Yeah - and they went back to the tabs with blue stripes at the top - I was sorry to see that go many years back.

It does seem fast. My only complaints are that the new tab doesn't have the tiles I prefer, I lost my skins program to customize the look, and more importantly, I lost 2 video downloaders on the new version.

The biggest surprise, however, was that the project, named Tofino, will not use Firefox's core technology – Gecko – but will instead plumb for Electron, which is built on the technology behind Google's Chrome browser, called Chromium.

And there's the reason. OK, it works for Google, because they know how to work it. Having had my fun with GitHub - cefsharp/CefSharp: .NET (WPF and Windows Forms) bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework I wasn't particularly impressed, especially when Chrome updated its browser and it broke CefSharp running in a window on the client software. Sure, updating the CefSharp build fixed it right away, but really? Why are the two even entangled?

So, there's FM going on in Google, and I wouldn't trust Firefox to have provided all the right ingredients in the witches brew and said all the correct incantations with the right pronunciation and inflections.

Alright.. my guess.. not 100% sure, but...

consanguinity = related by blood = a close affinity

con = against
sanguin = sanguine without the end = blood red
it = "it girl" = sexy in text-speak ??
y = question

god knows where the herald fits in...

Pete O'Hanlon17-Nov-17 0:59

Well done sir, well done indeed.

The herald part fits in because sanguine (as blood red) comes from heraldry.
