Sooo I'm back from a week vacation to Barcelona, Spain and it's still not released. Why don't we just call it a day and forget this vs?

are people incapable of waiting? he's clearly busy with other stuff as well, so how about being patient for a change? things take time to be done

he's saying for more than a week now that he'll be releasing his theme "later this evening", and that his theme is ready for a beta release. So maybe you should know more about the history of this thread.

:laugh: lol I totally agree...

if you can't wait anyway, why don't you go and make it yourself? even if it is "vaporware" you don't know it for a fact, having to put up with all of us is probably not helping

yeah, we don't know if it exsists, but to give up hope if to give up on life.... (err has nothing to do with this but oh well :p off topic)

besides, why are you here if you don't think it's real? there's no point in staying

i'd rather have something that's made perfect for the amount of time it took instead of having something rushed and semi-finished

I agree on that too... I find no point in getting somethings that's cheap. It like going to the store. Would you rather pay more for something that'll last, or get something cheap that breaks and you have to keep buying.

Even though we aren't buying this ($$$) it's still roughly the same thing.

in this situation it'd be more considering the bugs. if you do it in a rush, there's more change of more bugs. if you do it slow and take the time, it'll end up wifh a better and more efficient finished product instead of something with however many bugs to be fixed

The point is, if you arent going to release it, say you arent instead of constantly making new dates and not saying anything for a week. The same thing happened with Watercolor and everyone thought it was vaporware but it ended up being one of the best themes when it finally came out. It's just better not to be a jackass and leave people hanging. It makes it look like he just wants the attention and people begging for it to boost his ego.

I know DigitalFreedom very well and he is a very busy guy. Lay off him, we are both working on AeroBrowser and other work related things. If he can't make the deadline then he can't. Just wait, when he can, he will release it. I know that he has done alot of work on it and on aerobrowser so give him a chance.

we already have 2 or 3 deadlines. 1. later this week, 2. this evening, 3. in 4 hours.

the theme is great, but the behaviour sucks. say yes or say no, but not yes for several times and then virtually die for a week or another. but like I said, at some point, it doesn't matter anymore. we are all humans, and humanity is heavily marked by it's impatience.

why say he'll release it later this evening if he wasn't ready to release it? :unsure: I agree he may be busy and his life doesn't revolve around making a few people on the net happy by releasing a great looking vs, but he simply could have said "it'll be ready when it's ready" instead of "I'll release it this evening" :rolleyes:

yup :D

Just stop saying that it will be released on a certain day if you're not sure that you can. And let be honest the whole start of this thread was vague, with all those transparant parts and stuff. After a week or so we found out via an other thread what the real theme looked like (I did at least).

But I'll stop with what some of you call bitching, and I'll just wait until it's ready.

One note to the autor of this theme: Give a release date if you're 99% sure that you can make it that day.

And it's still a kick-ass theme! :woot:

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By Paul1979UK · Posted

      It depends, but it's also going to push more adoption of open source AI models that can run locally, I'm seeing a pattern among the US and China when it comes to closed and open source AI models, they close when they feel they have the advantage, open up when they feel they don't. This has little to do with security and everything to do with control, the irony is that the ones that do go open and get the community behind them are the ones that have the real control, hence why we keep seeing this seesaw from closed to open. Ultimately, it's far too dangerous to let any one country or corporation to control AI, which is why open source AI or AI you can run locally on your hardware is very likely going to be the future of AI over the long run, this is especially the case as AI becomes more powerful and useful for user, privacy, security and censorship will become more of an issue for users and businesses.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      A person should only be required to click through to an article if they want to know more details. The headline should give basic facts. A basic fact would include the name of the service being shut down.

      That would probably be a good outcome, but it would also require other "features" be changed to comply, such as Auto play, scrolling, and advertising. Having the laws shift these platforms back to a socially responsible and useful places is a benefit for everyone. The addictive nature is the problem, and while many blame the individual, psychologists would suggest the platform is using a well trodden playbook to hook in more revenue..

      It was a rather nice rant as I rather dislike when people support the shitifcation of the Internet. My comment also factually applied the definition of "clickbait' to this headline unlike your comment. I have been reading this site for some 20 years now so I will call them out when they are doing carp they shouldn't be doing but thanks for your concern. You can't even do a search by headline anymore to do a quick search to find something because most of the titles lack all the relevant keywords that should be there.
