Evolution: they plan on releasing the build within the next week, read the article.....

We have some excellent news! Lars Erik Bolstad, the Head of Core Technology at Opera Software, sent me the following information to share:

I have a quick update on where we are with Acid3.

Since the test was officially announced recently, our Core developers have been hard at work fixing bugs and adding the missing standards support.

Today we reached a 100% pass rate for the first time! There are some remaining issues yet to be fixed, but we hope to have those sorted out shortly.

We will release a technical preview version on labs.opera.com within the next week or so. For now, the screenshot above shows the Acid3 test as rendered in our latest WinGogi Desktop build. WinGogi is the Windows version of our reference builds used for the internal testing of Opera's platform independent Core.

unless that build is downloadable.... it can't be confirmed...

It still doesn't pass the test, so even 100/100 doesn't mean that much... (if synthetic tests can mean that much to begin with... here we already have a perfect score with a wrong rendering :p)

I wonder what version of opera that is. I just ran mine and got 60/100 only. If it is a new build I hope they realese it soon.

It's supposedly a post-9.5 build, maybe a Peregrin prototype or something? Supposedly will be available for download in a week or so, albeit for now you can download a snapshot build of Opera 9.5 that passes 77/100

there's space missing between the "," and "a" in "To pass the test, a browser..."

It's a problem with all available Opera builds AFAIK, from 9.0 to 9.26 to the latest 9.5 snapshot to this internal post-9.5 build.

WebKit is at 98/100 and is downloadable right now. http://webkit.org/blog/170/webkit-hits-98100-on-acid3/

well, WebKit also has its own share of rendering problems unrelated to the scores that's preventing it from achieving a pixel-perfect result of the reference image, so even a 100/100 won't mean a pass either.

So Opera made it to 100 first, good job.

I dont get the "but still not yet pass...", if you are refering to "There are some remaining issues yet to be fixed," that could mean other stuff not related to the test.

Edit: the screenshot is too small for me to even see if there is a missing space between "," amd "a". Looks fine to me.

well, to quote the test itself "To pass the test,a browser must use its default settings, the animation has to be smooth, the score has to end on 100/100, and the final page has to look exactly, pixel for pixel, like this reference rendering." It's the "pixel for pixel" part that this build of Opera in the screenshot fails, at least by a whole space character, which is quite a lot of pixels :laugh:

And we don't know whether the animation is smooth or not... for example the current build of WebKit is NOT smooth on the animation... :shiftyninja:

This is quite surprising. Webkit's making good progress but up until now we all figured Opera's weekly builds were their only sign of progress. Is it just me or this is the first time I've heard of "WinGogi"?

Nevertheless, (Y) to them.

I havent used Opera in a long time. It was my favorite browser for some time but im lazy and just use IE7/8 in Vista but I might give it a shot when this new build comes out.

I remember playing around with ubuntu and was :( that I couldnt get Opera working on the 64-bit version and had to use firefox.

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.

      with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
