So anyone know if it is possible to remove the title bar for firefox 4 on OSX?

I've always found it a waste of space myself, and seeing iTunes ditch it, I would love to do the same to Firefox.

Would like to see this as well, one of my biggest desires from Firefox (via official options or addon).

Opera 10.60 was released with a flash bug that caused various crashes & lockups as well as streaming audio to continue playing after the browser window was closed until the user terminated it in task manager.

Really? I didn't see any such problem.

Stating a fact according to the Opera Devs & 100's of users on Opera forums as well as my own experience.

According to the Opera devs? Source, please.

Whoo! So I can then just disable SoapyHanHocks stylish script, and I'll see no difference! :p

the only difference is that now you can resize the location/search box even with the buttons in the middle :)

edit: the accelerated-layer bug which made the page black after scrolling was fixed, but not the one which covers the captions button whith white

Rendering performance in the latest nightly's pretty bad, but scrolling is smooth as all hell with Direct3D layers (not many bugs left until that's usable)

Soon enough Canvas will get faster still with Direct3D layers, and JaegerMonkey is close to landing (it's interesting to read about how they're going on that)

also the menu button and menu is lagged very bad

edit: the lag seems to have mostly gone away after being up for a few minutes

on the upside flash doesn't seem to have any issues when scrolling anymore in this build

Official Opera Forums. Use the search box and type in "Flash". 185 Flash based problems posted in the last 60 days. I personally like Opera and do not have any bias in my statements of how it is being mismanaged. I see a great product being kept from succeeding by poor leadership and bad management. Opera could easily take the lead in the browser wars by providing what other browsers have, a working, friendly plug in architecture, addons platform, compliant flash standards, and the ability to render all web sites correctly as I.E & F.F. does. Right now these require in depth user research and grease monkey scripts. No user wants to learn CODE, that's the developers responsibility. Opera is like using linux, it does everything you want it to do with days of reading forums and hours of entering scripts and code. I use windows, I want something that just works! Opera's primary share in users currently is based on Opera mobile, without that there would be no market share at all! Sorry to ramble on, I am very upset with their wasted potential. Maybe stoners develope it. Makes no sense. Could a, should a, would a, but I got high!

is the combined go/stop/reload button supposed to appear on the left side if the address bar or is this a bug or something wrong with my setup?

Sounds like a bug or a Stylish script messing with the button to me. The stop/go/reload button should appear on the right end of the address bar.

ok, i disabled all my stylish scripts and reset my toolbar layout and it's still on the left wtf, give me a minute and i'll get a screenshot

ok here's a screenshot, the button only appears when i hover over the address bar

ok, i found the culprit, it was the extension locationbar2

firefox seems to be using a lot more CPU than usual in todays nightly, has anyone else noticed this

just sitting Idle it jumps around anywhere from 22% - 40% CPU

here in idle it uses between 1% and 13-14%

You must start Firefox with one tab, then open other tabs and CPU usage should be fine.

If you coldboot with many tabs the usage will be crazy.

it appear mozilla won't release FF4 x64

If you?re holding your breath while waiting for the 64-bit (x64) flavor of Firefox 4.0, feel free to exhale now.

The next major iteration of Mozilla?s open source browser will support 32-bit (x86) platforms exclusively, despite some very promising work from the browser vendor early in the development process for version 4.0.

Mozilla?s Director of Firefox, Mike Beltzner confirmed the fact that an x64 flavor of Firefox won?t be added to the existing x86 version, per the 32-bit/64-bit Internet Explorer 8 model.

Firefox users should not despair though. Fact is that Mozilla hasn?t given up on delivering a 64-bit version of Firefox, just not with Firefox 4.0.

Yes. It's coming with 4.x, hopefully not too long after 4.0.

I was hoping this thread would be a discussion about the Beta itself, not a complete mob of Stylish users, since there's already a thread for that.

Things break and that includes stylish scripts. Why can't that be discussed here?

As for the person above me, why do you care about 64bit for a web browser? What, do you want 64-bit processing of text and images or something? GPU acceleration is going to be coming anyway, and from the looks of your graphics card, I think you'll be just fine.

At least he is posting info instead of attacking people. One example is that 64bit TM is actually faster than it's 32bit counterpart. 64 bit JM is slower on the other hand, but maybe they can still optimize that.

Disappointing :(

Mozilla shouldn't be dropping the axe like this, we've seen a few features ruled out already , Who cares if the release slips, It wouldn't hurt us to wait that little bit longer for a solid, fully featured release rather than a half baked one.

    • 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.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
