I will go crazy if they wont fix it soon.

You and me both.

This isn't a new thing though, it's been like it for months (on many websites) or am I the only person who noticed it? :p

I only started seeing it happen after I reinstalled Ubuntu and installed Chrome 28 and its been less than a week since I did that.

I only just started noticing it, but I''m on Win 8 and Chrome Dev just updated to 29, before that it wasn't happening

Yeah I never had a problem before update, I thought it had fixed but 'Random Pictures' thread brought it back :/

Just started seeing this earlier today. Annoying as hell! Also getting the gif freezing bug as well - had that one for MONTHS! :angry:,

I know it's nothing you guys can fix though, just venting :)

This is actually really getting on my nerves now, it is not just Neowin.

Since updating to 29 I have had this bug on about 6 different websites. They have definitely broken something :(

Ctrl-F5 fixes it sometimes but I have to do this every time I visit a new link on a page and sometimes it doesn't fix anything.

I haven't, how would you submit it? part of the page fails to render onload while scrolling?

Not sure, but it's definitely not just from scrolling while it's trying to load. Just watching a page load not touching anything triggers it for me.

I'm not sure really, never submitted a bug really but maybe you can add screen shots and compare a page with and without the bug.... :huh:

Not to rain on the parade but I have been seeing this issue using v27 (current release build) as well.

Saying that, I only updated to v29 the other day and I think it was present before I updated, I can't be certain though.

This is happening to me more and more now on many pages.

I've visited 4 pages this morning, including neowin, that have this rendering/layout bug, neowin is the only forum too; the other pages are just normal websites.

Also, I have reported this to google using their feedback form. Hopefully they get back to me/fix the bug.

I also just reported the problem. I included the URL to this thread as well as a screenshot of the problem.

It's odd that I never seem to get the problem while looking at the forum index or anything, only when I'm viewing a thread.

I have only started experiencing this with the 29 update, no previous updates, however, what I have noticed at least with my experience anyway is that it only happens when i go to a different page within a thread, it never happens on the first load of a thread and it never happens outside of the thread pages.

both on Windows 7 and 8 now.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand

      By Nas · Posted

      Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.

      Hello, I have used a few TEAM Group SSDs, USB flash drives, and Micro SDXC cards in the past. They all seemed to work fine. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
