Yes, some are even excited because it looks different. Of course, these same folks think that options that used to be there are useless and nobody needs them.

YouTube Vanced developers received cease and desist letter from Google, so it's officially gone. Just noticed yesterday as I still have an older version that isn't functional anymore.

I miss the times when I still had energy to play games, now it feels like a chore. There's some newer titles that I'd definitely like to play, like Amnesia: Rebirth and Terminator: Resistance. I like event sounds and was recently changing my settings on Windows 10 to have more events play a sound. I also used CHORD.WAV from Windows 98. Modern versions have tweaked chord.wav, but I like the original Windows 98 version the most.

I'll say, "No, it doesn't mean anything of significance." Just tried PM30 and it is a radical update in some aspects. Tab Mix Plus does not function correctly anymore. Edit: Great, Tab Mix Plus was actually hastily updated (https://bitbucket.org/onemen/tabmixplus/downloads/). There's no difference between the two 0.5.8.2 versions (same checksum).

Does anyone here understand how are you supposed to use this? GitHub works, but what about other random sites requiring customElements? I still get the same old error about being undefined. Are you supposed to modify the extension itself to add rules?? I thought this was supposed to work generally, surely description says "Inject Polyfills for various web technologies into pages requiring them".

I picked up the belief from certain circles that depression is just the normal reaction to the way things are. Somehow you're supposed handle it 'cause you can't change the world anyway, but you may control your response. And changing yourself, even if it is actually for your own wellbeing, isn't an easy feat neither. I ended up dealing with people for the living. *Studies computers, gets people* The irony. Still in the IT field, though. People can't be bothered to read a several hundred pages manual or using CTRL + F to find what they need. And some just expect things to happen according to their will without any of their input. In private life, I have kept in touch with a friend from high school, though we don't communicate as much as in the past. I also noticed guys tend to find girlfriends and then they're suddenly "busy" with them.

Yes, it was nasty. I'm all for political incorrectness and do agree with certain controversial (to some) points they made in the past, but his attitude belongs nowhere.

i totally agree. The degree of cruelty and hatred being displayed toward Ukraine, especially toward the poor citizens of Mariupol, is absolutely appalling and disgusting. Really? Must have missed it since I tend to avoid nasty places. From what little I picked up, the response from the folks of my country towards the whole situation was quite charitable. I did notice however that on one major news site here, comments were recently disabled on all articles reporting on situation in Ukraine. Must have gone too nasty. I did notice some special snowlflakes there in the past.

Good to hear of your experiences with Fairphone and e/OS @TrevMUN. It's the direction I'm leaning towards when my current one decides to crap out. It runs unofficial LineageOS port compiled by some kind soul over at XDA. It's a bit rough around the edges, ART cache consumes way too much storage space and video playback tends to induce massive memory leaks over time on the kernel side, requiring a reboot.

This discussion finally prompted me to check how's signal coverage in my country. WOW, we have everything from 2G to 5G. My carier states: 5G: 37,5% 4G+/LTE-Advanced: 97,62% 4G/LTE: 99% UMTS (3G): 99,75% GSM (2G): 99,32% With a disclaimer to leave space for some leeway as these are apparently computed. Checked my 8 years old phone as well, it does LTE 4G max.

Musical anhedonia is another interesting one. Was positive I had it in my childhood/teen years. Though I realized by late teen years I do actually appreciate music in the context of movies and computer games. Regular music also at later point, but nowhere near the quantity as some other folks, who seem to be finding new stuff they like all the time. If someone asks, I say I'm not much of a music person 'cause I've no idea how that conversation is supposed to go. I was also wondering how would you call "having to use toilet every 15 min when you drive". That was the major problem after getting my driver's license and before in a lesser extent during driving lessons as well, each session lasting about 2 hours with a break at the half, which of course had to be used to take a leak as the bladder was almost full each time. Two times it happened that I couldn't make it home before I had to use the toilet again. First time was horrible as I was on "return journey" and there was no place to stop before reaching the destination. Thought it was going to explode. Awful 10 minutes. At the final destination, I went to the toilet in the nearest bar. Second time there was the bus stop on the way with some handy vegetation nearby. It's weird because there wasn't any conscious fear of driving. I only remember a mild shock going from the modern Toyota Yaris at the school to the old rusty VW Polo, which I got used to soon. The bladder problem took over a year to subside. Saw an ad about Eurojackpot recently that there's a draw two times a week now and the maximum jackpot has been increased to 120 million Euros. Holy macaroni, what a load of money.

Didn't think I'd read something like this on VOGONS. https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=86945

I think you have to follow the thread, otherwise you only get a notification when someone quotes or mentions you. On topic, modern DRM doesn't work on XP, in this case Widevine CDM specifically. The information on that site is outdated, it doesn't work on newer OS with older browsers such as Firefox 47 neither. You need both the browser that supports current Widevine version and an OS that can support both the browser and the Widevine - that's an additional executable plugged into the browser.

I recently updated my user style for MSFN to undo @InterLinked's black background of code sections as well. .ipsQuote, .ipsCode { background: unset !important; }

Yes, doesn't look like there's a lot of webcompat related changes yet. I hardly need benchmarks to tell it leans towards the slower side. But these browsers are more about the ability to support specific extensions to me. I'm lost without Tab Mix Plus and ColorfulTabs in other browsers. Slim and light browser cannot possibly handle the complexities of modern web. Assume the worst. I hate to break it to you folks, but this is war and he could be dead already. Or he comes back disabled, with a PTSD and so on.

I don't think Proxomitron by itself has the necessary logic behind it.

I put the code of the problematic file of the problematic web app at work in https://babeljs.io/repl and got the modified code, which I saved on the server side and sure enough after reloading it in the browser, it was suddenly compatible once again! If I remove ", not ie 11, not ie_mob 11" from the TARGETS field, then I get the code that also works in Internet Explorer 11. You'd need to have something like that locally which would process the code before it was handed to browser's JS interpreter.

Actually figured I still like Firefox better...think I'll reserve ChrEdge for sites wanting Chromium exclusive bells and whistles... Does it mean anything of significance in practice? Seems they shuffled things around and gave it a new name.

I also miss normal settings for coloring window captions depending on window state. I guess it works if you dig out classic theme, which is really a raw shell buried underneath, but DWM normally doesn't care about those. Maybe only active color, and even then it may not work all the time since it switches between two colors depending on the brightness of the accent color and you only have control over one AFAIK (or maybe I just didn't find it). Another lame File Explorer degradation got to be the omission of showing image thumbnails on the icon of the folder containing images. There's no proper fix for that. XP's Explorer has no problem showing 4 of those. It's horror show without that IMO. I tested that thing on a virtual machine and encountered weird glitch with my favorite settings combination that the author cannot reproduce (https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/discussions/895). I think I'll worry about Windows 11 if it gets some killer new feature I'd be interested in or some application requires it. Given my simpler needs, I guess I'm good for a while.

Can't say I notice any difference during normal browsing. Some writeup on texture uploads related to zero-copy rasterizer. Perhaps it's more relevant for Intel CPUs with onboard GPU. This might be another hint that it might be completely irrelevant on Windows.

The scheduled task still runs daily, but the service it invokes was already running, so it returned with code 0x420. This happened at 17:33. Noticed another funny thing, the Date and Time dialog shows the last successfuly sync at 16:23, which is one hour before system resumed from hibernation, when the system was off. Looking around, it seems likely that in this instance, the message refers to the event of system time being synchronized with CMOS clock rather than NTP server and showing time in UTC, like the relevant event message. I have RealTimeIsUniversal setting enabled so CMOS clock is interpreted as UTC rather than local time.

Part of Web Components, which UXP browsers don't support (fully). Partial implementation may be enabled by enabling dom.webcomponents.enabled on about:config page. Besides hoping it works by enabling the pref above (low chance)? I don't know, learn to program, help the upstream (Moonchild Productions) implement Web Components?

It's OK now.
