The car have drove to the other direction

Seems this cafe is still open after all these years and there are people in here. Well now I am back (ex Mr.Scienceman2000). Why I was few years absent was because I had an accident and got injured pretty badly. Really did not feel like going to forums anymore and instead focused on slowly recovering from getting somewhat up from web with crutches to walk somewhat fine. On the other hand that time gave me time to reflect things on life I was not happy at all with and which felt like they were holding me back. Finally gotten rid of them and now I finally get to live way I want.

Name has been changed.

Welcome to the MSFN!

I have used this forum some years ago but just today I decided to register. I like both new and old technology. I have started using technology when I was very young. Mainly I got even more interested in emulators and other older technology after watching videos from Druaga1 and OSFirstTimer.

Pretty much the title, the start button icon looks bigger when the taskbar is set to m icons. I have two images attached one from startisback, the second from regular windows 10 Here is startisback: Here is regular windows 10:

Back on topic please!

in europe you are unlikely to find spares for very old cars and they also want to apply more restrictions https://english.elpais.com/lifestyle/2024-01-17/is-the-european-union-going-to-ban-repairing-old-vehicles-to-force-the-purchase-of-electric-ones.html#

Back on topic, has anyone else using Thorium noticed it sometimes not loading web fonts? I've noticed it on this forum site which I use a lot - https://forums.digitalspy.com/ It looks fine in 360Chrome and Supermium, but not in Thorium, where it falls back to Times New Roman. The console shows many entries saying "OTS parsing error: Unable to instantiate font face from font data." I assume this is the cause.

@roytam1 On my Asrock z370 k6 board with 8700k cpu all my files without any cmpxchg8b are stable. But this is not the case for the 486 cpu. Strange. I think, it depends only on the simulation of cmpxchg8b in ntoskrnl.exe in the function ExInterlockedPopEntrySList. But I dont have a better idea until now for this simulation of cmpxchg8b there Dietmar

AGREED! I remember telling DOZENS of mobile phone users that were begging for their landline number to be trasnferred to their mobile that they are not thinking through the consequences.

The Industrial Revolution smartphone and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

But we have smartphone...

You could bypass W11's hardware requirements by installing it with Rufus.

My interest in scripts is specifically for security/privacy. So I block all HTTP website scripts in the browser. Almost all links to malwares content are HTTP. But with a simple rule in uBO you can do the same.

Check if you are in this situation: https://www.ghacks.net/2024/04/23/windows-11-24h2-wont-boot-if-the-pc-does-not-support-this-cpu-feature/ to check the CPU you can use CPU-Z which must be started from administrator account: https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

What do you drive? I drive an "Ungoogled Jeep with Chrome rims."

Very true. I only cite Proxomitron's POWER because if people want to STAY on XP, they can NOT do this just with polyfills alone. They will also need a way to do things that Proxomitron and Proxomitron ALONE can do. Two such examples that I required when still on XP + 360Chrome is the ability to "degrade" a CSS Level 4 :not() to a Level 3 :not() and the ability to "defuse" a CSS :where(). https://caniuse.com/?search=%3Anot()%20level%204 https://caniuse.com/?search=%3Awhere And only only ONLY with Proxomitron can you take a javascript section of code that is 150 pages long and rip 50 of those pages completely out and only send 100 pages to the browser. They are ripped out before the browser ever sees them, before uBO ever sees them, before NoScript ever sees them, before uMatrix ever sees them, et cetera. And they don't have to be 50 consecutive "pages", you can rip out page 2, page 12, pages, 20 thru 25, page 56, you name it. You can keep page 75 and the 200 words on page 75, but you can change 10 of those 200 words - before the browser ever sees them, before uBO ever sees them, et cetera.

Vintage vehicles don't have Google's software on-board, modern ones may do.

I've got better things to do than figure out what every site's inline script I visit does. A lot of it is non-free JavaScript (like Richard Stallman puts it), so you could say it's oppressive in a way. But you either trust the sites or you don't and I still have a little bit of faith, if I didn't, my existence would be completely unbearable. My brain only has limited capacity, so there's a lot of free code out there that I have trouble understanding as well. If regular expressions aren't your thing, Proxomitron won't be either.

And as @66cats argued somewhere, I'm having so much undescriptable fun!

Yeah, @chermany4ever, @NotHereToPlayGames started a very interesting thread about proxo somewhere in this forum. His efforts made me try proxomitron for a second time (first time in the early 2000s), but he is right: the proxomitron learning curve is steep, and there are ways to accomplish many things proxomitron offers, without the effort. I confess: I'm lazy. But if I had to stick to XP for internet matters, I would try it for a third (it's a charm) time. Until then, I'm still trying to run XP as a virtual desktop app in a mint environment. The constant efforts of many gentlemen/ladies(?) in this forum (cheers!) prevent me from doing (seriously) so at the time. Again, lazy I am.
