xpde linux site access denied why?


Recommended Posts

It's not shut down, microsoft has NO grounds to file lawsuit since they themselves defeated a lawsuit from apple about "look and feel". it was ruled you cannot copyright a "look and feel" so XPde is here to stay.

Obviously some of you in this thread have never seen a slashdotting ;)

i've download it last week, install & properly configure it using enclosed instructions.

All I can Say about it is, It just SUCK......

Only it show you the fuqin Graphics of Windows 2k.....& nothin else.

the Menus not working.....(like when dbl click on My computer, it do nothing,& simillar to my doc's. when right click on desktop choose properties, it just show some useless buttons)

they need huge improvement to this project.

My personal opinion to this garbage is, Its a Big Joke with Linux Users.

Yes the site has been getting raped with the heavy hitters (/., OSnews, neowin itself) all mentioning the site within a couple days. So I'm sure it'll return once people stop hitting it so much.

If you want Linux to look like Windows though, you can always install Lycoris or Lindows (ugh).

Yeah, they shouldn't have declared it stable and said it was finished. Oh, wait, THEY DIDN'T. Notice how the version number is less then one? That means it's PRERELEASE software. It is mearly a preview. Save your bitching till at least there is a 1.0 version out the door.

Well said. Too many people complain after running alpha/beta releases of software as if it were labeled a stable or final release by the developer. The versioning system is there for more than just PR or gimmicks.

    • Mistral AI's new 'Magistral' models bring traceable, faster AI reasoning by Paul Hill One of Europe’s leading AI companies, Mistral, has announced the availability of its Magistral reasoning model. It comes in two versions: there is the open-source Magistral Small (24B parameters) and the enterprise-focused Magistral Medium. Magistral has been designed to better handle domain-specific tasks such as law, finance, and engineering. It shows users the model’s thought processes so that it’s more transparent, and it supports multilingual reasoning to perform better when tasked with answering non-English queries. Key features and performance Mistral compared its new models against DeepSeek R1 in various benchmarks. Ones that stood out were its results on AIME2024, which assesses reasoning capabilities. Magistral Medium scored 73.6% (90% with majority voting @64) while Small scored 70.7% (83.3% respectively). If you’ve used DeepSeek R1, you’ll have seen it thinking before answering. Magistral now does this too and can do it across multiple languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Arabic, Russian, and Simplified Chinese. Interestingly, there’s also a Flash Answers mode that speeds up the thinking for 10x faster responses compared to competitors. Real-world applications and availability Thanks to the expertise Magistral has been trained on, organizations across multiple fields, including legal research, financial forecasting, and regulated industries, may be able to turn to Magistral for more reliable answers. Its traceable reasoning also makes it ideal in regulated fields for compliance and auditability. Magistral Small, the open-source model, is available under an Apache 2.0 license via Hugging Face. Magistral Medium is accessible through Mistral's Le Chat and via API on La Plateforme. It’ll also be arriving soon on Amazon SageMaker, IBM WatsonX, Azure AI, and Google Cloud Marketplace. The easiest way for readers to try it out is on Mistral's Le Chat platform; just head to chat.mistral.ai to get started. Source: Mistral
    • Didn't know this thanks, useful.
    • I had to check your comment history to see what you were referring to here. One word... Wow! I asked him myself. LOL
    • Why do you care? Is he your uncle or something? LOL Oh no! Someone made a remark about your favorite blogger you read everyday so you are personally offended.
    • I've been on the 16 beta, since beta 1, and just received the QPR beta 2 today. Nova launcher and no issues. I noticed that two about lack of updates.
