That’s an easy one… your sense of judgment stinks.


In that case make sure you plug a colostomy bag to your browser to verify people's judgement about you :P :P :P

Well you can make it any F key you want. Just make it one key not 2 simultaneous keys. All you need to do is then tell your users what the F key shortcuts do.

F11 is a Chromium standard.

Well I'm already using F1..F6 for user macros (did you even discover those?), and F7...F12 are currently vacant.

Bottom line is... there is no right or wrong answer to these things Paphitis.


Every browser (on windows at least) uses F11 as the "Full Screen" button. It is a basic interface usability principle that you should follow common conventions unless there is a very good reason not to. So there is a right answer: F11 should be the key for "Full Screen".

That is the wrong question. The right question is

Is this piece of unknown to me code more likely to not have 'malware' in it if it has a certificate than if it does not have any such certificate ? The answer is yes it is more likely to not have malware if it has such a certificate. You can choose to pay in order to be able to present your code as less likely to contain malware or not as you wish and that is for you a deal and you can take it or leave it. For me there is no deal involved, there is just the probabilities that a given piece of unknown to me code does or does not have malware in it.


So it is not enough that he is wasting his time you want him to start wasting his money so that he can get 1 more person (you) to try his browser for 5 minutes and then delete it? Do you think he is THAT stupid? :lol:

Well if ALL browsers have some keyboard consensus then I’d consider changing to it… if anyone knows what it is.

Who gave you the right to learn what anyone's operating system is, at which folder in his computer it was installed etc etc??
There are computers that install in usersName/Programs.
The folder in my computer regarding USERS has my REAL NAME.
Do you think I would ever be stupid enough to download your browser?


That is the kind of info you give on every website you visit (and more than that actually) so that doesn't prove that GR is doing anything bad. That said, he COULD do something bad if he wanted to. The question is: Do you trust GR? An even more important question is: Why bother? Maybe Google is spying on everybody, but in return Google gives us high quality products and services. There is no motivation in using GRs browser when there are so many way better browsers out there.

I think you’ve already demonstrated your poor sense of judgment sufficiently Pyro, by misinterpreting many things you read here and misleading yourself into all sorts of false beliefs.

My browser’s integrity is second to none, and whether I get +5 or -5 users from the CF won’t make much of a difference to my life.

I don’t expect any different from “home”… been there before… and you may recall from the Jesus stories you most likely studied at primary school, that he was welcomed everywhere he went with one exception; Nazareth his home.

When he went to preach in Nazareth they treated him like shit because they all knew him from the time he was a child. Typical human nature…

I concur the web browser data and IP Address etc is just standard information that is captured by every site in AW Stats.

It's by no means a measure of anyone's integrity or a deliberate attempt to collect data.

The accusations are ridiculous.

Is welshing on a bet a measure of someone's integrity ? ;)

Is a chronic grievance over an imaginary win, a measure of someone's integrity? :?

Chronic grievance - i have refereed to your welshing twice since you welshed back in 2016. Chronic.

Erol just after making and agreeing the bet with GR wrote:As for the idea that GR would welch on a publicly made bet should he loose, heavens forbid. I am sure he is an honourable man of his word. Even were such an unlikely event to occur I am sure I would get my 100 euros worth of value eventually just being able to remind him of having done so on here for years to follow :)


imaginary win - cyprus44835-210.html?hilit=loose#p843265

And you still miss the point. I am not the one asking people to run some code I have written on their machines such that they may wish to consider 'is this person trustworthy'
