Awesome conference call. Godspeed all and see ya at Vanishing Point 2.

Come visit unFiction & http://forums.unfiction.com/forums for all your ARGing needs. hehehehe. Check out http://www.ARGN.com & signup for their email list to find out about the newest ARGs and when they start. They also have weekly (or so) podcasts about the ARGworld.

2007 ARGFest will be March 2-4th in San Francisco. Incredible lineup of ARG Puppet Masters (including folks from 42) and meet the faces behind the nicks of other ARGers. Not to mention fun, games, prizes.

Here is more information at the wiki: http://wiki.argfestocon.com/index.php?title=Main_Page

Sort of doubt there will be a Vanishing Point 2. 42 Entertainment doesn't repeat. They like to re-invent the game over and over again in unique ways. Quite a challenge for the PMs and for the players. And we LIKE it!!!

first post here :D

well i got home from work today and got a little package from marden kane saying that i was a potential 2nd prize winner. seeing as i've never won a contest ever, i wasn't exactly convinced that this was real. so i decided to hop onto neowin, as i lurked on these forums frequently while trying to solve the puzzles. from reading the posts here, i'm now convinced that i did win and i'm pretty excited. i'll be mailing my affidavit and w-9 form back to mk tomorrow :)

Well I know I haven't won the first place prize or grand prize. But I'm still holding out hope for the other prizes since they get sent through regular mail and my mail gets redirected so it takes an extra week or so for it to get to me. First place is delivered via DHL, which would not have been redirected, so I would of been notified about it already, but no.

    • I like Tidal, but it still does not control devices from the mobile/app and still no surround support. And yeah re: above comment I still get a lot of network errors and I am on a 4/4 Gbit Fiber connection.
    • Aren`t "security features" and "AI model that can see your screen" a tad diametric!
    • Samsung, Amazon extend 990 PRO 2TB NVMe SSD deal beyond Prime Day 2026 by Sayan Sen Recently, we had Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales wherein there were several great deals including on SSDs. One of those discounted components was the Samsung 990 PRO SSD as the 2TB variant of it was selling for $370, a very good price after a long time. Although that deal was supposed to expire today, Amazon has now extended that sale further (purchase link under the specs table down below). The 990 PRO is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD and still one of the fastest drives available today for under $400. Speaking of fast, sequential reads and writes are rated at 7450 MB/s and 6900 MB/s, respectively. The random throughputs for reads and writes are 1400K IOPS and 1550K IOPS, respectively. The 990 PRO is based on Samsung's 7th Gen V-NAND flash, and it too is TLC. It packs 2 gigs of LPDDR4 DRAM cache, which helps the random performance. The endurance rating for this is 1200 TBW (terabytes written), which should be sufficient for most users. The Samsung 990 PRO is compatible with the PlayStation 5, but if you are going to use the 990 PRO on a PC, check out the Samsung Magician app that lets you track your drive's health, update its firmware, customize various settings, and more. The technical specs of the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen 4.0 x4, NVMe 2.0 NAND Flash Samsung V-NAND TLC Controller Samsung In-house Controller Cache Memory Samsung 2GB Low Power DDR4 SDRAM Sequential Read Speed Up to 7,450 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 6,900 MB/s Random Read (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,400,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD32) Up to 1,550,000 IOPS Random Read (4KB, QD1) Up to 22,000 IOPS Random Write (4KB, QD1) Up to 80,000 IOPS Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Reliability (MTBF) 1.5 Million Hours Endurance 1,200 TBW (Total Bytes Written) Get it at the link below: Samsung 990 PRO SSD 2TB NVMe SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM): $369.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Glad im on the right boat. Tidal has lots of issues in terms of app and music mix, its worst than spot but its honest. Spot algo is very tendentious and they pess less to artists, so im comfortable with the tidal errors, for now.
