    (offtopic) In at least one country Windows XP is still the dominant OS according to Statcounter: Armenia.

    No idea. I'm not a coder myself. I guess you'll have to ask @cmalex (he announced the Python 3.9 build in this post). Though he hasn't posted on this forum since August 13, 2023... When he was asked to provide a list of the options used when compiling his custom Python 3.8.1350, this was his answer: Patch.diff (Py3.8)

    FYI, The yt-dlp maintainers will drop support for Python 3.8 after October 2024. My build is done with Python 3.9, so it will also work on Windows 7 and above. When Python 3.9 will reach end of life in October 2025 and yt-dlp maintainers will also drop support for it, I will no longer be able to provide builds for Windows XP... (unless @cmalex or someone else manages to compile a higher Python XP compatible build )

    Good idea. Thanks! I will implement it in the next build. In 'version.py' I put: UPDATE_HINT = 'Do not update the XP build with -U. Instead download from GitHub Releases again when a new version is available.' Tested it and it works: C:\WINDOWS\system32>yt-dlp -U Current version: local@2024.06.01 Latest version: master@2024.06.01.185743 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp-master-builds ERROR: Do not update the XP build with -U. Instead download from GitHub Releases again when a new version is available. C:\WINDOWS\system32> BTW, welcome to the forum.

    Go to Tools ---> Preferences ---> Tabs Uncheck "Close the window when the last tab is closed". @AstroSkipper said: Yes, that also works.

    I believe uBlock Origin is a supported add-on on Firefox for Android. Then you can enable "AdGuard URL Tracking Protection" and optionally "Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool" (link).

    De-googled link without tracking. Can't you just play the video through MPC-HC with hardware acceleration (use Open With extension). From the release notes of v1.7.0: Needs youtube-dl. Not sure if this old version recognizes yt-dlp. If not rename or make a symlink (can be made on XP with Link Shell Extension:

    Today it changed "by itself" here. (the name changed after disabling and re-enabling the list): ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FYI, (in regards to uBO Legacy) Replace EasyDutch with AdGuard Dutch. (I think as a consequence of my post on Reddit) No commits to repo since Jan 14. See also issue tracker.

    Google Search adds a “web” filter, because it is no longer focused on web results Anyone already got hit by the new AI results on Google Search? Workaround: add `&udm=14` to the URL. So, I made a new entry in `$profiledirectory$\searchplugins` to add it to the search bar. (with the help of the extension `Add to Search Bar` (link). google-search-web.xml.7z

    See here which browsers support it: https://caniuse.com/?search=h.265 For Firefox: See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1889731

    I have an issue again with my custom Dutch language file. (it doesn't happen in a clean test profile) Clicking Help ---> Troubleshooting Information (about:support) gives: Translated: XML Parser error: undefined entity Location: jar:file:///C:/Program%20Files/palemoon/omni.ja!/chrome/toolkit/content/global/aboutSupport.xhtml Line number 123, column 15: &aboutSupport.appBasicsCPUCaps; I kind of forgot how to fix this in my language file.

    Yes, it forces the connection to that specific IPv4 IP address. Just the same as forcing a block of a connection to a site by: 0.0.0.0 evilsite.com For example, I have www.facebook.com like that in my hosts file and when I try to get DNS info about it with the `dig` command in Linux, this is the answer: dig www.facebook.com ; <<>> DiG 9.16.48-Ubuntu <<>> www.facebook.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 23139 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 65494 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.facebook.com.

That's up to the maintainer of uBO Legacy. What you could also do, is tell the maintainer of the list (@kargig) about his website issue on GitHub.

    What happens in New Moon if you revert your change in Network Connection properties and put the IPv4 address in your HOSTS file: 83.212.168.30 www.void.gr For starters, see: https://www.howtogeek.com/27350/beginner-geek-how-to-edit-your-hosts-file/ On a non-rooted Android phone it is not possible to modify system files. That is, not easily; see here.

    Adguard has some well maintained language specific filter lists, but not for Greece... They do have one for Dutch (and German) https://adguard.com/kb/general/ad-filtering/adguard-filters/
  18. nicolaasjan
    Maybe it's blocked at the DNS level? Try changing to another primary DNS at the router or in your OS. I use Quad9 (9.9.9.9). It's fast and blocks malware domains as well.
  19. nicolaasjan
    Weird, on my Pale Moon it works: BTW, I see that filter list still blocks a few .swf banners. Didn't know these were still around (or maybe the list needs cleaning). [Edit] Is the list even still maintained? ! Version: 2023112600 [Edit2] I see now that there was a commit last week: live24.gr##.banner live24.gr##.bannerContent
  20. nicolaasjan
    It works here on official Pale Moon and uBlock-for-firefox-legacy by UCyborg. I can reach the URL: https://www.void.gr/kargig/void-gr-filters.txt
  21. nicolaasjan
    I think you mean the BPC filter list.
  22. nicolaasjan
    I see `ip=1` here in Firefox as well (it appears after clicking on "more results".

    Thorium is apparently looking for Google Chromecast devices.
  24. nicolaasjan
    Thorium doesn't do it here, because I have UPnP service disabled. Why Thorium needs it, I don't know.

    The file `chrome.reg` in `examples` looks like this: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ; thorium version: 122.0.6261.169 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Thorium] "AbusiveExperienceInterventionEnforce"=dword:00000001 "AccessCodeCastDeviceDuration"=dword:0000003c "AccessCodeCastEnabled"=dword:00000001 "AccessControlAllowMethodsInCORSPreflightSpecConformant"=dword:00000001 "AccessibilityImageLabelsEnabled"=dword:00000000 "AdditionalDnsQueryTypesEnabled"=dword:00000001 "AdsSettingForIntrusiveAdsSites"=dword:00000001 "AdvancedProtectionAllowed"=dword:00000001 "AllowBackForwardCacheForCacheControlNoStorePageEnabled"=dword:00000001 "AllowCrossOriginAuthPrompt"=dword:00000000 "AllowDeletingBrowserHistory"=dword:00000001 "AllowDinosaurEasterEgg"=dword:00000000 (etc.) And the file `chrome.adm` starts with; ; thorium version: 122.0.6261.169 CLASS MACHINE CATEGORY !!chromium KEYNAME "Software\Policies\Thorium" CATEGORY !!ScreenCapture_Category POLICY !!SameOriginTabCaptureAllowedByOrigins_Policy #if version >= 4 SUPPORTED !!SUPPORTED_WIN7 #endif EXPLAIN !!SameOriginTabCaptureAllowedByOrigins_Explain PART !!SameOriginTabCaptureAllowedByOrigins_Part LISTBOX KEYNAME "Software\Policies\Thorium\SameOriginTabCaptureAllowedByOrigins" VALUEPREFIX "" END PART END POLICY (etc.) Are you sure you looked at the latest zip file: https://github.com/Alex313031/thorium-legacy/releases/download/M122.0.6261.169/thorium_policy_templates.zip Btw, I'm not planning to apply any of these on XP. When needed I do it manually (checked that it works under the `Chromium` key with e.g. : Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium] "DnsOverHttpsMode"="automatic" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Chromium] "DnsOverHttpsTemplates"="https://dns.quad9.net/dns-query" (checked with `netstat -an`)
