I've downloaded that a few times, but each time I go to click "Install" on userscripts.org, all I get is a page of script, and nothing is installed. Is it just a problem on my end?

Could be. I haven't had any problems installing scripts from userscripts.org with the latest dev build of gm.

But why no progressbar/line? These circles are just spinning but not showing the percentage.

The lines lied. There was no actual progress being shown, because the size of the page is unknown.

woah so they're picking the throbber colour for us now?

Green is the color of progress bars on Windows (Aero), on Mac OS X they are blue and on Linux they seem to be following the Ubuntu theme.

Mac: loading.png

Win: loading.png

Lin: loading.png

These look really nice. I have something to stare at while the page loads, as funny as that sounds! :laugh:

I might miss the tab progress lines, but now that I'm ready that they're not even accurate it's a necessary loss. :)

It won't be out soon as there are still 17 bugs including 6 critical

Good explanation for the seemingly static beta 7 bugs list here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=10033079#p10033079

Great explanation, I knew there were like 18 bugs a week ago, but now I understand the problem.

Just now my minefield updated to another build. the new loading animations are green on windows.

Not particularly true, since it wasn't even supposed to exist. Mozilla needs to re-examine their mockups.

They implemented the progress bars, and found they didn't work too well (i.e. they sucked)

Then they implemented the new spinner, but it was just using a temporary image at the time since the theme specific versions hadn't been made. They were made and then landed.

The mockups are just that, mockups. The finished product was never going to match them exactly 100% (some mockups showed things that simply weren't possible), and the design was always going to change going from an idea to an actual implementation (e.g. progress bars, they looked pretty, but sucked when using them)

Is Beta 7 supposed to be Feature complete? Compartment GC, JC and other bits all landed or going to be landed on beta 7 branch.

Beta 8 will be fixing and polishing these features as well we as other performance and UI patch.

Am i missing anything?

P.S - At this rate it will be xmas before we see Firefox 4.

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
