UCyborg

I eventually picked up the habit of cruising at 110 km/h rather than 130 km/h on the motorway and that reduced the fuel consumption to little over 5.7 l/100km on that model. That 4.5 l/100km figure is on the current 2022 model, after recently experimenting with cruising in 90 - 100 km/h range. Slower indeed gets you further. Some time ago I stumbled upon this comment on YouTube, forgot which video: That, I haven't experimented with. Those that encounter me on the road must already think I'm insane as it is. But, I get to listen to the music longer!

The download page still says Windows Vista - Windows 11 for current version 5.11.2427. Is that an error? Missing APIs?

Steam will no longer be supported on Windows 7 and 8.x with January 2024.

Doesn't bother me TBH. I guess I don't find much on forums that would make OS particularly better for me, besides the usual software. I've spent most of the time putting together compatible theme with Windows 7 aesthetics.

Got any particular forum in mind?

Which must be the consequence of not driving as much. I refill on average at 23-day intervals. The best fuel economy I've managed is 4.5 l/100km (52.27 mpg). So I also beat your neighbor with my less fuel-efficient car. Though it can't be fair comparison since we don't have all the data laid out.

Works here on official Pale Moon 32.1.0. I suspect you're blocking some resources of that website. Ze or addThis, they don't sound like a built-in JavaScript object, though I don't find them via debugger either. There's a code in there that's supposed to set windowWidth variable.

I've actually had some form of Linux, mostly Ubuntu, ready besides Windows for several years now, though I only use it occasionally. That issue from last time, well, I've got bit nervous and had to vent. TBH, those weird Windows issues have been rare in recent years. I don't know what happened, but it seems problem isn't even on the computer with the printer as I assumed, but Word from another computer is unable to send document to the shared printer, though I can print from the third computer to the same shared printer. Didn't try printing from Word on that third computer, but printing PDFs from web browser works at least. I don't recall the exact message, I think it was something about the printer setup. I haven't got around checking if other programs on that computer can print, but Windows sees the printer normally. I remember the weirdness with HP Deskjet 3550 that caused the printer to always try to also use color cartridge despite having set to print in greyscale and I think you could also select that you only have black cartridge, but no budge, it always wanted to use empty or non-existent color cartridge, so normal black-white stuff didn't print OK on Windows, but there was no issue on Linux. Newer HP from series 2600 is better, though you at least have to make sure to remove empty color cartridge, otherwise, it may still try to use it.

Looks like there might be another revision of European vehicle emissions standards - Euro 7.

I have to say though, all those things you get used to using one particular OS family for so long, you don't think about it 'till you try something else. Then you realize all those things you take for granted from how file manager, task manager works/looks/feels to how mouse and desktop compositor feels. Might depend on individual, but I'll just stick to the best OS for a particular task, as always have.

Not by profession actually, it was just a casual hobby so far. Schools I attended did give a very superficial overlook of coding in C#, but things I did for me required other languages.

The only reason rebasing wasn't done in this case IMHO is because real pros have long moved on from XP focused development.

I really hate these games. Maybe this world would be salvageable if others were like that. But there would have to be zero exceptions and that'll never happen. No matter how many good people you put together (if there is such a thing), it takes one awful person to ruin it all.

My thoughts are that I visit so few websites and whatever they get from my browser, what will they do with it? They must know I'm a hopeless case and they can't sell me anything.

I was up late with my mind wandering. Got curious if latest VCDS version 23.3.0 would install and launch, so: Status reads Questionable since the HEX-V2 interface wasn't connected to the car, I'd have to either carry this computer to the garage or get XP running on the laptop to see if it actually talks to the car. One would assume it should since it's the interface that does the talking and the program apparently can talk to the interface. But the software is no longer supported and tested on Vista/XP/2000, so if something doesn't work, it won't be fixed.

I guess I'm more patient than most folks. Max number of tabs I usually open is 10 - 15. Single-process mode is guaranteed to work with all XUL extensions one may want to use. I'm mostly concerned about speed/performance when it comes to multimedia.

It's assumed that the browser supports CSS revert keyword. This problem alone can be worked-around by the following user style (using eg. Stylus extension): @-moz-document domain("winraid.level1techs.com") { html { overflow-y: unset !important; } }

You got the legitimate answer though, the system requirements for their browser is clearly stated on their website. Another person pointed you to the thread here, which you must have been aware of, being a member here, but the official last XP compatible is simply the one that's several years old by now. I've got attacked there once by the guy called gepus for simply asking about the issue that may happen with uBlock Origin + blocking scripts on the site being navigated to from Google search results - you may be redirected back to search results if you have JS enabled on Google. Had to find a workaround on my own, which isn't too bad, don't need Google's tracking in the links, but nobody explained why the issue happens on Pale Moon. Is it really not a browser issue? I sometimes ask about some sites' issues, except the few incidents, the place doesn't seem as bad these days. If they know what's up, you tend to get the answer. When they were beefing up their RegExp code in recent times, I asked about a particular regex example that wasn't working as it used to anymore and it was fixed right away. One thing I'm still curious about, but there were only crickets' sounds on Pale Moon forum, why are Volkswagen's websites so sluggish? Some examples: https://www.volkswagen.si/ https://www.volkswagen.co.uk/en.html https://www.volkswagen.de/de.html The errors look about the same between UXP powered browser and Firefox 110, even polyfills loaded message appear in both cases. Well, almost, this may be encountered on UXP: SyntaxError: missing : after property id Which must result in something being broken (some popup in this case at least, maybe also something else), but I don't remember if we figured out this one yet.

This thread sure has a lot of activity. Can't say I can tell from the texts here what makes folks use particular anti-virus. And what does it gain them, I mean, are you encountering viruses on the regular basis? I really don't know, it's been over a decade since I used an anti-virus. Back then it was mostly ESET NOD32 or ESET SmartSecurity. But I was mostly fighting with the anti-virus which liked to prevent certain legitimate executables from running. Besides being bitten by a virus once which was planted on the ClassicShell's official download source (place was hacked into) and which wasn't difficult to recover from, it just overwrote MBR and was supposed to show the message about being pwned when OS was supposed to boot, that part failed on my system and there was just a spade character. I could've avoided running it if I paid attention to the fact that the installer for this software was normally digitally signed. But using signed and unsigned stuff, this just didn't cross my mind back then. Early years after XP release, getting internet connection for the first time, those times were stranger, there was one shared computer at home (who knows what others were clicking), Internet Explorer 6 was used at first and also I was much younger, so can't really say much about back then, I just remember computer had to be formatted in few days after getting the internet connection for the first time.

Reading the wiki page of Debian, I came across Librem 5 and PinePhone. Basically running mainline Linux distro adapted for mobile phones, so quite different from Android smartphones.

Do we want to know?

If I read right in the local magazine a while back, experts are predicting about 90% of content on the internet will be fake AI generated content. How...bleak.

Never installed it!

Chromium-based?

Sure Mozilla is pretending to be good while it's scum like everyone else. But Firefox's codebase is still distinct from Chrome's, maybe they took some bits from Chrome, one would have to dig into the tree, at least I remember someone from Moonchild Productions saying they adapted RegExp parser from Chromium or something along those lines. Some parts are written Rust, it still has interface hackable through CSS editing (AND YOU CAN MOVE THE FREAKING EXTENSION BUTTONS ON WHATEVER SIDE YOU WANT AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE ALL CRAMMED IN ONE PLACE), some classic extensions are still loadable with some adaptations (eg. Tab Mix Plus, also DownThemAll! and some others), there are differences under the hood when it comes to coding web extensions, it doesn't perform like Chrome on benchmarks. There are more, but these are the ones I'm personally most aware about.
