London ... meh! So much for the middle of the country as suggested in the OP. What about any Neowin members

up in Scotland that might be interested in attending? They'll have to travel 400-500 miles or more to get there!

I'm suddenly reminded of a once popular catchy song from the 1980's by a certain Scottish pop-duo . . . !

If we tried to please everyone, it would never progress.

Yeah so screw the northerners :p (I agree something middle of the road might have been the better option though)

London is good for me in all honesty so will subscribe in to this thread.

London is the only worthwhile place to go.

Oh that'd I'd like to see...

"Hello, we are from NeoWIN and we set this place as our meeting point..."

Apple Store guy: "Oh-kaaaay........"

whistles to colleagues: "They have arrived, pick your weapons!"

Glassed Silver:mac

That would be pretty amusing to see.

In reality, you'll find much cordiality and the most you'll accomplish is changing a few Safari homepages to Neowin or splashing on some Neowin logo wallpaper. Like we did. ;)

I know most people hate the idea of going to London, but we want to try and get everyone to go! I think the 18th August would be a good date, so could we see how many people could make it on the 18th?

Not most - some.

So - who can make it on Saturday 18th August?

No point in telling us if you can't make it, we just need to see how many people could turn up on the 18th to see if it's a worthwhile date.

Hmm 18th is a feasible date. I've never ever been to London and I'm 25 or so. I've stopped in London and had to pay to have a wee (So I had to make the most of my 20p), that may or put me off ever going back to London tbh...

that's just at the london stations to stop tramps living in there!

Heh, well the plan of getting more people involved backfired. I can't make that day (or any Saturday actually, unless I get another job, so I guess I was screwed ever since it was taken out of Vortex's hands for no reason). Maybe an IRC-only one next year then?

IRC only? That'd be you and DrCheese only then

    • Chrome has history of being the browser everyone uses because Internet Explorer sucks, not realizing that Edge changed that, but people got into the habit of using Chrome. I use Brave and I've never been happier with a browser. It does what it is meant to do and gets out of the way.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
    • I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.
