hope that it will be out by xmas or new yrs but, he'll be really busy then

He could pull off something KoL did last year: release a VS right on Christmas day (KoL's Sustenance VS).

Digital James can do everything he feels like doing, it's not like he's distrbuing the mod or something, you should know that by know Darell, besides that you know that he never shares his mods so stfu ;)

I'm sure that b0se knew that with the preview there would be others to make a port even before the release which was comtempted for Nov, I know he has a life so keep it up b0se ;) we'll be waiting!

@ The DarrellMan.... if for p-e-r-s-o-n-a-l use...note the NFR? Not for Release....it doesn't have to be okay with anyone.

@vf..I'm crushed at your statement. Let me commit suicide now.

i think it's absolutely gorgeous... too bad i don't have a mac for me to use it on so i can beg you to let me use it lol

lol are you kidding me? susumu and some other mac themers decided to stop authorizing theme ports to windows for a while because of it. Which is why they stopped letting people post screenshots of unreleased mac themes that they ripped themselves to Windows over at A-S, or at least tried to establish the rule.

sounds like crying..i concede.

i guess the windows community is just more mature.......:rofl:

as long as its for personal use and is made with the concept that everyone has seen, whats the problem? they arent spoiling anything...the only reason i think people would have a problem with this, is if people were actually making the original concept pale in comparison to the personal mod... which bose doesnt have much to worry about in this case.

You know, I could understand your stance, Darell, if DJs mod of eternal looked anything like GUI.Air. The only resemblence is the color and the name of the mod. Past that, it doesnt loook a thing like GUI.Air, so I see no reason to have even brought it up.

And a big reason for not allowing OS X -> Windows ports is because they dont want their work tainted by Windows. Owning a Mac is almost cult-like, and its great.

They want their hard work to be something unique, something you cant get on any operating system. If you want to use a Mac theme so bad, buy a Mac and use it the way it was meant to be used.

Whilst I dont agree with "Which is why they stopped letting people post screenshots of unreleased mac themes that they ripped themselves to Windows over at A-S, or at least tried to establish the rule.", as long as its for personal use, theres no reason to cry.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By Danielx64 · Posted

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
