Hello again roytam1,

is there any possible chance getting this website below, to work ? i need to access it, but It always crashes when i try to load it, the page doesnt even show up or load at all...just instantly crashes when i try to visit it.

https://spectrumsurveys.com

I dont know exactly how long it's been happening before but the last version i had of Basilik was from April 2025 and it crashed then... and still does on your latest July 4th build.
 

this should be reported to upstream.

maybe related but the patch there doesn't help: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1296410

workarounded by relaxing check in DrawTargetCairo::IsValid(), and it seems not crashing for me now. https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/10b96192dd99bd7daef5072d51d7f739e01d2fbc

ah great to know. i wouldnt have had any idea how to even know what was wrong, because it wouldnt ever show any information at all before the site would crash instantly, in the "Tools => Web Console" (or browswer console) window. Thats good you knew though.

got a sn850x but it doesn't work on any m.2 slots in my B450 steel legend. with m.2 to PCIe x1 convertor it works, just too slow.

EDIT: after reading https://www.reddit.com/r/ASRock/comments/1gjwx3h/working_gen4_nvme_ssd_that_does_not_have_a_pin/ , I think I need to get another one using Phison E18 controller.

 

Can you see yourself ever using Visual C++ 2008 to produce Windows 2000 and XP RTM/SP1 compatible browsers, or do you need Visual C++ 2005 compatibility? I have a Visual C++ 2008/Windows 7 SDK compatible build of Firefox 35.0a1 I was thinking of uploading, but don't know if I should or not.

Hey Nicholas,have you heard Retrozilla 2.3 released updates? Are you gonna merge changes from retrozilla 2.3 to your fork?

Yes I have, but my plan is actually to get New Moon 27 working with Windows 2000 (and XP/SP1), then create a Visual C++ 5.0 build of Firefox 3.0 (I have no idea how to make it work with Windows NT 3.50 or earlier, nor can I test it, but I'll eventually open the door to someone who can). I know I want Gecko 1.9, but I still struggle to figure out if I want the default theme of Firefox 1.5, 2.0, or 3.0.

I think there is no much difference between vc2005 and vc2008?

If you can install Visual C++ 2008, it will produce Windows 2000 and XP compatible software (but with manifest errors affecting both Visual C++ 2005 and 2008). Mozilla got around that by building "mozcrt19.dll" somehow, but I have not been able to build it. Should I upload the source code and resulting executable?

they did this because they want jemalloc to be integrated into C runtime, which is un-recommended by MS later.
