Windows 8

Google Chrome

Deleted anything neowin from history.

Dumped the cache

Deleted all neowin cookies.

Open up again, and the damn 4 square ajax loading spinner stays on nearly every page.

I have the exact same problem. It's annoying as hell!

If I had to guess, its related to the notifications. Will have another dev look at it in the morning.

If you mean PM notifications, that's working. The comments, however, are not working for me either in IE10 in addition to the bug I filed earlier.

Just like to say it's been like this for a long time for me.

Site still works fine. Just always has the loading square in the top right

This is the behavior as well on Firefox/Windows 7 and Safari on Mac OS X. Haven't noticed it in iOS. The spinner sometimes seems to get stuck spinning (although I'm not always sure if it is just getting some content somewhere very slowly) but everything still seems to work OK. I haven't had issues where I am unable to respond to comments due to it (I think)...

It shows when the minispy is updating, or when you are saving a post in the forums.. I'm on Chrome Beta/Windows 8 and it doesn't stick for me, but we'll get Redmak to take a look.

Out of curiosity, are you using AdBlock on Neowin? because I believe that blocks certain elements of the minispy, which we can't do anything about anyway..

I just finally used Ad Block to create a filter and selected the spinner and blocked it to finally get rid of it.

Had this issue with IE10; blocked it with a custom stylesheet:

.spinner[id="ajax-spinner"] {
	display: none;
	}

    • I wish one of the windows updates hadn't broken glass. Is there a workaround for that I'm not aware of?
    • OpenAI announces o3 Pro, its most intelligent reasoning model by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI today announced o3-pro, its flagship reasoning model that uses more compute to "think harder" and provide consistently better answers. This new model will be replacing o1-pro in ChatGPT since it consistently performs better in math, science, and coding. To help everyone make the most out of the model, o3-pro supports tool calling. So, based on the user prompt, the model can do a web search, analyze files, reason about visual inputs, use Python, personalize responses using memory, and more. This is a big improvement over o1-pro, which lacked access to tools. But the downside is that o3-pro will take more time to respond. OpenAI recommends users use o3-pro in cases where reliability matters more than speed. According to OpenAI's evaluations, users consistently preferred o3-pro's responses over o3 in key domains like science, education, programming, business, and writing help. o3-pro was also rated consistently higher for clarity, comprehensiveness, instruction-following, and accuracy. The new o3-pro model is available in ChatGPT's model picker for Pro and Team. ChatGPT's Enterprise and Edu users will get access to this latest model next week. For developers, the o3-pro model comes with a 200,000 context window and is priced at $20 per million input tokens and $80 per million output tokens. OpenAI recommends developers use background mode with o3-pro to prevent timeouts. And the model has a May 31, 2024 knowledge cutoff. The OpenAI team also noted the following as the current limitations of the o3-pro model: At the moment, temporary chats are disabled for o3-pro as we resolve a technical issue. Image generation is not supported within o3-pro—please use GPT-4o, OpenAI o3, or OpenAI o4-mini to generate images. Canvas is also currently not supported within o3-pro. As OpenAI continues to refine its models, the balance between speed and reliability will likely remain a key consideration for users choosing the right tool for their needs.
    • What annoys me is updates take forever to install on my Pixel 9 Pro XL, it was never so slow on my Samsung devices.
