I laugh at everyone trying 4 digit numbers even lower than 9009....

Id call but its 1.27 the call and I just want to be sure they wont be going to waste.

You do realize that you didn't explain this very well at all. Didn't even really mention that it was a contest, you said "Form a higher number than '2009' moving only 2 lines".

In all seriousness, if you are SURE this is the correct answer, I will PayPal you 500 (Hey Im poor and problably need it more than you do :p)

Just confirm it for me and Ill make the call.

So a 250 donation for you and Neowin?

Those are your terms. Glad to see nongreedy people :)

If you are wrong, would you be willing to PayPal the 1.27? :p

(Im kidding about that :p)

When you are 100% sure, just give me a "Call" reply :)

Call :)

Thank you :)

And thanks to all that have helped out. You can consider, since Ill be donating to Neowin, that each of you get a small portion of this since Ill be donating :)

Chucks...

Gotta wait a half hour it seems :s Then this contest will be back.

No doubt Ill be back in a half hour more or less.

You know these contests are a sham and each time u call it'll take you like 8 or 9 attempts to actually get through. Yet you will still be charged

How can they be a sham? Isnt illegal to advertise something like this?

Damn Quick Reply was right....

The problem it has been reset to 2000....And 2000 is a piece of crap...

Why is the contest a sham? I mean if you get it right, you get the money right?

New one:

Family dinner

5 invites

Prawns: 1500 gr.

Lamb: 2200 gr.

2 Sponge cakes made of chocolate with cherries

60 grapes.

Add up all the numbers.

I get 3767

They're a sham because you rarely ever get through, most of the people you hear on air are fakes. You can keep trying and trying and each time pay that $1.27 or whatever it may be, just to be told that the lines are busy but you were still charged

Let me guess, you saw this on one of those late night quiz show things. The question is obviously totally ambiguous. The real answer is probably something like 3.7... x10^47... how? Easy.. move two sticks to get:

2009qt1hd9.png

ie. 21,109^11

What those game shows basically do is take a few callers on air when there are not many people calling, then when there are loads of callers they don't take any to make you idiots think that it is a great time to call.

    • Free Software Foundation Europe pushes EU to force Google to allow AI uninstalls on Android

      I'm too old to return to the "good old days" when I was installing custom ROMs and tinkering with my devices - now I just want to turn it on and use it. I've read that banking and payment apps work on Murena /e/OS (I'll have to check the ones I use) and I also really want to support Fairphone 😉

    • NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      NVIDIA announces 35 new AI HPC supercomputers across Europe by Fiza Ali NVIDIA has announced that 35 AI high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers are planned to open throughout Europe this year. This marks what the company describes as the largest single-year expansion of AI infrastructure in the history of the continent. These new systems, unveiled at ISC High Performance 2026, will be placed at a number of national supercomputing centres, AI factories, and research institutes to provide advanced computing resources to more than three million researchers. Describing AI, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang stated, "AI is the new instrument of science, and Europe is building the infrastructure to put it in the hands of millions of researchers." Built on NVIDIA's Blackwell and Hopper architectures, the new systems will support research in climate science, healthcare, clean energy, quantum computing, and other scientific fields. Among the major projects are the Barcelona Supercomputing Center's MareNostrum 5 AI upgrade, BavariaAI's Blue Swan platform in Germany, Italy's IT4LIA AI factory, Germany's HammerHAI project, and Sweden's Mimer AI Factory. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center plans to expand MareNostrum 5 with NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 and GB200 NVL4 systems. In total, the BSC expects to deliver up to 20 exaflops of AI training performance and 33 exaflops of AI inference performance. This increased computational capability will support research efforts related to climate modelling, biotechnology, energy systems, etc. Furthermore, as part of the IT4LIA project, more than 8,000 GPUs, each based on NVIDIA’s GB200 NVL4 architecture, will be used in Italy. This represents one of the largest AI factory initiatives announced to date. Additionally, the Blue Swan platform from BavariaAI will include about 1,000 GPUs to help develop multimodal AI models for use in the medical field, robotics, and various areas of scientific research. NVIDIA also emphasized in the announcement how rapidly growth of accelerated computing usage is taking place within both energy and climate-related research. The company said Siemens Energy uses NVIDIA-powered technologies to significantly accelerate the process of designing and simulating hydrogen-capable gas turbines. Using those same acceleration technologies, Siemens was able to reduce simulation time by up to 77 percent. The company also highlighted several quantum computing initiatives across Europe. CINECA, EuroHPC, and Pasqal are integrating a quantum processing unit into Italy's CINECA supercomputing centre using NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform. Meanwhile, researchers at Germany's Julich Supercomputing Centre recently simulated a universal 50-qubit quantum computer on the JUPITER supercomputer. The announcement demonstrates Europe's continued commitment to building out its infrastructure supporting AI and supercomputing as governments, research organizations, and technology companies compete to build out their respective computing capacities and secure their positions in advanced scientific research.
