You know you've been on Neowin too long when...


Recommended Posts

When you realize that your stark naked while checking Neowin.net........

When you come to the conclusion that "is neowin right for you?"

When people ask what you do for a living and you just blantly say "NEOWIN"

Or you do emotions in real life.... :no: :yes: :unsure:

When you start to Hail Neowin.net as the "Savior to all of Man kind"

...you have a nice face tan (or sun burned) because of the monitor radiation.. :p

...you install a pc behind your bed just so you can browse neowin while you are having sex :rofl:

**changed second one a bit... proper english now**

Come to think of it I remember Keldyn designing a little wallpaper for me a long while back :p I probably still have it somewhere (i dunno where)... now he's just a lowly moderator ;) Gotta say though Neowin has sure changed a lot since I first came (and no that's not necissarily a bad thing) some completely random things I remember (with no explanations, just random things!): Neowin before Hosttyme, the old theme, when Tingle was still around, scoobie, faction, moretensenj (if i recall correctly he made a big stink about how we deserved what we got on 9/11), when Neobond used his real name around the site... ah the memories :p

And I just had the sudden urge to type this... I hope its not a sign of addiction :/

Keldyn

Forum Super Moderator for Neowin.net :blink:

...when your samurize script includes World News, Neowin News, Neowins Latest Forum Posts.

...when you have to stop lurking and post once a while so that people remember who you are.

...when you think you've lurked for so long that people will look at the joined date, compare it with the post count, and cast you off.

...when people who joined only a month ago have a higher post count that you already and you're damn embarrased!

...when you feel really depressed and lonely, with nothing to do, because Neowin is down.

...when you start wishing for the day Neowin lets you donate your hard earned cash!

...when you remember the weeks when Keldyn (I think it was Keldyn anyway) disappeared from the site for a few weeks and absolute panic broke out in the community - we were all worried!

...when your member number is in the hundreds (Only just mind you!)

    • Just remember - Microsoft is a trillion dollar company. They didn't have to raise the price this high. They chose to.
    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility by Taras Buria If you use PowerToys on Windows 11 or 10, you probably know that the app has quite a few utilities for window management. Fancy Zones, Always on Top, Crop and Lock, just to name a few. Soon, Microsoft will add another one, and fans of Alt + Tab should be excited. Proposed by Clint Rutkas, the module has a very simple idea: use a keyboard shortcut to toggle between windows within one app. For example, if you have four browser windows open, Alt + ` will let you switch between them just like Alt + Tab switches between all running apps. Here is the utility description from its GitHub pull request: Like other PowerToys utilities, Alt Window Cycle will offer shortcut customization. You will be able to use default shortcuts (Alt + ` for the next window or Alt + Shift + ` for the previous one) or remap them to something else. For now, there is no information on when Alt Window Cycle will arrive, so we will have to wait for the next PowerToys feature update (Microsoft usually pushes them on a monthly basis). Recently, Microsoft released version 0.100, which reworked the shortcuts guide, introduced an extension gallery for Command Palette, and more. Shortly after, version 0.100.1 arrived as a bug-fixing update. PowerToys is available on Windows 10 and 11, and you can get the app from the official GitHub repository, the Microsoft Store, or winget. Although Windows 10 is no longer supported, PowerToys developers currently do not plan to drop the now-unsupported operating system. And with Microsoft giving Windows 10 one more year in the Extended Security Update, you can expect PowerToys to remain available on Windows 10 for quite a while.
