yeah, he should be a little more considerate for the masses, since the avg. net speed for members here is 14.4k. those three megs take FOREVER to download. :(

:rolleyes:

jpgs are lossy and lame

If thats the average speed around here, Im God.

14.4 means theyre computer is 10 years old. 56k is probably the lowest.

Everyone who uses OSX should try this

What is does once you set it up is it goes to the internet and pulls images off the internet and display them on your desktop randomly, with zoom in, zoom out, fade in, fade out, and panning the image.

It's really really neat.

Basically you install the two apps. And then enter a keyword, say babe, and what it does is it downloads and displays random images on your desktop. You get new images and it keeps things really fresh and new.

I set it up and I have a download folder of about 6 GB now of random images it's pulled from the internet.

Never get bored of a static desktop. Try this out.

Wrong. Anyone can have a high end computer system and be stuck on dialup. The connection depends on where they live. There are some countries and some areas where there is NO broadband (and for your info yes, I am on broadband). And as you put on a desktop image, you obilage to obey the rules set out by Ranish so obey him!

what visual style is that? and link to wallpaper plz :p

The Visual style is Royale Vista 1.1 which I modded for my desktop picture for a fake glass look :) (Windowblinds 5 still won't work :()

Also you can get the wallpaper from here - http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/27134564/

    • How can it beat a Steam machine without a serious GPU? The two CU iGPU only provides about 5fps in gaming. That's not going to make any gamer happy.
    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
    • Beats Studio Pro wireless over-ear ANC headphones drop to their lowest price yet by Fiza Ali Amazon is currently offering the Beats Studio Pro headphones at their all-time low price. The Studio Pro use 40mm active drivers which are designed to improve clarity and reduce distortion compared to previous models, with up to an 80% improvement over the Beats Studio3 Wireless.

Physically, they are designed to be worn for long periods without feeling heavy or awkward. The ear cushions use UltraPlush engineered leather while metal sliders allow you to adjust the fit. On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection. There is also a 3.5mm input if you want to plug in directly, including use with in-flight entertainment systems. Controls are located on the headphones and include a "b" button for music and call control, a volume rocker, and a multifunction button used for switching listening modes, EQ settings, power, and pairing.

    • "lets you pause updates by choosing an end date, for up to 35 days" Wasn't it "indefinitely"?
    • Those extra reboots are related to the UEFI Secure Boot certificate update thing.
