My Browser Builds (Part 4)

MSFN's reply-box does not allow HTTP image links. So I added the "s" to httpS when posting. -
My Browser Builds (Part 4)
NotHereToPlayGames replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Thanks for the reminder! I've been intending to test my "must-have" web sites (bank accounts and bill payment accounts) against the Christmas Releases. Refresh me memory - which releases have this implementation? I'm assuming only NM28, St52, and St55 ??? -
Why would they? I don't follow this thread closely, but from what I did see, he was kind of "baited" into a "reaction" versus an "action".

AGREED! We should not become a community where we start labeling any-and-all "Googlisms" as a step "backward". -
Me too. Plus a window that looks like an Internet Explorer "e".

Kinda hate the word "Googlism", but anywhoo... I am curious as to just what is the next "Googlism"? And what version of Chrome/Chromium did it make its debut? -
This one is definitely faster. Pulled more keys also (11 in total, but 5 were identical but stored in diffent places, 2 more were identical in different places, another 2 were identical in different places), but I cancelled License Crawler after a couple of minutes (at which point it had only found the one key). This one also revealed which was the BIOS key. I suspect License Crawler would have found them all also, if I were patient enough to wait for the whole scan.

Excellent, will try that one also. Checks-and-Balance. Both "should" give me the same exact MS Key and that will be a nice "warm fuzzy" before doing a full install.

This freebie laptop has close to two hundred Metro App "kiddie games". This tutorial was a godsend - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7g_8S3GngA

Awesome! Thanks, that worked!

BINGO! Seemed pretty obvious to me. Moving on...

I also once had a dental hygienist cleaning my teeth ask my why I kept slouching way over to the opposite side of the chair. And paused for a second and told her flatout, "Because you keep hitting me with your boobs and that makes me uncomfortable."

I do *not* define myself as homophobic. I do believe in "live and let live" and do not condone "indoctrinization" by either side. I am a "centrist" and do not support "exremism" of any flavor. That said, I get my haircut at a beauty college because it's cheap and I get it cut about every two weeks. The beauty college teaches guys and girls. I always have to tell any new receptionist that schedules my haircut to NOT schedule with a boy! I always use a sarcastic voice and tell him/her, "I don't know if this is homophobic or sexist, but I am not comfortable getting my hair cut by a boy, it has to be a girl please."

I was given a freebie laptop with Windows 8.1. It's a Lenovo Ultrabook with an Intel i5 and only 4GB RAM. It does have a restore "partition". I was able to get it to "usable" (it only has a 1.5 GHz CPU) mainly by axing Trend Micro and remnants of McAfee. This is my FOURTH "freebie" all an account of previous owners disatisfied with "speed" and all on account of anti-virus programs slowing them down! My question is this - the sticker on the bottom with the MS Key is worn and faded and unreadable. Are there any software programs to retrieve my MS Key so I could reinstall without using the restore "partition"?

I see a 2/4, a 2/11, and a 2/18. But no 2/9. -
I guess I don't see what "doesn't work" because I use these three quite often. I don't have ACCOUNTS on any of the three, but all three seem to work for no-account-required activities. Which could bring us to SSL/TLS login issues as opposed to actual rendering engine? SSL/TLS login issues can be resolved with local proxy programs and are not generally the fault of the rendering engine itself.

Nobody has yet to step forward with any example web sites that work in newer versions but do not work in 86. One member sites his gym membership but no screencaps or URLs for anybody else to verify. I'd love to have a public list! But again, nobody has yet to step forward with any example web sites. A public list of URLs that stop working at version 86, 87, 101, 103, 105, 110, 112, you name it, would be a rather valuable resource. But again, and not to beat a dead horse, but nobody has yet to step forward with VERIFIABLE examples. Instead, all we get is a few members constantly citing that 86 is a bit old. Until we have a verifiable list of URLs for other members to be able to witness 86 being a bit old, then none of us that use 86 will sway from 86. Kind of not too difficult a concept to grasp.

Though as I say that out loud, I do see that post number one was last edited on October 9, 2022.

Which makes me seriously ponder just how informative or useful a thread like this is. If you weren't reading a week at a time in 2016 when the thread started, just how many people are going to read 76 pages before posting? Aren't these types of threads intended more for the person that was here in 2016 and monitored it ever since? And not for anybody that stumbles upon it only to be asked to read just under SEVEN YEARS of posts before they get slapped in the face with a "already listed"?
