rockjonn Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 After venting about another site's foolishness, a friend recommended Neowin. I've registered and await discovering if this platform offers a better experience, as they say the grass might be greener here. hellowalkman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we moved to IPS until v1.3. Matt Mecham helped with the database migration 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest starting a new topic in the Hardware Hangout area to ask for suggestions. Be sure to let them know what Operating Systems you like to work with, and the general specs that you would want from a tablet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siever Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Hello, my name is Tyler. I'm trying to improve myself in all facets of my life, technical literacy and basics of programming are areas I am actively trying to learn more about. Sometimes I can't rightly explain in simple terms how I did something I managed to because I don't understand it well enough to do so. I'm not sure how detailed this introduction should be because I'm not clear on what this area is designed for, but I know if I'm not invited to somewhere from the start I should proceed cautiously. My technical level and knowledge is very basic. I'm meeting challenges as they arrive and figuring out different areas of applied knowledge as needed. That being said if I'm intruding someplace protected, please excuse my actions and if I do not meet any required requisites I can leave if necessary. If not, then again, my name is Tyler and I want learning to be a lifelong pursuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah! I had an account there too That was back in the day that several tech websites helped each other, we had a link share thing going on our main page too (you can still see it on waybackmachine in the 2002-2005 years) I think we ended up removing it when we switched designs in 2006 with our larger right side rail menu (on the main website). But we kept a few buttons of some sites for years after as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnologic Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I remember years ago, in the early 2000's in high school I had a friend who was pretty tech savvy. This would have been around the advent of msn chat and the wider population using the internet. My friend would post on these forums. As a teenager I was completely in awe that people all over the world could chat with each other and now its commmon as muck 😆. Just started upon a career change myself into software development and whilst admittedly I am a bit of a lurker, I decided I should probably start networking.
