guys, this is hilarious - cool it off already, these are FAKE!

first of all, does anyone notice the hideous camera angles at which some of these were taken? If I had time, I'd draw up diagrams on some of them in a 3d space to demonstrate that the camera was held at the strangest angles...

second, how come there aren't any window indicators in the taskbar on ANY of the open windows?

third, it is way too late in the game for MS to be chaning their UI so dramatically

fourth, in the pictures where the sidebar isn't active, the pre-release info is stretched all the way to the right of the screen; whenever you do see images of the sidebar active, the taskbar abruptly ends where the sidebar begins and most importantly the entire text is place shifted to the left of the sidebar

fifth, some shots clearly show scanlines in the monitor while others don't

sixth... alright already, this is FAKE!!!

If you were taking secret images of builds that are supposed to be strictly NDA, do you really think that you'd be able to get a nice, clear shot of the screen?

One of the things that gets me is this guy keeps putting new images up, but yet he clearly is trying to stay away from the build tag info. If he really wanted to prove that it was real, or at least make us believe it was real, then he should post a shot of that. It just seems like he's staying away from it on purpose. Maybe I'm wrong though :ermm:

why are we so many people still talking about this?

right now i get the impression that every LOVES the design in those fake screenshots over the current vista build design. Am i the only one that thinks those screens look terrible compared to the real version? Look at picture 002 especially. the start menu's a boring list of text except for the office document icons

Finally, whats up with picture 004. Why is the sidebar overlapping the taskbar?? Theres a cloud from the wallpaper covering up the taskbar tray icons and clock...since when does that happen? :blink: :wacko:

edit: oh yea, as for the possibility of these being shots from a projector, some of the shots are as if you are under the image and looking upwards and others are as if you are looking down on the image. either the person is over 15 feet tall or the projector is displaying a really tiny image

hmm, looking around closely they seem to be very well thought out even if they are fake. Look closely the bootscreen shots in the second page, the first is black and white. Could it by cause the system is hasn't loaded any graphic drivers? and when it's fully loaded it loads aurora and then 32 bit images. I love the screens either way though:)

    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though

    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
