I don`t hope they will simplify the relatively old but not bad i386/i686 architecture for these pcs. arm devices are so slow, and there wont change a higher cpu much (they do require not so much cooling normally and do save energy)

Reply to How do i make a non recolorable skin! in Skinning WinCustomize Forums

I do think that even some master skins are getting old with time. Think a bit about how people do download skins actually. If you haven`t published a theme in a month you will berely have one download for a theme. Thats an non pleasurant fact i did notice even on other themes sites. So why not publish a greyscale theme in year 2014? It would at least make people think about your other themes and some would comment. Also they are so few new greyscale the

Why? Because always using colors is boring and using half monochrome is also so common. See it as an retro theme for remembering old DOS times, where color screens have been not so sharp than colorless ones. I’m sure ill get at least one positive comment for it soon. regards bluedxca93

hi, the biggest error of all attempts of creating pseudo ai, is assuming that a robot could one day exactly be like a human on a bionic level. its fun to see that even ibm belives this. using an good voice and optical recognition method combined with a simple simulation and learning algorithm + a good random number generator + database program could do more than imitating human synapses what a waste of time xd. regards bluedxca93
