    Any idea if this is supposed to work on old Reddit? https://old.reddit.com/r/help/comments/40tvlv/how_do_i_see_if_people_reply_to_my_comments/ Dusted off my old Reddit account and I don't think it does. New Reddit is broken, 4 different errors.

    That must have been the beginning of a free spot I found on my system when using XP x64. It's been a while since I selected it and don't recall what else was there between 60000000 and 61D90000. I can check tomorrow, but only if someone is very very curious about it. Remember, Process Hacker is your friend. The value is still pretty round in context of classic 4K pages of x86 architecture I think.

    Oh c'mon, why am I always the odd one out? Always with the bad stuff. Taskbar menu - you do mean right-click and Minimize? This one is fine, what about just left-click on the button? This one has delay. Much better in browser's safe mode without addons and just one tab. In any case, I don't notice that in other bigger and more demanding web browsers.

    Oh, so it'll be only 2 years in December. It's been about a decade since a deeply disturbing discovery about my past has occurred and considering how forward the realization of passage of time since then came, maybe that inflated my sense of how long it's been since making that post about rebasing without explicitly finding it first to be sure. So that's what I get when trying to rely on my brain. How does one just drive a car of such age? You must be good self-taught mechanic. My family keeps asking me from time to time when I'll throw that smartphone away, when I'll buy a new computer. While I can appreciate technological progress since then and I'd be probably happy with a new computer, maybe even more than with current one, there's this attachment to the old one. There's a conflict between missing out on new stuff and retiring old stuff that still does all the important things. So I do nothing. I mostly recently used rebase.exe like this for Mypal 68: rebase -b 61D90000 freebl3.dll lgpllibs.dll libEGL.dll libGLESv2.dll mozavcodec.dll mozavutil.dll mozglue.dll nss3.dll nssckbi.dll nssdbm3.dll qipcap.dll softokn3.dll xul.dll Might rebase all while you're at it. Of course, one should lookup Memory tab of browser process' properties in Process Hacker to determine the free spot with sufficient space. libase.exe just uses DLL name to guess fittable spot without conflicting with other DLLs you rebased. I think its default config doesn't take into account the huge size of DLLs involved in this case.

    Yup. I did, but going from memory, I only brought it up once casually with both browsers, in context of Mypal, I think I mentioned it along with a workaround with applying IgnoreException shim for another issue with Compatibility Administrator. But no one else was curious about these things so it was forgotten. Time flies, must have been 3 or 4 years since when 360Chrome 13 was all the rage and people here were super excited to have a way to make it consume less RAM on XP!
  6. UCyborg
    I brought it up in the fist place in 360Chrome thread. Somehow long-term hardcore XP fans had no idea about it, but I, who had moved on from XP a long time ago, has. The irony. You're probably the odd one here considering that is super terrible compared to consequences during runtime.

    Might be some word in there that anti-spam on this forum doesn't like.

    I detect it on XP as well, though the delay is a bit shorter. My blind guess would be clicking taskbar button doesn't send only WM_MINIMIZE and browser has to process something else. That processing is slowed by larger number of tabs.
  9. UCyborg
    I don't know if this was already discussed anywhere, but at least with UXP browsers, I wonder why is browser minimized with delay if you do it via taskbar button while it's instantaneous via minimize button in the title bar.

    I'm too used to Windows' way of doing things and interest in Linux desktop kinda waned for me over time. Usually I would replace *buntu install with new version every 4 years. I still have version from 2020 and don't feel like upgrading and my Raspberry Pi 5 is just sitting in the closet.

    Same, the only difference I see from the copy of the site from January is the written theme name in the footer: IPS Theme by IPSFocus BTW, just added this to my stylesheet: li[data-role="group"] { display: none; } Now topic pages are like before when there was no extra text for group membership.

    Rule #1 of tech support: Never believe the customer until you have verified their claims. I have no way to verify so...GL HF?

    I checked non-legacy Thorium 117, which has nothing to do with Supermium, now also plain Google Chrome 128, they both render those parts grey. I also checked the archived version of the website on Wayback Machine from January, new Chrome renders it brighter, old Chrome renders it darker. Working great and reliably, going from experience from both home and workplace. Also, these two versions are only ones that were tested by Chromium devs and vetted by larger population. Anything Chromium past version 109 that runs on pre-Win10 is unofficial and is vetted by much smaller population.

    Meh, all I still feel at this place is alienation.

    Agreed, this website does not offer dark mode so this topic is irrelevant in terms of site issues related to dark mode. The duplicated text for member status though, yeah that's relevant. I do notice the difference in his screenshots if I compare Edge 94 with Thorium 117, both using that force dark mode for web content flag, old Edge is pure black, newer Thorium is like in his second screenshot. Working great and reliably, going from experience from both home and workplace.

    Thought I'd see some faster computers here. Mine really isn't all that fast. 4K video, MadVR, that puts really good load on it. I ran ls -all command through ADB shell to list one folder content on my Android smartphone while video was playing, the output was nice and slow then. Found another metric where there can be relatively large difference - pushing file to the phone, eg.: adb push some_larger_file.xyz /dev/null ADB version is important and of course Windows XP would be stuck with some ancient long obsolete version. There are probably numerous other factors at play and different phones and their software, but in my case, the computer is a bottleneck. I happened to have an old version from 2019 on my 10 install, it manages 4,7 MB/s. Upgrading ADB to the latest version speeds it up to 5,3 MB/s. Linux from 2020 with whatever version was in Ubuntu's repos then shows the rate of 6 MB/s. 2018 laptop at work running Windows 10 1809 pushes data at 11,5 MB/s!

    Much less brought up by someone from Europe, sLOVEnia, huh? It's such a disgusting violation, there's no escape from disruptive negative thoughts, no effective distraction. Thought I have processed it years ago, but eventually it returns. The madness is hard to put into words, from that this ancient blood ritual masquerades as medicine in modern times to that they don't even tell you anything was done and you only find out thanks to the internet (or some other way). To put it bluntly, ours was killed in a sick perverse manner. Then either disposed or, in the case of U.S., even sold to some pharmaceutical company. Anyway, the only known possible / partial remedy to get at least something back is the process of foreskin "restoration", basically inducing mitosis manually and/or with various devices to lengthen whatever tissue you have left to grow the replacement that emulates some functions of the original. It's a long process though, measured in years. While I'm not the guy to ask for inspiration in this regard, there are some online communities around the topic.

    I do sometimes when Pale Moon fails. Plain Firefox, none of the forks that are close to it, because they don't offer anything that would draw me to them. Except maybe Ablaze Floorp, GUI wise at least, though with how little I use Firefox in general, I haven't given it a long enough run to consider if it works better for me than Firefox with tweaks I have. I already use Windows 10, some of Google's services, a smartphone signed into Google account etc. so going out of my way for Firefox won't make much difference. I turn some obvious stuff off in about:config, similar with other software and that's about it. I only commented on one aspect in this thread I knew about, but otherwise, I got lost and don't really follow and am not the expert in these matters.

    Regarding slower initial load, I think it happens when high address is used, memory mapping at higher addresses is slower.

    But not everyone can afford a CORVETTE.

    Another website making playback of videos difficult. https://www.dw.com/en/rammstein-allegations-spotlight-concert-safety-for-women/a-65846744 Among the browsers at hand, only Thorium 117 plays it here. No idea about the actual required minimum versions.

    OK, but we'd need to see another link targeting @K4sum1's repo. And I'd be more comfortable running a local program that would count lines of code on the cloned repo, just in case, if we can't rely on GitHub itself to do the counting. I did try one in the past, but that was over a decade ago and on a much smaller codebase, a highschool project actually, a toy basically. In any case, throwing out 4 million lines of Rust code would not be a small feat I think. Ungoogled Chromium repo is just hosting patches to apply to Chromium's code and some utilities written in Python, but there's no code in there from which to build actual web browser.

    @Sampei.Nihira I can't see GitHub mentioning Rust even on Mozilla's repo, just Other. What page are we looking at? Wouldn't rewriting Rust code be rather complex task? I tried r3dfox several versions ago and noticed win32k lockdown is disabled for aesthetic reasons, using Windows' provided GUI elements instead of custom drawn ones. AFAIK, custom drawn ones are used for unified look across platforms and avoiding calls to win32k.sys on Windows to reduce potential attack surface.

    Because it's irrelevant since Vista and ASLR enabled executables are a thing. The OS always picks random base address for ASLR enabled executables and is smart about it to not duplicate it in memory across multiple processes that share the same executable binaries.
