  1. So, it looks like XP users will finally have another browser supporting JavaScript's new ?? operator. Now if only we could get developers to give it a plain-English (or plain-any-language, for that matter) name. Just to clarify, I was being curmudgeonly about "nullish," which isn't a, you know, word, at least not in the English language. It only exists in the context of Javascript programming. Don't believe me? Do a Google search! According to MDN, So in defining their non-word, they used another non-word: "falsy!" I'm sorryish, but this is just stupidy. Edit: to be fair, the terms "truthy" and "falsy" (the latter not to be confused with the actual word falsie) have been around for at least a decade. They seem to be used not only with JavaScript, but also other dynamically-typed languages like Python and, AIUI, Ruby. These languages have the Boolean values true and false but also values (such as numeric values) that evaluate to true or false when used in a Boolean context. (And "truthy" may have been a back-formation paying homage to Stephen Colbert, who coined the neologism "truthiness.") "Nullish," however, still just sounds silly....

  2. not possible without rewriting upstream changes in C89 syntax, thus not possible to be included in NSS-Legacy. my old answer still applies:

  3. roytam1, can you still update RetroZilla Browser for Windows 9x based on Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20 and add support for the following cipher suites?: TLS 1.2: ECDHE_ECDSA_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 TLS 1.3: AES_128_GCM_SHA256 TLS 1.3: AES_256_GCM_SHA384 TLS 1.3: CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256 Then RetroZilla Browser would be the immortal browser for Windows 9x and Pentium 1.

  4. Hopefullingly extremelyish!!! BTW as not being a native English speaker and also not being a programmer (not worth mentioning my experiences with BASIC, Turbo Pascal and Delphi over 20 years ago or very little C, PHP and JS more recently - and HTML [where I'm relatively good at] is a markup language but not a programming language) I always asked myself what's this "nullish" stuff. kind regards soggi

  6. To solve this you have to open firefox.exe in CFFexplorer, go to "optional header" and change value of MinorSubsystemVersion from 0001 to 0000.

  8. It seems to be that Feodor2 only provides MPL2 on the repo and nothing in addition. MPL2 FAQ doesn't seem to say anything about redist of old binaries in particular. So as long as the the person who is going/wants to share the old version has not modified the files they can link to it here. If they have modified the files, then they must meet requirements of MPL2 to link to it. If the original author requests content removal and proves that MPL2 has been violated then we will of course remove the link afterwards. https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/blob/main/LICENSE https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/FAQ/

  10. Did you read the "Alert" message? RZ can't connect to pagead.googlesyndication.com, this is just advertising BS - just block it with NoScript/AdBlock or something like this. The *.googlesyndication.com domain should be blocked in general as it doesn't serve any valuable content. BTW: Anyone knows a good Adobe Flash Player solution for NM27/28 these days? I need it to visit (old) snapshots of Flash based websites on web.archive.org. kind regards soggi

  11. Due to the lack of support for the ECDHE_ECDSA_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 cipher suite in RetroZilla Browser, the following errors pop up when opening the site https://www.old-games.ru. Can anything be done without uninstalling Windows 98 and installing Windows XP?

  12. @steregushchyy You can use the Optional Patch Integrator Script included with Integral Edition on a standard Ukrainian/Russian XP ISO to integrate the drivers you need. note: Remember to replace the out of date patched acpi.sys in \Integrator Files\Patches\ACPI drivers with a newer one built from source code.

  14. If I had one wish and it was possible, I would desire support of XUL based extensions in Mypal 68. Then we could install add-ons from both worlds. Truth be told, I miss a lot of my old beloved extensions and in many cases there is no reasonable substitute among web extensions. In the past I created some custom buttons using Javascript, but no chance to get them work in more recent Firefox versions or in Mypal 68. But as I already said it's just a wish which will probably never come true. Cheers, AstroSkipper

  15. Adding to the list of software compatible only with the Extended Kernel (tested with Feb 22 release): SketchUp 2017 (last free version) Steps needed to install: 1) Install VC redist 2015 2) Extract MSI from the SketchUp installer (e.g. with 7-zip) 3) Drop LaunchCondition table using Orca or InstEd (right-click > Drop Table) https://msfn.org/board/topic/174873-how-to-get-the-latest-version-of-sketchup-working-in-windows-vista/ 4) Set Schema to 405 in the Summary Info stream ('View' menu in Orca or 'Tables' menu in InstEd) https://msfn.org/board/topic/183519-is-it-possible-to-modify-a-msi-package-to-require-msi-45/?do=findComment&comment=1218910 5) Install using modified MSI SketchUp 2022 (latest) Seems to install fine using the official installer. Make sure Windows version is set to 6.0 if using OSVER.ini or else SketchUp crashes on launch. I haven't tested the versions in between but presumably they also run. https://i.ibb.co/CtGZJjL/sketchup.png MuseScore 3.6.2 (latest)--variable success Seems to be working fine on my Vista installed on actual hardware but I can't get it to start in my VM. https://i.ibb.co/wsD7Jyw/musescore.png LibreOffice 7.3.3 (latest) Runs well apart from some minor kerning/letter spacing issues. https://i.ibb.co/C1CyhR2/libreoffice.png Inkscape 1.2 (latest) Also runs very well with the Extended Kernel. https://i.ibb.co/whXfH6t/inkscape.png Absolutely amazing work by Win32! ... and regarding Vista-compatible software that break with the Extended Kernel installed: Older VirtualBox with the Extended Kernel It's pretty much common knowledge that more recent versions VirtualBox don't work with the Extended Kernel due to hardening checks implemented around 2014. There were some links to to a Russian site with newer custom builds with hardening disabled, but these seem to be too new for Vista (at least, I couldn't get them to work). However, in case anyone would really like to run some version of VirtualBox with the Extended Kernel installed, version 4.3.12 appears to be the last version without hardening. https://i.ibb.co/ZxCkCY8/virtualbox.png
