Did you notice? Just write "PH" and some members who never wrote in this thread leave a message... BTW Porn is still on of the the things which takes most internet traffic, no matter how prudish societies are... BTW I would really appreciate it, if the understanding of "pH" would increase - chemistry is a great and important subject. I had some semesters while studying chemical engineering back then. I wouldn't say "frowned upon"...maybe uncommon is more precise!? Sometimes I also abbreviate in German, especially when I'm writing and not talking - but yes, it's more common in English. Hell start's freezing? A cooperation would be great...but I don't believe until hell is frozen up! kind regards soggi

At school, we (my generation) learnt to avoid any abbreviation. When we did it anyway, it eventually led to bad grades. It was even so extreme that not even the German abbreviation u.s.w. or etc. was allowed. So much for "frowned upon" versus "uncommon"! Just a little tale from my life! Furthermore, this is probably also a generational problem. The younger people, especially the youth, are linguistically contaminated by Anglicisms and many of them no longer really know the written German language, which inevitably leads to the increased use of abbreviations.

On the other hand, it seems to me that win 7 would be more capable to run modern software if development/support was not cut, and that XP had more limitations in this regard.

I know, i just thought it was funny. No offence taken or intended. There are too few hours in a day, too often i can't find enough time for all the things i want to do... But i try to catch up once in a while.

I thought you guys were joking and playing dumb Well, since i was catching up and had just read the last few pages, the related issue was fresh in my mind. And i don't shy away from clicking links to the PM forums...

... The UXP forks (NM28/St52) offered here by roytam1 (infinite thanks BTW ) are based 99.5% on the same application platform (UXP) that official Pale Moon (and Basilisk) is based on ... Like "our" forum, "theirs" is also inhabited by numerous very knowledgeable members; because the platform is more-or-less common, if issue "A" affects PM, there's a strong likelihood same issue "A" affects NM28 and/or St52... If solution to issue "A" is offered inside the PM forums, then good chances are the same solution will work for NM28/St52, too... Case in point, the recent "discourse" breakage... Fortunately, one can visit the official PM forums and read most content there without a mandatory registration - the site is safe, renders fine in "our" browsers and, frankly, is also a chest full of invaluable knowledge on "legacy" browsers, "legacy" extensions, etc. When I, @UCyborg or some other person here includes a link to the PM forum, should be assumed by the frequenters here that it links to content that is also relevant to "our" browsers , or, at the most extreme, it links to general discussions with tangence/interest to "us", too ... IOW, you don't have to use Pale Moon browser to follow a suggested link to their forum - FWIW, I don't use PM myself, for the simple reason it's incompatible with my OS, however that fact doesn't stop me from visiting their forum for "consultation" on various issues/problems (mind you, the forum is less "hostile" now to read, with "you-know-who" banned from posting ) ... I understand my opinion(s) might not resonate well with everybody here, "c'est la vie" , and, certainly, I don't want to sound unpleasant to some of you, but...

Hm: Material comfort Wellbeing Engagement in meaningful activities/work, Loving relationships (with partners, family, and friends) Belonging to a community. I'm only confident about putting the checkmark near the first one, not sure what to say about the second (kinda kinda, seems a bit vague), the rest are definitely lacking.

I see it now. Well, it's because you wrote your reply inside the quote. To avoid this, write outside of the quote, like this:

in the comments they say entreprise use the same telemetry. Also they say about using a strict firewall like SimpleWall, using a DNS sinkhole like PiHole and an app like O&O ShutUp 10++

see this and the comments

That I can't believe that this music video was released over 10 years ago. PSY - GANGNAM STYLE(강남스타일) M/V That music video broke then 32-bit view counter on YouTube.

Odd. Without M.A.T why is there still distance between msfn roytams and moon child? Also, some days ago he come into ##palemoon on the libra channel and asked if anyone wanted to explore adding vistaxp back. I think he stayed for 3 days with no response and leave.

Agreed! I often feel that MSFN could do itself wonders towards the future if it followed this same approach. Less true "today" than six months ago, but still "true".

Great news... I wouldn't call it a 'flawed' implementation -- but rather a limited implementation. In laymen's terms, if your hardware is too new, it won't work. But in other words, when it works, it works completely fine. I always install Windows 7 in UEFI mode (Windows 7 has a UEFI mode without secure boot), and now Secure Boot will be a great benefit, not to mention two more years of updates. Time to back up my laptop and do a new install. If/when Chrome is successfully backported to Windows 7, I no longer see the urgency to move to 8.1.

If the reply is pointed at me, then please quote me. Also, don't be sorry, you did nothing wrong.

Man, I feel very negative right now. Impossible for me to get positivity during these hard times. As I said before, nothing entertains me. Can't even go outside because of the stupid bad weather.

'Hand of God' seen by NASA Chandra space telescope image PSR B1509-58, a pulsar in Circinus... Pulsar B1509 captures the X-Ray nebula...Taken by NASA's Chandra X-ray observatory from it's orbiting 360 miles above the Earth.

At the center of this image made by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is a very young and powerful pulsar, known as PSR B1509-58, or B1509 for short. The pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star which is spewing energy out into the space around it to create complex and intriguing structures, including one that resembles a large cosmic hand. In this image, the lowest energy X-rays that Chandra detects are colored red, the medium range is green, and the most energetic ones are blue. Astronomers think that B1509 is about 1700 years old as measured in Earth's time-frame (referring to when events are observable at Earth) and is located about 17,000 light years away.

Unfortunately, I have to vehemently disagree, especially from a linguistic point of view. Latin and Greek are languages on which German is inherently based, for almost 2000 years. Anglicisms in German, especially coming from America, are rather artificial, less than 100 years. This cannot be compared in the way you have done. However, further explanations would go beyond the scope here and are off-topic. And by the way, I have studied Latin.

Oh yes, same here... Maaahhh...school...we aren't at school here. I think at school it's the same in UK or USA. This wasn't extreme, it was (and is) correct to not use abbreviations in continuous text which will be handed to a teacher. The debates about Anglicisms are pointless - where are the debates about Latinisms, Grecisms, Gallizisms or Hispanisms? Language of living people is a living, developing thing, else you ride a dead horse with dead people (Latin is the most famous example). The most people who are agitating against *isms (especially Anglicisms) are using *isms day by day themselves and name words/phrases *isms which aren't. Nevertheless it's important - I think - to cherish/cultivate a language (and dialect) - there are wonderful German (dialect) words and phrases which are seldomly used, for example. No kidding, there were at least two accs just reacting to "PH". kind regards soggi

It probably would've happened by now.

The current version, Pegasus Mail 4.80, is XP-compatible. I could successfully install it on my real Windows XP computer, and it runs as expected. At next, I will try the beta version 4.81.

For some reason, it's inside the quote. Click the expand button to see it.

You're right! The PM forum is a great source for research. I look up there very often to find solutions for new or old problems when they befall me.

^Same.

Well, I don't click these links because I personally don't use Pale Moon.

I spoke too soon. YT is definitely acting up, did google change things again because this is recent past week?

Can't believe that was over 10 years ago.

Maybe my last post (half-joke, half-serious) was too far away from the previous one. It was in plain sight if you put them together. Funny how discussion on that particular website has lead to correction of a rather silly (but in the context of that website functionality on UXP still seemingly more or less unrelated) defect (regression) in the UXP platform. Edit: Hey, I did post about the mentioned "Software disenchantment" post back in October 2019! https://msfn.org/board/topic/180302-software-disenchantment/

Because it's coupled in with the same context of YouTube.

That is terrible today is not over so I hope today finds you in better shape to handle the stress and triggers ... we are in trigger hell right now and have to use the mental firewall.

actually there are a lot more win 7 users 3 years after EOL than there were XP users back then. according to statcounter.com, win 7 has a market share of 9.55% as of jan 2023 while XP was only at 5.26% in april 2017. I guess as long as Firefox still gets updates for win 7, it is simply not necessary to make an effort in getting newer builds of chromium to run on win 7.

the best option would be to wait and see what happens (it could happen eventually) 😉

I had tuna for dinner (poor mister Tuna and mister Blobfish) and I ate cherry dump cake and I'm full. Maybe find a game as I'm watching mindless TV Thank you for reminding me, Mina, I did forget yesterday. Better late than never.

DCBrowser link to Chrome Web Store from Extensions/each extension/Details/View in Chrome Web Store - leads to the Chinese version of the Chrome Web Store... if this has already been mentioned (and answered) here, please accept my apologies...

That's a different error! Me and @XPerceniol are having an error of "cannot add any more reactions today".

WinNTSetup 5.3 Beta 7 - workaround windows 7 Dism /add-driver bug 30 (AMD, NVIDIA drivers with LZSS compression) - workaround EFI NTFS driver bug - fixed capture problem with OneDrive On-Demand files - added combobox script selection to diskpart window - added -diskpart command line switch to bring up diskpart window - added WIM_MSG_ERROR and WIMLIB_PROGRESS_MSG_HANDLE_ERROR Messagebox choice

I feel we have 2 main options. Either have a large protest directed at Google and Mozilla, or focus on improving the extended kernels so there is "day one" support for new versions when official support drops.

Do you mean Windows 8 or Windows 8.1?

UserBenchmark component UBMSkillBench.exe now calls CreateFile2, but it doesn't seem to affect the ability to perform the benchmarking process, for now anyway. But just in case, I wrote this out: HANDLE CreateFile2(LPCWSTR lpFileName, DWORD dwDesiredAccess, DWORD dwShareMode, DWORD dwCreationDisposition, LPCREATEFILE2_EXTENDED_PARAMETERS pCreateExParams) /* win32 - March 17 2022 Tonight, I noticed UserBenchmark calling this Windows 8 function. I'm not sure what the point is of this function; the documentation page says a lot about UWP usage, and a few extra flags which CreateFileW may be also be able to use on later OSes. */ { if(!pCreateExParams) return CreateFileW(lpFileName, dwDesiredAccess, dwShareMode, NULL, dwCreationDisposition, 0, NULL); return CreateFileW(lpFileName, dwDesiredAccess, dwShareMode, pCreateExParams->lpSecurityAttributes, dwCreationDisposition, pCreateExParams->dwFileAttributes | pCreateExParams->dwFileFlags | pCreateExParams->dwSecurityQosFlags, hTemplateFile); }

Those are stubs that I deprecated a long time ago. I now grab my code from newer versions of Windows using IDA pro or write my own (you can do it in C, then disassemble if you don't know asm well). SetThreadErrorMode calls RtlSetThreadErrorMode in ntdll. Perhaps you can call RtlSetThreadErrorMode locally by putting it in kernel32. K32GetModuleFileNameExA is the same as GetModuleFileNameExA in psapi.dll. In fact every function that starts with "K32" was originally in there. But I don't believe kernel32 can call psapi because psapi relies on kernel32.

The version spoofing takes effect when you save the file, so not at all.

To get the best extended kernel experience, install from vistakernsetup_02262021.7z. It's a 7-zip archive that contains the extended kernel installer and the newest files. Widevine DRM components are not working for unspecified reasons. They worked back in July, though I think that it may have something to do with the extensions not recognizing locales. ntoskrnl changes the NT version in the registry back at every boot. I patched it once, but it did nothing to prevent version blocking, so I left it alone.

This "Universal Theme Patcher" is what I used: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/447531495062503456/556252683569332246/UniversalThemePatcher_20090409.zip

The installer has been added and files have been updated in the same Mega folder as usual. kernel32 is updated both on x64 and x86, as is new x86 wrappers, ntext and ntk32.dll. I thought I had done it last night, but it seems that I somehow distracted myself enough from actually uploading it.
