Well, I finally hit the 25,000 post mark. My posting rate has slowed the past couple of months as I've been dealing with work and other personal matters, but I still drop by Neowin every free minute that I can. Some people like me, some people don't, but I love this place regardless. As usual, I just wish to thank a few people who make my stay here that much better:

bigbluepride35: Best friend of 18 years, what else should I even bother saying that hasn't been said?

MusicalAngel: Another good friend who just happened to have me force her to sign up to Neowin lol.

Homer: I think we spend more time insulting each other than talking, but it's the best way to be.

Agentsmith: My boy, the supe. We don't get much time to talk anymore, but I definitely am thankful to have you on staff

BoogSoftball: Another supe that I'm glad to have around. You're around whenever needed and that's what counts most.

fred666: You settled into your role as supe nicely and I really respect how you do things.

BroChaos: You still need to get Xbox Live so I can kick your ass in MVP 2005.

blackice912: It's a shame our plans for the awards fell through, but you are definitely one of the coolest people to work with.

Aaron: Not much to say other than you're a cool guy that I always enjoy talking to.

Joel: Sarcastic and appreciates the home theater.....that's worth something in my book.

To every Neowin member who has stopped by and commented on my blog, thank you.

...and of course a special thanks and nod to all the people who stop by and post in the Home Theater forum. It's probably my favorite area of this site, but it definitely needs to be more active. So stop on in people.

Man, I don't even know who else to thank. I'm sure I forgot someone, but oh well. In the end, I'm simply thankful for everyone who gives me a place to talk about technology and the world around us. I'm sure I've ticked a fair number of people off and there's been a few times it almost cost me certain privileges, but, in the end, I simply want to give every member a chance to enjoy this place as much as I do. I'm out of words and thoughts, now, so I will leave it at that.

Here's to the next 5,000......

Congrats bangbizzle.

Way to go man. Such a geek but since you've saved my various technological euipment countless times I can deal with it :p . Even though the mp3 player only lasted like two weeks extra :whistle:

But I know how much effort yoiu put into contributing to this place so in all seriousness congratulations.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
