Windows 7 64-bit, Alienware M14X

*screenshot with huge icons*

If that is truly your desktop then you've once again proven that Alienware owners have a slightly lower sense of style than the average PC-owner :p

That desktop doesn't look that bad, compared to certain others in this thread.

... plus, you probably couldn't tell from my own desktop that it also was taken on an Alienware laptop. ;)

LOL at the mention of my minion!!! ^_^

and what happened to windows 8?

This is the working partition... I do mostly research and programming in there, Win 8 is my entertainment partition, steam, movies, 9 gag... etc, working partition is not in a SSD also but contains everything that does my entertainment partition, just not games.

This looks familiar :shiftyninja:

Where have we seen this before? :pinch:

No idea, the theme is fairly recent also... in fact, I shown this picture because I updated my work partition, it was quite outdated and needed to install some new programs in it :D

I need fully native environment or a lot of external devices won't work...

I was talking about the Start Menu :p

Oh! certainly is an endangered species, but with enough conscience it will be preserved :D, P.D. My win8 desktop from a few posts back:

win81080p4.png

As you can see... I'm doing my part preserving this precious endangered species :D (start8)

P.D. Programs... are courtesy of my university (networked licenses) free! (included with the hefty sum that the scholarship amounts... better use them)

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
