Windows XP stops selling 

 

 

Well, it's officialy now. Along with Bill Gates, Windows XP is in retirement.

 

Microsoft will still offer support for the six-year old operating system through 2014 but users are now forced to buy Windows Vista.

Once computers loaded with XP have been cleared from the inventory of PC makers such as Dell Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Co., consumers who can't live without the old operating system on their new machine will have to buy Vista Ultimate or Vista Business and then legally "downgrade" to XP.

 

Microsoft will still allow smaller mom-and-pop PC builder shops to buy XP for resale through the end of January. A version of XP will also remain available for ultra-low-cost PCs such as the Asus Eee PC.

This is an easy explanation for dummies

 

There is 1 big operative system that control all Windos but there is other 2 that are starting to move this monopoly 1 Linux 2 unix (whit his new operative system lepard) what happend

 

lets start whit the easy thing

 

¿WHY MICROSOFT IS 1 OF THE BIGGEST RICHEST MONOPOLYS EVER?

 

well when windows start what bill gates did is the Great idea  of not sell his operating system he license his operating system for a determinated time (whit this he makes all the biggest companys of the world depend of his programs) whit this simple method and crashing the competence he make the biggest monopoly of the world

 

but how ? for example the system that unix show to the world is 20000 times better than windows so what did billy gates do? he buy 30% of the actions of Macintosh and make sure that the only computers that use that operating system  where the machines they do ................

 

linux , the biggest problem of linux are:

Disadvantage #1 - Learning curve

 

I won't lie to you; Linux is going to take some time to learn. I know that our society likes to be instantly gratified. Learning Linux is definitely worth your time, but to really master it, you will need to spend some good time in front of your machine tinkering with things. Don't expect to be an expert after reading something like “Linux for Dummies”. If you are contemplating this for your company, you will need to budget some money for training and learning time.

 

Disadvantage #2 - Equivalent programs

 

While I gave the example before of an office suite of programs that is working well, there are still applications that do not exist in Linux. Thankfully, this list has become much more narrow in recent months. You will want to think carefully when you switch to Linux about what programs you currently use, and if they have Linux support for them. It may not make sense for you to switch if you are going to spend tons of time converting databases and application data.

 

Disadvantage #3 - More technical ability needed

 

You will want to make sure that you train someone in Linux really well. Alternately, you could hire someone who has experience with Linux. A good Linux administrator needs to be on hand as you start to migrate your systems over. This is a disadvantage financially, at least in the beginning. You may find over time, however, that you only need a temporary administrator to handle the routine tasks.

 

Disadvantage #4 - Not all hardware compatible

 

Some of the latest and greatest hardware that is being produced is not compatible with Linux. At least, not yet. The people that contribute program code and drivers to the Linux kernel are great at including support fairly quickly. Until that time, not everything you buy for hardware in your system may work. I've had to rely on third-party drivers and other means to make hardware like a new Ethernet card work. Eventually, the support will be built in. One thing you can do is before your purchase, ask if the hardware vendor has support for Linux. Some manufacturers do write their own Linux drivers and distribute them with your purchase, making it very easy to integrate with your existing system.

 

Conclusion

 

Linux is a very viable operating system for your business. While initially requiring a significant investment in training and development, your company may see the benefits of having a great, stable operating system that is a real workhorse. Linux is not only a great server, it is also a good workstation, and with the many programs available, can lower the costs of software licensing fees for you.

    • Roblox has become one of the world’s most influential user‑generated gaming platforms, attracting millions of players and creators every day. What makes Roblox unique is that it is not just a place to play games—it is a place where anyone can build their own. With Roblox Studio, even complete beginners can design immersive worlds, interactive experiences, and full‑fledged games. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to create your first Roblox game, while also helping you understand how features like Roblox Robux fit into the creator ecosystem.       1. What Is Roblox Studio and Why Use It? Roblox Studio is the official development environment used to create every game on the platform. It is free, accessible, and designed for creators of all skill levels. Whether you want to build a simple obstacle course or a complex simulation game, Roblox Studio provides the tools you need. The platform’s success comes from its user‑generated content model. Players can create games, publish them, and even earn Roblox Robux through in‑game purchases, game passes, or developer products. While earning Robux is not the focus for beginners, understanding its role can motivate you to improve your creations over time.   2. Setting Up Roblox Studio Before you start building, you need to install and set up Roblox Studio. Steps to get started Download Roblox Studio from the official Roblox website. Install and open the application. Log in using your Roblox account. Choose a template or start with a blank Baseplate. For beginners, templates like Obby, Village, or Racing provide a structured starting point. They include pre‑built elements that help you learn how different parts of a game work.   3. Understanding the Interface Roblox Studio may look overwhelming at first, but each panel has a clear purpose. Learning the interface early will make your development process smoother. Key panels Explorer: Shows all objects in your game world. Properties: Displays editable settings for selected objects. Viewport: The 3D workspace where you build your world. Toolbox: Contains free models, scripts, and assets. Home / Model / Test tabs: Provide tools for building, editing, and testing. Spend a few minutes clicking around, selecting objects, and adjusting their properties. This hands‑on exploration helps you understand how everything fits together.   4. Building Your First Game World Once you’re familiar with the interface, it’s time to start building. Using Parts Roblox Studio uses “Parts” as the basic building blocks. You can insert: Blocks Spheres Cylinders Wedges These can be resized, rotated, and moved to create platforms, walls, buildings, or obstacles. Using the Toolbox The Toolbox allows you to drag pre‑made assets into your game. This is extremely helpful for beginners, but choose assets carefully. Some community models include unnecessary scripts that may affect performance. Look for items marked as “Verified” or created by trusted developers. Organizing Your Workspace As your game grows, organization becomes important. Use folders in the Explorer panel to group objects logically: “Obstacles” “SpawnPoints” “Decorations” Good organization saves time and prevents confusion later.   5. Adding Gameplay with Scripts Roblox games use Lua, a beginner‑friendly scripting language. You don’t need to be a programmer to start, but learning basic scripting will greatly expand what you can create. Simple scripts you can try Making a part disappear when touched Creating a moving platform Adding checkpoints Giving players speed boosts Here’s a simple example: a script that prints a message when a player touches a part. Lua: local part = script.Parent   part.Touched:Connect(function(hit)     print("A player touched the part!") end) Even small scripts like this help you understand how interactions work in Roblox.   6. Testing Your Game Testing is essential. Roblox Studio provides several testing modes to simulate gameplay. Use the “Play” button to: Walk around your world Test scripts Check spawn points Look for bugs Ensure platforms and obstacles work correctly You can also use Play Here, Run, and Play Solo to test different aspects of your game.   7. Adding UI and Game Logic A polished game needs more than objects—it needs user interface elements and clear rules. Common UI elements Timers Score counters Health bars Buttons Pop‑up messages You can create UI using ScreenGui objects inside the StarterGui folder. Roblox provides templates for text labels, buttons, and frames, making it easy to design simple interfaces.   8. Optimizing Your Game A smooth game keeps players engaged. Here are some optimization tips: Remove unused parts and scripts. Avoid too many moving objects. Use low‑poly models when possible. Test on mobile devices—many Roblox players use phones. Keep lighting simple to improve performance. Optimization ensures your game runs well for all players, not just those with powerful devices.   9. Publishing Your Game Once your game is playable, you can publish it to Roblox. Steps to publish Click File → Publish to Roblox. Enter a name, description, and genre. Choose whether the game is public or private. Set permissions and access settings. After publishing, you can share the link with friends or the Roblox community. If you eventually want to monetize your game, you can add game passes or developer products that players can purchase using Roblox Robux. This is optional for beginners, but it becomes important as your game grows.   10. Improving Your Game Over Time The best Roblox games are updated regularly. After publishing, pay attention to: Player feedback Bug reports Suggestions from friends Analytics (visits, playtime, retention) Add new levels, improve visuals, or introduce new mechanics to keep players coming back.   11. Learning and Growing as a Creator Roblox provides many resources to help you improve: Roblox Creator Hub Developer Forum YouTube tutorials Community Discord servers The more you practice, the more confident you’ll become. Many successful developers started as beginners just like you—and some now earn significant amounts of Roblox Robux through their creations.   Final Thoughts Creating your first Roblox game is an exciting journey. You don’t need advanced skills or expensive tools—just creativity and curiosity. Start small, experiment with templates, learn basic scripting, and gradually build your skills. With time and persistence, you can create a game that players around the world will enjoy.
    • Hello it seems you can't receive PMs, it won't let me, do you use discord?
    • Hello after returning to lineage 2, I was wanting to start some local server development for a few friends and me to play around with but for some reason I'm having trouble after so many years to find a stable high five client. The clients I have found either have crash issue, many errors in the client log files or freeze after only a day or two of playing (autofarming for a day for example, you'll go to teleport after a farm session and the client freezes).   I've played a few High Five servers and it seems a lot of them have been able to optimize it to avoid these problems.  We are running multiple clients per PC so this does sound essential.   I've heard one major feature that is helping client stability is the ability to clear cache/memory without restarting the game or something along those lines.   So I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of obtaining a High Five client that is clean, optimized and decrypted to be able to add customs items etc. for a fair price.
