Be careful with those Radish, they break Saft fairly often, which is my main reason for not doing it until each Saft update.

Oh, and does anyone know why the Acid2 passing code hasn't been merged into the nightlies yet?

Haven't broken saft for me yet and as far as the acid2 passing code, it works fine.

Well last night's update broke Saft 8.1 for me, but I needed to upgrade to 8.1.1 anyway. When I visit the Acid2 test page it still renders incorrectly.

Confusing. I'll try and update again.

Saft was already broken because of the security update yesterday so you may just be better off upgrading saft and then trying the acid2 test

Then this is very confusing. I just ran NightShift again, and forced it to download Tuesday's nightly despite it telling me I already had it. And this still happens:

I just installed the Nightly of WebKit and the Acid test almost works right for me. Everything except the eyes show.

I just have to remember to load WebKit instead of Safari now.

Is there anyway to have Safari automatically use the latest WebKit?

Other -> Camino...

Camino works like Firefox, but is better in the fact that it's built only for Mac and therefore works exactly how a Mac program should. Firefox is annoying since it doesn't quite "fit in" with other programs. You can tell it's a ported program, I guess. I see in Deer Park that it is being done better for Mac, but it is still nowhere near as good as Camino is in that respect. In any case, it shares Firefox's Mozilla core, so it still has the same Gecko engine with good standards support, etc.

No Safari RSS is the name of the latest version of Safari in Tiger. If you got here and look at the title of the page, you'll see what I mean.

Nah-uh. :p http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/archi..._07.html#005893

Safari is definitely my favorite web browser for Mac, and doesn't have a rival, in my eyes, on the Windows side.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Yay, a forced new tab telling everyone edge just updated with a load of advertising in it twice as often as we currently get it. That'll never be abused. 😏

      I wonder if it was applying secure boot certificates/dbx files?

      I recently tried edge. It seems a lot better. A lot of the junk in it is gone. It seems less bloated and snappy.
    • Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns

      By zikalify · Posted

      Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels The UK consumer rights organization, Which?, is claiming that “potentially lethal knock-off chargers” are still being sold on online marketplaces seven years after it exposed the danger of these chargers. In its latest investigation, it bought 15 USB phone chargers from several online marketplaces and found they were missing key information, meaning they cannot be legally sold in the UK. Which? bought the 15 chargers from seven online marketplaces. These were Amazon (including Amazon Haul), AliExpress, B&Q Marketplace, Debenhams Marketplace, and eBay. It said that the chargers were so badly made that anyone using them was at risk of electric shock. Over half the chargers also posed fire and explosion risks. Of the chargers purchased, one was a fake Apple USB-C 35W power adaptor charger. To confuse buyers, the box was branded with an Apple logo, but testing found it to be a fake. Further testing picked up arcing sounds after 10 seconds of use, where a current jumps between two parts of the electrical circuit, which can cause fires, explosions, or electric shock. The manufacturers of this particular charger also put modeling clay inside it to make it feel more weighty, robust, and genuine. Not all of the chargers were technically faulty; however, some were missing key packaging, markings, and documentation, meaning they can’t be sold in the UK legally. Which? said that it is now campaigning alongside a coalition of safety groups and businesses for new laws that make online marketplaces responsible for ensuring the safety of products that they choose to list on their websites. It also said the government needs to start using powers under the Product Regulation and Metrology Act, which was adopted last July, to impose safety requirements on online marketplaces via secondary legislation, but so far, there have been delays. No matter what country you are in, be sure to properly research what you are buying and only buy authentic chargers to prevent fires. You can read more about Which?’s research here.
