  1. Yes, the page above is the official Supermium website. And the account was flagged for "spamming". as I found out when trying to export the repository directly from GitHub to GitLab. The repositories were not deleted, but they are hidden from public view along with my account itself. At the time of this incident, I had built Chromium 124-based Supermium and it worked on XP (x86 and x64). But I still had a few deficiencies to correct before even a pre-release, specifically graphical glitches with GPU enabled, some upstream UI bugs, plus other outstanding bugs reported recently. Other features such as a UA/UACH spoofer and UI customization were being worked on as well. I reiterate that there is no malware in Supermium, progwrp, its installer and its uninstaller.

  2. De-googled link without tracking. Can't you just play the video through MPC-HC with hardware acceleration (use Open With extension). From the release notes of v1.7.0: Thanks for your information! I have installed MPC-HC 2.1.2.18 on my Windows XP machine for months, and hardware acceleration is generally available in my system. Additionally, I have configured the 3D Settings via the NVIDIA Control Panel. Furthermore, I have enabled LAV Filters’Nvidia CUVID decoder for using hardware acceleration in MPC, and it works fine. However, more problematic is the video hardware acceleration inside browsers under Windows XP. It is running much better in New Moon 28 than in the others. PS: Thanks for un-googling the link! I posted it from my Android tablet, and there is everything googled as you surely know.

  3. That link was supplied by @UCyborg. I never heard of it before. I don't know whether it's official or not. Nothing to worry about. No illegal content there.

  4. The win32ss account on GitHub was flagged for an unspecified reason. I am going through the appeal process to restore it, but I will make sure the repository surfaces somewhere else such as GitLab even if GitHub does accept the appeal.

  6. Like I already explained, it's something very strange because the page had been cleansed out completely, they made it look like nothing ever was there. We all need to demand explanations. And like Dixel said, win32 please get back.

  7. I don't agree. When a takedown happens, they freaking write it was a takedown! A recent example was when they took down Rabinovitch's "cra_ked" Chrome and Opera. In this case it had been cleared out completely.

  8. I agree with you, and everyone knows: I love @win32, but then again, win32 has an account here, all it would take just a minute to post a relaxing comment! Don't you think? I mean, we (at least I) deserve this much. I was always loyal to win32.

  11. I don't know what to think about the future, all I read/hear about are wars and microplastics everywhere. Not that long ago I watched the documentary, didn't pick on title or just forgot, but it basically said something along the lines that sources of drinking water are being depleted at alarming rate, faster than they can be replenished. And we're just going about our daily lives like automatons. Tomorrow's just another work day. It's all so absurd.

  12. @reboot12 @Dietmar not sure if can be helpful here but you can try with "setup_var" which can be used to change hidden UEFI values by using a modded Grub EFI shell (rename it as bootia32.efi / bootx64.efi) Well, it's used to boot legacy mode, on systems that do not have exit to EFI shell on BIOS exit page example here https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=12774&pid=59489#pid59489 and about CFG Lock, you can try... https://github.com/QuanTrieuPCYT/Dell-Latitude-5480_Hackintosh/blob/main/Disable_CFG_Lock.md anyway, sure you both know more than me about this and, perhaps, AmiSetupWriter.efi can do the same. [...] what `setup_var` does is access an EFI variable called "Setup". The variable contains a binary blob, and the command sets a particular binary value at a given offset inside that blob. What IFRextract calls "VarStore" is mapped onto an EFI variable, via the GUID and "name" field that IFRextract reports for each varstore. You can use the `dmpstore` command builtin to UEFI Shell to inspect EFI vars, including the "Setup" var. See [2] for an EFI application which provides similar functionality to the `setup_var` command. To use it, save the `setup_var.efi` EFI application on any file system accessible by UEFI Shell, then boot into UEFI Shell and run `setup_var.efi` to do what you need. I've also seen references that imply `setup_var` is UEFI shell builtin command, but that doesn't seem to be the case. from what I can tell that command was (at least once) available via patches to either UEFI shell, or grub. But never in upstream "UEFI shell" [1] https://github.com/datasone/setup_var.efi [2] https://github.com/LongSoft/Universal-IFR-Extractor credits: user JamesKen @ archlinux org

  13. While my solution to the update issue is different, since I am using a network segment, the same can be applied to a single system. I block all Microsoft domains and IPs, and thus the systems cannot update. Then I can use any OS I want. RTM = Release to Manufacturing and to be clear, the RTM versions were only made available in the OEM channel as either a download or physical media, and I've never once seen an RTM disc for sale in the secondary market. The closest you can legally get to using RTM would be to use a System Builder Kit. And RTM should not be used to mean "no service pack" because Windows 7 SP1 has an RTM version also.

  14. No, <ProductKey> is not supported with WinNTSetup's direct WIM apply. Maybe you can use FirstLogonCommands to run: slmgr /ipk M7XTQ-FN8P6-TTKYV-9D4CC-J462D

  15. Thanks! TBH, I know all of that. I have installed uBlock Origin in Firefox and Kiwi. Additionally, the Adguard app to block ads in my system. But very often I use Opera, and Adguard is not permanently enabled. At such moments, Google strikes.

  16. I believe uBlock Origin is a supported add-on on Firefox for Android. Then you can enable "AdGuard URL Tracking Protection" and optionally "Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool" (link).

  18. Four minutes is nothing! If we are to assume what they claim about "collecting, harvesting user data" is true. You need to accumulate some valuable info in your profile. Bank credentials (use fake ones).

  19. Thanks, but no one here uses installers, esp. the user named @NotHereToPlayGames. I too can give a rats arse to those installers. Could you be so kind to test the actual files and post in Spuermium's topic? /Thanks/

  20. Yesterday, I did further testing of the hardware acceleration in New Moon 28, Serpent 52, Mypal 68 and Thorium. This feature now works in all of them but video hardware acceleration seems to be a problem. YouTube videos run best in New Moon 28 and worst in Thorium under my modest hardware conditions. Although video hardware acceleration has been enabled and confirmed in Thorium's chrome://gpu-internals page, it is more of a joke. At least, on my weak hardware. It does not accelerate anything and CPU utilisation is nearly 100%, regardless of the resolution.

  21. Yes, of course. Both preferences do exist in my New Moon 28 installation and profiles. I also use the most recent but standard (for SSE2 and up) version https://o.rthost.win/palemoon/palemoon-28.10.7a1.win32-git-20240525-d849524bd-uxp-f8f3b3ee43-xpmod.7z

  24. At the moment, I am testing again, but now deeply, the hardware acceleration in Thorium on my old machine equipped with the NVIDIA GeForce 6200 graphic card. And I was indeed able to enable the hardware acceleration in Thorium using both flags --use-angle=d3d9 and --ignore-gpu-blocklist. Incredibly, this mode actually still runs with my old card, and the pages load umpteen times faster than before. However, I can't run hardware accelerated canvas and rasterization together, because then undesirable side effects occur, and everything loads extremely slowly. It's a rather complicated matter of setting up and involves a lot of tests.

  25. The extension UserAgent-Switcher and Manager is the best of all I have tested. It simply works. And that is enough for me.

  26. The best way to manage your user agent is the extension UserAgent-Switcher and Manager which I recommend and use myself. You can get it here: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/user-agent-switcher-and-m/bhchdcejhohfmigjafbampogmaanbfkg You can use this extension in different modes. One is the Black-List Mode: Apply the custom user-agent string to all tabs except the tabs with the following top-level hostnames (comma-separated list of hostnames). Note that even if a window-based user-agent string is set from the toolbar popup, your browser's default user-agent string is used. Another is the White-List Mode: Only apply the custom user-agent string to the tabs with following top-level hostnames. Note that if a window-based user-agent string is set from the toolbar popup, this user-agent will overwrite the global one. The mode that corresponds to your desires is the White-List Mode. Just enter there the domain of Google Drive. Here is a screenshot: And here is the toolbar pop-up window where you enter the mobile user agent string: Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

  27. You'll just have to witness it yourself. The WinPenPack prevents (ie, "redirects") those registry entries. But you do have to be "smart enough" to edit the .INI file (and "smart enough" to delete any registry entries already present). I trust that you (smart enough, that is).

  28. I have the same problem. Firefox says all installer files from versions 1.0.0.999 and up contain a virus or malware. I'll give the benefit of the doubt and trust that it's a false positive.

  29. How much will you pay me if I can find a list of TEN cities where their temperature DECREASED for 2009 versus 2023? Again, I'm not a denier. But this IS a topic where EVERYBODY throws out "half truths" and "statistical bias" to present "their side". This most certainly is NOT a topic that MSFN is going to solve.

  32. Supermium moves to the stable branch (version 119/120) at the end of this month when the next release will be made. This should reduce the number of upstream-inherited bugs. GDI rendering should be perfected for this release as well and there will be an option to disable prompts for "unsafe downloads" (and avoid having a sample of the downloaded file possibly being sent to Google). The GDI option in particular will have improved rendering of remote fonts over Vista-level DirectWrite.
