    I have been unable to replicate this in my "regular" as-is v13.5. If it doesn't exist in "regular", there's no way for it to exist in "ungoogled".

    None of 360Chrome (not the official Chinese, not the Russian Repack, not my rebuild, not Humming Owl's rebuils) is compatible with Chrome Web Store themes.

    The above is a quote from @Dave-H in a different thread. I would like to ask for Ad Revenue to be made public if this web site is now going to have constant "banners" requesting members to "donate". I seek not to overstep my bounds and will cease-and-decist at request. I just think that the constant "banners" is a bit over-the-top and we-the-members herein should have a better "overall picture" of "costs" we are being asked to cover. Again, I am not seeking to overstep my bounds, I have been here since December 2019, making me relatively "new" here. But the question begs to be asked - if we-the-members fully and wholly cover the "costs", then we should also consider REMOVING the "ads" - ALL of them. Just thinking out loud...

    I'm unsure how "honest" we are supposed to be. The topic of "donations" have been front-and-center as of late. I sincerely hope we-the-members do not become "at risk" of being banned simply on grounds of discussing said "donations". Against that "backdrop", I have never, in my entire life, "donated" to a web site. That does not imply that I never will. I DO have a small list of political and religious affiliations that I DO "donate" towards. But I generally call them "contributions", not "donations". I cannot, in good faith, "donate" towards a "technical" web site with political rants running amok. That's just me. But perhaps other "silent" members as well. That said, we-the-members should have a full account of "expenses" and of "advertising income" if we are going to have banner after banner requesting we "donate".

    Hmm, interesting. I'll see if I can replicate (I've never personally trusted anything higher than v13 build 2206, to be honest). Do you still see this first-tab connection if all extensions are disabled?
  6. NotHereToPlayGames
    Noted, might be a few weeks before I can did into it and see if I can find the culprit.

    I have registered over there as ArcticFoxie and will include my builds over there also. Time will tell if MSFN is truly shutting down (WinCert had one of these shut-down scares in 2017, RyanVM had one in 2019 - both are still here).
  8. NotHereToPlayGames
    I can't speak for MSFN specifically, but I've moderatored forums in the past and the Donations "progress bar" was quarterly.

    I personally hold the view that we've already had WW3, WW4, and WW5 and this would be WW6.

    Same here. I've even had folks follow me into a parking lot to "say their piece". I just calmly reply, "Green means Go. Green does not mean Gun It." You have to be careful, they clearly have "road rage" if they followed you into a parking lot. So it's in the "delivery" that I can get them to CHUCKLE and admit that Green means Go.
  11. NotHereToPlayGames
    No plans as of yet. I don't know what "soon" means as far as the MSFN closure (or if it's even 100% as of this point). Maybe users need to start posting links to other forums where we can continue into the future as folks of (mostly) common interests? I haven't dug too deep into this. I personally feel that New Moon and Serpent are "dying" (I say this as a supporting fan with continued hopes toward the contrary). It's not like Dropbox is some never-heard-of web site - I use it for "business" and reserve my Google Drive for "personal". Dropbox doesn't require users to be "members" to download, you can download without a username/password. The notion that Dropbox doesn't work in New Moon and Serpent only reinforces my own belief that they are "dying" (if not already on life support).

    Ditto to all Truly a unique place here and I've only been here a little over two years, where does all the time go.
  14. NotHereToPlayGames
    Did not see that until just now. Bummer

    Precisely my point. We here in the States are SPOILED ROTTEN BRATS when it comes to gasoline prices. We tend to drive the MOST and make dozens of WASTEFUL trips instead of planning our trips for "efficient conservation". Yet we tend to pay the LEAST for gasoline compared to other countries. Nope. Here in the US, diesel is more regulated than standard fuel due to trucking industry (I've always been told this, I've never researched it). It was only 5 or so years ago where diesel was never higher than standard as far as price per gallon. People used to always buy cheap diesel cars when global oil prices were high and gas prices were high as a result. Then ethanol mandates hit the scene and now standard always costs much less than diesel. But my main point is that it doesn't matter if you drive an SUV, a jet plain, a Prius, or a moped/scooter, it is the DISTANCE that you travel and NOT the "mpg" of your vehicle!

    Are you running as-is or did you make any changes to the 360Loader.ini file ? If you made any change(s), however slight, please let me know what change(s) you made. If you are running as-is, have you ran any other version of 360Chrome other than mine? Mine is the ony version that strives to be "portable" and not retain settings in the Windows Registry. So if you have used any other version (does not matter if v9, v11, v12, v13, or v13.5) by any other distribution, then you should remove their Windows Registry settings. To test if you have other 360Chrome settings stored in the Windows Registry, try this while 360Chrome is not running (wouldn't hurt to verify via Task Manager). Download and extract RegScanner from here -- https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/regscanner.html Run RegScanner and do a search for 360Chrome - you should not find more than roughly a dozen operating system MUI and compatibility keys. If you find anything other than MUI and compatibility keys, then you should delete all of them and run my build as-is and see if everything works now. I would suggest downloading again and running as-is and not using the profile you already know did not work as-is. Yes. Export as html file. Import as html file.

    I did see you post over at TUOPF requesting version 1.1 and 1.2 but I could not find them in my archives. Didn't hunt for 1.3a because I saw the post over at TUOPF first.

    I don't think they will, not "soon". National average gas price per gallon here in the States is currently $3.66 with inflation concerns already front-burner for many economists. I think too many countries are concerned with oil prices skyrocketing if they intervene. I've personally always been an "advocate" for $5 per gallon gas prices - to curb wasteful consumerism, far too many people drive to six different grocery stores in a three-day period instead of actively maintaining a grocery list and manageing their pantry for one grocery store run every 12 to 14 days instead of twenty four trips in 12 to 14 days. I do not think $5 per gallon gas would "hurt" our economy, not if people stopped making 3 to 4 times the number of grocery store trips then they really need to be making. My last 19-gallon fill-up lasted me three months! My neighbor fills up her Toyota Prius every four days! And she has the nerve to look down her nose at me for driving an SUV! Some people really don't know how to see the "bigger picture".

    Agreed!

    I have 7+ computers and all run XP. I have never bumped into what is being described either. However, and only one one of my computers (XP x86 on a 1.8 GHz Sempron 3100+ with 2.0 GB RAM), I have noticed where one (and only one) website would take roughly 40 seconds before timing out with a cannot connect error. I would have to wait for the cannot connect error then switch from WebKit to IE kernel where it would connect. After the IE kernel connected, I would then switch back to the WebKit kernel and it would connect this time. I had to do that for something like two weeks and then it finally started working on its own. The best I could tell at the time was that it was server-related and not something on my system.

    Guess I'm at a loss. I don't have much experience with the Humming Owl releases since I have my own releases. (I applaud the Humming Owl releases, but I throw a shoe at the screen every time I see a "nag screen" when I try a Humming Owl release.) I would reiterate to DISABLE any-and-all 360Chrome settings that claim to improve speed and reiterate to DISABLE any-and-all "list-based" extensions. Do you observe this initial delay if your very first web browser visit is in an incognito window?
  24. NotHereToPlayGames
    Have you tried a couple different DNS Servers so as to rule out DNS? Also, disable (at least temporarily) any anti-virus or "ad-blockers" or "list-based" extensions so as to rule them out.

    Launch with this startup command flag -->> --disable-background-networking
