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:

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

      It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
