path too deep

Oh and you belive everything you read, do you?

(I'm pretty sure the linux version doesn't have it built in. And that's the last version I installed (a mere two days ago). But fair enough)

(it's a good thing, though. I mean, youtube and that. It's pretty necessary until html5 kicks in)

I don't know, can you answer that question and I'll tell you.

I thought so. Can you tell that other guy that wanted to know.

Have you tried latest Opera yet?

Faster rendering than Chrome it has, in some situations (can't remember details, just a pretty graph showing them with insigificant differences most times, and Opera significantly ahead on a couple. IE and Firefox lagging behind, as expected) (graph created by work colleague with some automation software, against a smallish sample (pages from one website). )

I use a Flashblock thingy called, amazingly, FlashBlock. It works very well.

Sorry about that, fuckin giant bag headed stickman man!

I can indeed confirm! It's of a nice size now :) Sorry if I sounded like a right arse.

Thanks! No you didn't, I was just confused because it wasn't *horrible* looking to me. But after seeing what you saw I can understand what you were saying!

Not tried Opera for a while. They always seem to want to load an essentially decent browser down with loads of shitty gimmicks rather than just iron out the remaining quirks of their rendering engine.

I always tend to live Opera though. Until I find that one site that I use a lot and which fucks Opera over completely. Then I sigh and ditch it.

But yeah, like I say, for rendering we've really reached the point where all browsers are fast enough so I don't really care. I'm more bothered about the speed to open a new tab and how responsive the UI and stuff is.

Ok just tried it and... what the hell. It looks almost identical to Chrome (the UI, I mean).

Well I've just cleaned out my laptop because most of my responsivity issues are down to overheating. A 90°C CPU and Laptop aren't good for sitting on your lap. Now the fan actually cools the CPU because the brick of dust blocking the air exit has now gone :$

 

If FF still gets unresponsive on me I'll give Chrome a go.

I don't hold with those newfangled narrative technologies. What's wrong with minstrels?

Unreasonable wage demands.

And the time taken off work consequent upon the minstrel cycle.
