Forums online, news to follow


Recommended Posts

The upgrade took longer than expected (a lot of post data to move over and resynchronize) We decided to open the forums and news will be converted over in the next 24 hours.

For some this is neowin.net and for others it will be neowin5.net until the DNS has completely changed over.

Enjoy, because I'm tired and am going to bed now. :)

Definitely, we really appreciate it! It seems to be running quite fast atm, though of course it'll be a few hours before it gets a real load and we can see for sure.

[edit] www.neowin.net works for me, but all the forum links take me to www.neowin5.net... Love the quick edit in-place editor, btw :)

Congratulations on getting it up. Unfortunately, for me at least, the pages are loading slower than they ever have, taking an average of 15 seconds between clicking a link and the page actually beginning to load. And yes, Neowin is the only site this is happening with.

I'm assuming it's a DNS issue with my university connection so let's hope it's all sorted by tomorrow :)

Cool, i'm on neowin5.net right now, neowin.net gives a

message :p Everything seems to be working great! (Y)

@ neowin5.net I get

The site is temporarily offline for maintenance.

and @ neowin.net I get

Neowin is down for a reconfiguration

Neowin is temporarily down until we sort out the server

Neobond said it will come soon so its all good.(Y)

its starting to load slow reallllll slow now... Uploading things to server? Or is it just a problem :(

Perhaps DNS, :unsure:

I tried to re-upload my Avatar but it did not work I think cuz it uploaded it to neowin5.net/forum/uploads and we are going to be going back to neowin.net/forum/uploads.

Give it time. :yes:

its starting to load slow reallllll slow now... Uploading things to server? Or is it just a problem :(

Yeah same here, i think its just the new servers getting updated.

And Neobond, or any of the other admins. When would the best time to subscribe? when its all finished? or once the servers get updated fully?

    • "I think in the immediate absence of a partner to apply relief" In the words of Sterling Archer... "Phrasing!"
    • For me, the fundamental problems with these "smartglasses" is that they really don't work well for people with significant prescriptions and massively up the price if you use attached lenses if they have displays, and if they don't, then they're not actually "smart" anything, rather just connecting to your phone and relaying voice to an AI. In a few cases like this, they throw in small cameras to feed video to the AI. All around, these feel like both a solution looking for a problem, and the problems it tries to solve seem more easily solved by different approaches and designs. Oddly, if the rumours are true, Apple may actually have invented something for once and it kind of does this right: put cameras in ear buds and manage the interface to AI exactly as most of us do: tapping on an ear bud and saying "Hey Google" or "Hey Siri." That makes them compatible with almost everyone, can double up as a hearing assist device, an impaired vision assist device, a "smart" device... and answer your phone and play music. That just seems like a better solution all around.
    • Usually the bigger ones with many fixes/changes take a few, theyre an exception to the rule most likely
    • If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia
    • I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
