Neowin's Forum Game #1!

Found this Game by chance on another forum.

Here's how it works:

We start with a number - 500 that is.

Current round's rules [Round 23] (for older rules have a look at the bottom of this post):

Team A adds five (+5)

Team B subtracts ten (-10)

*********************************************************************************************************************************

Combo KICK (CK). If your Team has made four (4) posts* in a row, you get a combo kick, meaning the fourth (4th) post is worth TWO (2) posts.

*ROUND 23 ONLY: THIS ROUND HAS A CK COUNTER OF FIVE (5)!

*********************************************************************************************************************************

*********************************************************************************************************************************

You may post your number as picture. Don't exceed the shared limit of 2 pictures per page! (on default posts per page=15 posts)

We want the thread to stay fast loading, hence the limit, also please try to find middle to small sized versions of your pictures. No definite max resolution.

*********************************************************************************************************************************

Team A:

  • Every member whose member name starts with A C E G I K M O Q S U V or W
  • or if it starts with a number
  • WIN: If number reaches 1000.

Team B:

  • Every member whose member name starts with B D F H J L N P R T X Y or Z
  • or if it starts with a symbol
  • WIN: If number reaches .

OBVIOUSLY: Do not post consecutively

your id starts with a symbol . it should be 500

now 498

No it does not. His id is Mephistopheles - as you can see from the name in the quote in your reply. The + is just assigned to subscribers.

So yours was actually 500, not 498 (since you deducted on his behalf incorrectly). If the + was to be considered as part of the id, then your value would have been 496.

502.

    • HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival

      By Steven P. · Posted

      HONOR Robot Phone unveils first Cinematic Video at Shanghai International Film Festival by Steven Parker Global AI device ecosystem company HONOR announced on June 13 that its revolutionary HONOR Robot Phone made its professional imaging debut at the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF), demonstrating the result of its mobile videography capabilities for the first time. As the official mobile photography and videography partner of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival, HONOR empowers this premier cinematic event with cutting-edge mobile imaging technology. Marking the global debut of the first cinematic video it captured, Robot Phone breaks down the boundaries between mobile imaging and professional filmmaking, ushering in a new paradigm for the deep integration of technology and cinematic art. In the video published on HONOR’s official channel (above), Robot Phone was used byELLEMEN to capture cinematic video portraits for the SIFF jury members. With its exceptional stability and cinema-grade imaging capabilities, the device redefines the art of portrait filmmaking, faithfully reproducing the rich tonal gradations and nuanced color transitions associated with film photography. The result is a new level of visual sophistication, creating high-end cinematic imagery that seamlessly blends atmosphere with narrative tension. The video released for the Robot Phone showcases the powerful stabilization capabilities of its built-in gimbal system, delivering exceptionally smooth handheld camera movement while preserving full image quality. By minimizing reliance on electronic image stabilization, the device effectively avoids the image cropping and quality loss typically associated with digital stabilization methods. Representing an innovative leap in form factor, the HONOR Robot Phone features the industry's smallest titanium alloy gimbal, delivering ultra-precision, extreme flexibility, and superior stability. Driven by high-performance motors, the gimbal rises dynamically, breaking free from the physical limitations of traditional camera modules. Combined with advanced AI algorithms that enable intelligent object tracking and various movements with stable shots, the device significantly simplifies video creation and reshapes both the equipment choices and creative habits of modern users. Notably, the Robot Phone will be the first product that features the results of HONOR's strategic technological partnership with ARRI, the world-renowned designer and manufacturer of professional camera technology for cinematic storytelling. From Cannes to Shanghai, the HONOR Robot Phone continues to lead the mobile imaging industry into an entirely new stage of development. Moving forward, HONOR will leverage cutting-edge AI and mobile imaging technologies to unlock new creative possibilities and extend cinematic standards for visual expression from the world of high-end filmmaking to the next generation of content creators.

      I'll wait for the root cause analysis. Looks like it's HP, Lenova, and certain configurations that are askew, hardly "all of windows." Time will tell.

      I had issues with my NVME, it was running really slow (like 2/3 mb bandwidth) ... had to reverted via System Restore and all is fine now.
