  5. Your system supports and uses the feature Hyper-Threading with which one physical microprocessor behaves like two logical, virtual cores. Maybe, the 360Chrome browser runs differently on such systems similar to real multi-core processors, resulting in lower RAM consumption. Just a theory! Maybe, there are other members here who can confirm or refute my theory. I would be very interested!

  10. HERE: 50 Christmas traditions: https://daringtolivefully.com/christmas-traditions It’s Christmas time! Here are 50 glorious Christmas traditions to get your Holidays off to a great start (for kids from 1 to 92). 1. Make a list of your ten favorite holiday songs, find a great version of these songs on YouTube, and look for the lyrics online. Play them over and over again and sing along. Here are my favorites: “O Holy Night” by Celtic Woman “Believe” – by Josh Groban “The Christmas Song”sung by Nat King Cole. “All I Want For Christmas is You” by Mariah Carey “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” by Andy Williams So This is Christmas by Celine Dion Do You Hear What I Hear? by Carrie Underwood Carol of the Bells by Pentatonix Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas by Frank Sinatra Let It Snow by Dean Martin As Buddy from the 2003 movie “Elf” explains, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. 2. Go to the tree farm to pick the perfect tree. 3. Pile into the car at night and drive around looking at all of the Holiday lights and decorations. 4. Since 1989, every resident on the 700 block of Baltimore’s 34th street has put up Christmas lights. This is known as “The Miracle on 34th Street.” Follow suit: get your neighbors together and start a tradition of being the most Christmassy street in your city. 5. Look for a Coca Cola Christmas truck. Then, watch these Coca Cola holiday commercials on YouTube: Snow Globes Coca Cola 2010 Christmas Coca Cola Christmas Song 6. Have some hot cocoa, Elf Judy style: “Not too hot. Extra chocolate. Shaken, not stirred.” (Elf Judy is one of Santa’s elves in the movie “The Santa Clause”. It took her 1200 years to perfect her hot cocoa recipe.) 7. Set up a Nativity Scene. Better yet, get creative: make a Lego Nativity Scene or make one of these. 8. Put a Santa Sack under the Christmas tree and have each of your kids place any toys that they no longer play with–but that are still in good condition–in the sack. On Christmas Eve, Santa Claus takes the old toys and replaces them with new ones. The old toys are then donated. 9. Start the tradition of having a special breakfast on Christmas Day. For example, have Eggnog French Toast or eggnog pancakes. 10. Help your kids write a letter to Santa (here are some templates you can use). 11. Write a letter from Santa addressed to each of your kids letting them know they’ve been added to the top of the “nice list”. You can also highlight any special accomplishments they’ve had that year in the letter, so that they know how proud Santa is of them. 12. Start a tradition of having Santa bring each of your kids three gifts, one for each of the wise men. Have the gifts be something to read, something to wear, and something they really want. 13. Make photocopies of your children’s letters to Santa each year and keep them. They can read them years from now and remember back to when what they wanted most in the world was an Elmo doll. 14. Watch “A Charlie Brown Christmas”. Charlie Brown complains to Lucy about the overwhelming materialism that he sees everywhere during the Christmas season, and how the holiday has become completely commercial. Lucy tells him that he can get into the holiday spirit by directing the school Christmas pageant. Charlie Brown accepts. The pageant turns out to be a frustrating struggle. Charlie Brown attempts to restore the proper spirit with a forlorn little fir Christmas tree, but he just seems to make thing worse. Luckily, Linus explains what the real meaning of Christmas is and the joy of the season is restored... ... ... 22. Watch your favorite Holiday movies. You can even host a Holiday-movie marathon. Here are some of my favorite Christmas movies: “It’s a Wonderful Life” “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” “A Christmas Story” “The Santa Clause” “Miracle on 34th Street” Read more on this very nice website, please!..

  13. I love how literally no one voted 2004 or 20H2. Personally I like LTSC 2019 (1809) as it is the last "smooth" version of Windows 10 while also having a semi-modern look (poor take I know)

  14. Oh, looked everywhere but there...it's enabled in default config (starting out with empty User Data). Edit: BTW, --use-gl=desktop is presumably deprecated in recent Chrome versions since there's an error about not allowed implementation on chrome://gpu (tried on work laptop with latest Chrome) and I get the same error in XP in this 360Chrome build about that missing WGL function, like on Vista. There goes the idea of having functional HW accel through OpenGL.

  16. KB4019276 was later superseded (replaced) by KB4056564, although I had no issues with the earlier update. IE9 would still be a very poor browser, but this could be helpful for any software that uses IE’s engine or relies on the OS for decryption of TLS 1.2.

  17. You want updates that are “needed” or “essential” for what purpose? If you just want to install the extended kernel, then TSNH is an authority (see his Guide - Vista extended kernel installation). However, if you are a security fanatic who believes that Windows must be “fully patched,” then I’m afraid it’s rather late to call yourself a “legacyfan.” I never discuss ESU updates released after January 2020 that were intended for enterprise customers who paid for an ESU license, but I can tell you that they are ending in January 2023. You won’t find those in greenhillmaniac’s repository, which I believe was last updated in December 2019. If I understand correctly, there will soon be no current patches for anything older than Windows 10; and Microsoft never stated that patches released in previous decades are sufficient to keep Windows secure. It is perhaps worth mentioning that Microsoft sounded an especially loud alarm about the BlueKeep vulnerability (CVE-2019-0708). It might therefore be advisable to install the update that Microsoft expressly suggested at the link. I believe the monthly rollups were cumulative, so any rollup released after May 2019 should serve just as well. For those who would rather not bother, disabling the Terminal Services service was the suggested mitigation.

  24. Your "period-correct" is BETA STAGE. Or a "first gen" car where everybody knows you wait for the third-gen so that all the bugs are worked out. "First Gen" spends way too much time in "warranty repair" HASSLES. Most of the rest of us, our computers may not be as OLD as yours (most are "younger" by a mere few years!), but they came with XP installed on them, that "qualifies" them as 'period-correct'. Mine is actually a retired office computer and it did come with XP x64. Though I do agree, most users running XP are not running x64. Hades, even just a short MONTH ago, my brother who works for a mom-and-pop "PC Repair" shop, didn't even know an x64 version of XP existed! I make fun of him all the time for being the LEAST TECH-SAVVY of all of us brothers/sisters, yet HE is the one working in a "PC Repair" shop. His primary role seems to ALWAYS be to talk people into upgrading to the "latest-and-greatest" instead of actually REPAIRING their PC, but I digress. In statistics, and not to sound "mean" (waka waka waka) - your computer would be the outlier, not the mean. edit - adhering too strictly to self-imposed definitions of "period-correct" reminds me of a scene in "Shawshank Redemption" and being 'obtuse'

  25. greetings all, we found the related information that caused that problem even tho we have no inside information, the information i posted is incredible accurate so here is what microsoft did, it probaly is useful information to know https://github.com/microsoft/STL/pull/1194/commits/faa3434d7e748fcfdc253ad2788a0e4fddfea105 explain that __crtInitializeCriticalSectionEx(&_M_critical_section, 4000, 0); // to InitializeCriticalSectionEx(&_M_critical_section, 4000, 0); it also explains why the dependency walker for versions up to 16.7 show a try to search for that functions (meant is that there these functions where found on dependency walker but not in the import list)

  27. Off-topic: For adding single values, you can't use the sigma on your calculator. This function is meant to calculate a sum value in the sigma notation. For that, you need a start value, an index, an end value and a term which usually depends on the index. For example, the Gauss sum:

  28. Yeah, I already know that Sigma is the symbol for sum, but what I meant to say is, I don't use it on my calculator, I mainly do all normal calculations without it, lol.

  29. I gotta say, it stinks most Windows XP computers don't hold USB 3.0 support. All Microsoft and manufacturers need to do is add hardware support for XP on newer hardware and everyone will be happy. File transfers on my modded Windows 10 PC run extremely quickly...my Intel Core Duo 2 XP laptop takes about 3 hours for about the same size file transfer. My biggest pet peeve here is how overly bloated programs are nowadays too. Because the tools used to write them are so bloated now, the software that comes from it is also bloated. Like, we don't need to have 16gb of ram and an i9 to play MP3's, watch downloaded videos, use a word processor, or browse the web. Literally, a computer from 20 years ago can do all these tasks.

  34. Personally I feel like Windows 7 is somewhat usable in 2023, however I wouldn't use it for anything sensitive like banking due to the obvious security risks. As well as that, Chrome is dropping support for Windows 7, which is kind of a deal breaker for me as I have to use the G Suite for school and it doesn't run properly on Firefox.

  42. OSs like 2000 hang around because they tend to work right out of the box. Not only that they install on much older hardware. I had W2k loaded years ago on a Pentium 133 with only 145mbs ram. Today you could barely render the simplest websites with that if you could even find a workable browser. Just for fun I fired it up recently and managed to get Firefox 31esr to load some sites before finally throwing it away in the dumpster. Millions of people around the world still rely on older hardware; maybe not quite as bad but not necessarily modern by current standards either so we'll be seeing third party support for w2k and even 98se for years to come yet.

  43. You're right - people are growing all the more lazy and stupid, and business strives to cater to that. And thus the world goes quietly into the night. Popular films notwithstanding, history teaches us that periods of stupidity end. -Noel
