Personally I like neither. Back when I was using IE9 as main (that lasted 3 days, by the way), I just felt I could just bookmark the website and use it like that in most cases, without the need for a new window. Plus I tend to just navigate away from an app when I no longer need it, and with IE9, it would still display the colorful buttons and the app icon, even though I wasn't using the app anymore. That was annoying.

The "app tabs" also won't do it, since they reset whenever you launch the browser, and if you have many, they will run in the background all the time. The state of those stabs should be saved unless the user specified otherwise.

Web apps, it's a really early thing, everyone is still trying to figure out how to do it.

App Tabs do not reset for me, once they are pinned.

Gettings this error message to, 3 times when I open Firefox. Found out that Stylish and Status-4-evar is the cause for two of them.

I was unaware of that, in Chrome "pinned tabs" just reset whenever you launch the browser. Thanks for letting me know!

You probably do not have the browser startup set to "reopen the pages that were open last time" or you delete you browsing history on exit or with an app like ccleaner, which will erase the tab settings as well.

However, FF4 still seems to have better tab saving settings even after you delete the history, which can be good or bad depending on how you look at it.

I'm having a problem with the latest nightly:

I'm seeing these odd black zones everywhere. has anyone else experienced this?

edit: I already tried using a new profile, but that didn't help so it's probably not an add-on...

Latest nightly fixed my problem :)

They're really pushing through work, I've had to update 3 times today, and 2 of those times I've actually ended up skipping builds and having to download the full update (33MB on OS X)

My impression that each time there's a "re-spin", we will get the full update which is ~16.3 MB for Win32, IIRC. The incremental one is < 3MB.

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • Governments are ruining the internet to protect kids but there is a much better way

      By WaltC · Posted

      From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.

    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By Case_f · Posted

      BTW DXVK is also available on Windows and offers similar benefits like on Linux when it comes to performance, at least in some titles. The Raceroom racing sim for example even offers DXVK as one of its officially supported options and it can achieve ridiculous improvements in certain situations, like quite literally doubling (or more) the framerates
