Hello,

I cannot access the main news, when i navigate to Neowin it automatically loads the software news, and when i click 'Main' it also loads software even when the URL ends: /index.php?category=main

I am using Firefox 2 RC1, but it also did this on previous betas etc, but i very much doubt it is my browser....

So for some reason yesterday, I clicked on something and now I can't fix my main Neowin landing page. Normally when I go to neowin.net the "main news" displays. Since yesterday, I cannot get the main news to display, it defaults to "Software" news when I load the site, and even when I click on "Main" it just stays as the software news.

Call me a newb after 4 years on Neowin, but how in the world do I get this fixed?! (Clearing all browser cache/etc. did nothing).

Thanks! :blink:

The sections seem to be copies of one another

Is it possible you have set the main page to also show gaming news?

Scroll to the bottom of the page and find the dropdown box there, change it to say Main, and the page will only show main news.

Hi and hello.

For two or three days now I am getting exactly the same content on the main page as on the software page. I've tried flushing cache, reloading, using other computers... no difference. It clearly loads the main page (color scheme is correct), but the news are the ones from the software page.

So... now what ? :blink:

      Looks like no official TBW rating, which should be a required listing in my opinion for sites like Amazon (hell, put it on the box too.)

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I think I understood the article fine. Online password managers open users up to more possibilities of getting hacked, and due to KeePass being offline and local it reduces the idea of getting hacked. If someone chooses to put their database online they're kinda missing the point. With regards to the idea of the on-prem idea, I would have two issues. I'm not sure about the first issue, but I wouldn't be surprised about them offering a cloud storage for the passwords that most wouldn't bother to switch off, regardless of if they went for on-prem or not. The second issue is that the on-prem solution for Bitwarden costs money, whereas KeePass is free and open-source (as far as I am aware). The article points out how to sync the database between devices, and I recognise that deficiency in security. But it isn't a necessity. So both services can offer a same idea, but one is free and the other isn't...choices, choices.... But to each their own.

    • The Light of Life? We actually do glow till our Death, study finds

      By +Good Bot, Bad Bot · Posted

      I am not surprised because life is the product of a lot of biochemical and physical processes that releases various energies as a by-product. The only thing new here is the detection of these photon emissions. The researches noted this "glow" is not a metaphysical one. They don't even immediately end when one is dead. Things like fires, light bulbs, and on a bigger scale stars release a lot more "light" and they are hardly alive.
