OK, but websites that are rendered fine in every browser I have (FF, Opera, IE7) just don't render correctly in IE8.

I don't know why I have the horizontal scrollbar for some reason... I don't see an option for it anywhere.

Another minor cosmetic thing: everytime I open a new tab my locked toolbar messes up, too.

IE8 has destroyed the Live Maps application, as wel as all other maps applications and other applications that hide content under the rest of the page. It's kinda slow, and i have a horizontal scrollbar everywhere I go :(. It also has rendering problems on a lot of websites, but that is probably the fault of those websites (i'm looking at you neowin devs :shifty:).

The activities on the other hand are kind of cool, and the rendering engine seems to render a lot of pages more like Firefox. So there has been a lot of improvement but the devs still have a long way to go to get the Triton engine to overcome the javascript flaws.

Wait, wait... Look at this one:

:D

lol I too see a horizontal scrollbar. The form elements seem to behave significantly different compared to IE7. pseudo states such as active on form elements are finally supported ! Heading int he right direction but have some ways to go for sure.

About IE8 not rendering webpages correctly in standards mode while FF and Opera does.

Remember that both FF and Opera have adopted a lot of code into their engines to render IE designed webpages correctly. while IE8 standards ode is just plain standards.

yes, if the menu is that big in the final it's going to be pretty annoying. ie7 has imo a virtually perfect ui. they hneed to make the menu in 8 much smaller. currently there is a lot of wasted space.

It's only that size with the favourites menu enabled.... if you disable it, then it looks just like IE7.

I hope they get some good support for ACID3 with Beta2 as it kind of blows up and fails lol

Anyone think the right click menu is far to big

People complain about standards: Now shuts up the bitches and IE8 passes them 100%

People complain about nonstandards being standard: Now people bitch

People complain about the ACID3 test when NO browser completes the test 100: Now people bitch

Conclusion: People are bitches.

well considering IE8 Beta 1 failes ACID3 on 17%

FF 3.0 failes on 67%

What you posted makes no sence what so ever. IE8 dont require any non standard code to load a standard website

    • 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.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
