UPDATED ON: 2024-11-14 I just realized that there is no security tests in browser area, only performance related benchmarks. Today we shall fix that small gap with the help of [BrowserAudit] service. ► BROWSER SCORES BROWSER OK+ WARN! CRIT!

I used to think that the 18.x version was [the last to run on Windows 7] . And now I am glad to tell you that enthusiast hackers from Russia made quite a neat and generous thing to backport NodeJS 22 to Windows 7 environment. Such occurrence was super useful since i was already running into some limitations with [NodeJS 18] and was thinking about moving my project to the Linux environment.

WE ALL WANTED THAT, DIDN’T WE? [Tor Browser 14.X] based upon Firefox 128 ESR is finally hacked to work in Windows 7. Thanks flies out to valorous [Blaukovitch] !!!! Here is a safe [Mega.nz mirror] to preserve history as usual. Also you might be interesed in [original site] and [Github page] of the developer.

It has been a while since i posted web performance comparisons. So here it is in all it’s useless glory. Performance was measured by [JetStream] benchmark. Two machines were tested: low-end office computer and powerful workstation. ► Intel i3-3220/16Gb/IntelHD + Firefox 115.17 ESR RedFox 132 Chrome 109 Supermium 126 Score 54.896 65.033 80.217 90.038 Stdlib 0.566 0.638 0.920 0.777 MainRun 0.190 0.224 0.309 0.339 First 53.755 65.282 53.610 72.162 Worst 54.

Just a quick note to point out an interesting fact of computer history. Amd recently announced it’s server beast CPU [Epyc 9965] . Built in 3nm lithography, it supports 384 threads, a 12-channel memory controller and has a whopping 500W TDP. Windows 7 256 thread barrier is finally broken. As for an Intel, they are definitely can send their technology to the museum. Imagery by spacedrone808 @Adobe Imagery by spacedrone808 @Freepik

As a long-term user of Android OS i stacked up the most irksome peculiarities. They have been with us for ages, since version 1.0 to be exact. messed up separation between internal and external storage, which is not clear to a generic windows user, files are hard to find, applications save data randomly either on internal or external storage, logic pattern is definitely broken here incoherent and unclear notification system, with poor organization of priorities absence of transparent file handling, i am talking about file extension-application matching, there is no convenient tools to manage this task And it looks like google will never fix above mentioned facts.

In the last couple of years I dedicated most of my free time to self-learning the barebones of modern web technology, things like: HTML, CSS, JS, WEBPACK, PUG, various frameworks like Hugo and other web tech trickery. For those of you who are interested, here is my [Github page] . Who knows where the VScode will take me? I hope that these technologies will be a nice addition to my knowledge of raster & vector software, which I use as an [active microstocker] .

Bring your museum 4.7Mhz XT machine up to the performance of an AT 286 machine. In those days, productivity gains were measured in times, not the measly percentage units that currently are common practice in the marketing world today. Adrian has done a very interesting review of such a rare accelerator. Thanks fly out to him, enjoy! Imagery by spacedrone808 @Adobe Imagery by spacedrone808 @Freepik

No illusions here, because it is a pretty transparent question and you don’t have to be an overwhelmingly smart person to understand it. Here is a handy list of straight facts about why Linux will always be your secondary operating system and not your primary one: as of 2024 we have over 600 [!!!] distributions of Linux, just look at [distrowatch] Why do we need them all? plethora of desktop environments > 50 [if we count only major ones it will be close to 20] As if three variations were not enough?

I already marked stand-from-the-crowd [Neo Geo console] of the early 90s. Now it is time to mention a Japanese computer that is definitely made with love and effort, just look at it’s design!

You can say what you want, but the fact that the 90s is the golden age of the coolest SciFi is an undeniable fact. Despite its rather simple and somewhat childish plot, [FIFTH ELEMENT] raises quite important questions about human existence. From a design point of view, I like the fact that the movie mostly shows real decorations, not just soulless computer graphics, which certainly adds analog warmth to the movie.

UPDATED ON: 2024-10-16 If someone doesn’t like this kind of information, I will remove it immediately on first request without any questions. Since we have crossed the EOL line of Windows 7 POS support, I think no one will mind if I post the list of current activators for the Windows 7 operating system. As far as I know, we have four options to choose from: [DAZ loader] ► 108% working solution to activate distributions based upon classic MBR partition [KMS by Ratiborus] ► rearming software, which can activate GPT-based Pro and Enterprise editions [KMS rearm script] ► rearming scipt, which can activate GPT-based Pro and Enterprise editions [RemoveWAT] ► legacy GPT compatible activator [not maintained anymore] Also list of activators can be found on [this page] .

I think that [LOVE, DEATH AND ROBOTS] is quite overrated. Most of the episodes are true beauties in terms of drawing quality, but the plot leaves much to be desired in most cases. OFFICIAL TRAILER Here is a list of the most cool episodes by my standards. So you don’t have to waste your valuable time on obvious junk. ► Season 1 [Three Robots] ► Season 2 [Pop Squad] [Snow In The Desert] [All Through the House] [Life Hutch] ► Season 3

Yesterday was the last update aimed for Windows 7 POS devices. Comprehensive details can be found at [Ghacks] . Windows 7 is an operating system which already outlived Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Windows 11. Also i would like to point out some relevant Windows 7 pages for die-hard fans like myself.

As you may already know i am using [Windows 7 as a daily driver even in 2024] pretty much for everything. I think most of the sofa expert’s conclusions about Windows 7’s obsolescence are [out of touch with reality] . ACTUAL HARDWARE SETUP: 32-thread modern CPU 64Gb of DDR5 RAM fast NVME drive 24Gb of video memory WHO NEEDS MORE? Such hardware specs are achieved by [CanonKong’s modern chipset driver] .

It looks like we have reached the very last driver for the Nvidia 3XXX series of graphics cards. They promised that the final revision of the driver will see the light of day in late September. As of early October, the latest version of the driver is [v475.14] , released on July 9. But I have a feeling that Nvidia will release another very final version later on, if this is true I’ll update post accordingly.

¶ INTRO WORDS Numbers, numbers, numbers … i say NUMBERS!!!! It’s been a while since i ran into the craze of pointless benchmarks. And now I’m back with the absolute procrastination stuff. Are you happy with this? Take a note that 3DMark 03, 3DMark 05, 3DMark 06, 3DMark Vantage [2007], 3DMark 2011 and 3DMark 2021 are not marked by ▒ sign, showing the fact that these programs lost the soul of demoscene and just providing comparison numbers, nothing else.

First of all, I’d like to note that this post is not an advertisement and it is not sponsored, I’m just REALLY impressed by software and decided to share this lucky find with all of you. Actual Window Manager has quite boring and generic naming, but in reality it is highly advanced and modern window manager that offers broad functionality combined with 90’s quality. Adding this software to your arsenal it’s like entering cheat-code for superpowers.
