argh the tab animations lag even worse on my laptop (2.0ghz core2 duo, 4gb ram, mobility hd2600) Its alright on my desktop now though as long as I don't have any flash/tabs windows open. If I have another window open with a flash video the whole UI becomes laggy. I really hope they are working on this lol.

Finally decided to try the Beta and it's UGLY. Why is the normal status bar removed? Now all the extension options and settings that I used to have in my status bar are gone because I can't enable it. Don't like the Status4Evar add-on. Why isn't there an option to remove it if you want? Not only this, but it's way too much transparency.

Oh sh*t, another angry beta tester (I think). Runnn away people!

I just love these demanding users badging in like it's their day to rule and ask endless of why questions.

How is it way too much transparency? Opera, chrome, and ie9 all use just as much if not more. Firefox has the least transparent tabs (almost totally opaque)

The status bar was removed since they want addons to transition to having proper toolbar icons (i.e. so the user can have some form of control over placement, etc.)

That and the throbber now show the state of the site (Connecting, Loading, Done). The old status bar told you what it was doing, but it wasn't actually accurate (It'd say it was downloading an image or something, but in reality it was downloading something else, it only showed the file name after it had finished downloading that file)

Yep which is a good thing! I can't stand no toolbar icon for a addon. Pain in the butt.

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.

      Real shame the 16 GB versions are crazy more expensive than this.

    • iOS 27 & Apple Intelligence. Many iPhones become obsolete, right?

      And within the EU all this Siri AI stuff will probably work around 2030 and the IPhone 25 🤣
