I don't recall what the problem was with LNER. For GWR, the problem is script-related. My default config has the page "almost" working but 15 of 17 inline scripts are blocked. Enabling all 15 of the blocked scripts results in a page error. I suspect that the fix is relatively easy but it will likely either require Proxomitron to filter the incoming javascript before the web browser renders it OR maybe just blocking one or two or so of those 15 inline scripts via uMatrix/uBlock.

Latest Version of Software Running on XP
NotHereToPlayGames replied to pointertovoid's topic in Windows XP
In all versions of Windows, you can hold down the SHIFT key while pressing the DELETE key and that deletes the files without going to the Recycle Bin first. I've always HATED the "recycle bin", it forces us to delete everything TWICE. -
D.Draker - we are on the same page on this one, "personality conflicts" aside. Honestly, we really are. But as I read kar1's comments, I have to agree with him as well. There is a "fine line" and it is all "relative" (or is "subjective" a better word?) on just when and where that line is crossed. I am not trying to go off-topic and it is kind of all tied together. For one, the future of Chrome on Win7 is likely (I reiterate "likely", this is purely speculative) going to follow the lead of what the XP Crowd has been doing since Chrome abandoned XP. ie, one or two years behind. There is decompiling, recompiling, backporting, debug, dependency checks, trial-and-error, et cetera - "software doesn't write itself". Will that workflow "work" for the Win7 Crowd? Only time will tell. It is all "speculative" as soon as the word "future" enters the scene. There is also "intended audience" if this Future Chrome on Win7 is going to gain true traction. What I perceive a "car" to be in the future may very well differ from what you perceive a "car" to be in the future - it's all speculative... and subjective... Secondly, I propose that we have to view the previously-mentioned browser and in turn the previously-mentioned web site the same way we (MSFN) views Extended Kernels. I guarantee that Microsoft does not view an Extended Kernel in the same way that the end-consumer views an Extended Kernel. And unless I'm mistaken, even MSFN Forum Rules do not allow "links" to Extended Kernels (I could be wrong on this, this falls back on "intended audience" and I do not use Extended Kernels nor follow those MSFN Threads). But MSFN does allow us all to use the phrase "extended kernel" even though it may be indexed by search engines. You see how that "fine line" comes into play? Does the Future of Chrome on Win7 force the intended audience to utilize an Extended Kernel? Or will traction only be gained by giving in to the demands of the Vanilla Win7 Crowd and the Future of Chrome on Win7 not require an Extended Kernel? Only time will tell... And have a great day, my friend, and note that I strived to word this reply without triggering any "personality conflicts"

Not until Boston Legal came along and portrayed a character with Aspergers. The character (Jerry "Hands" Espenson) is played by actor Christian Clemenson. Dan Aykroyd, Daryl Hannah, Anthony Hopkins, and some doctors suggest Andy Warhol also all have Aspergers. Or more recently called Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

difference between different downloads Windows 10 LTSC 2021
NotHereToPlayGames replied to Cixert's topic in Windows 10
Perhaps this is of help -- https://iot.stackexchange.com/questions/2160/windows-10-iot-on-regular-pc -
Same here. Though minor and non-medicated. I am one of only a few here at work that has computer speakers, Pluto TV, streaming radio, and YouTube access because "background noise" keeps me 'focused'. So I guess I kind of have "exploited" the minor ADHD but my boss knows the difference in my efficiency when I do and do not have that "background noise". I've also been suggested via "medical advise" to drink Mountain Dew because caffiene kinda of has the opposite effect on me as it does most people.

Technically, no, you cannot! It does have a link to GitHub for a something called a "warez" as some sort of "warez". But it does not HOST whatever a "warez" is - GitHub is doing the hosting. Semantics, I guess. MSFN does not blanket-ban GitHub links, regardless of the wide array of content, legal or otherwise, hosted via GitHub. At any rate, I still advise the poster to learn from my mistake and remove the link to Thorium's main website.
-
That was my mistake. Other forum member(s) were asking about Thorium, I did a 10-second Google, and posted the link. I've never actually tried Thorium. I do not, never have, and never will condone the use of "warez".
-
I advise you to remove the main website link for Thorium. A moderator "pointed me" with a "permanent" point for posting that link in the past.

I am very thankful to see WiseVector StopX as abandoned. I tried this one a few months ago and was hit with at least half a dozen false positives. I do admit that my only method of verifying if a hit was positive or false positive was by using free online scanners and also uploading to my Google Drive account because it scans everything before re-downloading. I wonder if your guide/thread can include recommended/suggested "online scanners"? Not an extensive list, just some sort of "honorable mention" online scanner.

difference between different downloads Windows 10 LTSC 2021
NotHereToPlayGames replied to Cixert's topic in Windows 10
I spoke too soon in comparing LTSB 2016 to LTSC 2021. My 2016 is heavily tweaked and runs 29 versus 51 processes (76% increase), 288 versus 622 threads (116% increase), and 8766 versus 21581 handles (146% increase) that a temporary LTSC VM runs for testing purposes. 2016 on the left, 2021 on the right. A fairer comparison will be after heavily tweaking 2021. -

Altitude effects atmospheric pressure, atmospheric pressure effects the temperature at which water will boil. At an altitude of 2,895 meters, water will boil at 90° Celsius.

I'm proud of my CDO (alphabetical order, the way it should have been all along!). I've actually been told that I am "borderline Aspergers" during various social events, lol.

How to prepare for an EMP attack

I lost track of just what he has and what he's selling. He started the thread saying he's upgrading an AMD A8 6600k which is a very poor performing computer. Now he's selling an HP Pavillion TG-01 that's only a year old ??? Language Barrier, I have to assume, and it's this one-year-old Pavillion that he is BUYING, not selling to replace that poor-performing AMD A8 6600k.

That's roughly $295.51 USD. Amazes me that somebody would give that much for a year-old used desktop PC when $600 buys one "refurbished" or $820 buys one brand-spanking-new with TWICE the RAM. https://www.amazon.com/HP-Pavilion-TG01-DisplayPort-Bluetooth/dp/B0BR8LZJ5B/ref=asc_df_B0BR8LZJ5B/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=644617763239 If you have somebody paying that much for a USED desktop PC, take it and RUN, don't look back, "caveat emptor".

"Zero Day" viruses/malware are the bigger concerns. Perhaps it would be useful/beneficial for a report on how effective these programs are at catching "Zero Day" vulnerabilities *before* the next definition update - it's "easy" to catch them *after* a definition update.

NotHereToPlayGames replied to Cixert's topic in Windows 10
I'm afraid that I am not the one to ask regarding "security updates" - I never install security updates. I run a contract business and use the LTSB version strictly to avoid "security updates" breaking robot controllers, camera vision optical inspection equipment, et cetera. -

difference between different downloads Windows 10 LTSC 2021
NotHereToPlayGames replied to Cixert's topic in Windows 10
While it's not a night-and-day difference, every little bit helps when it comes to squeezing the turnip. I find 2021 LTSC to be slower than 2016 LTSB.
