we got 5 more months to get 300,000 posts

acording to previous months statistics we should be able to do it, unless we have a sharp decline in posts.

i want to see how many posts we've had this month since the announcement :D

I assume it would be a lot more!

I expect the number of PM's to be higher this month, as well as forum posts, but not topics.

for the month of june, I predict that we will see a shortage of topics and forum posts, but an increase of PM's... thanks to games like Neowin Mafia

If you tally the numbers from just the month of May, you will see we only hit 66,000 posts.. and we need on average, 70,000+ to actually hit our goals.

According to the average ppm (posts per month), we will hit 7,983,939 posts by Oct. 1st, but that is based on averages, which don't apply due to forum expansion (exponential growth). I am estimating about 8,069,787.7 posts by Oct. 1st 2008 :p. Can we place bets on numbers and whoever is closest wins the Vista Ultimate x64? I think that would be much more fun :D

That is a good idea, on betting who is closest to the actual post count on October 1st. But people would need to put there numbers in before june.. or else it won't be fair :p

I guess I need to increase my spam post count :D

    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.

    • Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
