Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency (www.youtube.com)

TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

And it's why I, as a self-respecting SWE, refuse to apply to big tech jobs. Yeah, I could get paid a lot more, but it's not worth it for the work culture. My current org seems to respect my opinions and values, and that's worth a lot more than money.

Good for you! I'm still waiting for the day the tech world unionizes and push back on the recent horrendous decisions

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I don't think the whole tech world needs to unionize, but I think there's a strong argument for the gaming industry. But in general, there should be stronger protections for those who choose to unionize. IIRC, you can't be fired for attempting to unionize, but that doesn't seem to be enforced in practice.
