too many YT videos where cards like mine are treated like an IBM punch card machine

I think you should stop watching those videos

Seriously, cards of that generation are still perfectly good GPUs, and able to run most games at decent quality. The last AAA game I played on the 970 was AC Valhalla, I had to tune some settings down but otherwise it was more than good enough for 1080p at 40-60fps which is fine.

And there's literally thousands of great new games out there that can be played just fine with these cards.

The whole top-line GPU market is mostly just BS anyway - the performance gain is not that great compared to the insane prices asked. I guess the whole market relies on "leet gamer" "whales" with way too much disposable income, who are willing to pay whatever the vendors ask to brag about their card, and the insane CS fps junkies who think that their eyes are even able to detect the difference between 120 and 240hz...

Back in 2015 when I got the 970 I did play games where GPU performance was important. These days I mostly play turn-based hex war games - that could run fine on a Pentium probably

@pathduck: The prices are insane and I agree with your analysis. OTOH I'd like something faster for dabbling with Blender... one day... if I were a rich man... Ya ba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dibba dum

@endorphin75: I had a ZX81, then a Spectrum +2, so anything above 2fps feels like a win to me

I remember having a blast on my C64 playing Driller, 1 frame per second 3D shooter

Still hoping for a Friday Snapshot, but I suspect the video issues might be tricky to fix...

I installed Chrome 110.0.5481.78 and the same there. Same in Edge 110.0.1587.41 and Chromium 110.0.5481.78.

@vulture true. That was a bug and has now been fixed.

In the picture on the left - 5.6.2867.58, in the picture on the right - 5.7.2921.29
Why is the status bar higher? Error in CSS?

Error in CSS?

No, to fit larger icons.

What are "larger icons"?
Are the icons in the address bar "larger icons"?
Here I added - the situation is the same, in the last assembly the status line is much higher.

@Capushon It's to fit custom buttons. See:
vivaldi://experiments/

If you don't like it:

/* Skinnier statusbar */
#browser footer .toolbar-statusbar {
    height: 20px;
}
#browser footer .toolbar-statusbar button {
    height: 18px;
}
.toolbar-statusbar .override.button-icon {
	width: 100%;
	height: 100%;
}

And no the larger Status Bar is not a bug.
