What the hell did the admins do


Recommended Posts

God, I feel so relaxed knowing it's not my site to admin and sort out :p

I'm used to being the admin guy people are always shouting at to get sites updated, and it's DAMN stressful! Knowing someone else is on it is so good.

Dont know if you understand what I mean, But meh. :)

Good work Guys :hug:

These past few weeks have really shown me how I'd suffer without Neowin.

Only stressful when things aren't working. Like when I screw up the only forum skin.

What does "teething" mean. I found something about it doing with babies and their teeth growing?

Yeah, "teething" is what babies get when they're new teeth grow through. The word is used as a metaphor sometimes, it basically means the problems that occur with something that is new ie. the new servers. Don't know how to explain it better, I can speak the language but my understanding is limited :pinch:

Thanks for the update Neobond!

Ah, cool. Glad to see the forums are back up. The blog things are pretty cool to... all in all, it looks like things are coming together.

BTW, is there any chance our topic subscriptions will return?

Timdorr answered this in another thread, basically the answer is no they are to far along to fix that. Not a big bug really, small annoyances like this will be sooooo worth it when Neowin is fully updated into NW5.

Bug in the upgrader. However, we're well past that, so there's nothing we can do to fix it at this point. You'll just have to re-subscribe.

Incompetence is the condition of a person who is unable to properly perform his or her duty. Someone should lose his/her job for this outage. I'm just happy it's not me that has messed up. I would be handed my butt on a plate if I did screw up such a simple thing as a migration this bad. Heads roling downhill is never a pretty sight. Hope it works out for you soon.

True, though we're not paying these guys to do this for us under contract (as I'm assuming you are in your job with other websites/systems).

^^ hot picture of brisbane mate.... living on the gold coast at the moment, love hitting up brissie though. underrated city in my opinion

Thanks yeah I love Brisbane you guys got hit hard with that rain the other night.

We lost a historical tree where I live in Brisbane with the wild weather.

haha yeah, seems like everyday at 4pm we get a thunderstorm... its cool though, i love watching them come over. nothing like sitting on the balcony watching the lightning with a VB.

anyway, i hope the main page gets up soon, it feels like someone demolished the front of the neowin house but you can still get in the back lol

I thought M$ own neowin.net :| but I'm glad you explain what happen. Neowin.net will be back soon :)

:rofl: Umm no MS gave Neowin a kick up the bum once for something that was posted on the forums but they don?t own them:wacko:o:

I saw somewhere they hope to have a basic or skeleton main page up today.

Keep the comments tasteful people

Actually, that was said yesterday and I don't think anything went up.

What was posted on the forums that microsoft didn't like?

    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026 deal sees Samsung Odyssey 49" 240Hz QD-OLED monitor at lowest price by Sayan Sen Earlier today we covered a very good deal on JBL's BAR 800 Dolby Atmos soundbar system as the unit is available for just $600 as part of Amazon Prime Day 2026 deals. That's not all though as there are many more discounts to choose from. If you are looking for a high-end monitor, Samsung's 49 inch G9 QD-OLED gaming monitor is a solid deal too as it's currently just $855 (purchase link under the specs table down below). It is a super-ultrawide (32:9) 1440p curved gaming monitor and as such should offer a very immersive experience. The G93SC is a 49-inch QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED) screen and that means it should have excellent contrast as well as color reproduction. Brightness is a bit lacking though so if you are looking to set it up in a relatively bright room, you may be better off with something else. Speaking of external light and brightness, the major difference on the G93SC vs the newer G93SD is that the latter comes with Samsung's "Glare Free" technology to reduce glare while the C model packs a glossy finish. The technical specifications of the Samsung G93SC are given in the table below: Specification Value Panel Type OLED Screen Shape Curved Screen Curvature 1800R Resolution DQHD (5120 × 1440) Aspect Ratio 32:9 Brightness (Typical) 250 cd/m² Brightness (Minimum) 200 cd/m² Contrast Ratio 1,000,000:1 HDR Support VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 HDR10+ HDR10+ Gaming Response Time 0.03 ms (GTG) Refresh Rate Up to 240 Hz Viewing Angle 178° Horizontal / 178° Vertical Color Support 1 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% DCI-P3 (CIE1976) Adaptive Sync FreeSync Premium Pro / G-SYNC Compatible DisplayPort 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 HDMI 1 × HDMI 2.1 Micro HDMI 1 × Micro HDMI 2.1 USB Hub 3 × USB 3.0 Speakers Built-in Speaker Output 5W × 2 Channels Operating Temperature 10°C – 40°C Operating Humidity 10–80% (Non-condensing) Stand Type Height Adjustable Stand (HAS) Height Adjustment 120.0 ± 5.0 mm Tilt -2° (±2°) to 15° (±2°) Wall Mount 100 × 100 mm (VESA) Included HDMI Cable HDMI-to-Micro HDMI Cable Included DisplayPort Cable Yes Get it at the link below: Samsung 49" Odyssey G93SC Series Curved Gaming Monitor, QD-OLED: $854.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days at no cost.

    • Actually Windows 11 is the GUI from Windows 10 X slapped onto Windows 10. Hence the many performance issues and initial limitations of the UI, like all the restrictions on the task bar placement and features. You could not even right click on the Taskbar and bring up task manager when it first shipped. Windows 10X was truly a new OS from the ground up. Basically a lightweight OS that ran containers for various app types. Win32 got its own container. Performance was not good and OEM’s pushed back on it, but wanted a new OS to push Pc sales. Hence Windows 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10X
    • Windows 10 was 6 years old when Microsoft revealed Windows 11. Does this mean Windows 12 is due next year?
    • Congratulations Windows.
