There was a link in his sig... now its gone back to his friend code. The link was http://dsmeet.com/

Yea I decided to get rid of it, I am going to wait till they get more features on that site before I use it. I just wish they had something that can notfiy people "Hey I put you on my list", and when that person logs in they know they were added on someone's list and would have to enter the other person friend code.

We should have random Neowin Kart nights. I played against Dale last night and we split a cup each.

The idea of needing to win so bad that you snake the entire course is a turn off to me. I'd rather come in 8th on a straight race than second to a snaker. I can't do it either, and will probably learn, but the fact the some people are defending it who admit to being the same people who threw you every round of a fight game tells you something about their game ethics. The same people who disconnect because they're losing. If I learn to do this, it would be for offline play. I can't imagine cheering myself on lapping others who just want to have fun.

I'm just about to walk down to kmart and buy the bundle, can't wait.

oh and wtf is 'snaking'? :huh:

Snaking...

I'm sure you're aware of the ability to power slide around corners, and manipulating your directions until you have red sparks underneath your tires? When you release the slide, you get a speed boost because of those sparks.

Snaking is an advanced technique (..well, thats what the NOA guy said ;D) where you power slide, gain red sparks as fast as possible, and boost, and jump right back into a powerslide and repeat. The result is a continous speed burst down the track. Its quite useful in carts such as the Dry Bomber, or Yoshi Egg. You basically want a cart with high acceleration and handling for it to be pulled off well. I usually go with Mario in the Dry Bomber and its a tough combo to beat. My toughest opponet has been Luigi in the vacuum car.... cant remember the name of it. So thats also a good combination to consider.

Snaking results in a lot of people disconnecting from races with me pretty fast though... oh well... its their loss.

I desire the knowledge/skll of the snake!!!

Just keep playing Figure-8 with the Dry-Bomber until you can master those straight parts. Then work your way into narrower tracks, like Choco Mountain from the N64. Snaking is a lot of fun.... but it causes people to disconnect immediately if they cant keep up, and it makes your thumb hurt after awhile ;D

In the Dry-Bomber I usually use Mario, and on a straight away like in Figure 8 its very easy. Start at one side, and hop turning towards the inside so you skid towards the outside. Hit left right left right as fast as you can to get the sparks up, and boost. As soon as you boost, hop the other way and repeat. It takes a little while to pick up, but once you find the rhythm it becomes very simple.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
