Firefox has released a radical update of their browser. I just downloaded it and have come across a good feature. You can take a custom screenshot (or several) and save them in the browser, download them, share them, etc. So I'm trying something here. I took a screenshot of part of an article I was reading and I'm going to post it here (there is a sharable link). By the way, this article is hilarious. There is someone that is trying to get a school to change their mascot for a hilarious reason. So anyway without further ado here is my screenshot

deadspin.com


Well, that didn't work with the image paste so lets just try the link

Screenshot: ⁨Utah Parent Wants School Mascot Renamed Because It Sounds Like The Word Penis⁩

Anyway, download the new Firefox, it seems pretty cool and it's faster than the old one.

We need a technology forum for threads like this.

I thought we had one besides the message board area for Jordan. Didn't we?

Quantum is the Biggest Mozilla Update ever.

They changed 75% of the Source Code (7 Million lines)
This Version needs a lot Less Ram (0,5 GB) than the last Version (2,0 GB)
so they opended more than 1690 Tabs and Firefox still worked.

FF Updated again.

Check your Settings !

Wow, became more faster again !!

Now, it`s better than Chrome !!

Cool, I'll check it out. Quantum works great on my work laptop. On my desktop at home though, I get about 15-20 minutes excellent performance before it locks up my entire PC from hogging all the memory. Let's see if this update helps.

The last Update changed some Settings.
FF saves Passwords and Usernames for example, you have to check your Settings
Okay - I'll go do that. At the moment I logged in here today using Chrome.

I liked the way we used to be able to delete selected cookies - now it seems like you just clear all the history at once, so if I do that, then I have to log into SKMB again. (no biggie)

Do you used a ADD -On to remove the Cookies ?
Maybe you have to Install it again. Had to Re-Install my ADD Blocker and some other Add-ons
