  1. Past hour
  2. Thanks for the tip! I will have a look at this preference once again when I am back at my machine.
  3. Yesterday, I did further testing of the hardware acceleration in New Moon 28, Serpent 52, Mypal 68 and Thorium. This feature now works in all of them but video hardware acceleration seems to be a problem. YouTube videos run best in New Moon 28 and worst in Thorium under my modest hardware conditions. Although video hardware acceleration has been enabled and confirmed in Thorium's chrome://gpu-internals page, it is more of a joke. At least, on my weak hardware. It does not accelerate anything and CPU utilisation is nearly 100%, regardless of the resolution.
  4. Hmmmmm........ MV2 extensions were allowed to create background pages. These pages allow running JavaScript code and keep state like variables for the whole browser session. Migration to stateless or non-persistent background pages is needed for MV3. Not counting service workers. The operation of an MV2 extension differs from an MV3 extension. P.S. However, switching or modifying (I understand although in my opinion it will be unnecessary) extensions from MV2 to MV3 is not the purpose of this thread.
  5. Try resetting the "disabled" one. I suspect it will disappear. Edit: tried the linked NM build, it definitely should disappear.
  6. Mileage will vary. But I have had some MV2 extensions migrate to MV3 and have EASILY downgraded back to MV2 just by overwriting my local MV2 with files from the newer MV3 and keeping the MV2 manifest format. But you do have to have your MV2 archived locally. MV2 or MV3, I myself *never* install directly from the Chrome Web Store.
  7. Yes, of course. Both preferences do exist in my New Moon 28 installation and profiles. I also use the most recent but standard (for SSE2 and up) version https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20240525-d849524bd-uxp-f8f3b3ee43-xpmod.7z
  8. Today
  9. The only question here is whether MSFN members are able to verify whether their extensions are already at MV3 or are always at MV2. Those who can verify it as I did,the better for them. The switch that will allow a disabled MV2 extension to be rehabilitated will be short-lived. If an MV3 extension is not chosen that will be offered as a replacement. Of course I personally do not care about all of the above.
  10. Pale Moon only has layers.acceleration.enabled AFAIK, which is a master switch for webpage compositing to use GPU and is also exposed as a checkbox in browser's settings. I assumed roytam1's version could be different, so I didn't say anything as his releases tend to deviate from upstream in random ways. Mozilla still uses layers.acceleration.disabled, so works the other way around, though newer versions have a bunch of related or not so related (depends on how you look at it) WebRender prefs, the traditional layers acceleration in considered legacy. The *prefer* prefs, these always made automatic selection of D3D9 on XP in UXP browsers in my experience, although I remember when I was messing with Mypal68 last time, you had to explicitly enable the D3D9 one. layers.acceleration.force can be used in addition to layers.acceleration.enabled to try force-enable it for unsupported configurations.
  11. I don't keep a running log, per se. I run each and every new release for about FOUR MINUTES and fully delete after those FOUR MINUTES. For me, it's because I compare directly to OFFICIAL UNGOOGLED and Thorium still makes some GOOGLE connections. Supermium CRASHES my system within NINETY SECONDS so from a stability standpoint alone, Thorium kicks Supermium's "arse". And from what I am seeing in the last 24hrs, BOTH are being flagged for "suspicious security vulnerabilities". I suppose it is the stability standpoint that has the Thorium thread so active here at MSFN but "nothing" on the Supermium thread - because it's too UNSTABLE for ANYBODY to actually USE.
  12. Tells me everything I need to know. People keep giving Supermium a "free pass" but flog Thorium every chance they get. Despite Supermium clearly being reported as having a trojan!
  13. Does anyone maintain a systematically logged, screencapped observation of Thorium connections?
  14. @NotHereToPlayGames, found this for you. "Windows Defender is acting like every other Anti-Virus ... I get the same thing with BitDefender. Saying "trust me it's fine" is not a way to reassure people. Please determine what in your code is flagging and get it whitelisted." https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Win/issues/75#issuecomment-2062321661
  15. "Thorium detected as threat by Norton 360 aswell..." "Suspicious process attempted to modify attributes of a file protected by Data Protector" "Target file was a system..." https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Win/issues/75#issuecomment-1768473145
  16. Well, there's such possibility, of course! But then why doesn't the author of Thorium clear this whole situation? He simply ignores. Just read yourself. When Supermium had false positives, they cleared it up pretty quickly.
  17. That would be a good idea. I also kept a few addons/installers on an old external HDD that I could contibute.
  18. AstroSkipper said: "These are the preferences layers.acceleration.disabled, which I now set from true to false," Hello AstroSkipper, I use PM28: (https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20240525-d849524bd-uxp-f8f3b3ee43-xpmod-sse.7z) My PM28 default setting is: layers.acceleration.enabled; true Is the name of your PM28 preference correct ? layers.acceleration.disabled or is the name layers.acceleration.enabled
  19. haven't check, just imported it to a local repo with official 38.8.0esr as base to see how many differences there. may try to work on it(either try to build it and fix errors that encountered, or even put some NM27 bits on top of it to produce a pseudo-NM27) later.
  20. Since I cannot guarantee the source code compiles properly, I should ask, does it work for you?
  21. https://codeberg.org/Nicholas_McAnespy/FxVC10Mods/releases
  22. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/96585bab134e3011bb25b7310243e5d384575e76408fb8adfd036f045b1013a0/detection BTW, this is with latest Supermium 122-R6 32-bit release ...
  23. Yesterday
  24. I no longer have Supermium on my computer. Everything removed. Unfortunately, Supermium ran poorly on my hardware, at least in the previous versions.
  25. since VC5 and VC6 uses same runtime (MSVCRT.DLL) so it won't crash. 1.5 or later since they have real tabs, not layers. BTW I wonder if you can upload the sources of your 38ESR-VC2010?
  26. Do you mind also scanning the notification_helper contained in Supermium? I know this is not the Supermium thread, but a comparison still seems to be in order.
  27. That thread also mentions "Floorp". I think it has been mentioned here at MSFN also. I have not tried it yet.
