i'll wait til it's a finished product (1.0) before looking at it, so it might have a chance of staying on my hard drive :ninja:

honestly, the name "firefox" sounds stupid to me, firebird made more sense :yes: i mean, who wants an icon of a flaming fox on their desktop? :blink:

I think this browser has been fed steroids.... It is going fast but takes up memory like hell. I am probably going to wait until I can get a better system to test.

I found nothing that justifies why FF should be installed other than "get away from IE" part. FB 0.7 works great and IMHO, i think is good enough for people to switch from IE.

Using it now, liking it :)

esp the installer and that all my bookmarks were intact (Y)

had one unfortunate incident with a firebird nightly awhile back :pinch:

Only extension that imported was adblock, need to reinstall googlebar pronto.

so basically, only a few people who weren't already using firebird/phoenix upgraded to firefox.. otherwise its all previous users upgrading their browser.

interesting

yeah, the people who really love the browser are the first to upgrade, but most people won't. it's just not well-known yet. maybe i can get some people to try it out. :ninja:

    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs by Sayan Sen Earlier today AMD released a major graphics driver update as it brings support for FSR 4.1 to Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs. The new update, version 26.6.2, also brings support for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and more. And while the driver technically supports Windows 10 version 21H2 and newer, the tech giant has confirmed that there is a major issue with the new driver on non-Windows 11 PCs as it fails to launch properly on such systems. The error message says, "The version of AMD Software that you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver." Therefore on the surface it looks like a compatibility problem. AMD has also confirmed that the device manager will display the yellow bang or yellow exclamation sign alongside your GPU under the Display adapters dropdown. Here is what the Radeon team's official advisory recommends to affected users: "Users Running Windows 10 and AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 May Encounter Yellow Bang in Device Manager Affecting AMD Radeon RX Series Graphics ... Our Engineers are currently investigating this issue and will provide a fix once it is available. Affected users may revert to AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.1 as a temporary workaround." As such you should revert back to the previous 26.6.1 driver which was released earlier this month. In case you were looking to play Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations you will probably have to wait a while if you want the driver to support those games officially. You can find the support article here on Microsoft's website.

    • A McDonald's restaurant uses about 1.5 to 2 million gallons of water per year for operations like food preparation, cleaning, and restrooms. That is a lot less than the 2,083 gallons of water per megawatt hour mentioned above.

    • Underpowered and overpriced, both separately and together. This is to be taken as a "1st gen" (Linux+Proton based), and to wait for the 2nd gen that hopefully is a bit better value/balanced. Or wait for a sale.
