I am Italian and I have registered regularly.
Why they sent you their German version notification, then? Probably you used a VPN located in Germany?

Thanks again ...
I shouldn't trust Brave these days. I discovered it requests "GetFirmwareType", GetFirmwareType - "Retrieves the firmware type of the local computer".

Why would a browser that declares itself "privacy oriented" want to know your exact firmware? Yes, it's for only one purpose, to bind your account to the PC you're on.
More and more sophisticated tracking.

Yes.
Hadn't Supermium declare itself portable? It would then be able to hook up with it from its root folder.

I was trying to recreate your voltage spike issue
You're indeed a very lucky one! Many users report the spiking issues, esp. when using browsers, so it's not only Supermium, but I thought win32 would be able to somehow fix the issue.
"I'm having the same issue with a 3070. Spikes to max all the time while idling or browsing the internet."

i did, i tried 10+ drivers.. none of them worked
I suppose you did it through the Device manager? Cause if no, the nVidia install makes the lock.

Did you enable the flag from @D.Draker's guidance topic?

Yes, 3070-3080 would be more future proof, besides having the drivers.

thanks for responding, sad this didnt go anywhere given the fact nvidia made sure all of us W7 users wouldnt get 30 series laptop drivers for the Ti models (unlike the windows xp modded GTX 960 driver that gave the entire 900 series fully functional drivers, or whatever it was called)
No prob., so you tried to add the device ID to the driver I gave? Well, indeed very sad, then.

Try this one - original mobile driver.

Simple (without the "Ti") GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU - should work.

i attempted to mod this driver https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/197673/en-us/
This driver is from the same old R470 batch, it's just security crap they added to make it look like it's new. R470 batch is very old, it was released before the said GPU even existed.

Is this the card model, if so, I'm afraid you're outta luck.

couldn't reproduce the symptoms you're describing on this box (Titan X GPU), in XP or Vista. Here's a screencap vid of Supermium being closed and reopened, with hwmonitor not showing any voltage/power change.
Then try this - start Supermium with HW acceleration already switched on in advance, click play video, look at the voltage spike.

You could shut off HW acceleration in Supermium by going to Settings->System->turning off "Use hardware acceleration when available". OTOH, couldn't reproduce the symptoms you're describing on this box (Titan X GPU), in XP or Vista. Here's a screencap vid of Supermium being closed and reopened, with hwmonitor not showing any voltage/power change. Tell me how it looks on your Philips TV.
Thanks, I think I already wrote I do it via CMD with flags, when you asked me which flags I use. Philips has brilliant, amazing colours, very natural. I enjoy British shows with David Attenborough.

How does one measure?
Here we can observe confirmations from multiple users:
"45 seconds to start up Supermium..."
https://github.com/win32ss/supermium/issues/358
Like I said, this doesn't happen to me with Ungooggled.
For me, it's not 45 seconds, but more like several seconds vs milliseconds in Ungoogled, still very high, especially if we consider the fact Supermium "greets" me with a blank white screen (despite the dark theme currently forced on), and it stays unresponsive for like 7-10 seconds. With extensions it'd be much, much longer.

Core voltages momentarily ramp up?
Yes, but it's with every browser that has video acceleration switched on, not only Supermium.
20 hours ago, 66cats said:One of the joys of having old HW is not having to worry about stuff like that, close that HWMONITOR. The GPU is there to be used, enjoy it
It's the joy I wouldn't want to get rid of yet, Like I said, I don't watch videos in browsers, I have a huge Philips TV for that purpose.

Well, I tried uBlock 1.54, and I wasn't happy with its slow performance at all, frankly I'm disappointed. In the end, it glitched out for me completely, leaving the lists' page totally empty.

The interesting bit is Supermium doesn't require extended kernel to run (ungoogled, just like Chrome/Chromium, does).
A fair guess is to assume Supermium already includes the kernel mod within the non-disclosed, close source parts, like progwrp.dll, for example.

Two-part question:
1. Why does it matter if, while you're using a browser, the HDD led flashes? Are you concerned about a nominally higher electric bill, heads servo noise, HDD wearing out, what is the drawback of the HDD being used?
2. Ditto for GPU acceleration: Why would you not want your GPU to be used?
1. No, we got a very cheap, green electricity, here in Holland, I'm more concerned with the unnecessary wear and log waiting times each start brings.
2. The same idi*otic voltage spikes each start brings, why would a browser need to bring my gpu to the full clocking state each start? Then it of course settles down, but it's simply not helping to let it survive longer.

Out of curiosity, why does heavier HDD & GPU use matter if it doesn't slow the browser down?
I don't understand the question. I have a fast HDD - Raptor, a very old GTX titan (produced: Januray 2013).

No tests are needed since it's too obviously noticeable. Ungoogled opens up in a matter of milliseconds, while with the usual Chrome or even Supermium I have to wait for 3 seconds on my HDD. But then again, it may be different with your hardware.

Sure, though will boot into 10 or 11 and give it another shot. Would be fun to see if 'light' really does mean fast
Probably a more fair comparison would be to run them both on Vista, Ungoogled runs on Vista ex-kernel up to version 110-111 or so.
Supermium was made for Vista initially, that's what I mean.

i'm pretty reliant on my Google account (Gmail, YT, Sync, etc.))
Then you've come to the right place, I don't think Supermium will ever be fully ungoogled. With the rate the developer adds Ungoogled features it may only happen in the year 3047.
Why? I don't know, probably the ungoogled demand is low.

To the current date, no such driver exists.
