Heya guys!

Finally.

After 8 years, 5 months and 9 days I finally hit the milestone that I would never have thought to hit in the beginning.

It's been a wild ride on here, there are so many people around here I'd like to thank for giving me such a great time and so much joy, hours of debates, talk, chat, chit-chat, friendship, help, giving help, ...

Neowin was, is and will for quite some time be the living room on the internet for me.

When I open my browser, Neowin opens and that's where I usually stick for some time, then move on to Youtube and the rest of my browsing.

90% of the time I have a Neowin tab open and whilst not all is rosy around here, it's way too awesome to say good bye.

I found it's usually phases in which I'm fed up and I keep coming back.

Not to devaluate my own critique, but I just love this place.

I really don't know what special things to do for Neowin, apart from maybe, yes, there is something I could do.

If you guys want, I can make a small collage of my city and post it on here.

If it wasn't fall time, I'd probably make something more special outside, but we can always save some more exciting things for the next milestone. (Y)

Before and After:

As a side effect I'm not top poster #111. :)

Not too long ago I celebrated being top #200 poster. :D

In fact, this is just a little more than 11 months ago, and boy, I really got more active in the past two years.

I remember me having something around 2-3k-ish posts on here in 2010, now this year in January I believe I cracked the 7k mark, cracked the 8k mark about 2 months later.

Now whilst it took me considerable more time to get to 10k than I thought, I actually wanted to combine 10k with my 8 year anniversary, I think it's better late than never.

Yes, this remark was obligatory. Not that there's anything wrong with having high post count, mind you. Keep going!

Haha, indeed.

Thank you and happy birthday to you! :D

    • Edifier's popular R1280Ts bookshelf speaker can be a nice upgrade for your PC desktop audio

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Edifier's popular R1280Ts bookshelf speaker can be a nice upgrade for your PC desktop audio by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a very nice discount on Sony's high-resolution SS-CS5M2 speakers, which are currently on sale for just $178. It packs the rather rare super tweeter that offers an additional level of clarity and "airy"-ness which a tweeter cannot provide. It's a passive speaker though which means it will require external amplification, which will cost extra. Let's say though that you have a budget of under $150 but still want a decent-sounding speaker that's active. The Edifier 1280Ts can help in this regard, as the unit is currently at a decent price of $130 (purchase link under the specs table down below). While you will not get deep sub-bass from the 1280Ts, you should get clearer vocals and highs like cymbals than a cheaper satellite-based 2.1 system. Obviously the soundstage and imaging will also improve due to the better reproduction of highs. As mentioned above, the Edifier R1280Ts is active and so does not need a separate amplifier, as it's a powered system with its own amplification. A great thing about this model is that you can add a separate active subwoofer to it too using the "sub out" option, which essentially acts like an LFE. This way, you can add in the missing deep bass. The technical specifications of the Edifier R1280Ts are given in the table below: Specification Value Total Output Power 42W RMS (21W + 21W) Driver Units 4-inch mid-range/bass driver + 0.5-inch silk diaphragm treble driver Frequency Response 52Hz – 20kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) ≥85dBA Input Sensitivity Line In1: R/L: 500±50mV Line In2: R/L: 700±50mV Inputs Dual RCA inputs Outputs Sub Out port for external subwoofer Get it at the link below: Edifier R1280Ts Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Stereo Active Near Field Monitors with Subwoofer Line Out: $129.99 (Sold by Edifier Online Store, Shipped by Amazon US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

      Appreciate the focus on UI performance, but this is going the wrong way. Instead of optimizing performance, coding to lower latency, etc. this is just throwing horsepower. This is lazy.

    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      I agree, but that's the popular online opinion about them, so I followed it. I do think they have their point, no matter how combative they sound most of the time.

      M$ can bring whatever the hell it wants, and then guess what's not installed in my Mac.
