If you can keep the design and get those RSS-like entries for Games, Software, Apple, Blogs and Forum posts would be awesome.

Speaking about RSS, the icons to the four RSS feeds for Main, Software, Gamers, and Forums are missing.

Maybe a small RSS icon beside each header (i.e. beside "Latest Main News" or to the menu's right edge) could be placed for each?

I'd like to +1 the requests for the forum posts on the front page. I *really* liked that box that used to be there that showed recent forum posts and *all* of the recent news articles from all categories in one box. With three different news sections, it seems dumb to me to have to go through three different menus to read all of the news.

I'd like to see a "Full" news page, but I know that's not going to happen. To me, all of the categories are important and should be visible somewhere *at a glance* on the front page. The old box was perfect for that.

One of the things that I like about /.'s front page scheme is that all of the news is right there instead of each section having its own page. Each section *also* has its own page, but the news is also on the front page (where news goes!!)

I realize that this is just one person's opinion, and I understand "too busy", but I still wanted to speak my mind on the subject. I just seems that by doing it the way it's being done, the software and gamers news take a backseat instead of sharing the spotlight with all other news.

It's all good. It should all be featured.

I really miss the recent forum posts as well guys. I think that it will lead to people using the forums a lot less. I'll often click on a news story from my RSS feed, but while I'm there I'll notice an interesting recent forum post at the top of the page and click on it. That won't happen any more though.

Please reconsider, guys. :(

I agree with everyone who is asking for the recent forums posts to be put back on the main page. That was one fo the best features on the frontpage! It's part of what attracted me to Neowin when I first started coming here, I miss it a lot.

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
