Just so there's no confusion or anything - I voluntarily stepped down from the mods group :(

Unfortunately I just have too much on in my life to properly commit guaranteed hours to Neowin every week to do the moderators job justice - I did ponder this before I accepted it, and talked with Barney about it, and thought it'd be ok but after a few weeks at it, I already realised I just didn't have the time and handed in my resignation.

Back to being an MVC for now :) Cheers.

Shame :/ Good on you for being upfront (Y) Moderating does take up a good chunk of your free time.

your never going to become one if you ask

Indeed, those people who ask are immediately put on the "blacklist" :ninja:

Radish?

The initiation ceremony wasn't that bad - was it?

Best of luck with whatever you've got going on :).

A Global Mod made a double post?

Commence your divisions by 0.

Thanks guys. It was a tough decision as Neowin is a great community - but again, I felt it was unfair to tie up a moderator position when I realistically couldn't give it the attention it deserved. I knew it would only have lead to 'awkward conversations' later on down the line when I hadn't been giving enough time to it! I didn't want to have to put any of the g-mods / owners in that position so thought I should bow out now.

If my circumstances change (i.e. I drop out of the other forums I moderate for whatever reason!) I'll be sure to check and see if you still need (or want!) extra help moderating! :)

    • The memory and nvme can be swapped and upgraded with standard parts. But the GPU cannot, which is the weakest part of the box. It's a dead product at these prices.
    • Sounds like the debloated build you are running is missing some components that the Photos app and Snipping Tool rely on.
    • Apparently, Microsoft doesn't use water in their taps, washrooms or clean their facility. /sarc
    • Wow, throwback.  VERY VERY briefly - but realised that it wasn't the language I needed for the tasks I was taking on.
    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
