site slowness?


Recommended Posts

prehaps neowin should close the bords on sunday while they backup. its realy annoying to come here and have the main page load but as soon as a link is clicked there is nothng, even refreshing the page dosnt do anything. a nother reason why we get a slow down is all thoes idiots that keep f5 held down in the hope the page will refresh.

Obviously they are doing a master backup before they install IPB 2.1  :ninja:

Seriously, some Sundays are slower than others

The above implies a joke about 2.1 but then...

I'm still having the slowness.  It took me 2 minutes just to log in, plus another minute just to open this topic.

Most Sunday Backups don't usually take this long.  (Usually 12 hours before this.)

So, (and I am probably starting the rumor mill here), but why do you think it is taking so long.  Are they taking a full master backup before moving to IPB 2.1, or are they... I can't believe I am even saying this... moving to phpBB. :pinch:

The backup seems to have stopped, and the IPB number is still v2.0.4.  I guess that's it for the rumor mill.

EDIT: Oops, I spoke/typed too soon.  There is still some slowness.

It was a joke people, 2.1 isn't even out yet, you know?

I couldn't see Neowin for a few days, due to Safari being unable to open it. I finally broke down and downloaded Firefox, which seems to fix the issue. Meaning I can browse the web with Safari and have to use Firefox for Neowin. *grrrr

I know... I was just making a joke. I was going for some sarcasm. I thought that we would have started making really weird predictions for what is going on. e.g. Some space aliens have kidnapped one of the admins (oh no Neobond... ahhhh... what's that green light that's taking you into space?) and has gotten a 5-finger discount on IPB 2.1 and forced him to upgrade the forums, causing sitewide slowness. The end of the world is near... :alien:

I know, I'm weird. :wacko: :p

rename it the Neowin Browser

Whats going on? Everyday, I come to Neowin, get a good 20 - 40 minutes reading and posting, and the site just slows to a complete stop.

I can't load any pages, can't reply or anything?

Is it the server loads that just can't deal with the amount of people or what? Cause its annoying the hell out of me.

    • Formatting would be awesome if fully customised and then roll out the settings as a company wide standard.
    • I just want to know why the volume control feature in the browser version keeps appearing then disappearing, here today - gone tomorrow. Now it's gone again. Annoying as hell.
    • When you have only lies and blood libels to present, you've lost. And how hard is it for you to look up BBC and AP? You hate Jews, just admit it.
    • This article does not make sense and it’s very evident, the bug wasn’t confirmed to exist, because the application itself runs on editions of Windows which make it impossible to run Hyper-V VMs on, “Basically, Claude Desktop on Windows spins up a 1.8GB Hyper-V virtual machine if you use Claude Cowork or agent mode even once.”, suggests the bug is caused by something else otherwise it would only happen to users with the capability of running Hyper-V VMs and that’s only if Hyper-V was enabled which is by default not enabled. The true issue is that the author who reported the bug used the incorrect terminology, it’s actually a container, not a VM that is being started by the way. There were users on macOS reporting the same issue, Hyper-V, doesn’t exist on that platform obviously. Every single user who confirmed the problem in the last week was either using macOS making this issue impossible to be relevant to them, or was a comment talking about WSL, which the author indicated 3 months ago was disabled.
    • “To prevent hallucination issues and keep the database clean, the platform uses a multi-agent verification loop to check code quality.” - This absolutely isn’t happening. ”Before the massive rise of LLMs, which tanked its traffic by about 50% over the last couple of years, Stack Overflow was the go-to website for millions of programmers seeking coding solutions.” - It still is trusted, because the community of users, blocked other users from submitting false and misleading answers generated by AI agents that can be convinced something it generated is actually incorrect even if it’s actually correct. The company itself doesn’t know what it wants to be so it keeps trying and failing to introduce AI features to the platform. This effort will also fail, already submitted one successful poison pill, look forward to generating more.
