Our neowin Clubs have gone, and it's ?3.99 to create clubs now :angry::

"At the moment there is no ongoing charge for running a Club but, in the future, we will introduce a fee (to be determined), which will be due every 30 days. We will not start charging a recurring fee earlier than 31st March 2009."

Who's gonna stump up for the "Official Neowin Club"?

They said clubs would cost a few weeks back when the beta kicked off.

I don't mind helping out towards one if we get a big enough NW base, but I'll hold out for now till things smooth out and we see how useful clubs could be.

32 people is the maximum that can join a club, 1 owner and 4 sub-owners I think.

Whats so special about a club that classifies it as premium content...?

Just wondering... not trolling

Not entirely sure all that's planned for them so far.

From the beta it was like a clan hideout.

Like an apartment, but it's called the clubhouse and up to 32 club members can occupy it at a time. Whoever buys it is clubleader, and you can have 4 sub-leaders.

There's a calendar and other stuff attached to update members. And in the beta there was a whiteboard... omgzzz! Haha.

Basically it looks like something that's clan/group orientated.

At the moment the maximum amount of people you can get in an apartment is 16.

I do think Neowin should have an official club though. Possibly run buy a member of staff?

I'd chip in

I've just been paid recently so we'll see :p

I'd rather get an idea of how many people on NW will actually first of all

a) Use their PS3 (we have a lot of actives in the PS3 forum who don't actually play games on their PS3s or even use it)

and

b) Have somewhat of an interest in Home, at least enough to say they'll use or keep track of the service if they ain't that keen just now

Cause if we only have like 6 potential members, it's not worth it :p There's a reason it's at a 32 cap!

Until I know more about clubs and their future potential, I'm a bit reluctant to pay for one as well. Fair enough there's no potential monthly fee till next year, but does that mean next year is when the big updates to them are planned?

Okay, I checked my bank balance and as I said just paid.

So, Neowin club, just search for "Neowin"

Only going to accept invites from people who actually use their PS3, as the club fills up at 32.

But to be honest I don't even know if we have 32 active PS3 NW members :laugh:

Just in case I can't sign in tonight, keep me a spot saved lol.

You think Home is THAT popular around here? LOL :laugh:

I'll hand out free booze to everyone if we reach 32 members by Christmas.

By the way it took me ages to get signed in :(

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.

    • VirtualBox 7.2.10

      By Copernic · Posted

      VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By FloatingFatMan · Posted

      OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
