Nice. You may live to regret that, though. lol

Hmm I haven't received a message so maybe it takes awhile

Strange, I got the message straight away, I think. But then my status was pending for about a week.

 

I'll send it again, see what happens.

 

OK, sent it again.

Maybe the system is not happy seeing all these requests coming from me?

 

I don't think so...  those people who you invited may end up on the waiting list since MS got long queue list of invitations. 

 

It could be all of those invitations or MS could select some of the invitations to be in the selected preview group for this month or next.. based on their decisions.

 

If some people didn't get the preview program this time, then they will try again in the next few months or next year.

Hmm still nothing here. I was in the XBox 360 Preview Program, I wonder if that has something to do with it? Maybe they are the same? I can't see a Preview Program app in my apps list though on XBox one.

 

Nope, people who took part in the 360 program are part of the X1's.

 

Definitely different programs too. The initial wave had to be selected by Microsoft, unlike the 360's where you registered your interested. Once you were invited you advanced to the second selection stage. Then finally you get into the program.

 

The app is available if you have a code, it's not listed on the store.

Your second sentance contriducts the first one I think, did you make a typo?

Posted a while back but nothing yet so if anyone is still feeling generous... :D  Of course if I get in I'll add who I can from here.

 

 

Finally decided to buy an Xbox One so if someone would kindly send an invite? GT is b1oh3ad.

Just to prove I did post and I'm not coming to the party late  :rofl:

I wasn't making myself clear probably :p

 

To get into the 360 program you signed up voluntarily. For the Xbox One, Microsoft chose gamers at random and sent them invitations.

 

There is no restrictions in taking part in both (i.e if you took part in 360 testing you're not ineligable for the X1). I've tested the 360 dash for years but was selected by MS for the X1 program from the start. Being part of the 360 program however does not guarantee you entry into the X1 program, it's completely random. Now the only way to get in is via invites, but it seems they approve everyone, it just takes time.

 

As I said when it first rolled out, it a completely stupid way of handling things and more hoops than necessary to jump through. There was likely a lot of people invited who had no interest while others weren't invited and did want to be involved. That's why they should go back to the old process where you register interest to take part.

I agree.

    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
