IDEA: the first guy invistes his friend and one of us. The one of us invites the guy's secodn friend and one of us, then each one of us invite a friend and a neowinian. It will work!

WOW what a clever idea!!!!!!! :o Just a shame its been discussed about 4 times already and NO it WONT work!!! :argh:

@atomicsky: Yeah!

Here is how it should work:

1. I create a thread: Neowin gMail Requests

2. A mod should postcount lock it (makes it go italic)

3. Everybody who wants an account posts

4. Somebody who has gMail invites the first person in the list and PMs them with the next person to invite

5. The PMed person signs up and invites the specified person, then looks up the next person in the thread, invites them, and PMs them

6. So on...

this would be very nice, first of all, and 2nd of all, you would get *****@gmail.com easyier because almost no one has g-mail atm

I started the thread.

Someone who has gMail invites needs to post at https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=7&t=162367

No one else should post AT ALL until that one person has been designated. Then, everybody should post ONLY ONCE (with their e-mail address, obfuscated with NOSPAM). Follow the instructions.

what if the next person in line is offline when they get invited. Everyone might not get invited by the time limit esp. if they stay away for like 12 hours. Should there be a rule to maybe skip someone if they do not pm the next person in a certain amount of time?

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • 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!
