Official Windows Live Messenger Invitations Thread


Recommended Posts

bah, i stuffed up bad. i got my invite sent to a gmail address which i hadn't registered for a Passport, so all i get is a dead link. Now it's registered and i still get a dead link. :( so if you see me asking for another invite, it's not because i'm greedy, just because i need one that works. ;)

Big thanks to faraaz though. (Y)

If you want to ask for an invite do it here https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=408171

Otherwise sit patiently and follow the guide in the first post, I've asked a load of people with no luck, and u people requesting in this thread are annoying.

Edit: I've been here nearly 3 years and i just got 500 posts!!!, I live here, yet i don't seem to post as much as others...

That one got closed.

Edit - I Have Windows Mail Beta, I just clicked a link on my normal hotmail, however I can't seem to find an invitations button

I have two invites...it would be cool if you are in another beta if you could hook me up with an invite...but if not I have two I can offer.

EDIT: I now have none...of course my inbox here on Neowin shot up to 15 within minutes

Hi, do people who get invited to join the beta also have 2 invites to give out? If so, that would be great - people with invites could send an invite to the next person who posted on the forum, and so on. Everyone would get an invite! :)

Newly invited people will get invites soon... so yes and no, as it does not happen immeadiately. Nice of you to join NW, but please don't be a leech.

Could someone send me one? I will have your babies if you do! (Not really but hey!)

Do not post asking for invites, PM those who are offering them. Read the first post before you do anything!

I'm not trying to be a leech, i thought it would be possible for everyone who wanted an invite to get one as long as they gave away their invites! Guess that would only work in a perfect world though.

Cheers

I'll put it this way...people got two invites...I have gotten in the past 10 minutes, 15 PM's There is no way EVERYONE will get one. :no:

You have to trust that the people asking for invites are actually in need. If you feel as though they already have one, just post who you invited.

People asking for invites: Be honest folks, these people are choosing to give you their program invites over their friends/families. Appreciate it, dont abuse it.

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.

    • BTW DXVK is also available on Windows and offers similar benefits like on Linux when it comes to performance, at least in some titles. The Raceroom racing sim for example even offers DXVK as one of its officially supported options and it can achieve ridiculous improvements in certain situations, like quite literally doubling (or more) the framerates
