i wish my skins will work

There's quite a few in the making, once WLM is out we'll see more getting released.

That just means we're closer to MSG Plus! Live! :D Can't wait

Anyone wondering what our beta test "prize" is? :s

It's good, trust me :yes:

Mind explaining how Yahoo! users will reply to the WLM users?

;)

The logic in people's messages here is exonerating. :p

You can, in the contact list you can click the green double sided arrows and choose show details.

But the display picture is huge! It's not how it use to be in 7.5, I know many who hate this in the current build of wlm8. I hope this changes but I doubt it.

Also about the Yahoo being implemented into MSN, it's not likely to be in 8.0 if its going to be released next week, more like 8.1/8.5 which ever route they take on that. IF it does get released with Yahoo next week the developers won't be sleeping till then.. lol

There's a lot of issues with Yahoo implemented into MSN right now apprently. Some issues are, people are on msn and on away but appear online to yahoo messenger users AND another one is able to exchange text messages only, no files (so no Sharing Folders either), no Winks, no audio/video, etc. This is mentioned on mess.be

I just tried WLM8 in Vista... now I see what you meant by that. That's a feature I liked in 7.5 (not considering half the time I'd have to manually click on everyone's contact card to force the DPs to load).

Stuff like this makes me kinda wonder whom the Messenger team really listens to. Which smart ass came up with the idea of winks and paid packs anyway?

That's good news :D . But it still limited to text messages as there are no audio/video capabilities between WLM and Yahoo! Messenger :( . Oh well, on to the next version :cool: .

PSG22?

Actually, I'm fine without Messenger Plus! however I hope Apatch will be out as soon as possible, I hate those stooooopid ads on the contact window. Talk about bloat-ware.

Err because I am too use to the Tabbed Conversation that comes with MSNplus .. that's why :yes:

It won't, I submitted it as a bug and it was closed as by design sadly.

This date isn't accurate.

Shh, everyone's eye is off the ball :yes:

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. They asked us to update our shipping address.

The prize was the winks...I dont think its anything else...

My guess is a USB phone to use with the pc2phone feature. Only a guess though.

haha....Oh god thanks for the laugh...

I think people abused too much with the Logitech webcam thing and now we're only getting winks and crap.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • LibreWolf 151.0.3-1

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreWolf 151.0.3-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 151.0.3-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 151.0.3 Release Notes Notable changes: Clears the preference toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart, which may otherwise trigger an upstream bug on Windows (librewolf/issues#3056) Download: LibreWolf 64-bit | Portable 64-bit | ~100.0 MB (Open Source) Download: ARM64 | Portable ARM64 Links: LibreWolf Home Page | Addons | Screenshot | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Gf needed a new Surface and was looking at a Surface Laptop because of the Snapdragon. Seeing as it was a two year old chip she just decided to get a Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 instead. Personally this Surface Ultra Cassis reminds me a bit of Razor. It would be interesting if it could handle proper gaming and be 17 inch.

      No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux or Linux gaming in general (despite my own experience being a bit of a mixed bag). I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux exclusive and that you can benefit from using it even in Windows.
