Currently CatsXP says that Windows 7 is required. Are they gonna up that soon following other software? These features were later copied into other browsers or extensions. But Opera had them in the 2000s first. Opium and Supermium don't have troubles with Cloudflare. Some sites have a hard security mode, like Rate Your Music, and I just have to click the box every few hours. Other sites require it less frequently.

So there are voting buttons on YouTube and Facebook. Curiously how in New Moon the icons for negative votes don't immediately show up. They may appear after a delay. It is still possible to press those buttons. In Facebook, only the thumbs up and heart show. Among the negatives is laughter, sadness and anger (nothing worse). It looks like a push not to use those. Using New Moon in these places has gotten too slow, but I still stick to it because I don't want to open another browser all the time.

It was the best browser of its time with some much functionality that requires plugins on other browsers. Selection from within links, selective disablement of javascript, download resuming, urfilter, importing of certificates, saving of forms when pressing the back button. I still use new Opera (Opium) because it is at least as good as other Chrome browsers, and they added a few things to it.

Often you need to turn off javascript after the page is loaded, or it won't load right without it. I still use Opera 12 (very old) which allows this without an extension.

I search youtube on Google site:youtube.com. Search on the site itself brings up very approximate results that repeat. Too bad num=X argument just stopped working on Google. Maybe they read MSFN.

The most annoying situation is when I open a video, wait to skip the advertisements, then immediately seek on the timeline to a spot of interest without watching more than a couple seconds, and another set of advertisements then play. I can't say that I remember those advertisements. With autoplay disabled, YouTube shows a static picture with some writing that doesn't burn into memory. I still have to wait to skip it. I think the new Opera browser was shown, but maybe that was a sponsored segment. Since the blocking on YouTube is now very complicated, I haven't even invenstigated what I need for it, and keep that thing updated.

If you have a lot of RAM memory (to make use of PAE) that in itself consumes space in the kernel memory where a translation table is kept. Drivers allocate kernel memory for their own needs. For this reason /3GB might lead to instability with only 1 GB left over. /USERVA allows to tune the boundary to give a little more user memory, such as 2.5 GB.

I got rid of Tampermonkey now that there is an autoplay disablement. It seems to work only once per tab. Once a video plays, more new videos will play too. When I go to Settings -> Search engines, I can open a dialog with Name, Shortcut and URL. But the URL box is disabled, which is barely noticeable with everything white. What is the point of this if I can't type into the box? It should be made to work. I want to add &num=50& to it to see more results.

Recent versions on New Moon can pass the check. But it takes a long time on a slower CPU and sometimes you need to refresh the page. That's just how it is now. The challenge is giving the client some processor workout. There is also Supermium that is much faster.

What kind of computer and how much RAM does it take to compile New Moon today? We're trying to use this or that old PC, but RoyTam must have a Chinese Supercomputer running the latest Windows or Linux.

Is the GUI aspect of current Linux running applications notably lighter though? The increase in graphical overhead seems to be across the board in software.

Interrupted downloads in Supermium and Opera disappear. The file .crdownload gets deleted. This seems to be a new universal Chrome thing. In older browsers it was possible to examine and use the incomplete file or attempt to resume it if the server cooperates. Can we it working in Supermium too? Moreover, there is no error message when a download is gone. It is only visible inside the download manager as "check internet connection".

That tool will add the same registry entries to do what it promises.

What is different in the other installer? Is it a different built that only runs on Win10? It means that the thing they found is known to execute commands, not that they actually detected coming from Supermium. "Pleasant colours". You need a tube/valve powered video card with warm colors to counter blue light sickness. Haha.

Yes this generation doesn't support VP9. It was added in GTX9xx and only a base profile. With a downloader, h.264 can still be requested for most videos.

I get 0% video engine load on Windows 2008 R2. The GPU is irrelevant. "Use graphics acceleration when available" is checkmarked or whatever you call the sliding round knob. The CPU is cooking. It's the VP09 format that Google invented that is not decodable by the video adapter. Best to download video using YouTube-DL Plus and watch it in peace in Media Player Classic Homecinema. https://msfn.org/board/topic/184368-who-here-has-a-youtube-dl-compile-for-winxp/ https://i.imgur.com/Bim5e11.png The new Supermium so far seems to be working as well as before.

Sounds awfully complicated just to start a download. I'll let them figure it out as I don't understand any of it. We had sites with buttons for preview and uploading a long time ago.

Why is it that the Download button doesn't do anything on Pixeldrain.com file sharing tool in New Moon? I don't know anything about scripting, and I remember this is how Opera fell into obscurity as one day you couldn't log in anymore or press other essential buttons. https://pixeldrain.com/u/CsSnZBSa

There is one thing that I've found annoying on Firefox browsers lately. If I select some text and want to press Ctrl-C to copy it, and then I press Control while still dragging with the mouse, it transitions to selecting whole table cells and the initial selection is lost. It doesn't happen on most websites today where the layout is somehow not a table even though it looks like it (tables became not as cool as divs), but on others, like older forums, tables are still used. I couldn't figure out what was happening for a while, and thought it was something for "accessibility".

I understand it as it couldn't open a 3D application (game) at all, and could only do Windows GUI. Even older drivers were quite different on NT5 and NT6, and not interchangeble. The NT6 driver doesn't use paged pool so much and has the new display scaling page.

I use Total Commander all the time and even bought it. Works well, and good compatibility with old OS. The author still thinks about Windows 98 occasionally. But he also made the design flat to not be quite dismissed by the new crowd. A fine balance.

It shouldn't impact speed. The patch was for quickly opening many connections. I think Server probably doesn't need the patch. Maybe you need to tune the TCP parameters in the registry: send and receive window. Those are probably the same in the 64-bit version.

Wait until some years pass, and people will remember how great Windows 11 was in comparison to what will be current then. Look how people say Vista, Millennium or Metro weren't that bad. You have no choice but to be assimilated. The "fluent" Web UI of normal applications is a resource hog and definitely creates obsolescence. You also have to have a big screen to see enough content. It also makes the computer look like an "app" to which I am a guest. More of your snobbery, which is off-topic. Windows WDM uses cubic resampling, which is fast and good enough. The artifacts of full band resampling sound nothing like mp3. Where you would notice a difference is in old games that used low sampling rates and would appear muffled and brickwalled with the better resampling algorithms. A common rate is needed to mix the output of multiple applications. Video content comes in 48 kHz, and multichannel downmixing to stereo in XP only works when the system's rate matches. Simple non-professional sound cards internally run at 48 kHz. You can always pick a professional sound card like an E-MU model with excellent support under XP (sans PAE) and use the ASIO interface, which bypasses Windows. Windows NT 6 introduced the audiodg process and WASAPI that caused crackling on some systems. They have a special priority allocation to make it work smoothly. XP's sound is in kernel drivers and is uninterruptible. There was actually a KB2653312 patch to make the now legacy Wave API in Windows Seven use a better resampling rather than whatever poor choice was the default.

No such limit on Windows 2003 itself. May be limited by the controller driver. Windows 2003 officially supports GPT and works with at least 4 TB disks. You can browse an upartitioned disk past the 2 TB mark, for example, in WinHex.

Which experimental features would you recommend switching for maximum compatibility?
