Off Topic 2017: December to Remember

Re: Off Topic 2017: Facebook Meets Off Topic

OMG FIREFOX WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!

I'm so not feeling this update

only things that bug me so far are the change in favorites or whatever they're called when you start a new tab, and the refresh button shifting over to the left.

I just noticed it in the app, didn't realize this also mean PC as well. Today my computer updated and I don't like the new look. Speed wise maybe everything is better, but look wise it took a hit. I had a custom theme no longer compatible with Firefox, and now the scrollbar is basically just grey like it would be on a generic/default browser. Background colors for everything is basically grey or white now which sucks. I liked my old predominantly black theme.

I also noticed some stuff in my settings like Site Data(under privacy and settings) where sites store some data on your computer. I never noticed that before, and I checked it to find sites I don't even remember visiting(or just haven't visited in months) are listed there. I don't save cookies(minus few exceptions such as this site and others I log in to), so surprised to see all this saved on my computer. I also got 350mb of cached files in my browser, but don't know which sites are part of it.

Speaking of horribly looking updates, this new tapatalk update might be the worst one visually they've done.

Trying to hold off on FF57 for as long as I can. It's a major overhaul and they get rid of a lot of extensions because of the way their new add-on system works. A lot of customization has to be done with "CSS" files and I have no real idea how that works. A lot of stuff changes. And the guys on the Firefox Reddit are dicks if you ask for help with it.

So I don't know. I don't really feel like losing functionality and UI for some speed boost, but I guess it's only a matter of time until I have to.

I can't remember the last time a major design overhaul was good. They're almost always awful, and contrary to what people say, I almost never get used to or "stop noticing" the new style.

Well.....I dropped my tablet on the kitchen floor last night. "sigh" I hope it can be repaired for a reasonable price or I will have to buy a new one. The problem is I have over 400 podcasts on Podcast Republic. I dunno if I can even remember half the pods I have listed.

turkey vs ham
I'd rather have turkey for thanksgiving AND christmas instead of ham for christmas
but I always lose that proposal. to me the ham we get is just too salty. the turkey haters in my family say turkey is too dry but I can put enough gravy on to fix that.

Welp, time for me to do some comparison shopping online and go to a brick and mortar store tomorrow. The LED is all kaput on my tablet. I guess the upside is that it's on one of the biggest sales periods of the year.

Re: Off Topic 2017: Facebook Meets Off Topic

I miss having a phone with text buttons, everyone said I'd get used to typing on a touch screen but it hasn't happened, still drives me crazy, I find myself using messengers on my computer and rarely typing to anyone when away from home

I'm so Garth

I'm good without buttons. I did like the sliding keyboards, though.

So there's apparently a moose on the loose in suburban Toronto. They showed footage of it on my local 11:00 news.

I heard there was a tiger on the loose in Paris recently as well, think it was yesterday.
