  • you don’t have to use it.

    On windows, “its optional” means somthing diffrent than on linux.

    On linux a feature like this is just a command or a toggle switch in the settings.

    Its admittedly a neat concept, I use OBS for this verry reason, to capture moments where I didnt think to press “record” beforehand. An (unprivlaged, no internet access) userland foreground app with “start/stop/delete past hour” buttons. All from the easy to understand from a glance taskbar icon.

    Sadly, we only got a few of these safety features later on because like software, people will also refuse to buy a car without seatbelts or working breaks.

    People are saying “no!” now so they dont have to say no later when its much harder to say no (when its in your home, on your pc). Microsoft plugs their ears when their customers say “it’s unsafe” and “no means no” because they want you to partake in this transaction with them reguardless of if you do.

    optionally specify these tags so I can organize the data better
    • it’s video component is nesisary (VIDEO)
    • it’s video component is summerised by a single image (STILL)
    • it’s mostly talking (COMMENTARY)
    • it’s a person talking into a camera (FACE)
    • it’s music (MUSIC)
    • it’s a square thumbnail or video (SQUARE)
    • Its a 4 by 3 thumbnail or video (4BY3)
    • high resolution video (HIRES)

    Ive been archiving for years and this looks like it may be the final clean batch I can produce. Feel free to specify other tags that may be useful and I will add them.
