Why screenshot instead of just enter url of site to copy? I think that would be easier since most likely the screenshot is just of a site.


I initially built this for myself, I never needed to copy entire landing page before I just need help with components.


Yeah but it doesn’t have to be, which I think is a huge part of the appeal of these tools. Inkscape, figma, hell even PowerPoint for mocking a simple form or something


In a system where everyone breaks the law (because there are so many) and everyone is spied on (so you can prove anyone did some sort of “ crime”) you can now coerce anyone you like if you get to make the decision of who to charge (like governments do) which is useful for silencing descent or opposition.


The tradeoff is security and privacy. Important things. If you click the eye icon next to a password, or paste a secret to an env var you are now exploitable. If you have something you want to keep private or shred this is another place to delete (or forget to do so). So there are plenty of anti-benefits to this superpower.


I understand. Nobody* will care.

People already have traded privacy and a comprehensive personality profile for silly streams of video, photos and text on social media for the past 20 years. Imagine what happens, when you get something immensely useful out of it.

Today, nobody will work with you, if you are unable to manage E-Mail. In the future, nobody will work with you, if you can't properly use the time information dimension that this technology enables. You will simply look demented by comparison.


If that is the case then like anything else let’s make it, well… good. And that includes making it safe, secure and privacy focused.

A good delineation is your work PC will be spied on (assume anyone in the org can see what you are doing, even before this tech).

Opting out of it on personal devices is fine. You wont look like an idiot or be refused work I am sure.


This is another nail in the coffin for me, as a life long Windows user. My next install is Linux single boot.


I said on HN just a few days ago:

“The only good thing about Recall is that it has been the definitive decider of moving away from Microsoft permanently because for them to create such a ‘feature’ shows a complete lack of care about people’s private data - they’ll be leaving a huge jackpot prize for anyone who breaks into a system.”

And only 4 days later, it is shown.


I've just installed and configured KDE Neon Plasma 6 and I'm really liking it a lot. Feels closer to Windows than my other Ubuntu and Xubuntu installs.

Just my 2p


Found a fellow Brit


^ probably one of the top 5 unsubstantial things fellow countrymen say to eachother on HN


the coffin is nothing but nails at this point.


good, it'll be more likely to sink when we all collectively chuck it in the lake


I agree, not clickbait.

It probably needs a heading or something to make it clear it is a summary of another blog.

I was a bit confused I assumed this was your blog post at first.

Maybe because I am on mobile there is some missing context about what this is.


I regret not getting one but then if I got one I’d probably regret getting it!


The “Jagged Little Pill” song springs to mind.


I don’t regret buying a house but I assumed I would. The great house price crash was waiting for me to buy, so I thought… still it is a shallow win to see others suffering with rent prices.


I do regret it, wish I'd bought a condo. Lawns are bogus and I don't need 4 external walls


The lawn is there so that no one else uses that space. It keeps your neighbours at a distance.


So sell your house and buy that condo


I was avoiding living on the edge all my life, so it doesn’t hit that hard, but yeah, all housing markets are insane atm. I feel for those who only start living nowadays.


Not the good RTO (Rostered Time Off)


Could also source this from images uploaded to Google etc?
