Heart Of Gold 💛 🚀 🐋 🌺

@guigirl I was hoping to finally have a moment for plugging in all the simple protocols in kiwmi , but now I have to be studying how the situation around Servo is these days

(PS: sorry about the higher concentration of emojis, I’m enjoying that I finally can use rofimoji in kiwmi )

Edit: Oh, shut up Mozilla; I know why I don’t want to use your browser.

Another one bites the dust

Exactly. But that's not the full quote, I edited the post a bit (it's been 5 years, not 4, 2016 I ditched Firefox when Vivaldi was in a better shape to be used as the main browser) and added this

"It pains me returning to the point I was when Chropera abandoned me, but times do change (for the worst) and in my book privacy comes first, then features. And Firefox has improved a lot compared to what it was back then."

Vivaldi was really unfortunate falling in that transitional period of Firefox's code rewriting, and one can say Chromium code was (and maybe still is) more clean and efficient so they would have chosen it anyway, but unless Vivaldi seriously improves in the privacy department in these dark (goo-gel) times they are going to lose even more privacy-sensitive people.

@guigirl I've tried brow.sh in the past, it was quite limited and a bit broken I think (not more than elinks nevertheless which had its problems with other languages) , but maybe it has improved now. nyxt looks quite nice! Never heard of it before.

@potmeklecbohdan said in Heart Of Gold :

(nyxt is my next favourite).

Though it says it supports extensions written in Common Lisp , not lua, wouldn't that be a problem to you?

They are there just when I need to follow a link / click a button etc with the keyboard. Thanks to them I can do so by simply looking at the relevant element’s number & writing it.

yep quite handy for those that use the keyboard explicitly.

It’s true that lua is probably easier to learn, but it’s fairly weird as well (especially if I want to write 5.1-, hence JIT-, -compatible code). So I don’t think adding lisp to the list of languages I kinda know would be too hard. (& there’s something cool about its syntax, though I can’t remember what… could it be the parentheses?)

(Which I still haven’t fully learned, but it’s much better already. I only miss vim-like interaction with text fields, as moving my hand to arrows is too much work.)

I'm really sorry but, once again, I'm lost and confused by the elusive vocabulary you're frequently using on this forum. I make a lot of efforts, I sometimes need to read your posts many times to understand the profound meaning of your messages but... again I'm sorry, it goes way too far.
Bizarre numbers/equations, abbreviations, slang language, Strayan's incomprehensible wordings, lots of references to ancient works that were probably famous or interesting for a bunch of geeky-elitist intellectuals... Too much for me. Too difficult. I'm tired of it.
Did you forget English isn't my mother tongue?

@Ornorm said in Vivaldi 3.8 RC 1 – Vivaldi Desktop Browser snapshot 2259.25/27:
Yooop!

Did I gotcha? Just a little bit?
If so, I'm truly (really) sorry.

I will back off

Based on the last posts and discussions you've had with outsiders, I can say I'm afraid it comes true...

[Ornorm]

@guigirl Wow! Sorry about the worries.
It was weird. Really weird.
Did you also see that Nope, just giving love! message? What was that?
I did find fingers moving on my keyboard and on my mouse frantically like a spider on its web wrapping its prey.
But it went away now. It should all be back to normal now.

So, I saw a mix of (beware, horror show!) :

@guigirl said in Bookmarks should be saved to the bottom of the folder's list, now it's upside down:

Great, finally a browser designed for the antipodes. Down here, we've waited for so long...

Try with https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/53763/heart-of-gold/9999
You can add a Task as a reminder to update that number to 99999 later because I suppose this thread will last long

Over 2000 posts in less than half a year, might need to set an earlier date for that reminder to increase that number...

[Ornorm]

@nomadic Woooooow... you're right.

We're really exaggerating here.
But, a heart of gold is the best gold min(e)d.

@guigirl I’ve already been using s6 for some months…

[hlehyaric]

Here:

it's about 1 - 1.5 seconds. That's a lot of time.

[Ayespy]

@hlehyaric Here, it's .75 sec which, apparently, is also "a lot of time." It's faster than normal human perception/reaction time, but it's "a lot of time." OK.

[Stardust]

In a browser world everything that > 0.1 sec is slow
PS: I didn't read that thread

[Ayespy]

@Stardust The action that's being reported is the creation of a new window by dragging a tab.

[Stardust]

@Ayespy

It's pretty fast for me. Maybe it's slow on the old hardware...

[Ayespy]

@Stardust Compared to Edge or Chrome, which create the new window as you are beginning the drag, instantaneously, any time elapsed at all would be called "slow" by gamers and others who have to have every action taken against any control generate a result with literally zero time elapsed. Vivaldi could do it too, if only it didn't have its own non-native UI.
