He's just saying Windows ME is better than XP I think. :laugh:

How can ANYONE CLAIM an obsolete Operating System that 1000's of users had problems with eg - BSOD error's think that this is better than XP ?? - I can tell you since changing over to XP I have far few BSOD's than I ever had with WinME. Windows Me is obsolete technologies and has been replaced with a superior product :p WinMe is not as half advanced as the Windows XP technologies are. Claiming its better is just plain stupid ! :huh: (no flaming intended - I respect your feelings) but I do work with PC's for a living, and I know MOST customers don't like Windows Me ;)

On Apache-User's program:

It would be impossible to do a pop-up blocker or download manager. Why? Apache-User created it with a toolkit called BrowserBob, which doesn't have those features.

I'm working on my own version with some more functionality. Right now, just enjoy Apache-User's IE replacement, it's OK. :)

Edit: Added screenshot of my IE replacement. It is still a total work-in-progress, you don't know how dysfunctional it is until you have used it. However, I am trying to make it aesthetically equivalent, and it already has a lot of work put into it.

what language are u using to code ? are u planning to make it a open source project ?

See my above post. It was created with a custom-browser toolkit called BrowserBob. If you download the trial you should be able to open the config.bob file in the IE replacement folder and edit it.

I've been working on my own version of the 4051 IE, which all of the images and functions are ripped directly out of the 4051 build... it's an early beta (I dont have the menu's or toolbar buttons finished yet except for refresh) but I thought I'd release it and get some people to beta test it for me and find problems and/or see what they think and like or dislike about it. Here is a screenshot:

    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates

      By zikalify · Posted

      Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
