Sorry to report but the Featuring who podcast has come to an end. Mainly because of 3 reasons.

1) Nobody actively wanted to be on the show.

2) 1/2 the people that were invited turned it down.

3) Quite a few of the people that actually accepted could never record. After given multiple opportunities.

It was fun while it lasted but hey ya never know, you might see me back in a new podcast in the future. Though I can assume it will be either a 1 or 2 man show with no interviews.

If you want to download the 8 episodes that were produced you can do so for a little while longer as my membership has been canceled for file droppler but it shouldn't take in effect until next month.

The Rss Feed and the Itunes has been canceled and probably already don't work.

This does not effect the upcoming interview with Neobond and Redmak called "The Birth of Neowin"

The questions have been submitted to both and I'm waiting to hear back for a time to record.

I hate to limit the guest to only people in the United States but the time difference makes it really hard to record as we usually record them at night. If you think you are someone who is a night owl and available during those hours, then shoot me a message, otherwise, sorry.

I agree, cool idea. It seems like you put a lot of effort into it. One suggestion though, some bumper or background music! It sounds like I'm eavesdropping on a telephone conversation (I guess in a way, I am). There are copyright free loops online, for example, to play softly in the background, or at the beginning.

Just listening to the first (or is it second?) episode with Aly Moore. Is she a Neowin person?

Listening to the DX10 / DX11 discussion right now. Nobody mentioned that LOTRO uses DX10 and looks ever more brilliant than it does with DX9 :)

Oh, and the AntiSpyware company was GIANT Anti-spyware. As a power user I kind of liked how it told me everytime something changed on my system. But it did spam you an awful lot with messages that were usually useless.

Windows Defender built on that technology but basically has no UI at all unless something is wrong (in fact, I've never actually seen it come up on Vista, I guess I'd have to install some spyware first).

And for the gun discussion... it is very difficult to shoot a moving target, even one that's just several feet away. It takes a lot of training to have even a fair chance of hitting one, and if the shooter is moving too, well, good luck with that.

    • Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Apple reportedly looks to blacklisted Chinese memory chips as RAM prices climb by Karthik Mudaliar Image via Apple Apple is reportedly trying to get a clearance from the Trump administration to buy memory from ChangXin Memory Technologies (CXMT) to get some relief from soaring DRAM prices. As per a report by the Financial Times, Apple approached the Commerce Department more than a month ago and also spoke to other officials and allies in Washington. For starters, CXMT is a company that's already been placed on the Pentagon's list of Chinese military companies. The Chinese company is the country's top DRAM maker. For Apple, the timing is certainly awkward but not surprising. Tim Cook had recently warned that Apple would have to raise prices because AI companies are buying up large amounts of memory for data centers, and just like that, Apple raised MacBook and iPad prices. Micron also recently revealed that customers have committed billions of dollars to secure memory supply years in advance, which shows us how aggressive securing infrastructure has become. This gives suppliers such as Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron more leverage, while pushing hardware makers to look for alternatives. CXMT is one of those alternatives, but not the simplest one. Apple has spent many years trying to diversify parts of its supply chain away from China, especially for final assembly, while still depending heavily on Chinese manufacturing and suppliers. Even domestic brands from China are moving towards CXMT and YMTC instead of relying on Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix. For Apple, though, it would invite more scrutiny than local Chinese companies. For now, this is more like a lobbying effort rather than a confirmed supply deal. There's no official statement from either of the parties. What is clearer, though, is the pressure behind such a request. AI demand has certainly made hardware a bottleneck, and companies are trying everything they can to bring things back to normal, even if that means making politically sensitive choices.

    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      I did test it a month or so back, but ... the results I expect to be on the first page are not there.

    • Hands on with iFlyTek AINote 2 E-Ink tablet: insanely thin and smart

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The iFlyTek AINote 2 is among the thinnest E-Ink tablets. It has an EMR stylus, a built-in fingerprint reader, and plenty of built-in AI features. You had me until "and plenty of built-in AI features." That and any company that still does the iProduct naming trope is an immediate pass. It suggests the company isn't very imaginative or creative and is trying to piggyback off another company's success. Extremely lame. Also kind of expensive. Better choices at lower prices out there.
