This is amazing - 18% GLBT population on Neowin. I'm honestly a little shocked myself.

Your not the only one, who's shocked, but I don't care ...

I'm not homophonic and couldn't care less what a person sexual orientation is unless, your my girlfriend or close friend.

All except one of my friends are straight, the only one is a female friend who is bi, I've tried to get something happening with her and her friends, me being a straight male and all,

her and I have had our nights, but her girlfriends are 100% lesbians and i'm not allowed to participate :cry: (most of them are too butch for me anyhow)

Actually, it's 18% of the number of people who took the poll, about 750, whereas Neowin has many thousands of users. And this is by no means a controlled sampled of the Neowin population that may accurately represent the whole ;) Perhaps the percent is so high because that part of the Neowin population felt the urge to share their sexuality more than the other part, straight-oriented users; also to be taken into account is chance, the fact that some users rarely view this part of the forum or catch sight of the threads posted here.

I fully understand that, but it still seems to me that, just by sheer numbers alone and not making assumptions about people's behavior, 750 is a decent percentage of the Neowin population. I'm not going to hazard a range here, but at the very least, Neowin has an "average" amount of LGBT users compared to the general population.

agreed -- I think the people who gravitate towards this poll may be biased in our (LGBT) direction...say that bias is worth 8%...we're still talking an average of around 10% which is what seems is an agreed to number of the LGBT population as a whole.

Damn. :) So any fellow Neowinians in LA wanna hang out? haha

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of

      This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
