Works great on the latest nightly.

negative

Because Chrome isnt a new(er) browser and its entirely original right???Themes, extensions, tabs...all new :whistle:

Further , Google Chrome introduced Javascript performance , prior to that , it was just unknown to everyone and those ppl were fools who said , see , Firefox does that j word faster and now my Facebook is faster than on IE :p

Can anybody tell me what WebM is please? :)

The WebM Project is a Google-sponsored project dedicated to create an open and royalty free video format that provides high quality video compression for use with HTML5 video.

The WebM format consists of the VP8 video codec developed by On2 and the Vorbis audio codec, in a container format based on a profile of Matroska.[2][3][4] The project releases WebM related software under a BSD License with patent clause.

Didn't Opera come up with their dreadful rendition of tabs on top after Chrome?

i don;t think that counts for innovation. which of them got their tabs on top first...

chrome gave the start with some innovations like multi process browsing (better than loosely coupled IE implementation) and supported performance war :)

but i'm sure the others browsers (firefox, ie, opera, safari etc...) had a lot of more innovations because they were here a long time ago.

btw i like chrome but i can't understand how a browser doesn't have rss support... not that i use it that much.

LOL , after my terrible exprience about Copying menu button of firefox by opera thread i posted earlier , i doubt there is something called Innovation by individual company!!

WebM is fairly slow (720p WebM = 78% CPU, 720p Theora = 45% CPU), but that will change in time.

Yes , because this is initial non-public releases

On Mac OS X it still sucks; OOP plugins don't work with the latest nightly - every time I go to YouTube it claims that I don't have the flash plugin installed (when I do). Then there is the continued lack of tab process isolation which makes it even worse.

I don't want to sound like a downer but Firefox on Mac royally sucks - when it someone going to do something about it?

It's a nightly, bugs are to be expected.

For me, YouTube doesn't repaint properly, Flash doesn't receive keyboard events, full screen opens up unfocused (so you need to click on the screen to interact with it) and there's no right click menu.

OOP QuickTime's worse (it either doesn't redraw at all, or displays every second frame flipped vertically)

To compete with performance of h264, webM need to acquire hardware acceleration. (You can't beat 0%...)

In other words, WebM can only be called performance-friendly on systems that support hardware WebM decoding.

Although, then we can then compare GPU unitization h264 vs. WebM.

I've got today's build but i can't view webm videos...

Try viewing this

webm=1&html5=1

no all videos will work , do check for bold content above

Thanks , updated :D

The problem is that in my case the plugin doesn't work at all because the browser doesn't even detect the existence of the plugin. I can handle bugginess but the damn thing isn't working at all.

    • 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
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • 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.
