Right! Using browsers such as Mypal 68, New Moon or Serpent means the user is running old hardware with old operation systems. Such systems are slow and weak in general. On more recent hardware, I personally wouldn't think of using old OSes or legacy browsers. Thus, your comment is not very logical, rather absurd or provocative and certainly not helpful. And BTW, I drive a very old car and speed doesn't matter for me. One particularly positive aspect is that I produce very little electronic waste.

Here are some facts: my car is from 1989, my Windows XP computer is from 2000 but my tablet is an Android 9 one with most recent apps. I could use a much more modern desktop computer but I love my old one. I also could use a notebook with dualboot of Win 7 and Win 10. Websites which don't run properly on my Win XP machine I usually open on my Android tablet. I am an experienced Android user and can do nearly all things under Android if needed. BTW, many of my posts are written on my tablet. And I love throwing Google-infested websites at my tablet. This part can handle them perfectly.

You set the uBlock rules to filter out files with the WebP extension, but they still go right through it because the fake extension is jpeg, but it's not jpeg, it's WebP, now you understand?

More detailed explanations: Basically, every website can fool that "fix" into the wrong thinking by simply changing the extension of WebP to jpeg or something else (mp4, for example). Besides, plenty of websites use extension-less WebP, when WebP is there, but without extension or with any other extension to mask the real evil, that's what @D.Draker tries to explain to you.

So, it's not a fix at all, I'd say it's even more dangerous than without it. (feeling of fake safety) If I considered that to be a fix. I'd placed it on the first page of this topic, right after I created it.

I'm sorry to repeat myself again, it's not the picture I was talking about. Here's the one, in webp format, it says it's jpeg, when if fact it is NOT, I don't know how else to explain it to you, ask the website supervisor to check it then! It only pretends to be jpeg, it's NOT jpeg, it's WEBP, are you familiar with WinHex, open the file in it, you will see it's WEBP, (link to my screenshot) here the link to the picture with FAKE jpeg, click on it to save, you will get WEBP (not jpeg!) https://media.greenmatters.com/brand-img/A9FOjrk4U/2160x1130/super-natural-disney-plus-1663705823978.jpeg?position=top

In Mypal 68, the verification process lasted exactly 1 minute. I measured it from this registration form to this success message when clicking the button "Hier klicken": In New Moon 28, it took much longer, maybe five to six times as long. For me, much too long.

That said, I don't know if the served format depends on the browser/user agent used, I'm on a laptop with Chrome 109 (with the official webp fix) at the moment, if anyone wonders.

I don't know what's all this talk about doctors, the fix doesn't prevent webp from getting into your system, at least for me. You may check it yourself. Go here, don't worry, it's a legit site. https://www.greenmatters.com/news/super-natural-disney-plus Then right click on the picture with ‘Super/Natural’ Animals (Exclusive). The name is super-natural-disney-plus-1663705823978.webp. It saves the pic in WEBP format. Still don't believe? Look at the screenshot below.

My Windows XP desktop computer is not permanently switched on. But my tablet is. This means that many daily tasks can be done immediately. But I generally prefer to surf with my old machine. I love the legacy browsers such as New Moon 28 and Serpent 52. And complex articles are written there, of course. But all that bloated Google stuff is ideal food for my tablet.

I'll make sure to follow the advice. No, I don't. Why? I don't complain, I make scientifically proven observations, which is expected on a forum like this. Period.

You don't even have to download it, it's already in the page (but with another extension). D.Draker suggested you to download it to see it's WebP, not jpeg, like it announces itself! Please enough with the screaming in CAPSLOCK and the red arrows, we are here for a dialogue, please respect the others. It's inappropriate behaviour, it's against the rules.

No, there was a fix suggested by @Jakob99 "Navigate it to C:\Windows\System32\drivers. Inside here, find a file named IntelPEP.sys and delete this." https://msfn.org/board/topic/184348-solved-windows-81-on-swift-3-kaby-lake-failed-and-blue-screen/?do=findComment&comment=1238073 Perhaps he was trying to achieve something from there, looks like we have to wait for the precise description.

Hello @shelby! Here is a quotation from Avast: Source: https://www.avast.com/registration-free-antivirus#pc Cheers, AstroSkipper

I understand that, but you won't be able to change that service's configuration without becoming TrustedInstaller first. Some interesting reading: https://www.tiraniddo.dev/2017/08/the-art-of-becoming-trustedinstaller.html While you don't need to concern yourself with technicalities in that post, you will need System Informer or another utility that makes it easy to run any program in the context of TrustedInstaller (aka NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller). It's a special service account that has full permissions over various system objects that administrator accounts or more precisely the Administrators group don't. I simply suggested running System Informer itself as TrustedInstaller as that program allows changing services' configuration, but if you wanted, you could run also run Windows' services.msc as TrustedInstaller, then you should be able to change the configuration of those services with said utilities as well, at least assuming the program that disabled them didn't mess with the permissions. System Informer also allows you to view and change permissions for each service, if you open any service on Services tab and click Permissions. There, you should see in the case of both Security Center service Windows Security Service (at least that's how they're called in US English version of Windows) that Administrators group doesn't have either Modify Configuration or Stop permission. But TrustedInstaller does. And the pictures from System Informer showing default startup type for both services in question: At least that's how it should be in Win10 builds from the last 3 years or so...sometimes they change some services' configuration with newer builds. Including the most recent one? It's updated quite often so oddities can come and go.

Use a systray program called "Caffeine". Works for XP, Vista, Win7, and Win10, I've used it in all of them. Some programs/OSes might require non-default "Caffeine" settings that change the fake keypress being used.

That's precisely what I warned about, with that "fix" non-savvy people will get the wrong feeling of safety, and then infect themselves with WebP. So perhaps I agree with you, better to do nothing than relax yourself with such "solutions". I'm not sure about the chance/infection rate. Who are you, I don't remember. I recently fell off the second floor of a hooch we were clearing up in a far away country, so it could reflect on my memory. The floor simply didn't hold my weight, I'm tall.

Which ones were those? I may have miss'em. Look: webp is an issue, and there are a million monkeys working 'round the clock to get into the systems of persons of import (the CitizenLab tries to deal with that sort of stuff). Bottom line, though, unless a state-sponsored team directly targets you, it is carelessness and curiosity that kills the cat. Go on looking for sites with webp images, download or watch stuff from shaddy sites, use software that has not been vetted by people of real, practical (not youtube) knowledge, and you'll get scientific proof that they're out to get you. I know you need your fix, and that you need it now. In the meanwhile... well, you get the picture.

My daily drivers are a 2003 and a 1991 - so yep, I drive a very old car also, so RESPECT, my dear friend! I'm afraid I don't quite see the older-browser on older-hardware quite the same. I mean, one post tells other folks to consult to a modern browser on a tablet. Another post cites Mypal 68, New Moon, and Serpent being for the sake of old hardware on old operating systems. Did you really cite a full MINUTE on one browser and five to six times that on another browser? *SIX MINUTES* to wait for a "captcha" to complete? Okay, that's *WHY* you have the tablet, lol. The thing is, though, web browsers USED TO BE "optimized" relative to the OS. Nowadays, that is NOT what these browser forks "do". Consider, for a moment, a bucket of 2,000 javascript functions. If 100 of those functions are seldom used "in the wild" but the mere compatability being implemented results in a captcha taking SIX MINUTES versus THIRTY SECONDS, then should that browser "support" those 100 javascript functions? I say a resounding NO. But again, that's not how these forks are designed, they're designed to get us as close as possible to that FULL bucket of 2,000 javascript functions NO MATTER WHAT THE COST IS TO "PERFORMANCE". I mean, most of us (myself included!) try to have it both ways, we expect to run our old hardware but think it should do everything that new hardware can do. But again, RESPECT, my fellow old car driver.

No, I'm talking about the first picture, the one that has ‘Super/Natural’ text in it, this screenshot shows the second one, you need to right click on it, choose save, it will save as WEBP.

You forgot to include the instructions or any precise explanations. Besides, not everyone with older monitors will see that function. Most importantly, you forgot to tell - it's mostly HDMI.

Big recommendation for Teamspeak 2, if it's for voice chat between Windows PCs of all ages. Despite being super old, Teamspeak 2 works even on Windows 10, as well as good old Windows 98. The system requirements are ridiculously low. The codecs are ridiculously outdated (some of them convert your voice to mysterious art!), but they're efficent. Still many public servers are up and running and self-hosting is possible as well. What a nice software. Teamspeak 2 Download: http://teamspeak2.bplaced.net/neue_seite_3.htm

Isn't TRIM is now handled by these devices themselves? I have a combo HDD/SSD and HDD monitoring software says TRIM is handled by the device.

In this a case, maybe try to make it shorter? If you patched the header with new method, can also test it here. https://swifttls.org/ My result below.
