenge. First I was running Bnet/WoW in Steam Compatibility but that broke in an update. Now I'm on Bottles (tried Lutris also, usual) GE Proton 9-5 container, it works really well. I'll likely play other games later some BG3, D4 etc. I'm happy with Nobara KDE right now but I've distro hopped in the past a lot. I was playing the same game(s) under Manjaro a couple years back, that was fine too. Most common thing to break on the backend are the game launchers, bnet one broke last 2 years ago, which put me back with 10/11 as dual boot. Am hoping to just stay, ext4 is a great file system, can still access my NTFS files, even plug in old NAS if I wanted (20TB HDD and 2 2TB NVMEs don't really need to worry about storage as much anymore, have a bunch of HDDs around here too for backup. Right now, I'm happy 12900KF 4090, don't think I need to go back, both the Nvidia and AMD GPU rigs are working great for everything. I'm stable with each system, which is what I always wanted from a user experience. Everything open source exists, Office (Libre, Open etc), Kdenlive, OBS, GIMP, not much need to go back unless something exists in Windows that doesn't work well, but that gap is closing. I don't play Fortnite, so I think I can stay Linux.
Screen captures every 2 seconds, that's just fantastic for the Space and Defence industry and Chinese hackers too. I can see professional engineering software, CAD/CAM, analysis etc being released to run on Linux soon the way MS is going, large companies requiring security will start demanding it. MS is about as unprofessional and unworkable as you can get, their decision makers are clearly living in an alternate reality, I've yet to find a serious use for AI (or patten recognition it's not intelligence) and as for an OS without a start menu, insanity?
not into the ai stuff but 24h2 fixed the uwp/winui3 apps(including system parts like taskbar) for me. they were so laggy before on integrated gpus such as laptops before
This is sort of a tangent: Are there ATX motherboards available that would take an Intel NPC-included chip? (Whatever the model number of a chip like that is.) I was kind of thinking that the NPC part of a desktop would be in the graphics card, but I guess that isn't the case?
I am also only on Windows 10 systems. About this AI stuff and RECALL, I know it takes that special computer requirements for Windows 11. Though, I do notice now that my Windows 10 system has COPILOT running on the system. By clicking on my lower right corner ICON it brings up a COPILOT feature to start asking questions to it. There is no RECALL on Windows 10 so far like Windows 11 has. I discovered the COPILOT feature couple weeks ago by accidently clicking on that ICON to see what it did. I will definitely not go to Linux. I am too old to start learning new systems even though I have been doing software for many years - just never did Linux. I think Windows 10 will work quite a while even after October 2025. Anyway, thanks for the video. Taake care.
If Linux just improve their game a little and stop with all the Geeky CLI shit people will start moving over. The question is will the Geeks want to give up their mystical Dark Arts ?
i like the one feature where the ai makes a render of your sketch, that one is actually awesome. that's the only one that makes sense and is genuinely good

I agree. I have been building my own PCs since the mid 1980's. Used every MS OS since MS DOS 1.1. Microsoft ONLY reacts to users when their quarterly earnings change to the negative. It seems that MS is marketing to a different crowd. One that likes all the cutesy bells and whistles.
@@M7829-f7q That's odd. Microsoft reported negative quarterly earnings in the 4th Quarter of 2022. So they will now react to users? The decline was due to foreign exchange rates over which they have no control and diluted earnings. I guess I don't care how or why they had negative quarterly earnings as long as they react to us, the users.
can you imagine if you bought a new pc for windows 11 only to find out a year later that you needed to buy a new computer for windows 11 npu edition?

Get ready for every employer to put Windows Recall on their employees computer so they can have AI monitor and analyze their work
Kind of hard to have AI monitor and analyze my work as an underground mining engineer when there's no wifi, no computers, no cellphone signals, no cable. no fiber, no toilets. Hell even compasses spin around and around when held in your hand. (They do work when placed on the ground.)

I've been a Microsoft DOS/Windows user since the late 1980s.
None of the computers in our household is compatible with Windows 11.
It would cost a fortune to replace the 3 PCs and 1 laptop we have. (We're retired)
I've started trials of various flavours of Linux in preparation for October 2025...
Hardware doesn't last forever but even then your options under Linux are much better. If a motherboard dies, you can pop the HDD/SSD out, put it in another machine and have it just run without re-activation problems. You can replace with a second hand machine or other older generation hardware saving money. Moving away from Windows makes lots of things simpler and more reliable.
@@hansmatos2504 I'm currently looking at Ubuntu, Mint, Pop OS & KDE Neon (maybe others)
I have a spare 250GB drive that I've configured as four Ext4 partitions, so I can easily boot different distros for comparison.
My use case involves programming in C++ for an open source project, so I will be checking out alternatives for the excellent Visual Studio IDE. I currently run unit tests for GCC and Clang under CLI Ubuntu on WCL.
My wife uses her PC for company accounting and online store management.
It would be best if we have the same distro on each machine for simplicity.
We also have a mini PC that we have been using as a 'backup server' and Plex media centre. This will need some research to see how we can support backup utilities.
At the moment we backup from our PCs to the server using Iperius Backup (Windows only), with Backblaze (limited Linux support) running 24/7 to backup to the cloud.
@@hansmatos2504 OMG you're not the typical Linux geek! Here, have this helmet and bulletproof vest, you'll need it. (Those Arch guys are *everywhere* )
I've never used Linux but listening to Linux users talk about it leaves me with the conclusion that it's pretty much a chaotic mess of compromised functionality. The number of versions and compatibility workarounds needed make it less of an OS and more of a constant time sink. Linux does not make me feel better.
@musicbro8225 When I have tried Linux in the past and had a problem, a search for solutions often brings up several answers that are incompatible with my distro, and not only that, are incomprehensible, as they require in-depth knowledge of the guts of the Linux OS, which would require yet more research. All when I'm just trying to get work done. I'm a C++ programmer by trade, but I'm more interested in getting work done than fiddling with the low-level details of Linux.
I absolutely will NEVER trust Microsoft ever again with hardware.

The windows recall is braking all the privecy laws
Not if you agreed to the Windows terms of service most people don’t read.
Windows Recall can be deactivated by accessing Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. As the feature can be easily turned off, I do not see why it would violate privacy laws.
@@Eternal_Tech You really believe that bs from Microsoft that the data will only be stored locally? It should be off by default. Yes it violates privacy laws. A hacker would have a field day with this garbage.
@@Eternal_Tech Typically not true for an employee working on a business device provided by the employer though.
It may not be always Microsoft that's held liable and legally responsible for violating privacy laws in many countries and cases, but Windows Recall will most certainly become a major legal issue in various ways varying from market to market, from country to country, and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
There will be a foreseeable flood of intentional and unintentional violations of local laws simply resulting from using the Windows Recall feature, and that's not even getting into all the possible threats regarding hacking and other forms of (cyber-) attacks on the devices running Windows Recall on them.
I agree. Recall is a no go.
Starts with a "sticker" then when there are sufficient purchases to use the new premium features, they will start charging a monthly fee.
Obviously, if you spend 1k on a PC to take advantage of these features, another $10-20 a month as a subscription would be fine...right
- When will the EU ban this and force MS to disable it by default?

With the direction M$ is taking right now, and keeping in mind their previous fuckups over the years...
Yup, you're on the right track my pal. It's best to switch now -- as painful as adapting might be -- and never looking back. After all, luckily we do have ways to run windows programs under linux when/if needed
After win10 I am on to Linux myself. Already testing it out on a old laptop ;)
Making the move to Ubuntu Studio and Linux Mint LMDE6. Win 10 is my last MS OS. Been on since 3.1 as well. At the end of the road.
From Windows 3.1 to 10, what caused you to refuse free Windows 11?
Ms can stick AI , app store , and office where the sun don't shine. I just need to edit music.
The audio clarity thing, there are plenty of programs that you can already do that with, without needing a special AI part of your cpu.
Absolutely. A non-feature if you ask me.
Two things:
1 - A system that literally records EVERYTHING you do, to send it to a database, to literally sell that info online? Holy shit, no. My PERSONAL computer is not so personal anymore. And I know Microsoft, they will do a way to enable that feature on systems that "doesn't support AI" and they WILL keep enabling it without telling you every time you disable it. Frankly, Linux never looked so bright.
2 - Microsoft wants to be Apple. They want to force you on new hardware, they want to force you do use the system the way THEY think you should, etc. Again, I'm already messing around with Linux Mint to try and activate SCrivener, which is the software I use to work, once I'm able to do it on my laptop, my PC will be updated to Linux too. And I doubt I would ever go back to Windows, because it's clear that Microsoft wants to force these on us, a simple example of that is the fact that Windows 10 is losing support next year, but there's no new Windows version, only 11, and the Windows 11 is getting those updates no one asked for.
Holy shit.
Should buy a roll of them stickers and stick them on all the Mac computers at different stores. Maybe save one for my wife, she remembers everything.
The video dude misrepresented the product boiling it down to the concept of a ridiculous sticker. Problem is, people fell for that line.
He was using unfinished BETA Windows, not a ready operating system.
It's like saying I have all the pre-parts of the car, why can't the car run?? It's because you don't REALLY have all the parts (like you think you do) and it's not put together yet.
When it's together, then we will put our sticker on the window which is a guarantee it works and it's for sale. After that time, you can mimic it all you want.
If we accept that in the automotive world, why do we disregard it in the computer world?
You open Keepass and recall takes a screenshot off all your passwords, best keylogger ever^^

I went from dual boot to just Nobara after Recall. I would say it's more about leaving and you can spend time after to figure out what you like. I've used a lot over the years Mint, Manjaro, ArcoLinux, Debian, Fedora & Nobara were my favorites. Environments you can experiment but I like KDE>LXQt (lightweight)>XFCE, not into heavier (felt Ubuntu was a bit heavy on Gnome). You can add swap and download freeware, it's worth experimenting with.
microsoft trolling us with these requirements 😭
Windows 11 LTSC exist
What are you talking about dropping Windows forever? Why?
The first thing you need to do is uninstall recall
Or just don't enable Recall in the settings. Either way, a competent tech can tell you everything Recall and more for over a decade now. Recall is only providing a timeline of your PC activity., something that log files in your computer having been doing for decades.
I am sure Microsoft is making this exclusive for now because these features are half baked and will require a ton of work to get fixed up. They will probably make it available to PCs that technically meet the requirements later.
EU will put a huge speed stop for Microsoft Recall "feature" in Europe. It's not going to be allowed for sure.
The other annoyance is having to use bypas scripts to update Win11 just because TPM and secure boot are turned off in BIOS because you don't have any use for these features.
Thank god, my computer is a custom build , so no AI recall, bitlocker etc. Good one Microsoft. I am happy...😁

@@robertjames4908 What did you want that Microsoft took away? Or what did you want on your system that Microsoft is trying to take away? I'm trying to figure that out.
You're not getting AI recall unless you buy special Hardware built for it so that's out and a non issue.
If you have Windows home, you don't have BitLocker, and if you do have BitLocker in Windows Pro you can either not use it or uncheck the box it and it uninstalls. So that's another potential none issue.
If you want privacy and no updates then turn off the background intelligent transfer service and the Windows update services with a simple checkbox, and phoning home becomes a potential nonissue issue too.
If you don't believe in allowing Microsoft to take Telemetry data which is none identifiable usage and helps Microsoft to plan for what people want in the next operating system then that's your choice.
Did you know that in Windows Pro, there's a group policy editor and a local security policy editor app. In the group policy editor alone, there are 4,225 checklist options where you can turn Windows basically inside out and have it as locked down as you want, replace parts of the UI and change how it operates, what appears and what doesn't what is clickable and what isn't.
I don't think Linux has anything to match the breath or depth of the group policy editor. Also in each option of the editor there is a description of what that feature does and doesn't do. That's true customization.
I don't give a flying "f" about Ai on my PC. I don't need Ai to tell me stuff rather than figure it out for myself which is half the reason I enjoy using it. As soon as we all start relying on Ai for everything the human race is stuffed.
Recall should stay in the theaters!
They will probably start charging a yearly or monthly subscription fee for AI features for non-copilot+ PCs that meet the minimum system requirements.
I don't need AI. I am already smarter than AI. I guess there are only meat in bread people that don't know what regedit is on TH-cam.
They'll start charging AI subscription fee for all PC's, regardless of "compliance" . It's just a matter of time.

This sounds like a conspiracy between Microsoft and PC makers. Microsoft has gotten on my last nerve.
I have an older Acer Aspire which runs Win 10 great, but it is not built for Win 11. At end of life for Win 10, I will keep using 10 until I can no longer do so due to exploits or whatever. I tried to put Linux on the laptop, but it will not install even using Ventoy or even burning the ISO to a USB with Rufus. It runs through the installation until the end and then stops. So, I am thinking I could use a VM on my Win 10 and use Linux that way. Don't know if this will work or not.
My desktop uses Win 11, but if they try to make me use Recall on my Win 11, I will revolt.
Ya, Microsoft also said Win 10 would be the last ISO, but then they made Win 11, So, don't trust Microsoft.
Microsoft just couldn't leave well enough alone with Win 7 by making Win 8! Then they made Win 10 which I like very much, but then they made Win 11 which has turned me off to AI and anything Microsoft does. I will never have to worry about Recall or AI. If I must, I will switch to Linux and Microsoft's market share will continue to fall.
Tens of thousands of people use older PCs with older OS distros. Most of them cannot afford a new PC in order to keep up with Microsoft and the PC makers. Just disgusting!
Copilot+ PCs require an onboard NPU capable of 40 TOPS or more. It's not just a sticker. CPUs with NPUs meeting that threshold are just around the corner or rolling out now, starting with the new Snapdragon X Elite. That all said, I don't care about all this AI stuff right now or anytime soon.

In 1990 we had Arnold Schwarzenegger's Total Recall
22 years later (2012) there was a remake of Total Recall, only worse
But then 2024 came around, and this time we're facing the worst of them all: Windows (Copilot+) Recall
Seems like not getting Microsoft’s AI features on my home built PC is a feature not a negative.
TBF to Microsoft, they've said the Recall feature will be very customizable, including just turning it off. Personally, I do get why being able to search for something I saw weeks ago but can't remember where could be useful, but I also get the privacy concerns, especially if the PC is compromised. Also, right now the CoPilot Plus features require one of the new Qualcomm processors but Nvidia announced at Computex that they're working with Microsoft to make sure folks with RTX GPUs will be able to use the features at some point down the line, not to mention both AMD and Intel have said they'll have processors with the required NPU spec out sometime this year.
That would be great honestly.

Please help me. How to install Windows 7 64bit to Acer aspire es 15 es1-533, I need this OS, but can't install. Just win 10. Thank you.
I can understand how Microsoft came to develop a feature like Recall. It's actually the natural outcome of integrating AI into Windows. For that AI to be able to help you properly, it needs to know everything about you. So it has to spy on you, for your benefit. Now Microsoft could have done this in the background, and leave it there, never letting the user directly access all that information, but they didn't. Recall is just another way to access the database that an AI assistant already has to build. By presenting it to users as an useful feature they might be more willing to let the AI use all that disk space. I don't think that Microsoft expected the backlash they got for this.
From what I have learned about Windows Recall, it is not a big deal. First, it can be easily deactivated by accessing Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. Second, the snapshots that it takes are encrypted. Third, the snapshots can be deleted at any time by the user. Fourth, if the user chooses to enable this feature, the amount of storage devoted to the snapshots can be changed.
So the company mandating I make an account with them and mandating they get to hold a copy of the encryption keys to my computer is telling me the screenshots my computer is taking will be safe because they are only on my local encrypted drive? Legal experts out there. If the government demands microsoft turn over the encryption keys to my pc do I have standing to object, cuz the way I read it, I don't. They likely can take anything they want from a 3rd party that you 'voluntarily' turned over to them.
I don't have the required PC to run AI? Oh no....anyway.
You said it! 👍
thank god 🙏
Masses are easily programmable… well good portion of them are. Just scare them to the point… “either our way or you have to sacrifice”…majority will easily cave in do what they are told.
From what I have learned about Windows Recall, it is not a big deal. First, it can be easily deactivated by accessing Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. Second, the snapshots that it takes are encrypted. Third, the snapshots can be deleted at any time by the user. Fourth, if the user chooses to enable this feature, the amount of storage devoted to the snapshots can be changed.
Just made the leap to Linux. Microsoft can keep the AI crapware. Mind you most people can not afford all that stuff. Some are still stuck on windows 10 not by choice but by Microsoft's requirements.
Also got tired of all the telemetry and asked myself why should I go through all this process of removing all that stuff and wondered if the OS was even worth having at that point.
I bought an Acer computer with no HDD but I stuck in an SSD and loaded windows 7 which it had before and still has the sticker with product key. During OS load it asked for key and promptly said it was invalid. PC wasn't much but that $100 SSD sure was! Is there a way to use the original key? (The 25.character one)
BTW that is an Acer AX1930-UR10P, which was when new, a $500 halfway decent machine. Maybe less than halfway....yeah
You should have an option to do a phone activation. That should work.
@@CyberCPU The version of 7 64 I installed was Pro not Home that's why the key on the sticker didn't work. I used Rufus and installed home. It installed but now it won't let me install any web browser or even connect to the Internet to windows update and all the drivers are in as well as SP1. All via USB. Internet worked before. Today I downloaded another 7 64 home and installed it as an upgrade. Didn't get rid of the problem. Next thing I do will be format the SSD with easus partition master and try one more time. If that fails screw it it's only an Acer aspire x1930 that cost me $2.50 on auction it included an HP 10" digital picture frame brand new. The Acer didn't have a HDD so I broke out one of my new 1 TB ssd's.
@CyberCPU Tech - I will not be going forward to win 11. Of course I will move everything over to linux that I can but I need win or mac for Adobe products. Is there any possibility of running server products that would have all the AI and spying removed that will run win64 programs on the desktop? Now, if they're not removing that crap from the server products then I think its time to turn out the lights.
You will probably be better off running desktop software with those components striped out.
There will definitely be ways.
I have a hard time hearing voices, I always enable closed caption, voice enactments, if possible. I love Window's Live Captions, I use it on every video I watch on my PC. It really helps with live streams, it's way better then TH-cam's auto CC. Windows AI filters out the "umms", the "uhhhs", and other filler sounds, that other auto CC's don't. It makes makes following what they are saying so much easier.
Also, I preferred the Win11 audio, even though the audio quality is way way worse. All I heard was his voice. I didn't have to concentrate on filtering out other sounds so I could hear what he is saying. I hope they enable that feature for outgoing audio. It would really help on videos like this, were the main thing is what the presenter is saying.
I have a PC that I built it has Copilot. It is fully operational I have not really messed with until today when I saw this video. I did try to disable it when I first saw it but could not fins an option. I have the 23H2 currently installed so it may not work after the update.
After years and years of using Windows....a few weeks ago, I decided to make the switch to Linux as I recently learnt there are ways to game nowadays in that OS. And its great!!!!...Now...Only tested a few games and I am still kinda at the learning process, but man......I dont think im gonna ever go back, especially with allthis survilliance crap we getting on Windows on each release. BTW.....I ve been watching ur channel for long, and even tho i changed OS, I will continue to do so, u know, just for curiosity and see how deep the rabbit hole its gonna turn out in the end. Also, would be great if u could make Linux reviews as well not only for gaming but for general stuff like u already do for windows.
Linux gaming is the main challenge. First I was running Bnet/WoW in Steam Compatibility but that broke in an update. Now I'm on Bottles (tried Lutris also, usual) GE Proton 9-5 container, it works really well. I'll likely play other games later some BG3, D4 etc. I'm happy with Nobara KDE right now but I've distro hopped in the past a lot. I was playing the same game(s) under Manjaro a couple years back, that was fine too. Most common thing to break on the backend are the game launchers, bnet one broke last 2 years ago, which put me back with 10/11 as dual boot. Am hoping to just stay, ext4 is a great file system, can still access my NTFS files, even plug in old NAS if I wanted (20TB HDD and 2 2TB NVMEs don't really need to worry about storage as much anymore, have a bunch of HDDs around here too for backup. Right now, I'm happy 12900KF 4090, don't think I need to go back, both the Nvidia and AMD GPU rigs are working great for everything. I'm stable with each system, which is what I always wanted from a user experience. Everything open source exists, Office (Libre, Open etc), Kdenlive, OBS, GIMP, not much need to go back unless something exists in Windows that doesn't work well, but that gap is closing. I don't play Fortnite, so I think I can stay Linux.
Really all left for windows users is Windows LTSC or they should switch to Linux as soon as possible!
Screen captures every 2 seconds, that's just fantastic for the Space and Defence industry and Chinese hackers too. I can see professional engineering software, CAD/CAM, analysis etc being released to run on Linux soon the way MS is going, large companies requiring security will start demanding it.
MS is about as unprofessional and unworkable as you can get, their decision makers are clearly living in an alternate reality, I've yet to find a serious use for AI (or patten recognition it's not intelligence) and as for an OS without a start menu, insanity?
Or never let their computer be connected to the grid.
I think this will be a war.
not into the ai stuff but 24h2 fixed the uwp/winui3 apps(including system parts like taskbar) for me. they were so laggy before on integrated gpus such as laptops before
Can your NPU work with an open source AI?
i herd of it being a hard ware chip and if you pc doesn't have it witch it wont unless its newer it wont work
Can you even spell words? I think you have rhinopharyngitis.
This is sort of a tangent: Are there ATX motherboards available that would take an Intel NPC-included chip? (Whatever the model number of a chip like that is.) I was kind of thinking that the NPC part of a desktop would be in the graphics card, but I guess that isn't the case?
It is the case. These are meat in bread people. Watch LTT, or Gamers Nexus.
I am also only on Windows 10 systems. About this AI stuff and RECALL, I know it takes that special computer requirements for Windows 11.
Though, I do notice now that my Windows 10 system has COPILOT running on the system. By clicking on my lower right corner ICON it brings up a COPILOT feature to start asking questions to it. There is no RECALL on Windows 10 so far like Windows 11 has.
I discovered the COPILOT feature couple weeks ago by accidently clicking on that ICON to see what it did.
I will definitely not go to Linux. I am too old to start learning new systems even though I have been doing software for many years - just never did Linux. I think Windows 10 will work quite a while even after October 2025.
Anyway, thanks for the video. Taake care.
If Linux just improve their game a little and stop with all the Geeky CLI shit people will start moving over. The question is will the Geeks want to give up their mystical Dark Arts ?
Don’t know why everybody thinks you need the command line for Linux.
You don’t.
Get Ubuntu, Mint, or Fedora. You simply don’t need it.
Somehow once I seen a windows 10 PC having a Copilot icon on the right. Or maybe that PC had windows 10 theme mode. IDK.
i like the one feature where the ai makes a render of your sketch, that one is actually awesome.
that's the only one that makes sense and is genuinely good
Fedora 40 is the best place to start your Linux journey in 2024. Windows user will like it. Timely updates is one of it's nice things out of many
Hey Sir, why not you do a Fedora 40 installation in your channel for windows followers.
I wanted a CoPilot+ PC until I found out I didn't. Not going to miss out on anything. All the more reason to build a custom PC without the 'sticker'.
