You lost me, so you do or don't use Supermium?

But you check mine. Oh, that "famous" fixation on higher education ... what about my education?

Why Vista? I simply like Vista, Why Business? It came preinstalled with my PC. Yes, in France we trouble ourselves with legit Windows versions, probably you didn't know that fact, Officially, I couldn't - my CPU is in Windows 11 blocklist for being 15 years old. But then again, if I ever upgrade, I'll use the official Ungoogled, not Supermium, there will be no need for it then.

Better skip that one, and wait for another fix. https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/228

Who told you that? My pile of garbage hardware is described at "about me" section. Take my Intel Xeon x3470 (2009), for example. It's a 15 years piece of old junk, but Supermium runs fine on it, even with GPU-pocess totally disabled. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/42932/intel-xeon-processor-x3470-8m-cache-2-93-ghz.html

I got banned from the PM forums for calling Tobin many bad names. However after he banned Tobin for good, MC rethought that decision and unbanned me. And yes the forums there are much calmer. After all the hate Tobin spewed about MSFN I actually joined MSFN

crazy

I've just tried. I have zero troubles clicking on "Edit Topic" in my intro posts/topics. It allows me without any problems.

Recently @XPerceniolreported the same Forbidden issue in the below topic, several times he couldn't post with (copyright protected?) links. https://msfn.org/board/topic/182193-the-msfn-café-a-penny-for-your-thoughts/?do=findComment&comment=1259125 https://msfn.org/board/topic/182193-the-msfn-café-a-penny-for-your-thoughts/?do=findComment&comment=1259146 That said, all the links I want to attach or post, I have no troubles with doing so. I post from an unnamed Chromium browser based on v.119. (not Supermium)

In 2012+ mobos voltage is usually shown in BIOS. Voltage drops should be visible in any somewhat decent motherboard made after that year, for example my MSIB85 reports voltage fluctuations in real time.

Chromium browsers simply changed the user folder path somewhere around 90s versions, the launcher needs to be updated to reflect that change.

Na-ah, that just breaks other applications. I don't have a problem with chrome.dll having to be relocated at runtime. Can still move Chrome's DLLs a bit further from default address, which is better approach since those are larger than api* ones. rebase.exe -b 10040000 chrome.dll libEGL.dll libGLESv2.dll vk_swiftshader.dll vulkan-1.dll Actually this has improved things for me - thanks! as it turned out, that didn't help much if at all; at least on my Dell 745 Optiplex. This flag is pointless since what it disables is non-functional on XP to begin with. And there's a checkbox for it in the settings anyway. I never use disable that on supported systems anyway, it's basically saying: "I don't want to use my graphics card that I paid good money for, I prefer the slow laggy and choppy graphics content, animations and scrolling." Or: "My onboard GPU and drivers suck so I have to turn the acceleration off to avoid bugs and glitches."

I totally agree. But I am no longer annoyed by some of the characters in that forum. And I'm even surprised that there are also people who argue fairly and decently, and appreciate work which is completely free of charge for them.

Thanks! Good to know.

Inside your programme folder of Serpent 52 is a subfolder named browser where you have to extract the omni.ja file to a folder in which the hudservice.js file can be found under chrome\devtools\modules\devtools\client\webconsole\.

1 - Thanks, will keep in mind. 2 - From what I had been taught at school/academy/university - was Dutch, even Japanese for some time and then British ! Not sure about now. [1] - Hey, but they were. Looks like not anymore, and many thanks for bringing it to my attention ! I own such IDE-SATA adapters and also many Addon-cards from Germany (they all have the famous green Siemens board). NO "Made in Taiwan" shown on them. Since you can post links to the shops , I think I also can , here's the place where I bought them and many other parts. https://www.computeruniverse.net/en/p/90745130 I honestly don't know who the owner of the shop is ! Perhaps you will help us to find out ? All I know - the store is German. All parcels arrive from Western Germany. (not DDR, or ex-DDR or whatever they called it in English).

Never got any troubles with the German DeLOCK IDE->SATA Adapters. Need my German store link ? I can send it to you via messages. There also was some made in Austria, but very expensive.

Hm, maybe a new forum restriction for some Videos in 2024?

DRM is disabled in Supermium, and even if it could be enabled (I haven't tried), as per @VistaLover, it wouldn't work. I don't use DRM, didn't claim it works. I only say an unconstrained Supermium 121 in XP gets widewine, something I haven't seen in years.

Don't even start , I can write poems about how win7 sucks, we can go a long off-topic way. As for Supermium+Win7, win32 wrote it has "...widespread reports of freezing and instability on Windows 7". https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/230#issuecomment-1924401385

Thanks, I too try to ignore that dude as much as possible, I think he's just trolling around to get attention. He perfectly knows why we are here and what systems we use. I too have some "modern" hardware (though not so modern anymore, 2017-2018). It never saw real usage due to the same absence of drivers. That said, I don't think Supermium and its usage on Windows 11 is off-topic (if we remove his usual dubious blabbery/slang/cursing). The other important question, why win32 simply didn't base Supermium on the ready-made Ungoogled builds in the first place.

Confirmed Changed URL in first post to remove actions.

This did the trick.

... As I and several others already wrote, that WidevineCDM dll requires Win7SP1+ functions to run; even on Win7SP1+, the CDM won't properly work on many "popular" DRM'ed services (Netflix, Spotify, hulu, etc.), because those sites demand its VMP (Verified Media Path) feature, but open-source (non-mainstream) implementations like Supermium aren't being sanctioned by Google for that purpose... https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/169#issuecomment-1901651703 https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/127 https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/61

I used to only delete the startup cache upon every new release of SP 52.9, like one has to do with KMeleon updates, but with SP it's not needed apparently.

Works absolutely fine for me. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the first post in one of my ported Opera topics and didn't get "403".

:OT The last time, I heard this saying was in the film "Next" with Nicolas Cage but in German: "Keine gute Tat bleibt ungestraft". :END OF OT

But the biggest joke I've read there is that you can't download my release because there are adverts on Mediafire preventing the download. Where does he live?

Well done! I have not been able to find any useful information about these strange strings either.

<em:targetApplication RDF:resource="rdf:#$FHDH01"/> <em:targetApplication RDF:resource="rdf:#$KHDH01"/> <em:targetApplication RDF:resource="rdf:#$PHDH01"/> <em:targetApplication RDF:resource="rdf:#$RHDH01"/> Did you find any information about these strings or did you just make up #$RHDH01?

Unfortunately, I didn't. But thanks! Any further information on that?

Didn't those gents cost Feodor his last git? Anyhow, last XP-compatible version released ~10 years ago, so irrelevant to this thread. Last XP/Vista-compatible build released ~5 years ago. Are you suggesting the wellbeing of our beloved Information Superhighway depends on these? And the question stands: what, specifically, are they saving?

I'm currently in love with this one: Zenburn High Contrast Dark Theme https://www.deviantart.com/eluinstra/art/Zenburn-High-Contrast-Dark-Theme-for-Windows-8-552177110 you can then open chrome://flags and change these: Forced colors: Disabled (so CSS images and backgrounds are displayed) Dark theme: Enabled (in case you don't want white backgrounds) (no UX theme patch required since it's high contrast theme) or hc-midnight-v033 / win8msa https://github.com/nitschis/GreyEveTheme anyway, since you asked for AERO dark theme... https://www.vinstartheme.com/sem-theme/ https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v= e_ebJiTHl5U https://winaero.com/gray8-theme-visual-style-for-windows-8/ https://www.deviantart.com/hkk98/art/2012-theme-Windows-8-Dark-Version-286725057 https://www.deviantart.com/ezio/art/Gray8MOD-dark-Visual-Style-Windows-8-1-Upd-1-U20-346677370 https://www.deviantart.com/hkk98/art/2012-theme-7N8-Windows-Dark-Metro-29814121

Thanks! I don't know. In any case, not from my side. I'm not really a fan of Chrome. Under Windows XP, I mainly use New Moon 28, Mypal 68 and Serpent, all descendants of old Firefox versions. On my Android tablet, I have to put up with a pure Chrome world. Then please not under Windows XP as well. I hope you can understand that.

Yeah not only to the grave, I intend to be still using my old junk in hell.

Interesting! How do you change the white colour folder background in Windows 8 (not 8.1)?

As most (if not all) decisions on Wikipedia (right or wrong as it may be) it seems like the usual internal war about who has more power or is capable to win a logic argument on the (stupidly complex) wikipedia internal rules and voting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Google_Chrome_version_history_(2nd_nomination) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review#Google_Chrome_version_history_(2nd_nomination) jaclaz

Thank you! So far all is good. All my four IDE hard disk in my Windows XP computer are in an excellent condition. And I have two Dawicontrol SATA PCI cards on reserve. But I hope I do not have to use them. I think I would even rather change the motherboard.

Of course, not! The last years, only from time to time. All for nostalgic and rather sentimental reasons! It's just contemporary history. And I have always been an Atari fan.

@VistaLover Kind and helpful people like you make this forum warmer and inviting to visit more frequently. Nasty egoboosters having fun trampling over innocent others make forums icy and hostile. Keep your 'longwinded' postings coming please. Always very valuable and interesting! Although I usually don't react, but appreciate them, very much :)

... Then get yourself educated! ... and there's no need to "scream" with bold capitals In fact, you should care who that person is: He's the "right hand", so to speak - no insult intended to left-handed people , of Moonchild himself, an integral part of Moonchild Productions, the dev team behind the UXP platform and all the applications built on it: Pale Moon 28 [New Moon 28.x.xa1], Basilisk 52 [Serpent 52.9.0] and Matt A. Tobin's most recent offerings, Interlink [Mail News] and Borealis Navigator [BorealisXP]... Matt A. Tobin contributes a lot of code to the UXP repo, all this code will end up virtually unchanged inside @roytam1's XP/Vista compatible forks... He's infamous for harbouring a strong aversion to Windows XP (and Windows Vista) and being generally extremely hostile to fans/users of these OSes; and make no mistake: he'll go the extra mile to make sure his code is NOT compatible with said OSes, making Roy's hard work even harder ... So yes, the subject of "Matt Tobin" is sort of relevant to this thread... It seems my previous detailed reply to you has fallen onto deaf ears (or shut eyes, to be precise...); Roytam's task is not to rewrite the Pale Moon code committed by the Moonchild Productions team to accommodate a specific user's personal needs, he has only reverted those bits of code that prevent it from compiling and successfully running on XP+Vista OSes, period... Had you bothered to check my link to UPX PR #874, you would have noticed that Matt A. Tobin had nothing to do with the "tab-audio-indicator" code that you're implying and you feel strongly vexed about; this PR was submitted by @FranklinDM, another dev in their team... We haven't yet witnessed in this thread other NM28 users complaining about the issue affecting your setup(s), so, as of now, it appears to be only manifesting itself on your systems; worse yet, you haven't produced a list of system specifics and detailed reproduction steps so as to facilitate troubleshooting of your issue... Moonchild code targets "recent" Oses (Win7+) and "recent" hardware (e.g. SSE2+ capable CPU), so if your system is under-resourced it would not run NM28 properly... In closing, if "rebuild NM28 without the new feature" is what you actually want, then, again, I have provided the links for that: 1. Clone the UXP repo 2. Revert PR #874 commits 3. Apply latest UXP patch by Roytam1 4. Provided you have a suitable building environment set up (Win7SP1+ 64-bit with 12+GB RAM, Visual Studio 2015+,etc. ), build from modified source; I am certain that @roytam1 would be willing to guide you through, that is if his spare time permits him to... So, no more moaning on your side, please...

Heuristic engines are always snake oil (so is Norton's SONAR engine), never trust it. It is always good to disable it, in case you can't do so, add exclusion to folders you don't want it to scan.
