yeah i checked, but will try again. it won't take my password even though i definitely remember it, and it won't send me a confirmation email to change the password...it keeps telling me i'm already logged in, but at the same time i'm not :blink: this is weird.

slane loves this thing...he swears by it. it gives you a "real" gamescore based on how rare or difficult the achieve is. no idea who does the math on it, but i just look at the actual gamerscore. and yours is still too low!

Mine has crossed 5K on true achievements, but my xbox just was recieved on the xbox repair status side of things, it still has these stages left, 'repair in progress','repair completed','console shipped back'...

i don't count that as actual gamerscore...but nice turnaround on your console, that's like one week door to door. pretty fast.

Yeh, don't quite recognize TA's GS as actual GS, Probably one week door to door, especially since the console has been shipped back as of Friday, so Monday is the earliest I'll see it. :)

So I'm finding the downside of playing as a completionist. I don't wanan play any of the games I got left. LAN was/is a great game, but I can't bring myself to finish it (though I need to, i'm like 3 missions away and 3 cars). Brink, I still have that annoying achievement to win on all maps. Thinking Imma leave my box on when I leave for work today, and just let it play through continuously and hopeful whatever team I'm put on, I'll win. PSU was fun online, but fairly certain I don't want play through the SP, though it shouldn't take long.

I gotta suck it up, so I can pass Neo.

Got the full 1,200 on L.A. Noire, just got the other 200 points to get when the release the next DLC's the second of which will be when i'm in Africa so i'll have to play it in September.

Duke Nukem Forever is a pile of sh*t.

I'm upto 103,727 so close to 104k might hit it tomorrow.

hey slane, you knew the risks when you decided to go for a completionist approach. it means playing through stuff that isn't necessarily fun. i'd advise against it in the case of Brink, that sounds like a lot of bother. you're completion rate is already impressive, leave it be.

Rob - Duke isn't that bad! at least you got the points out of it, i'm playing it on PC! when are leaving for Africa?

I'm off Friday. Going to try and finish of LAN, and maybe progress further in JC2 or try to get that last Brink cheevo. Haven't decided, but I am going to finish LAN at least.

edit: 3000 posts :)

hey Rob, that's coming up, and Turkey along the way! i'll be on the road myself and out of internet coverage for a while, so let me take this opportunity to wish you safe travels and all the best!

slane, make the most of that Friday...let's see if you can beat my 70K finally after so long heh heh

many congrats on your 5K my friend, nicely done. why did you change you name, i liked SteelToast.

The only reason I changed my name on Neowin is because SteelToast and Steel Toast were already taken on xbox live, ok so i'll keep my name here in neowin SteelToast then. (I got the gamertag change for free btw since my name was in it, just had to call microsoft support and talk to them 'nicely' to get the job done)

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99. That's 27% off and $90 saved for a solid Wi-Fi solution that covers your entire home (purchase link down below). The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.
