I need the plugin ReloadEvery and had much problems with the versions with the stop- and reload-button into one and searched for an answer to use both of it correctly. Now I founded this possibility.

Here' s my way:

Download and extract the *.zip which I attached.

Close your Firefox.

Browse to: %appData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<Your Profile>\extensions\{888d99e7-e8b5-46a3-851e-1ec45da1e644}\chrome (I hope it is the same long number)

In this folder is placed a file called reloadevery.jar. Open it with a rar-Extractor, for instance WinRAR.

Drag & drop the downloaded end extracted file in the folder called "content". On the pop-up which opens click "OK".

Start Firefox.

It should work ;)

I just wanted to update everyone.

We've modified the URL bar to be 1px smaller to match the mockup. I remade the Reload/Stop buttons as well as the Bookmarks and Tools to match this.

We've added the Tabs from SpewBoy's theme (with permission) as well as other buttons and hopefully the small buttons for those who use them :).

Here a WIP screenshot.

oh man ByB looks great.. Any update on a release time? I am itching to use it

I do have a question. I see you have the big bookmarks button, are we still going to have the option of using the small star for the bookmarks that attaches well to the Tools button? Because that looks best to me personally.

I don't think that's possible, being there is only one image for tools and bookmarks. Sorry about that.

Anyone know how to get this theme to play nicely with Download StatusBar? The downloads on the statusbar now look like **** =( But everything else looks swoit!

I'm not sure. I will have to see if there is a way to fix that.

I know this maybe asking a lot but maybe you could release two variations one with the closer bookmark star button and one with the newer full bookmark button, just a suggestion :)

What we're planning on doing is keeping the current version up for download, as well as the newest version.

Just wanted to let you guys know we are still working on it. Here is an updated screenshot with small toolbar icons. We are using SpewBoy's icons, with permission of course.

Is there any try to release a version with tabs on top and without the window headline of the firefox?

Yes, we do plan on releasing one with tabs on top. I'm not sure if we are going to do be able to remove the window headline, but I'm sure it's possible.

Any clues as to release day? :D

Well, I can't give an exact date, but I would say sometime soon. We have finished nearly everything, just a few things need to tweaked here and there.

Once we are finished everything needs to be given to dert07 who will create the tabs on top version. Hopefully we can get in touch with him in a timely manner and get this release to you guys soon :).

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in may areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.

      It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.

      Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
