Really need to work on which skins are shown off for Neowin viewers (mostly directed at Stardock/Wincust mods/admins).

Here's one your typical Neowinian forum troll would be more likely to like, and wasn't given a thread.

Works great with forced coloring options too. :)

That looks like a crappy linux theme.

Ha, I guess I kind of set myself up there...well to each their own I guess. But if you're judging it by a thumbnail with the weird background, you're doing yourself a disservice. It adopts the background into itself, if that makes any sense...

that looks like a really nice theme style (dragon). What wallpaper is that on the background?

Here ya go

I was just kidding. The dragon looks cool I hate Luna.

I'm not really interested in what the trolls, I just like to present a broad range of skins for people to see.

I had to look back because I really thought I had posted that skin, because it is a great one. I will put it up tomorrow morning.

I think most *normal* people would find the Dragon skin to be pretty cool. As for the people living in mom's basement who get their kicks on crapping on stuff in an effort to help them ignore that they live lives of no consequence, you'll always have them floating around using phrases like "fugly". We wouldn't want to deprive them of their ability to do that as it's probably the only thing they have going for them. :)

You are right of course, but like your post, I can't say I feel baiting trolls to make a few people who would like said skins, more aware of them. Chances are they'd see em on Wincustomize anyways :) Not that its appropriate here, there are simply too many disgruntled individuals looking to rain on parades, but there is something to be said about building an image. /shrug.

Yes but the difference is that I can make trolls disappear here. Neowin, as a whole, is moving forward with trying to show the basement dweller class the door. I'm sure there are "leet" sites out there just waiting for their patronage.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
