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! :)

    • 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 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.
