There is a pretty good (i.e. up to date) mirror of UXP on GitHub at https://github.com/Basilisk-Development-Team/UXP-mirror if you are interested.

At the moment, there is only one mod for checking, uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31b2-1.54.0 from this post.. But another mod is coming very soon that is strictly orientated on version 1.16.4.31b2. It is my new release uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31.

I was blocked on the XDA-dev site in exactly the same way as it was on the How-To-Geek site. And the same trick via Block Element works there, too. Thus, both rules are identical: ! 2024-01-13 https://www.howtogeek.com www.howtogeek.com##.bOvWNQ ! 2024-01-13 https://www.xda-developers.com www.xda-developers.com##.bOvWNQ

It does run normally on capable CPUs natively. Intel SDE slows down even CPU-Z immensely. Not sure if there are any tricks to speed it up (not a developer with proper expertise to use the tool), but I can imagine the goal of making existing compiled Windows executable execute when it normally wouldn't being complicated.

New build of post-deprecated Serpent/moebius for XP! * Notice: This repo will not be built on regular schedule, and changes are experimental as usual. ** Current moebius patch level should be on par with 52.9, but some security patches can not be applied/ported due to source milestone differences between versions.

... FWIW, I can now access it here fine: In the PMForum link above, it was mentioned that: ... so, is your HK IP address blocked by Moonchild still? Do you have access to a VPN service with, e.g., European nodes?

Hello and welcome, Dylan Taylor, what a wonderful name! Are you a rock star?

Hi, how're doing? You caught me right in this topic. xD! Well, I'm guessing it's a Gigabyte model? They do tend to intentionally complicate thing so you would buy a new one. I've never seen the 32 bit version of the aforementioned driver.

Officially added to my arsenal. This route works hand-in-hand with my other "stuff". The as-an-extension route was not "playing well" with several userstyles where I intentionally use text shadows to hide input field "placeholders" (things like "Search" inside YouTube's search bar). Why hide "placeholders"? Because I employ a routine that automatically enters usernames/passwords but nobody looking over my shoulder (can't prevent at work) can actually "see" the entry.

Piece of cake! You don't need the extension. All it does is apply a .css text shadow to all text. You can do that in any style editor such as Stylus/Stylish/Stylem or even via Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey or even via Firefox's own userChrome.css. To me, the font enhancer extension is "redundant" if the browser profile is already utilizing something like Stylus/Tampermonkey/etc.

Is alive, for now. Salvation.

The new version not completed yet, to be during next month. @dapgo This addon has "incognito": "not_allowed", while Mypal not - thus fails. I removed that thing at all - addons enabled regardless private mode. However mypal has own multitabs

Thank you, very unfortunate, seems we're running low on drivers' sites, they're dropping like flies.

That's why you need to use OEM drivers. "Throttling on all drivers from nvidia site - laptop" https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/game-ready-drivers/13/292634/throttling-on-all-drivers-from-site-nvidia-laptop-/ "That's your "punishment" for buying laptops for gaming. You're fully at the mercy of the manufacturer, and rely on their driver updates, instead of being able to just use Nvidia's generic drivers and constant improvements." "You'll have to get back to whatever driver is offered for your laptop on Acer's website." "This is because the OEM manufacturer is the manufacturer of the graphics device (card); not Nvidia, which only produces the physical "chip" to these manufacturers. Vram, PCB, VRM, trace, and cooling are all designed by the OEM manufacturer; thus is considered as "proprietary" hardware. In which; has it's own thermal and power limits that can be effected with use of 3rd party (vanilla) drivers and can damage or lower the performance of the hardware. (Not to mention interfere with the unit's Optimus switching ability). The laptop model# must also be added to the supported driver ID list by Nvidia prior to the unit being supported via 3rd party vanilla drivers."

Saved the post to the phone, then forgot. This one is wonderful. https://www.station-drivers.com/index.php/en/driverss/5/view,containers/sort_order,0/lang,en-gb/

Or this one, very good! https://www.touslesdrivers.com/

For those that seek laptop drivers, I can suggest this site. https://driverscollection.com/

Topic can be closed if the admins wish to do so.

Thanks for the idea, I'm not familiar with that man. Anyways, I already found everything on another site. Life goes on!

@VistaLover Do you think this filter list is worth to be added to the default lists of uBlock Origin? And are there others you would recommend to add to the default ones?

This is always to be expected with old, no longer really further developed extensions for UXP browsers & co. and is generally unavoidable. If it only affects a few pages, it's easy to get over. I will also test the two websites with my upcoming release uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31. @UCyborg First of all, the How-To-Geek website is a bit clumsy in New Moon 28 and leads to high processor utilisation on older, weak systems. For comparison purpose, I checked this site first in Mypal 68 with uBlock Origin 1.49.2 activated. Here is a screenshot with the filtering results: As you already stated, no problems there. The How-To-Geek website does not block uBlock Origin 1.49.2, and uBO does its job properly. Then, I checked this website in New Moon 28 with uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 activated. Here is a screenshot with the filtering results: The How-To-Geek website recognises uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 as an adblocker and prevents the loading of the actual content. That means uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 works but it is simply blocked. Thus, one has to make some special settings in uBlock Origin 1.16.4.31 to get this website loading but without allowing all ads. Here are my settings I have made to block as many ads as possible: And that's something I can live with.

Yes, there is. Try HLS Stream Detector 0.4.3! You will find it in the Classic Add-ons Archive via this link: caa:addon/hls-stream-detector. I used it in the past, and it worked great. Whether this extension is still working in these days, you simply have to test it yourself after installation. Please report here!
