    I don't have a Facebook account. Does the error console provide any clues?
  2. NotHereToPlayGames
    I'm 37 degrees Celsius everywhere I go. Indoors. Outdoors. Traveling. Everywhere.

    I'm on Win10. Both here at home and at work. Work would be a much newer version of Win10. Work is also Pro and not Enterprise. I'm actually "backwards" and use Enterprise at HOME versus at work.

    Perhaps it's your ISP? I cannot find a QUIC connection anywhere, at home or at work. I've done nothing to disable QUIC in the test profile.
  5. NotHereToPlayGames
    My test above was without any login.
  6. NotHereToPlayGames
    I'm unsure if QUIC is being disabled at the "IT Level" as that test was from at work. I do know that I don't have it disabled at the "browser level", at least not here at work.

    Cannot replicate here in the US. At least not in Ungoogled Chromium v114.

    I do agree, unsafe, not for me. Don't care if it's Google QUIC or non-Google QUIC - neither is for me. But no, I did not vote, nor plan to. Some topics seem to only exist for the sake of Provocateur Extraordinaire - this one has already unfolded as such so I'll leave it to "you two" to duke it out, "not for me".

    I'm not quite understanding the underlying hostility? The voting is 100% (at time of post) "I don't, and not going to. I think it's unsafe." so doesn't that tell us that you have both voted the same exact "it's unsafe"?

    Mileage may vary, but I've only ever had a "noticeable" difference between these so-called "power plans" when on a laptop and NO DIFFERENCE when on a desktop. Again, "mileage may vary". And I had to really benchmark the far corners of the universe to even "see" the difference on a laptop. My laptops are i5's and i7's so I cannot say this un-noticeable "improvement" is true for i3's or not. I'm also HUGE into quantifiable measurements, a power plan "placebo effect" is nil to none for me, I seek quantifiable measurements. edit - oops, the title does specifically state that this IS on a LAPTOP my point remains, seek an actual "performance metric" that you can physically MEASURE, repeatedly, don't go by some "gut feeling" PLACEBO EFFECT. "I painted my space bar with Lightning McQueen Red nail polish. My computer has never run any faster!"

    The "normal" one. The ia32 and the sse are for very old CPUs and the i3 is quite "new" compared to what they are intended for. To illustrate, look at the "Features" section at the bottom of this page -- https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/core-i3-4160.c1767

    You have 245! processes running. Of course it's SLOW with that much chugging in the background. My home computers (Win10) only have 60-some processes running and that's with some non-OS stuff. Here at work, I am over 200 processes but this is a top-of-the-line-at-the-time corporate machine with 32GB RAM and 16 cores with five Chrome's open with multiple tabs each, one Edge open for SharePoint, three Excel spreadsheets open, and one PowerPoint open.

    It's all about mobile phones / tablets versus traditional desktops / laptops. And Microsoft / Android / Chrome all have an AUTOMOTIVE presence nowadays.

    Never heard of it. Though they have clearly been around for a while. Had to look it up, I've visited California but still have never heard of it.
  16. NotHereToPlayGames
    AGREED!

    My NM27, NM28, Mypal27, and St52 are all the same exact size as far as my "webappsstore.sqlite" --

    I've used over three dozen different Linux versions over the past two decades. NONE of them will EVER dethrone Microsoft. It's a pipe dream to think otherwise. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pipe_dream

    Tempted to report that as SPAM.

    You're Killin' Me, Smalls. Supermium is too bright. 360Chrome is too bright. MyPal 68 is too bright. PotPlayer is too bright. MPC-HC is too bright. I could go on. All of these are too bright and you've said so yourself right here at MSFN. Sorry, but yeah, one HAS TO LAUGH whenever you say something is "too bright".

    Exact opposite for me, I don't recall ever having a GOOD experience at a theater. Always TOO D@MN LOUD !!! And this comes from a guy who has a car with three 15" Rockford Fosgate's with reinforced body panels so that the car doesn't rattle. Put a quarter on the roof and the bass will send it flying.
  22. NotHereToPlayGames
    Mind showing us a picture of the difference?

    I am NOT familiar with "Dune" (I've heard of it but have ZERO familiarity/insight). Regarding the part I've bolded, "emotional connection" is ONE (of MANY) reasons I do not watch movies! I hate hate HATE watching actors/actresses do "fake tears" and I immediately stop watching no matter what when actors/actresses do these STUPID "fake tears". Look up "The Flash" on Netflix. HATE IT! HATE IT! HATE IT! Because the "superhero" is always always ALWAYS crying like a BABY!
  24. NotHereToPlayGames
    I've only been to a theater twice in the last 20 years. And I had to walk out to the car for my work-use noice-cancelling headphone hearing protection for both of those visits!

    My birthday is two days away from Christmas - I stopped celebrating my birthday at 14 because of it. My sister's birthday is on St. Patrick's Day - she started celebrating her birthday at 21 and has been an alcoholic burden to society ever since.
