I think I agree 100%

Me too I used Windows since I was really young (around 55?..)* *it was just for fun

Don't freakin' spam this thread with non-existent crap and absolutely off-topic vapourware.

You're welcome.

Hey @XPerceniol, you forgot to react to these posts: 1, 2 & 3

I have no experience with anything apple ive used windows since I was really young (around 13)

I completely avoided this method and I was able to successfuly port the bleeding edge Opera 97 (Chrome 111) and I have no delays with the startup you wrote about earlier. Screenshots with proof below. Opera was released on 06.02.2023 (yesterday) . It is fully functional, apart from the settings page (I get the error on the screenshot when I try to open them). Apart from that isuue I have the ability to enter the flags section, about, history and bookmarks. Lets' work together to find the cause for the settings. I was able to discover the reason for that weird slowness you wrote about. In short, the chrome devs are mor0ns (surprise...not). They have implemented a new crappy API that doesn't work as expected. I found it . Am I a genius, I dunno ... Link : Microsoft confirms that API is crap. "Thank you for your feedback. We have identified this issue as a Windows issue." https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/prefetchvirtualmemory-does-not-seem-to-preload-fil/1345958

I agree, thank you so much for your awesome work @roytam1!

@Mathwiz wrote about the differences for New Moon and K-Meleon: As for which browser is the best, well, test each browser, and see which one is the best for you. It depends how you use them. Mypal's difference is that 28.xx.x and 29.xx.x branch have a user interface from old version of Firefox, while the 68.xx.x branch is based on Firefox 68.12.0esr. There are two versions of Mypal, the old 28.xx.x and 29.xx.x branch, and the new 68.xx.x branch (which can be found here). I personally use the 68.xx.x branch. Mypal, yes, it's based on Gecko. K-Meleon and New Moon, no, they're both based on Goanna engine. (Correct me if I am wrong for Pale/New Moon, as I personally don't use it) Mypal is available in English (United States), but you can install your own language in it: For the old 28.xx.x and 29.xx.x branch, you can get them from here, For 68.xx.x branch, you can get your language from here, and instructions on how to apply your downloaded language (in xpi file format) to 68.xx.x is here (note: the site is Japanese, but, use a translator to translate the website). K-Meleon is available in the following languages: English (United States), German, Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, Chinese (China). New Moon is available in English (United States), but you can install your own language, read this post to know how. New Moon and K-Meleon are updated every week by roytam1. Mypal, well, it's on a slower pace by Feodor2. Welcome to MSFN, by the way.

Thanks. Fixed.

This GIF reminds me of something.. Oppan Gangam Style! Very nostalgic! Aside from that, it's good you have today as your holiday!

don't if you take the time to mod and use such an old OS you might as well allocate some time to manually install the drivers this could be an explanation, the cpu just doesn't get the required voltage and craps itself (maybe check the cpu cooler? to see if it's mounted correctly and check if there is thermal paste) it's worth running a stress test if you can - OCCT is a good tool for that and can run on windows vista with ex kernel (haven't tested on a vanilla install so it might work on that too)

Sometimes, very rarely, I delete a post that I reconsider its usefulness. it is not a very serious matter, @Tripredacus?

I suspect board software is limiting overusage of react buttons. We have a national holiday today, so no work!

HID Approve, used by some banks for mandatory 2-factor authentication for logging into online services and confirming payments with a card.

It'll be nice to see that red X disappear at long last!

Phew, indeed! That's really great to know things got stable for you.

I don't see many posting of the universe from you anymore?!

That's too much updates, but thank you man, for your hard work.

It's a wide spectrum. I guess I just know few bits there and there. I used to write patches for some old games, those that nobody bothered with. So got tiny bit of taste of x86 assembly and C. It was nice, to work by myself at my own pace. Got asked few times how you do these things and I've honestly no idea how to explain them, it's not something for a forum post. A friend back then suggested I could ask for donations. I think I only said I dunno or something, later, my thoughts were money just ruins everything. Had to get a "real" job at some point, after which I eventually abandoned all my work, which could still use some polishing touches. No energy/will for these things anymore. Financially stable, for now...other than that just flowing through existence, putting one foot in front of another, day by day... Ugh, several months ago I submitted Slovenian translation for Stylem extension (for UXP browsers), realized few days afterwards that I should really change the wording of one string as the most direct translation just comes out wrong and dumb in Slovenian, still haven't got to it... Having it in the taskbar is neat IMO, but I'm more bothered by the fact something's broken in my installation. I bumped up my Windows 10 version for few builds recently for some bugfixes of interest, funny I was doing it in the late evening and I passed out shortly after inputting DISM command to install the update package. Must have taken a while and when I woke up in the morning - "The operation completed successfully." - phew! Booting took significantly longer than usual and so did logging in, but it seems to have stabilized after few days. Thanks, will read. It's difficult with all the toxicity out there.

Good night ... we always seem to miss each other ... hope you are well I'm doing pretty good today.

see you tomorrow @msfntor!

This solved the problem, thank you.

How have I never seen this terrifying bungie disaster?? NTB Staff ··Feb 5, 2023 · NottheBee.com I've always wanted to do this, but I think I just changed my mind… Before you freak out too much, the woman in the video did survive. This happened in 2012 in Africa, and like a lot of things on the internet, resurfaced to terrify the heck out of us. Erin Langworthy slowed enough before the cord broke to allow her to survive the plunge into the Zambezi river at Victoria Falls in Zambia. She spent 40 minutes in the water, but in the first few she managed to stay conscious enough to swim out of the rapids. The sound of bubbles was so loud. I felt as if I had been slapped all over. My hands had stopped me hitting the water headfirst and blacking out. My lungs were on fire and I was struggling to breathe. I later found out I'd fallen for four seconds after the rope snapped: a distance of up to 40m. If I had been over land, I'd have been dead. Luckily, it had rained the day before, so the river was turbulent and full. The more than 100 feet of bungie cord still attached to her kept dragging her downriver until she managed to wedge her arm in some rocks. At one point, the cord snagged below me and I was trapped below the surface. As I was running out of air and my vision started to fade, I managed to dive back down, grab the rope and pull it free. Eventually I managed to wedge my arm between two slimy rocks near the side of the river. All I thought about was clinging on. By the time she was rescued and taken to a hospital, more than 6 hours had passed. Other than bruising and a collapse lung, she had no other major injuries. Around 50,000 people jump from that spot every year, so it was pure chance that the rope snapped on me – just wear and tear. They've now introduced measures to ensure it doesn't happen again. Yeah, I think I might still skip the jump and enjoy the view with my feet planted on solid ground! HERE: https://notthebee.com/article/how-have-i-never-seen-this-terrifying-bungie-jump

I guess it's UEFI only, there is no ReFS read support in the BIOS version of bootmgr.

I have them. See below and bookmark this post, so that you can always see them when logged in. [Edit] The link to yt-dlp doesn't change any more. It is hosted on GitHub for quite some time now.

No (the site employs dynamic module import, "import()", very unlikely to be implemented in UXP platform any time soon ) ... ... Of course it does! https://caniuse.com/es6-module-dynamic-import

Hi I can't see the peertube instances on the Roytam1 browsers is there a solution for this problem? it works on Chrome https://instances.joinpeertube.org

Yeah, then the amount of JS exploded and we are where we are. That Nextcloud JS is quite banal, I asked on PM forum, basically: class p { bus; constructor(e) { "function" == typeof e.getVersion && l()(e.getVersion()) ? c()(e.getVersion()) !== c()(this.getVersion()) && d.warn("Proxying an event bus of version " + e.getVersion() + " with " + this.getVersion()) : d.warn("Proxying an event bus with an unknown or invalid version"), (this.bus = e); } getVersion() { return "3.0.2"; } subscribe(e, t) { this.bus.subscribe(e, t); } unsubscribe(e, t) { this.bus.unsubscribe(e, t); } emit(e, t) { this.bus.emit(e, t); } } Remove bus outside of constructor because it's already defined in the constructor: class p { constructor(e) { "function" == typeof e.getVersion && l()(e.getVersion()) ? c()(e.getVersion()) !== c()(this.getVersion()) && d.warn("Proxying an event bus of version " + e.getVersion() + " with " + this.getVersion()) : d.warn("Proxying an event bus with an unknown or invalid version"), (this.bus = e); } getVersion() { return "3.0.2"; } subscribe(e, t) { this.bus.subscribe(e, t); } unsubscribe(e, t) { this.bus.unsubscribe(e, t); } emit(e, t) { this.bus.emit(e, t); } } So for this one: class m { handlers = new Map(); getVersion() { return "3.0.2"; } subscribe(e, t) { this.handlers.set(e, (this.handlers.get(e) || []).concat(t)); } unsubscribe(e, t) { this.handlers.set( e, (this.handlers.get(e) || []).filter((e) => e != t) ); } emit(e, t) { (this.handlers.get(e) || []).forEach((e) => { try { e(t); } catch (e) { d.error("could not invoke event listener", e); } }); } } I think you have to do it like so, put handlers definition in a constructor: class m { constructor() { this.handlers = new Map(); } getVersion() { return "3.0.2"; } subscribe(s, e) { this.handlers.set(s, (this.handlers.get(s) || []).concat(e)); } unsubscribe(s, e) { this.handlers.set( s, (this.handlers.get(s) || []).filter((s) => s != e) ); } emit(s, e) { (this.handlers.get(s) || []).forEach((s) => { try { s(e); } catch (s) { d.error("could not invoke event listener", s); } }); } } But sure, Pale Moon is bad since it doesn't follow standards. At least that's what they think. Obviously, in this case, developer really doesn't have it any easier because mainstream Chromium/Firefox allows declaration/definition outside of constructor.

Thanks a lot!

Read the fuking rules!

Another shameless self-promotion. If you're going to do this "all the time", why not make a download available? Google has NO INTEREST in reverse-engineering "your work".

Agreed ... everything is bubble gum pop I have the radio playing behind me tonight and everything sounds the same crap.

The latest ones should be working with extended kernel. In fact, I got the Visual C++ 2022 compiler/linker working on Vista with an older IDE: Yes, the compiled applications link against the supplied VC++ runtime and the signatures of this runtime like the padding with int 3/CC are evident if you look at the resulting code in a hex editor. I warn people trying to compile for x86 (and especially if TEB/PEB is involved) that there are some optimization issues. None of the optimization switches work to fix that problem.

If it doesn't boot, then you might have to consider doing that.

Yes. But don't rebuild the PE header. That doesn't work out as well. The checksum needs to be corrected every time the file is modified.

You can do it in CFF Explorer. Go to rebuilder, only check "Update Checksum", "Rebuild" then save.

IDA Pro does not like to assemble things very well, so you will have to go into the hex view to modify the import calls. In x86, the import calls directly reference the memory address of the import table entry as opposed to an offset. So the hex codes for the import call instruction will be (in little-endian notation): FF 15 B8 C0 F3 77 Local function calls remain offset based, so you can just go to edit -> patch program -> assemble and type in "call 77f01762h".

You put the memory address of the function in the wrong place (00000040 is near the beginning of the file; not the end where .xdata is located). In IDA Pro you will notice two numbers on the status bar: The one on the left, 0005B840 is the offset memory address and the one that Export Table Tester uses, as well as hex editors. So that is where you want to put the address of the function. And then there are a few other concerns, especially with regards to the export table: if you do not move it to an empty space in the file, such as farther down as .xdata, with lots of expansion room, you may end up running into other code or data.

I did manage to install it. The missing dependencies come up when trying to run the installed application.

More new features coming to win10 1903: But what I can't get over is the order in which the OSes evolve at the end. The lack of quality control has spread to M$ marketing!

Was the message something like "Windows Product Activation can't check the activation status of winlogon.exe" after attempting to logon? I've gotten that after messing around with the OS identifier of NT 5.2 x86 VLK (Server to Professional). Perhaps applying fcwin2k to winlogon.exe would have caused this. I don't think Yandex could affect WPA in any way. if so, you can still access Windows in safe mode, where you can delete all the associations made by fcwin2k. If not, a backup of the registry that dates back to before using fcwin2k should fix it. P.S. this method should also work on Windows Server 2003 (x86 and x64). This program must be one of many that block NT 5.2 (or Server 2003 specifically).

After installing Windows 98, take the time to do a full install of Office 97 Professional: 46 additional floppy disks! I still have about 25 3.5" floppy disks, about 5 of which are unreadable. Then there was the one where the shutter was a little loose and got stuck in my Presario...

Windows 10 is also very un-customizable compared to XP, which basically blasted the door open on UI skinning. You had many options available if Luna or Windows Classic didn't suit your tastes (even a few direct from MS). Even if you manage to restore some sanity to the look of 10, an update comes along and wrecks your hard work, as well as altering many of your settings, crushing your anti-telemetry safeguards and rearranging the UI like the chairs on the deck of the Titanic.
