  1. Technically, I'd put that at right around 20-80. 80% of the time, I'm on XP. 20% of the time, I'm on 10. And just like the UA is "dying", so is my XP and months (years?) down the road, that 20-80 will be 50-50. Then 80-20. Then 100-0.
  2. I hope you were not accusing me of burying my head in the sand If you are, hunt down 10 web sites that throws up a "you're browser is out of date" banner then change your UA to the latest-and-greatest - it's basically 50-50 at this point if the UA is enough to remove the nag-banner. So that's what I mean by "the UA is dying" - changing the UA four years ago would have removed that nag-banner on all 10, today it's 50-50, tomorrow it will be 0-for-10.
  3. The entire NASA websites (at least each-and-every part I just tried) works perfectly for me on 360Chrome v11 (four years old) with zero browser-out-of-date nag screens and zero Flash. Maybe what you need to be doing is REMOVING ALL forms of Flash from your computer and then websites won't even try to use it (it is old and ancient technology and is DEAD) and then those websites work via alternatives instead of Flash.
  4. I have personally not tried this (zero need for Flash) - but try this -- 1) Download and extract the most recent Russian "repack" from here - https://lrepacks.net/repaki-programm-dlya-interneta/182-360-extreme-explorer-amp-portable.html (the file name as of this writing will be "360_extreme_explorer_13.0.2290.0.zip") 2) Execute the "_Unpack Portable.cmd" file from the extracted "360_extreme_explorer_13.0.2290.0.zip" (Note: this will close any 360Chrome processs that you have open) 3) This will create a new folder called "360Chrome" in the same folder containing "_Unpack Portable.cmd" 4) Open that "360Chrome" folder and navigate to ..\360Chrome\Chrome\Application\components 5) Copy both the "ppflash" and the "npflash" folders from this "360Chrome" folder over to the same folder structure for the folder that contains your 360Chrome that you want to add Flash to 6) Now when you launch that folder's 360Chrome, you should have Flash
  5. There is Flash for 360Chrome but I'm out-of-state for the next several days and won't be able to assist until my return home.
  6. We've both stated our "view". It need not be discussed further. I will be making my Proxomitron "solution" PUBLIC, if Dixel wants to continue this "invite-only" distribution for his "project", no skin off my back.
  7. That's just ludicrous, plain and simple. Undo paranoia. "To each their own." Google doesn't care! Period! And to think otherwise is kind of a false ego on one's own "project".
  8. No offense. But until Dixel makes his "starter" PUBLIC and NOT by "invitation only", then I really don't give a rat's butt what it does! Again, "no offense". "To each their own."
  9. From the reading/research I've done thus far, if you have ever, in your entire life, solved a "captcha" (grid of pics where you select certain images) to access any web page, then your "fingerprint" is on file forever. Which kinda tells me it's "too late" for any of us to try to prevent our computer from being "fingerprinted", because it already has been fingerprinted. I still hope that us Proxomitron users can find a way to "fake" our 'fingerprint'.
  10. No need to. When I tried to create a new Yahoo account, it asks for a phone number. I do not own a phone. And it will not send an SMS to "temporary" SMS services. I personally never use email accounts that are tied to a "real" phone number! The three Yahoo accounts that I had to let "expire" were over TWENTY years old. Yahoo couldn't "trace" them to any "real" person! I have zero interest in opening a new Yahoo account where Yahoo knows "exactly" who I am! "Throw-away" accounts (Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc) should be completely anonymous in my view. None of the three "allow" that when creating "new" accounts. But my 20+ year old accounts ARE!
  11. I don't like the latest build, hate isn't even a strong enough word. I use version 3.8.1 from November 2011 and it works for everything except Yahoo and my three Yahoo accounts have been deactivated due to inactivity. Version 4.0 was released in August 2014 and I *hated* it enough to never look at a newer version since and I'm still running 3.8.1.
  12. No clue here. I had to throw away three Yahoo throw-away accounts because Yahoo would no longer let me access them through POP Peeper.
  13. Bingo! I've asked the "fake fingerprint" question over at TUOPF. I'm hoping that JJoe or amy might have some insight.
  14. I wonder how many trees we could save per year if my credit card statements and utility bills arrived with a BLANK return-payment envelope? Since I pay these ONLINE, the envelope gets thrown away because it has writing on it. Not just the return address, I could put a sticker of my address over that, but other text that makes the envelope useless for anything else.
  15. Um, what sane person in the universe thinks that "gaming" is the same thing as "active" ???
  16. Basically from what has been gathered thus far, these Cloudfare captcha's are being encountered because Proxomtron blocks several browser "fingerprints" and the Cloudfare servers don't know "who or what" we are so they force a captcha. So those of you that bend over backwards to prevent your browser's "fingerprint", visit one of those three web sites listed above - if you can access them without having to solve a "captcha", then you have not prevented your browser's "fingerprint" and that Cloudfare server basically knows "who" you are. Maybe not you out of 3 million. But they do have you narrowed down to a few thousand.
  17. Ouch! Sorry to hear that. Forgive the curiosity, but I'd be curious to know your "before and after" perceptions of covid/omicron. I've known roughly a dozen folks to have had covid and each and every one of them walked away thinking, "That wasn't bad at all, the media had me thinking it was going to kill me, it was nowhere near that." edit - Also know one person that did die from it. But she was diabetic and very unhealthy to begin with. Even her husband tells everyone she was knocking on Death's Door before her covid diagnosis.
  18. Very true. I'm assuming the heighth/depth to average itself out. It's 14" deep at the back door, the drift along the driveway is 31" at its peak, I have some areas as low as 5".
  19. Snow storm and I have some shoveling to do. I'm kinda guessing on some of the numbers because I never actually measured my driveway, but I know that my carport is 20 feet wide (I carried the lumber home from Menards, on foot!). So my driveway is roughly 19 feet wide. The length of my blue truck is 178.9 inches. I'm guessing three and a half of those will fit in my driveway bumper-to-bumper from the end of the carport. But I used 5 to account for area into the road, at mailbox, and sidewalk. That's 894.5 inches. Divide by 12 to get 74.5 feet. 74.5 feet long multiplied by 19 feet wide gives me 1415.5 square feet. Divide by 60 because I cleared roughly 60 square feet at the back door and timed that at 21 minutes. That's 23.6. Multiply by 21 because I cleared those 60 square feet in 21 minutes. That's 495.6. Divide by 60 to convert minutes to hours. That's 8.26 hours. LONG day of shoveling ahead of me
  20. You can temporarilty change the UA this way - If you want a "permanent" solution, you will need to experiment with extensions. I personally do not bother with UA because the "modern" web does not use them and the UA is "dying" - Firefox removed site-specific UA override in version 71 (December 2019) and Chrome intends to phase it out completely.
  21. When you first open 360Chrome, hit the F12 keyboard key then hit the F1 keyboard key. Then select the second option in the very first dropdown - that's how you revert it back to English. This is only a flaw in v13.5 (and newer v13's), none of the versions older than v13 build 2206 do this.
  22. Are you using @Humming Owl release? It shouldn't be in Chinese if you are. I also have English releases in a different thread. I suggest trying both.
  23. Same here! FF (I should say official Pale Moon, I've actually never liked/used official Firefox) stopped working for me close to a year and a half ago! And each and every one of Roytam's "updates" has made it WORSE (for me, mileage may vary). So I'm waiting very patiently for @feodor2 to release Mypal "2.0". I personally do not want my "browser" remembering passwords and I use this extension instead (I use the older version 9.6.6, unsure what has been added since as they are now at 10.0.10 [not interested, I'll keep the OLD]) - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/autofill/nlmmgnhgdeffjkdckmikfpnddkbbfkkk
  24. Some web sites PREVENT saved passwords. Are you not able to save any passwords whatsoever or only not able to on a few web sites? Because if only on a few, then I suspect those web sites are using tricks that PREVENT saved passwords.
