:blink: umm.. where did you hear this from?

PC Beta, I hate to get another warning just for posting forum link, if you confirm it's OK then I'll post the thread link.

And who says this is RTM??????

From what I have heard Windows 7 willl not hit RTM until Augest!

I know, the better word is pre-RTM. :)

This kind of looks fake. With the RC just released, I do not think this will be the RTM if it is infact true. Since when do you check mark items you want to download?

It's the RTM branch. not the actual RTM. Also, I think RTM will finish on 7200 I think, certainly heading that way.

What are we seeing here? Looks like screenshots of Explorer and Firefox opened in IE? Why? Who has IE as the default image viewer? Smells fishy to me...

This is a creen-shot of my IE8 viewing the screen-shot of that guy's explorer and firefox.

To fake the explorer downloading is relatively simple, but to fake all that build strings of Connect? It takes quite a lot of trouble, who would do that just to post a screen-shot in the first place?

Well given that it's been found that some of the leaked builds including the RC came with a trojan that software scanners couldn't detect that allowed the author to collect data including bank card details and your address I won't be using any more leaked builds. It's far too risky and you never know what's been done to it especially if anti virus/spyware/malware programs can't detect possible trojans.

I do agree there is always risk using leaked builds, BUT just depends from what source they are and until now russians never let us down, you know until you burn once its fine to play with a fire :) (and not like im using computer for anything "important")

    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • You've tried DuckDuckGo and Brave Search, now get serious with SearXNG

      By zikalify · Posted

      OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
