While checking my Mojang account I noticed I have a Minecraft gift code sitting around. It was originally intended to be a present, the person never redeemed it though.

 

So what better to do with it than to give it away on Neowin?

 

If you're interested, post what you're going to build on the Neocraft server.

 

Eligible are all Neowin community members with > 20 posts. The winner will be randomly picked by me on Friday, February 21st 2014, 20:00 CET.

My 12 yr old son LOVES minecraft he plays it on both xbox 360 and on his iPad Mini.. He has been begging me to get it for him on the PC as well. He says its better on the PC, you can do more stuff, yatta yatta. He is a fantastic builder and watches minecraft videos on youtube all the time, including Minecraft Dad, Captain sparkles,etc. 

 

I would love to win this key for him so he can play here on Neowin server as well as with his other friends on the PC side. 

Please can i have that gift code you would be my role model for life.

I have never played minecraft as im not able to get an acccount because my mum doesnt want to buy it for me.

All my friends have it and there always talking about it and it makes me upset.

Everyday i have to go on to streams on twitch to try and win one but i never get any luck.

I have even had to download gift code generators and of course they dont work and now i have advertisments spamming me.

I cant take it anylonger i really need an account.

I will build something that would inspire others to build and be nice and thoughtful to everyone on the server.

please frank b. :(

Edit: I know im not eliglble for the account but please just spare this one account for me it would make my life

My son has this on the xbox but I refuse to even try it with a controller!  Mouse and keyboard guy, me!

 

Making up one of those huge-ass spaceships from Independent Day would be pretty cool, populate it with creepers and build the White House below it.  No idea if I'd have the patience though!

I would actually build nothing, but i would give it to my son whom on pocket edition, makes airplanes, giant swords and anything else that takes his fancy. I'd like to give him his own copy so if I could get this and play along with him, that would be fantastic. Good luck to everyone

I would an elaborate fortress both above and below ground. I can see it in my mind...and I've built one before, but it was on my little brothers Xbox.

Apologies for being late in picking the winner - it's been a long week, and I was really tired last night.

 

And the winner is: Obi-Wan Kenobi

    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
    • Meta announces a major leadership change at WhatsApp by Pradeep Viswanathan Meta has announced a major leadership change at WhatsApp, with Will Cathcart stepping down after seven years of leading the world's largest messaging platform. CRED CEO and founder Kunal Shah will take over as the next global head of WhatsApp. CRED is an Indian fintech company focused on creditworthy consumers. As part of the transition, Meta is also making a minority investment in CRED through its Series H funding round. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Will Cathcart will remain at Meta and move into a new role focused on building new products from the ground up. Cathcart led WhatsApp during a major growth phase, helping the app reach more than 3 billion users worldwide. He also played a key role in expanding WhatsApp’s business offerings while keeping privacy and end-to-end encryption central to the product. Meta’s Chief Product Officer, Chris Cox, said Kunal Shah was selected after a search for a leader who understands WhatsApp’s global scale and future potential. In a leaked internal memo, Cox described Shah as a “serial founder” and one of India’s most respected entrepreneurs, adding that he brings “entrepreneurial energy” and a strong product mindset to the role. As part of the Series H funding round, CRED is raising ₹8,550 crore, or about $900 million, in a round led by Meta. The funding values CRED at ₹43,239 crore, or about $4.5 billion, on a post-money basis. It is important to note that this investment will not give Meta access to CRED customer information. Kunal posted the following on X regarding his new role at Meta: Although Kunal Shah will be stepping away from his operating role as CRED CEO, he will retain his personal shareholding in the company.
    • It wouldn't be hard for me to turn off my TV, if I had one. For one thing, I never scroll Instagram. The only reason I have an account is because Meta created one when it merged the account systems for its various services.
