Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any scripts for neowin or anyother useful scripts? If you don't know what GreaseMonkey is...

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension which lets you to add bits of DHTML ("user scripts") to any web page to change its behavior. In much the same way that user CSS lets you take control of a web page's style, user scripts let you easily control any aspect of a web page's design or interaction.

You can do things like add a delete button in Gmail, Yahoo Launch in WMP, Remove any about.com results from Google results, Make sure Gmail uses secure connection everytime, Hotmail single window, plus hundreds of other scripts and anything else you can come up with using DHTML.

Well, I have it as an extension, but I rarely use Firefox.

I wonder how compatible userjs snipplets are with greasemonkey scripts though..

I though they don't use the same exact synthax, but I'm sure both could benefit from converting each others scripts.

I use it.

An almost official wiki-site is set up here with nearly every script that comes out.

I don't personally use any that interacts with Neowin, though. Mainly Gmail, flickr and then some other general ones.

"Give me back the web" has got a whole new meaning :p

Never could get it working. Might try again after the nightlys are where you can install extensions again. I can't right now.

Add notes to web page script.

"So I ran across this site a while back that let you create notes in your browser that could be saved, re-opened, even subscribed to via RSS.

Tony over at Ponderer.org has taken it a step further and combined it with Greasemonkey, the Firefox extension that lets you activate user scripts on just about any web site.

Using Greasemonkey, you can use the WebNote script to make notes on top of existing websites. This could be a great tool for designers who are reviewing concepts with a client or just want to make notes of something they see that they like. Check it out if you have a chance."

Opera 8 users should also have some GreaseMonkey support now:

More information about what compatibility you can expect, and how Opera is slightly different:

And just when I thought this couldn't get any cooler....

Platypus is a Firefox extension which lets you modify a Web page from your browser -- "What You See Is What You Get" -- and then save those changes as a Greasemonkey script so that they'll be repeated the next time you visit the page.

    • Steam games now detail what accessibility features they offer on store pages by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has pushed a new update for its Steam platform, and it's fully focused on accessibility. The latest change makes it both easier for developers to show what accessibility options they offer within their games and for players to find options they require to enjoy titles. "This update comes after gathering valuable feedback from developers as well as players with disabilities," says Valve in the announcement blog post. "Over 5,000 applications have added details about their accessibility support, with more developers updating their games each day." Here are the options currently offered by Valve: Gameplay: Adjustable Difficulty: Players can adjust gameplay difficulty. Save Anytime: Players can save gameplay using both automatic and manual saves. Saving can be performed at any point in the game. Audio: Custom Volume Controls: Players can adjust the volume of the audio. Different types of audio can be muted independently from each other. Narrated Game Menus: Players can listen to game menus with narrated audio. Stereo Sound: Players can identify how far to the left or right sounds are coming from. Surround Sound: Players can identify how far in any direction sounds are coming from. Visual: Adjustable Text Size: Players can adjust text size. (In-game text, menu text, character dialog text, subtitle text) Subtitle Options: Players have options to customize the display of subtitles for all spoken content and essential audio information. Color Alternatives: Gameplay doesn't rely on colors to communicate important information, or players have an option to adjust colors used for distinguishing information. Camera Comfort: Players have an option to adjust or disable uncomfortable camera movement such as screen shaking, camera bob, or motion blur, or the game doesn't feature these effects. Input: Keyboard Only Option: Players can play the game with just a keyboard and no other additional input mechanisms such as a mouse or controller. Mouse Only Option: Players can play the game with just a mouse and no other additional input mechanisms such as a keyboard or controller. Touch Only Option: Players can play the game with just touch controls and no other additional input mechanisms such as a mouse, keyboard or controller. Playable without Timed Input: Players have an option to adjust gameplay to not require precisely timed button presses ("quick time events") or gameplay does not require such button presses. Text-to-speech: Text chat can be narrated out loud in real time. Speech-to-text communications: Voice chat can be read as a text transcript in real time. These can be found when searching in the filters as well as inside games' store pages in the features section on the right side, as seen in the screenshot above. While developers are not required to mention accessibility options of their games on store pages, Valve says it is highly recommended to make sure players that require it can find relevant games more easily. "We've worked to make it as easy as possible for developers to indicate these features are available by using feedback to standardize these options as much as possible," added the company.
    • They have a concept of a plan. How fitting.
    • As Total War turns 25, Creative Assembly is teasing a "new era" for the strategy franchise by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Creative Assembly has now officially been making Total War games for 25 years. It was in June 2000 that the UK-based studio put forth Shogun: Total War for PC, with Electronic Arts publishing the ambitious project. With a quarter of a century now behind the series, the developer is now looking towards the "next era" of Total War. The studio will host its first-ever Total War showcase in December 2025, which is described as a "flagship video presentation unveiling what’s next for the franchise." Creative Assembly said that the showcase will have announcements for new games as well as content for existing titles, with developer commentary also happening regarding the future of the series. "We’re honoured and humbled to be one of the few video games that get the chance to celebrate such a huge milestone, and we want to thank colleagues past and present, as well as our fans for all the support," says Total War vice president Roger Collum. "2025 marks an exciting new era for the franchise as we reveal what’s next for Total War, and we can’t wait to celebrate throughout the year with everyone." Read an anniversary letter from Roger Collum regarding the studio's history, Total War beginnings, and more over here. Prior to the showcase, Creative Assembly will be hosting retrospective video interviews, developer livestreams, and more behind-the-scenes content regarding the series starting this August. There will also be multiplayer tournaments for fans, giveaways, Q&A sessions with developers, mod spotlights, and more events happening during this period. As the studio celebrates the occasion, a massive Total War historical games sale has just gone live on Steam. This has discounts of up to 75% across everything from the original Shogun: Total War to the latest entry, Total War: PHARAOH. The discounts will last until June 26.
    • ANY standard Windows PC, either desktop or laptop, can install the Copilot app, period, no NPU or Copilot+ certification required. I should know, I have it running on a 3770K (2011) Windows 11 PC and works perfectly fine. So, your laptop can definitely run it, too.
    • Just what the driving public does not need--still another very attractive and addictive distraction.
