Feeling better?

Yes, besides a cough, I'm good now. No, it doesn't include the print patch. For some unexplainable reason, it also broke something entirely different and I didn't want to risk functionality loss.

hey bangbang, why do you update daily?

um because there are daily updates.

These are nightly builds in case you didn't know, not release builds. They are the very latest code and are not gauranteed to be stable, there are usually things broken.

umm, that is incorrect. If firefox didn't make an "unstable" build, they wouldn't release it to the public without having it being tested first. Since there is nightly builds... they are stable, and whatever is tweaked, is tested before posting (Y). they have a full 24 hours to test it out before launching a nightly build.

Sorry man, but flightmike1 was right. The nightly builds are often plagued with severe issues, especially early on in a branch merging. They do not spend the entire 24 hours testing a build. They simply compile it and, if it completes, they upload it. They may smoke test them, to some degree, but I'm not 100% on that.

Well, BangBang, I haven't got the slightest idea what you're actually doing here but it seems you're making a significant contribution to the Neowin community so I want to thank you for that. Since I haven't heard of SSE2 I'm doubting my processor supports it (Athlon XP) but thanks all the same for doing whatever it is you're doing!

Thank you XenonicRob. Basically, I optimize the code base to run more quickly on systems that support the SSE2 instruction set. Your processor does not support it, unfortunately. While I don't contribute to the Fx world as many other do, I hope my builds so help out some people, at least.

Well if you say that, and you release build every day (apart from some off days) who does more then that?? lol :huh:

Guys like mmoy or guys who submit patches that get used in the official code. I'm a builder, but the coders do a lot more work than I.

    • No updated SSD capacity, no updated specs (not surprised tbf), just nostalgia baiting! Bring back the boot sequence and the UI as an easter egg!
    • Why? It will just cost so much more and make you PC poor and they become PC rich off your calamities! “Just because you can” isn’t a flex either!.
    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
    • Does it have couch co-op is the question I have here.
