Great work

Gimie

I agree, the signature is the one who suits me better, I really love the red theme, but Im tired of the pink part in coughdrop, so I need to find a totally red theme now :evil: :paranoid:

here?s a screen of my red desktop, the best desktop I ever had (except for the pink part)

I don't know whats up, but i've tried 3 different versions including the latest version of True Launch Bar on my Windows XP and i get the same problem everytime, its very very SLOW! :(

When selected to load, it takes about 30secs to show, then when i move it out of the taskbar it takes 10.

Even worse, when i boot into Windows, after the log-on screen, it takes a a whole 2-3mins to load up the True Launch Bar!

Why is it so slow for me?

Maybe it only work for FAST PCS?

I have P3 500mhz with 192mb of ram, Windows XP works fine.

I'm using a Aqua theme for my taskbar/desktop, could that make any difference?

Any ideas people?

are you using alpha blending in your TLB menus?

Alpha Blending, i've heard of it, but i'm no expert, how can i check if its active or not?

Is it in the settings/options tab, cuz i can't find it or has it got something to do with StylesXP maybe?

Another thing, when loading, the taskbar is completely frozen!

P.S. Saint Dark (Hehe), your red themed desktop, i didn't see the pink, i saw it as just another shade of red :p

Thx for the help!

alpha blending is transparency, if your menus are transparent you?re using it

hey guys,

sorry i'm a little out of it, but how do you get the clock in the systray to show more than just the time? ie "Wednesday, January 2 11:13PM"?

dang, i had another question, but i can't remember, hehe :ditsy: maybe i'll remember later.

**EDIT** a-ha, i remembered. what's with the transparent mIRC? is that using glass, or is there some feature in mIRC that i don't know about?

ciao,

joe

ps. i'm on break now, but as soon as I get back to *MY* comp, I'll have a new desktop to show.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
