That's pre-release for Microsoft, actually. I need them to remove update block as I'm unable to work it around without a jigsaw.4 points

Regarding Mypal 68, all related to localisation and internationalisation has not been implemented yet. No correct local times. No time zones. This was reported by me long time ago: https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal68/issues/963 points

I hope @Tihiy doesn't get upset with me for posting this. But I downloaded the latest pre-release build for 3.7.9. I frequently check to see if any new pre release builds are published out of habit since I have a little OCD about SAB since I love it so much. I have the pre-release download link bookmarked in my browser. The new build installs on 26100 without having to rename the exe and the classic taskbar is disabled out of the box. Simply clicking the toggle and restarting explorer enables it and everything works. Seems like we're saved! Update! More good news! Thank you Tihiy for continuing to support this wonderful application that brings such a lightweight and clean experience to our PCs! You are the man!!2 points

How can I integrate this into Windows XP? Is there an installation file or a ready-made file that I can copy to a specific folder? Unfortunately, I am not familiar with this. This was just a hint that Elliptic Curve Cryptography can be ported to Windows XP. No more, no less. How this can be done, no idea. The linked project is not documented more detailed. But as you stated clearly, you like such short information. Personally, I do not really need such a port.2 points

@Sampei.Nihira's favourite "Encrypted ClientHello" - is missing from this browser. https://github.com/Alex313031/Thorium-Win/issues/199 As it was introduced quite a long time ago, in 115(?) or so, how can we be sure it's indeed v.122, and not that faked old engine 115 from the old China port? @NotHereToPlayGames, what do you think? Alex. F. didn't respond, so far.2 points

I don't have to prove anything to anyone, I only wrote what I saw a very long time ago, I don't have a github account, I don't follow what's up there. But someone who distributes cr*cks would logically want to hide the real location, no? BTW, the username is still very Russian, and his English speaks for itself. By this very logic you would demand proof win32 is from Canada, right? As for me, I'm 100% certain win32 is from Canada. Alex F., on other hand, well, you know. In any case, don't use the browser if you're worried. Solved.2 points

No, we don't. You said: This statement does not refer to any cert stores. You have to stand by what you said. Maybe, you should correct this statement so that it can be assigned a Boolean truth value of true again. The evidence can be found in the previous posts.2 points

The problem that new firefoxes, supposed they done mentioned 1346211 bug, take the timezone from the OS anyway then send it to the icu and mess through its own big timezone tables, and then adjust time, which they take from the OS too, why??? Meanwhile time zone names differs in winxp and win7, and of course icu tables set to win7 names so fails on winxp. I don't get this foul behavior, I made to take the time zone and time from OS "AS IS" , I think OS knows better what time and browser should not mess with it, but I did not know about "toLocaleTimeString"1 point

I have done a test to check the behavior of the Paragon GPT Loader driver with the 2TB limit in an XP system configured in IDE mode. After formatting my 4TB Seagate ST4000LM024 GPT disk in Win10, I started to fill it always in Win10 by copying in a progressive way the files numbered from 01 to 432 until to reach 2,194,897,825,792 bytes (at the end of the copy I made sure that all the files were uncorrupted): After connecting the disk to the XP system with Paragon GPT Loader installed, I first verified again that all files were not corrupted and then copied a single file to the disk reaching a total of 2,199,889,600,512 bytes: Checking once again the integrity of all files, I noticed that the first file copied a few days earlier (the one marked with the number 01) was now corrupt while all the others were intact. But on the next system reboot, here is what happened: The problem encountered is almost the same as the one I detected using the asmedia asahci32.sys driver in a system configured in SATA/AHCI mode. The difference, which is no insignificant, is that at least with the asmedia driver, by following the identical procedure above, the drive was still accessible in XP and other files were still correctly available although the 2,199,023,255,552 bytes limit was exceeded. At this point, I also have serious doubts whether the GPT Loader can effectively work on 3TB GPT disks. It certainly does not work on 4TB GPT disks.1 point

But I think you are getting us closer to understanding what's going on... I think the default values for .toLocaleString() are based on your various system settings: I have English (United Kingdom) as my XP regional country... . (GMT +00:00) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London with Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes as my XP Date and Time Properties... And English/United Kingdom [en-gb] as my Firefox and Serpent language setting... This should default to: new Date().toLocaleString('en-gb', {timeZone: 'Europe/London'}); And I think that's the problem... it's all about the defaults values. Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone; ...will tell you your default time zone. For me, under original Firefox this reports: "Europe/London" which is correct. But under Serpent it reports: "UTC" which is plain, unadjusted, time. So now the question is, where is Serpent getting the "UTC" string from and why doesn't it get "Europe/London"? Ben.1 point

Don't think most people who run XP/Vista today do it out of practical considerations/because their HW can't handle a later OS. For me, it's more like running a vintage car as a daily driver -- impractical, hard to explain the appeal, but fun nevertheless.1 point

Still have my SEGA Genesis here too I think it's not about nostalgia nowadays, the world was really a bit better some years ago. We've lost the beautiful shapes in buildings, cars, cities... why do we need to completely convert a car to a InternetOfThings-car? do we really need a screen replacing the speedometer? same is happening with Windows OS, Taskbar was perfect before... I never believed in the sentence there are two types of people (there are tons of different people) but we can now starting to see 2 types of people: Those who grew in a world where there were no Internet or Smartphones, and the others.1 point

That's exactly why I use Proxomitron but it is "too complex" for most people to "learn", they want something like uBO where "lists" are put together for them. Instead of teaching a man to fish and feeding him for a lifetime, web browser users just want that one fish to be fed to them one at a time, they have no interest in "learning how to fish". For example, the very MSFN page we are on right now has FIFTY scripts. My Proxomitron blocks 13 of them before the web browser even sees them (also why I do not need 20/30/60 uBO lists and my FIVE do just fine. I guarantee that my FIVE uBO lists coupled with my Proxomitron config is blocking way way wwaayyy more than those 20/30/60 uBO "spoon-fed" lists. ps - Proxomitron counts actual physical scripts, inline and fetched, unlike uMatrix or uBO which only counts fetched files.1 point

Encrypted ClientHello is currently supported, and it wasn't "teared" by Google. But it's absent in Thorium. This topic is about Thorium, not Supermium, some here still isnist those two "aren't clones". https://blog.cloudflare.com/announcing-encrypted-client-hello/1 point

@Ben Markson & @roytam1 : Although what I'll bring up concerns a different browser engine (360EEv13, based on Chromium 86), perhaps the time discrepancy is attributed to a Windows XP quirk/bug, especially if you take into account that upstream codebases (UXP by MCP, Chromium 86) were never meant to be run under Windows XP ... In the autumn of 2022, our dear @Dave-H complained about 01:00 discrepancies in the timestamps of the history entries of his 360EEv13 profile under XP, when the UK observes BST (UTC+01:00); this issue doesn't manifest itself when the same profile is launched under his Win10 partition; mitigation of the issue, though, under XP involved unchecking the "Automatically adjust clock for DST" control panel setting and manually selecting a region with a [UTC+01:00] timezone for the duration BST is being observed ; you can read the exchange between me and Dave by going to https://msfn.org/board/topic/182876-360-extreme-explorer-modified-version/?do=findComment&comment=1226930 and do read some posts after that (and the previous page, too, if you don't mind ) ... Best regards !1 point

That's not the question I asked. Anyways, we can't even be sure it's on the level of the 114 engine. Many flags and/or functions are missing, just read on github.1 point

I think I'll try either browser on XP again next time when/if GPU acceleration makes a comeback. Right now, Win10/Win11 with all the background processes still have SIGNIFICANT advantage running Chromium on my (aging) hardware. Though you could also say XP hasn't seen significant changes in over a decade. But in either case, latest Chrome and retro don't go together too well. It's a bit like trying to get Grand Theft Auto V going on PlayStation 2. I wouldn't expect much on very old computers.1 point

Thank you so much, that's great! Perhaps rather strangely as it's superficially so similar, that option does not seem to exist in Supermium.1 point

A George King fan, his driver collection has been a lifesaver, but it's not the same -- the source code was leaked, many new exploits found. Update packs (past whatever Legacy Update installs/are already a part of XP Integ One Who Must Not Be Named) seem a bit like installing more locks in a house of straw. Posted from XP x64/Supermium btw.1 point

I don't think that filters, which are considered by uBO invalid, will properly do their job anyway. That is probably clear to everyone. I am not fully convinced that these values are really meaningful. The filter engine is very old, and the modern filter lists contain more and more syntax which presumably can't be executed successfully by it.1 point
-
To block most elements or objects whatever they are, you surely need more filter lists in the last legacy versions of uBlock Origin than in the webextension. A lot of filters are consindered invalid by the legacy extension due to the old filter engine which lags almost 6 years behind the webextension in terms of development. Open the logger and perform an update of your filter lists in the legacy version! Then you will see what I am talking about. In any case, I get a lot of notifications about invalid filters when checking the logger. But one thing I can say without any further proofs. You are using too few filter lists to block as much as possible with the legacy extension.1 point
-
Just what I say. I use much more filter lists than you. Two of them you have enabled are not used in my installation. When I am back at my desktop computer, I will provide a screenshot of my current configuration for better comparison. What I definitely know at this moment is that in my uBlock Origin Legacy installation of New Moon 28, I have enabled 21 filter lists plus my self-created filters under the tab "My filters".1 point
-
I would never use two ad blockers at once. uBlock Origin is totally sufficient and can block most things. But it has to be configured correctly. Your five lists are not sufficient. Even the two YouTube lists can't change that. All filter lists under "Built-in" should be enabled. But uBO can do much more. You can remove annoying elements from websites and create your own filters, and so on. And BTW, one further extension consumes more resources than enabling a few filter lists in uBO.1 point

Stop threatening MSFN members. If you are so disgusted by the collective decision of the Reddit's highly respected community to officially label it as "child pornography distribution", if you don't agree with the results of the investigation, just ignore those posts. And this matter is directly related to the compromised security of that browser and safety of MSFN members, consequently - it's not off-topic.1 point

From what I remember it had a problem with saving from DuckGo. It save without the file extensions. I can be mistaken.1 point

Not exactly true. There are publicly known ways of modern encryption to avoid that. Therefore, at best - they will know only the sites you connect to, but not traffic.1 point

there is a big shift at now-days idiocracy / de-evolution i guess it is only natural that we crave to stay in time when things were better for ourself's i still save some toys from my pre-teen years last week i bought a board game i last played back in 1995 (they don't make them anymore) i hold to my Sega Genesis (and bunch of cartriges) in closet, even if i know i will never power it up again1 point
