I use Firefox. However, I downloaded Avant like 2 weeks ago and I'm getting in love with it. I has kicking ass features and a very sleek design. What I really love most about it, is the floating tabs, you can put them wherever you want. The thing is, it's based on IE, so ...

I voted for firefox, been playing around with linux these few weeks and opera didn't perform as well as I want it to. However opera would be my vote on winxp system, it just performs much faster, I couldn't get firefox to cache pages the way I want it to, sites like ign or anything with a prev/next pages listing reloads half the page whenever I click back/forward, I just can't make it cache like opera (pages loads instantly from cache for me with opera everywhere), and I can't get over that and no one cared to give me a solution, so I ditched firefox in windows.

I go back to firefox every once a while, the extensions are just that flexible, I tried epiphany in gnome but it lacked a lot of settings and extensions, if they could however use the same extensions and settings as FF I would switch to epiphany. So interms of usability I vote for Opera on windows. Features and potential wise, FF takes the cake, opera just don't feel like it's going anywhere without extensions, even though I love the browser, something is lacking from every browsers imo, so I voted for I might make a switch from whatever I'm using at the moment.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
