:&: I don't want my thread buried in the thread cemetery. I don't want to see my thread again. :&:

Does anyone know where is the link for the Neowin Back Stage Pass? I can't find it.

Content that isn't PG-13 cannot stay in the public areas.

Subscribers get porn? Don't they know it's free on Google.....

Yea, but not of each other. :rofl:

We don't get "pron", we get to to admire a good portion of the female body and discuss it. :p

Of course as mentioned there are also other things besides that that can't be kept in the public part of the forum that we have there.

Quite so, I need to read BSP more often to see what kind of goodies are there again.

They're the kind of goodies that rappy's hard drive is full of :p + other NSFW subjects (but mostly rappy and his babes)

isn't that what the Members' Metropolis is for?

Think of this as the NC-17 forum :p

Members Metropolis is protected from guests and search engines but our 13 year old members can still wander in there and get hopelessly lost in pile of teenage sexual angst. We still want to limit that language that they hear and the content of what they see.

I wouldn't call it Back Stage Pass, but "Rappy's Hard Drive" LOL

We have given enough away already, I think what happens in BSP, stays in BSP :)

I can just see the amount of subscribers going up now :p

I can list a few reasons why Neowin is secured against this.

1) it says you must be 18 (i think) years or older, OR with parents permission.

- Parents should know what their kids are browsing on the internet at all times.

2) there is a thread inside BSP, telling people that is not safe for work usage.

also, what stops a 13 year old from disabling the google preference filter, and surfing the images? Samething, only ours is more tasteful :)

    • Louis Rossmann suing Samsung over "990 Pro SSD warranty scam"

      By dustojnikhummer · Posted

      But it opens the floodgates to anyone who gets a refund instead of a replacement (since refund will buy you a 1/3rd of the capacity it did years ago)

      He has planned to file a lawsuit in small claims court so it'll only be a $1000 lesson assuming he wins. That's likely a fraction of what Samsung spends on toilet paper on a daily basis.
    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
