User Settings → Clips → toggle it off...
Per the FAQ "Clips" is a way to Shadowplay-style record a clip from a Discord stream. On its face not the worst feature they've implemented in the last week1 but uhhhh hey guys why did you default to letting people record me without even letting me know they COULD record me?
[EDIT] to add cool and helpful further sleuthing from @CrillWave: apparently Clips has existed for awhile now but as of this chost's creation is exclusive to Nitro+ users (not to be confused with Nitro Classic users, who also do not have access to it). If you don't have Nitro+ and haven't encountered it in the wild, this random mystery option defaulting to "yes I am cool with being recorded" might be how you find out about it. But it doesn't give any context for what Clips is or how it works (I had to independently find the linked FAQ) so all you get is a mystery "I love being recorded" toggle and no further info. 👍🏽
I love (hate) how every scientific study into why seemingly no-one can sleep properly anymore ignores the giant elephant in the room: that the work schedules imposed on us by modern society aren't just unnatural, but entirely unreasonable in both the rigidity of their timing and their expected workloads
5 minutes late for work because the person you expected to pick you up never arrived and didn't communicate? you have to stay behind for 15 minutes. why?
done your assigned work for the day? no you haven't, here, have more work. hope you don't mind being as productive as ten people from a generation past and that somehow still not being enough as you make record low income!
why should we be expected to wake up earlier than our body is comfortable with? why should we be expected to commute an hour each way every day, especially if it's work that can now be done remotely? why are we expected to routinely ingest stimulants in order to just make it through the day?
it's all incredibly fucked, at every rung of the ladder. employers will bleed you dry of your limited time on this earth, and not even compensate you with enough fictional tokens to allow you to live comfortably within the confines of this system we've built. why is sharing food and shelter looked down upon? why is not being able to keep up with unreasonable demands seen as a moral failing?
why the fuck are we expected to tolerate workplace harassment and office politics? why is working smart a punishable offence; why does finding a way to automate your job land you a dismissal, rather than a promotion?
it's no fucking wonder why no-one can sleep at night.
