Concerned about Microsoft Windows 11 Recall? You should be.

Recall allows Microsoft’s Windows 11 Copilot+ devices to screenshot every action a person takes on their PC.

What can you do? Switching to Linux is the clear answer, but some don't know what distro to try.

DistroSea.com is a website that lets you run and test 60+ Linux distributions straight from your web browser.

Have fun!

😂😏 from a generator manual

one hundred internet points if you can successfully guess what this circuit does, and how.

three hints:

1: it's pretty weird.

2. the inputs and outputs are no more than a couple tens of kilohertz (and are not a fixed frequency - the values shown in the sim below are arbitrary)

3: it only works in a real circuit and if you simulate this you will not see it doing the weird thing.

UPDATE: we have a winner. solution is here: https://chaos.social/@gsuberland/113921571918206983

I'm not even sure how to properly describe this. "nonlinear modulating low-pass filter", I guess? the core of it is that the MOSFET is a big power FET with a ton of Cgs. combined with the 220k resistor, you get a low-pass filter. the channel A voltage is adjusted to keep the MOSFET sub-threshold. except the really evil part of this is that the MOSFET's gate capacitance is dependent on Vds. so channel B modulates Vds, adjusting the filter's cutoff frequency.
