I thought Sneaux Leopard was Gold.

Or was that iPhone 3.0? Hmm... I think 3.0 is gold.

The iPhone OS 3.0 GM (gold master) has been leaked, meaning it's the same one that will be released on June 17.

I don't think this Snow Leopard build is RTM, but my guess it's at least an RC build.

As VP said on the keynote its "near final".It pretty much has everything we'll see in Gold and i doubt there will be any major changes

Rogers is hands down the worst? dont get me wrong, the situation in canada with 3 year contracts is pretty brutal, but with rogers at least we were able to use any voice only or voice and data to get the iphone 3G at a subsidized price. I spend around $55/month cdn including good voice plan, features & 6GB of data that can be used for tethering.. dont forget MMS either.. I dont see how I could be worse off than spending $70 usd with AT&T w/o tethering or texts..

Yes, maybe I exaggerated my statement a little bit.

However, I've been on Rogers for many years and they're service never changes. Whether your signing your first contract with them, or your 3rd contract with them, they still treat you horribly. I renewed my contract and was upgraded to a new phone, only to find a new SIM card in the mail too. When I phoned to figure out why I had a new SIM, I was told that my old number was being cut off unless I wanted to pay monthly for both numbers.

I told them to **** off and was told that I owed them a cheque for the remainder of the 3-year renewal I had "agreed" upon. Here in Canada, its almost like a monopoly if you ask me. Bell sucks, Teles sucks, Fido was great and Rogers bought them out.

AT&T is the worst. There in store are not only ignorant, their useless as well. What kind of company gives retail sellers the ability to create contracts but not the ability to cancel them!

I canceled my contract with them and about 3 months later got a nasty message from a credit agency that I owed them a little over $100. After investigating a little, I found out the charge was to a number I didn?t own. After 5+ call trying to get them to drop the charge and getting nowhere, I sent them a letter telling them to provide the contract with that number with my signature on it or shut up. I guess they figured out their mistake because sent me a letter telling me my balance was zero a week later.

    • I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
    • Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services by Taras Buria A new bug-fixing update is now rolling out to Firefox users in the Release Channel. Less than a week ago, Mozilla fixed crashes on Intel Raptor Lake processors with version 152.0.1. Now, Mozilla has prepared yet another set of fixes that address problems with localization, playback issues of certain MP4 files, and performance issues on website that perform various encryption operations at once. Here is the full changelog: Firefox 152.0.2 is now available for download from Mozilla's FTP. Existing installations will get the update over the next several hours. The latest version will also be available soon on the official website, the Microsoft Store, and Neowin's Software page. You can find Firefox 152.0.2 release notes in the official documentation. In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 152 earlier this month. The latest feature update brought reworked settings with a more streamlined user interface, JPEG XL support, new features for Private mode, a new way to mute a tab (just type "mute" in the address bar), and many more. You can find the complete changelog here. In other Firefox news, Mozilla recently published its roadmap, where the company detailed the upcoming Nova redesign and other features it plans to implement. Mozilla wants to make the new user interface easier to navigate and more modern, with a heavy focus on its privacy tools, such as its built-in VPN. If you are curious, you can already enable the new UI as described here.
