"The adjective antepenultimate has one meaning:

Meaning #1: third from last"

Does that mean there are 3 to go? Sorry if this has already been posted but its hard to keep up!

Well i was thinking more like 3rd prize ? or third from last in three is 1 so maybe its first prize lol

A few commnents:

1. I think all of this is practice for the "real" competition, like the annual Microsoft College Puzzle Challenge (...very similar)

2. We need some kind of place, maybe a dedicated forum with seperate threads (...please Neowin gods :) ) to work on this thing in a more organized way...we'll all have to take breaks etc... and can't be around all the time

Those links aren't online.....

He abbreviated vanishingpointgame.com

Duh.

zenith - derived from Arabic samt ar-ras 'the way or road above one's head'; zenith technically is the point directly above the observer and nadir is the point directly below

Now for the suduko lookin puzzle we have to solve.

The domain is registered to Go Daddy, and I know that Microsoft doesn't use them as their domain registrar.

Perhaps so, but the clues point to this being a viral marketing campaign run by a third-party company on behalf of Microsoft, so the registrar isn't really relevant.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
