  2. I think we have to take Shane's word for it that the patch has been applied to Supermium 132. As I said earlier, it's an ESR version, which surely should be capable of having the patch applied to it, as it should be fully supported until the next ESR version is released. I'm not sure how we can test whether the patch has been applied successfully or not.

  5. Then it's a good idea to use the patched ungoogled for Server 2008 R2. No one knows and no one can guarantee how good and when the old 132 Supermium will (ever?) be patched for that serious vulnerability. https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Chromium-for-windows-7/releases/tag/ungoogled-chromium_138.0.7204.96 Edit/ They say it's been patched in R5. But in the article they say the patch is for 138+! Contradictory. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/releases/tag/v132-r5

  7. off topic: after using for 5 years and wrote ~90TB, my SN750 1TB lost from system first time. following experience from last time, I grabbed my unconnected idle 970evo+ and did a quick clone and let SN750 idle without electricity instead. time to find another m.2 stick with DRAM.

New build of post-deprecated Serpent/moebius for XP! * Notice: This repo will not be built on regular schedule, and changes are experimental as usual. ** Current moebius patch level should be on par with 52.9, but some security patches can not be applied/ported due to source milestone differences between versions.

Now - I don't have to use SeaVGABIOS and Longhorn bootmgr 5472 loader.

  11. Thanks for linking! Unfortunately, such comparisons are not particularly useful. It also depends considerably on other components such as the RAM memory, north and south bridge, the bus clock, the graphics adapter, processor features, hyper-threading and so on.

  12. Not quite true. I use both my old Windows XP computer and my Android tablet for what you call "real work". And in some special cases, a notebook with Windows 7 and Windows 10. But that was not the point here. Anyway! This thread is actually about Mypal 68, and I am happy to confirm that this browser works well on my old hardware. And much better when optimised.

There is/will be a setting to disable shading for confused ones [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\StartIsBack\DarkMagic] FadeDisabled = (DWORD)0 There are acrylic effects alright, but it's not supposed to be pure black, maybe extra tweaks on your system.

  29. New version now released, Supermium 132.0.6834.224 R4. This release of Supermium includes various changes and improvements, including: (#1412) - Option to disable autoplay introduced in chrome://flags, #disable-autoplay (#1403) - --force-dark-mode option introduced to deal with possible issues with white flashes in dark mode. However, some flashes may still appear due to caching of previous page views (#1445) - chrome://version uses Supermium branding (#1441, #1433, #1398, #1400) - Small changes to default metrics, particularly affecting v109 and CR23 tab styles (#1438) - New tab button fixed in place (and the tab close button should no longer overlap favicons) (#1411) - Download link now appears by default in chrome://downloads, as opposed to referrer link (issue unassigned) - #disable-gpu-driver-bug-workaroundsnow available in chrome://flags Some small mitigations have also been introduced for crashes in portable configurations on Windows 7.

  30. The separate installer for Windows 10 and 11 was introduced to apparently mitigate some hard to pin down issues which only appeared on those operating systems. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/releases/tag/win10_11-test-v1 What the differences actually are, I don't know, but the separate installer has remained on all subsequent releases. I've never used it on Windows 10, because I've had no problems with the standard version.

  31. That is, the breaking of the engine or V8 by author continues. The question is for what reason? The author doesn't have to do anything with it to maintain legacy OS compatibility.

  32. Does anyone else use Supermium with Instagram? The reason I ask is because recent versions for me seem to have trouble with the overlays which should come up if you click on the link in a post to view the comments. What often happens for me is that the screen darkens down, but the overlay does not appear. The only way I can view the whole list of comments is to open the link in a new tab, which I shouldn't have to do. The equivalent overlay on Facebook works fine. I'm pretty sure this isn't being cause by any of my extensions. I did suspect uBlock, but I've switched it off on IG and the problem is still happening.

  33. I think MSFN could benefit from a Compile Chromium thread/tutorial. I myself have "successfully" compiled Chromium but I've had to take bits and pieces from four (or more, don't recall now) different "tutorials" found online. I ended up with something that would "launch" and "browse", but in the end I didn't really "trust" my own work and sent it all to the Recycle Bin.

Shades of white and proper shadows are only visible on a good, properly calibrated, expensive LED, which is LESS than 5, not "less than 10 years old" like yours, but then again, I don't blame you, it's just strange why at least 5 people here see that, and you don't.

  36. I am not always right. But a pure comparison of CPUs is not sufficient. Read here, for example, about the difference between SD-RAM and DDR2-RAM: https://www.transcend-info.com/support/faq-296#:~:text=DDR2 SDRAM(Double Data Rate,(double of DDR SDRAM). Maybe now you'll realise what I'm talking about. And apart from that, an Intel Pentium 4 is not the same as an Intel Pentium 4. There were different series like Willamette, Northwood, and Prescott. And within these series different FSB clock rates. So, forget about these comparison sites! The only way to compare our computers is doing the same test regarding all hardware components. P.S.: Due to my motherboard layout, there are several bottlenecks. Firstly, the extremely slow SD-RAM memory, then the very low bus clock rate and finally the AGP 4x interface, although my graphics card actually is an AGP 8x one.

  41. FYI, my toggle buttons can easily be modified to switch other Boolean preferences. I explained it in the corresponding posts. TBH, there is nothing to be changed in the button's code. I think you rather mean changing the selected preferences which you want to control. This is to be done in the main user interface window of Pref Toggler via the button "Edit List". That's good to hear. Thanks for your feedback!
