If you don't need to handle PDF's within your browser, TBC, consider giving Brave browser a try. I would use it in preference to all the other browsers I've tried (all of them - you name it) if it handled PDF's natively the way Opera & Chrome do. Brave has been the quickest I've used, with flawless page rendering everywhere I've gone, but that PDF Achilles heel led me to use Opera for my daily driver since my workflow involves handling & printing PDF's within the browser &

Apple made some strange choices with the iOS11 UI, particularly the fonts, which are fugly. I used to routinely jailbreak my iPhone to take advantage of alternative fonts, up through about iOS8, but what was once relatively easy & straightforward is now anything but, if it can be done at all. The most recent JB is for 10.2 and is only semi-tethered. Apple has steadily gained an insurmountable advantage in the spy-vs-spy game they play with the JB

Does "having read a post" constitute "having participated in?" Just trying to get the new iconography pinned down. Thanks. And I'm coming around on the bolding thing and agree with BSDM.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="15" id="3696291"] Instead of bolding the font we put an icon on the left and we eliminated the display of an icon if it's simply a post you've never participated in before to clean that up. The two areas we are looking into: 1. Showing the avatar of the person who posted the post 2. Showng the avatar of the last response Plus, tooltips. [/quote] Thanks for the explanation. I get the code now.

Well, I hope Brad is pleased with the changes. But the significant decrease in useful information available at a glance is a little disappointing. There may also be at least one bug - posts with new replies since my last login no longer appear in boldface. FTR, I only visit JU. RE: The Subscribe/Email checkboxes - Subscribe is now unchecked here*, but Email remains checked. IIRC, the behavior you designate in your profile overrides those per-post opti

Perhaps it's just me. Within the past week, msn.com has started refusing to load the home page graphic interface when it detects an ad-blocker. Same browser, but 2 different rigs. Access to the graphic interface is immediately restored by disabling ad-blocking, even though the site doesn't say that's the problem, just gives a generic comment about some plugin or extension 'interfering' with msn.com. Not big whup. MSN exists only so I can study how the

The best option by far is to download the current installer .exe's from your Stardock Store download page to your new computer once up & running & install them fresh. You'll need to reconfigure your preferences, but a clean install is the way to go. In fact, download all the Object Desktop installers to your new computer in a location set up for that purpose - you never know when you might want to try some of the apps you don't currently use. Be su

You can (as I understand it) activate an existing version of the software after the subscription expires (should only need to if you have to reinstall it) by using the account creds as RND describes. If an existing installation is actually offering a pop-up announcing a new version after the sub has expired, there may be a bug that SD should look at. I can perfectly understand proceeding with the update installation if it was prompted as this scenario suggests, which
