It's a preexisting bug which 8.1 made more prevalent, at least that's what I think (I remember seeing bug reports about it since they switched on DPI scaling, since 8.1 was released I've seen just as many new ones filed)

Why? Who knows! That's being rendered internally by Firefox so I have no idea why it'd be different in 8.1 vs. 8 or even 7.

Edit: Or maybe 8.1 is now changing the DPI in more places, that's a much better explanation.

http://www.ghacks.net/2013/10/20/mozilla-considers-switching-9-week-release-schedule/ just goes to show you that this 6 weeks release wAS TO SHORT IF THEY GO WITH A 9 WEEK RELEASE SCHEDULE 

 

Well, praise the lord!

 

For me, the ideal is a 12 week release cycle, 6 week cycle is ridiculous for a web browser when they can make minor updates whitout breaking nearly everything every 6 week

I haven't had a single "breakage" since they started the 6 week release cycle, even when using the beta releases.

 

+100

 

I used Firefox Nightly from when Nightly had version 6 (2nd week of it) till version 26 (last week of it). I does not faced that much severe issues as I faced in Chromium snapshots since version 27.

 

Current issue in Chromium 32+, NPAPI plugins sometime show Black screen while playing anything.

anyone else have issues with Twitter completely breaking on firefox since yesterday? (on beta branch btw)

will post a screenshot if needed when i get home tonight

yes, missing avatar images and sometimes completely broken pages. a new beta was just uploaded on their servers, hope this fixes it.

ok good, glad it wasn't just me. was rather annoying

will update tonight :)

Same issues, you people are not alone.... LOL!!!

 

OSCP Stapling is the root cause of issue...

So the root cause is some OCSP servers run by CAs don't provide fully valid responses, and the web servers are potentially using stale OCSP responses in the stapling and sending that to Firefox (Which then rejects it)

Edit: Or the CA response is valid, but servers just aren't checking for new responses soon enough.

Looks like Australis won't ship till March 2014, at least according to this site. Not really sure if it's accurate information.

Its from Platform Meetings or Delivery Notes... Both sources are credible...

what branch of firefox are you using? 

 

tried a New Profile? 

Firefox 24 Central.

 

I don't even know there are profiles...

 

I did however install Firebug. :ermm:

 

It's not that I don't like the new buttons, I just don't know why this happened. They used to be just borderless arrows, now they look chromish.

 

Could the persona I'm using have been updated and it changed the buttons?

No update for Firefox 24 out in few days, it could be that one of your theme or extension got update although since you mentioned Persona (new themes) updated but they are not meant to change FF buttons if I am not wrong. So I can think of only addon causing it.

 

Yes, you can make Firefox Profiles by going into run in Windows and typing this "firefox.exe -p" without quotes.

I can stand the lack of status bar, but rounded tabs are just ugly and doesn't fit at all IMO...

Mephisto, both links are for Windows 8

Why there are Cut Copy Paste buttons in Downloads menu?

Whoops. Fixed the first link

The windows 8 mockup looks really nice IMO. Magnitudes better than the current fx theme does in windows 8...

 

I don't know why the curved tabs bother people so much. Only the active tab is really curved, inactive tabs look nice and squared and blended into the background until you mouse over them.

Why there are Cut Copy Paste buttons in Downloads menu?

There's no proper status bar in the current release, hasn't been for a while.

And the Cut/Copy/Paste buttons aren't in the download menu, they're in the toolbar palette.

    • I think this will appeal to a lot of enthusiasts. If the thermals are similar to those of a single system in a compact case, many people running multiple systems may choose to combine them into one machine, provided the case footprint remains reasonable.
    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
