Wow, it's beautiful!

This is true 100% of the time. There is a 50% chance that today's weather will be exactly like yesterday's weather.

Not necessarily. There are some weather sites that have radar and maps that require WebGL, which I disable by default in my releases. So yes, weather questions are allowed as some users may not know how to enable WebGL.

I hope it passes for you again.

Thank you, I'm doing well! But little problems with the back down, recently... this will probably pass, passed once but came back... But please let me know how you are doing, physically and mentally...

It's not going anywhere, the upstream have moved on.

WOW! those are really awesome!

Search for "AI Art Generator" ... unbelievable!

Ok! So if users can't get the current weather forecast in 360 Chrome and don't know how to get these sites to work in this browser, do not hesitate to ask our weatherman @NotHereToPlayGames. He will get the necessary information for you.

Do NOT go, rest calmly here.

Robots with human consciousness will ‘eclipse humanity’ and become geniuses, expert warns M.A. Loreto Published: 16:51 ET, Jan 11 2023 Here: https://www.the-sun.com/tech/7111348/robots-consciousness-eclipse-humanity-geniuses/

Doesn't that make you afraid of drowning instead of afraid of water? When a waitress walks around with a pitcher of ice water to refill your glass, do you hide under the table and tremble in fear? waka waka waka Kind of like not being agraid of heights but being afraid of falling and hitting the pavement. If I had half a million lying around, sure, I'd go for it.

Still getting definition updates for Defender

Can happen. That day has not come for me either few more years I'd be surprised if the hardware is still going. If I were to get something new (to me) I'd be willing to stick with windows and try 11 but would need to make sure I wasn't giving away too much, although, don't know what that means to me and I, I don't know, not much to get or give away, I'm an 'open book'.

Hi all and merry X-mass, I got bored and with the help of @Dixel and some amount of inspiration I sometimes get from @win32, I butchered the latest Opera 96 (110) to make it run on our beloved Vista ! This chinese browser Opera is based on the newest Chrome 110, which is officially supported only on Win 10 +. Also, I forced it to use its native hardware Skia engine 110. (which is now blocked on win 7 by default). For those who still drive their Sd.Kfz.8, Opera 95 and Chrome 109 are the last for win 7, so as of now, win 7 and the extended kernel for Vista are not able to run the 110 Chrome version. Please don't ask me about running it on WIn 7, I don't know (or won't tell) anything. In theory, it's possible for win 7 to run it. But only if you edit the browser code. (which is forbidden). Only Vista related questions. Thanks. Opera EULA says we can't edit their code, so I shall share my hacks/findings with @win32 and maybe he will be able to implement this in his next kernel release, so all of you could run it without the editing hacks.

After enough time everything passes, sure. Thank You Mina! And you, how are you, are your studies progressing well?... And your new website xpforums.com, do you have any new friends?..

I'm watching this and will watch all tonight. How are you doing, @msfntor ; I hope well and staying strong.

Agreed. edit - but it's anybody's guess as to how much longer v86-based will render "modern" web sites.

good I can still go thru with my plan thanks @mina7601

AI-GENERATED ART Artist Jan Robert Leegte (b. 1973) has recently explored the overwhelming nature of AI-generated worlds with Performing a Landscape (2020), a live installation comprising a storm-soaked landscape generated in front of the eyes of the public. Screens and projections offer a fragmented experience of the virtual landscape, leaving the viewer terrorized and disorientated by apparently preternatural forces. The spectator’s perspective is that of one submerged underwater, “safe” from the ensuing cataclysm overhead... From: https://flash---art.com/2021/01/episode-iv-ai-generated-worlds/ Midjourney – Art-making AI on the Rise (Create Images from Text) If I saw this a few years ago, I wouldn’t believe my eyes. Art-making robot generating astounding concept art from your text prompt, in seconds. Something BIG is happening! I spent a few days playing with Midjourney beta: https://www.midjourney.com/ (have generated more than 1000 images and burned quite a few bucks!). Can’t wait to share the crazy results with you – oh and also a quick Midjourney tutorial. Warning: there are a few potentially disturbing images (AI can generated some really weird stuff).

From youtube-dl's Reddit Wiki: Don't know if there are other GUI's that support XP... In New Moon you can use the "Open With" extension (direct link) to download videos or audio straight from the browsers right click menu:

I just use 3D Youtube Downloader

We're getting way offtopic here, but I want to mention that I can't get that last version of MPV working properly on my XP , which is in a virtual machine. I only get sound, but no window with video... I use a symbolic link for that, so that I don't need to rename each time. Can be done on XP with Link Shell Extension. See at the bottom of that page for Legacy XP download. Needs a driver as well. Could you try this one?

Did you try the XP Display Setting of Standard for font-smoothing? That's pretty much the only fix I am seeing aside from resorting to case-by-case Stylus sheets.

I've picked up an HP Slim Desktop Celeron G5900 as a refurbed unit. It has 4gb and Windows-10 home 64 bit. I was wondering if there are any RAM limits for W-10 home (ie maybe it's limited to 4 gb?) otherwise I was thinking of throwing another 4 gb ram into it (I'm guessing it would help performance?). I'm somewhat new to win-10, but I see if I'm going to migrate some PC's from 7 to 10 I'm going to have to dig into this a bit. One of the things I'm not liking is when you go through the initial power-on phase of a system with pre-installed win-10 is that it wants you to have a microsoft account (instead of a local account) and there doesn't seem to be a way to bypass that. Beyond that, has anyone come up with a single "god-mode" or "power-user" package that will make all the mods that you'll eventually stumble on doing over time as you hammer and mold a stock/retail win-10 installtion into something more useful for a power user? Like taking ownership of the /etc folder so you can control the hosts file? Turning off all crap services, uninstalling all the stuff you won't use (or will refuse to use on principle) like office 360, onedrive, etc?

That's because it's not even really USB 3.0, it's just USB 2.0 with fast charging capabilities. Never ask yourself how much cheaper they could get.

That would be off-topic in any case, unfortunately.

I successfully ported freshly released Opera Version: 96.0.4660.0 System:Windows Vista 64-bit Chromium version:110.0.5464.2

I wonder if the windows 10 will spy after the end of their official support

The only sure way is to not use them at all. There are ways to fight telemetry (e.g. O&O shutup Windows 10 - a helpful program) but you can never be sure that your system isn't "leaking".

@mixit We can disregard the file 13570 differences that resulted in our resources.pak (ungoogled) files being different sizes. My local file had some cosmetic changes to the extensions page (personal preference) and to the settings/content page (to correct anomolies on laptops with 768px max vertical resolution) and all of these changes were within file 13570. Apologies for any confusion. edit: discussion concluded, removed images from profile attachments

for reference (I seek to REMOVE these from the context menu completely - these "features" are intentionally broken in my default ungoogled releases). edit: copied images to Dropbox host instead of using profile attachments

Link to new thread -- https://msfn.org/board/topic/184135-arcticfoxienotheretoplaygames-360chrome-v135-build-2022/ (have not provided download links at the time of this posting, will be doing so shortly). Please consider this my last post in this thread. I kindly request that our new thread be dedicated to v13.5 build 2022. References to anything outside of v13.5 build 2022 should be considered as "off-topic". (ie, members wanting a v11 thread, for example, should kindly start their own thread.) Citing any web page that "does not work" and also does not work in Official Chrome v86 should also be considered as "off-topic". Please do not view this as "micro-managing", but rather as a CLEAN NEW START - I invite any-and-all to join me in our new thread.

Instructions to restore "Translate to English" context menu feature. Note that this works for both the "ungoogled" and the "regular" versions. Obtain HxD Hex Editor from here - https://mh-nexus.de/en/downloads.php?product=HxD20 Copy 360Chrome's chrome.dll from the base "ungoogled" version to a temporary folder and open in HxD. Perform a REPLACE (Ctrl+R) and enter ttps://translate........... (there are 11 dots) in the "Search for:" field and enter ttps://translate.googleapis in the "Replace with:" field. Note the h in https is intentionally skipped so that the instructions do not get mangled by forum reply box or by web browser viewing. Make sure that "All" is selected for "Search direction" and that "Text encoding" is set to "(Editor encoding)". Also make sure that "Case sensitive" is not selected. Click the "Replace all" button. TWO occurrences should be replaced. Save chrome.dll and replace in 360Chrome's folder while 360Chrome is not running.

Instructions to convert "ungoogled" to "regular". Note that this is not required to restore the "Translate to English" context menu feature (next post). Obtain and extract chrome-pak-customizer. https://github.com/myfreeer/chrome-pak-customizer/releases/download/2.0/chrome-pak.7z Copy 360Chrome's resources.pak file to a temporary folder. The easiest way to use chrome-pak-customizer is to have two File Manager windows open and use drag-and-drop. Drag-and-drop the resources.pak file and drop it onto unpack.bat. This will create a folder named resources_unpacked. Inside the resources_unpacked folder, open 155.json using Notepad++ or similar (I do not suggest Window's regular Notepad because carriage-returns/new-line-characters will not drop to a new line). I personally prefer a version called 5.8.6 Minimalist but any Notepad++ or similar will do. Edit the two 9oo9le entries to google to restore Chrome Web Store functionality but note that this enables a persistent Google cookie that will never delete and is shared across all browser sessions. Save the edited 155.json. After editing and saving 155.json, locate the pak_index.ini file from inside the same resources_unpacked folder and drag-and-drop onto pack.bat. This will create a file inside resources_unpacked folder called pak_index_packed.pak. RENAME pak_index_packed.pak to resources.pak and REPLACE 360Chrome's resources.pak (while 360Chrome is not running).

Topic which is 129 pages long with many versions posted, and I'm delirious. Good night to you too.

I don't understand the relationship between the motherboard RAM architecture or RAM sub-system and the M.2 interface. The HP computer in question has (1) NVMe 2242 and (1) NVMe 2280. The smaller one is used by the installed wifi/BT card. I assume I can install an SSD in the larger one? I read somewhere that M.2 SATA is not supported.

If your desktop computer supports NVMe M.2 SSD, you don't need dual channel memory.

I'm pretty sure its a S01-pF1013w. The HP service app on it said that the 1 year HP warranty expired just a couple months ago. This thing looks brand new, not sure where these come from, maybe leased? For what it has, I think the $170 I paid for it ($125 USD) is a steal. Came with a new mouse and keyboard. 1 TB internal hard drive, 4 gb ram, 4 USB-3 ports in front (which for some reason HP doesn't refer to as USB 3 but as "SuperSpeed USB Type-A"). Yes, I see that it will be limited to 32 gb ram (2 x 16 gb) but I'm not planning to go beyond 8 gb. Just wanted to make sure Win-10 home wasn't limited to 4 gb. I see that 4 gb DDR-4 ram is somewhat hard to find (locally). Having 2 sticks of 4 gb would be faster than a single stick of 8 - yes? Dual Channel?

You didn't put the model for the system. DDG seems to indicate that it is S01-pF1013w, and if so then the maximum amount of RAM supported by the board is 32 GB (2x 16 GB) https://support.hp.com/id-en/document/c06696087 https://support.hp.com/id-en/document/c06678632

OK, after some searching I've found directly from M$ that the "physical" ram limits for Win-10 home is 128 gb vs 2 TB for Pro. I don't know how it's even possible to generally have more than what, 64 gb of installed ram in your "average" desktop computer. So basically there is no real distinction in terms of max installed ram when you're looking at Home vs Pro. This is a big difference compared to Win-7. M$ created more low-budget versions of Win-7. Win-7 "Starter" was limited to 2 gb and was only x86. Win-7 home basic (x64) was limited to 8 gb and Home premium (x64) was limited to 16 gb.

The point is that when you buy new or refurbished hardware, it's already going to have win-10 "installed" on it, and there won't be any media disk for you to use to "install it yourself". So the only thing you can do is to go through the motions when you take it out of the box and turn it on. It's going to ask for any info it can to identify a pre-existing microsoft account. Your only option is to give it a phone number that you've never given to M$ before. And I'll ask again, does win-10 home have any set ram limits? How exactly is win-10 home handicapped vs some other flavor of win-10?

Depending on the Windows 10 version there are a few ways to install without a Microsoft account, easiest is to disconnect from internet while installing, if you google for "install windows 10 without microsoft account" you will find many guides/howtos. jaclaz

Very similar to Win11 I've setup in a virtual machine (minus the rounded corners and Win11 specific icons). I haven't booted to 10 in a while, currently reliving Win8.1 era and going through my screenshots I apparently never made a screenshot of my actual Windows 10 setup.
