Sorry to be a spoilsport, but I find this thread quite desperate. It seems that this thread is a free pass to spam anything you like. But most importantly, that fact Neowin has almost hit 8 million is amazing. So why tarnish that by using this thread to almost "cheat" our way to 8 mil. That fact that we got here by posting what we have posted, to contribute etc and then flood this thread with crap just to boost the amount. Power leveling almost. Seems to disrespect everything Neowin has worked for. But then again, this is all my E-pinion and that ultimately means nothing.

You use to be a subscriber... what happened?

I don't consider this a free pass at all, I just know we won't hit the 8-million mark in time, because this seems to be a slow couple of months... If you can't beat'em, join'em!

I see your toaster, and raise you a hammer, 4 standing bullets, and 2 knocked down!

I agree.

Radish?

Everyone is just having a bit of fun.

I've laughed more in here than I have in all my years on Neowin :p

To actually worry over a potential couple of hundred/thousand of posts of images/offtopic in here in comparison to the MILLIONS of helpful/useful ones on the way to 8 million is silly IMO :rofl:

But hey, if moderation wants people to stop talking nonsense/joking around in here, I can understand why and would respect it.

ps. As long as the 8millionth post isn't Rappy posting Pedobear, I'm fine with things ;)

Never a truer word spoken :yes:

/not the pedobear post

I think if any of the mods had a problem with this thread it would've been closed by now...

That said, it does seem like a truely spam thread but hey, it's funny and if it helps us meet the 8m mark who cares! :D

Oh and i thought it was high time this came up...

Well, there's egg and bacon; egg sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg bacon and spam; egg bacon sausage and spam; spam bacon sausage and spam; spam egg spam spam bacon and spam; spam sausage spam spam bacon spam tomato and spam;

I was going to say the samething, right down to rappy posting pedobear LOL

If a mod/admin didn't like the way this was going, it would be locked, we would all be banned, and no one would speak another word of it.

or are they waiting for the 8th million to pass, then do all of that LOL. It is only a bit of fun, and at least it is all in one topic, rather then scattered over the forum, making the mod's job harder.

I am still laughing over the cow smiling from a few dozen pages back.

I showed my girlfriend Pedo bear and she thought it was really funny.

She's 12.

that made me giggle

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
