RE: What is your Weather? :)Lounge
Heavy snow and blizzard yesterday! Around -10, and I went for a walk!
Now it's everything white this morning, flakes, near station says -12°C.
Uh! this picture posted here today: -
RE: Private tabSuggestions and feature requests
Google Chrome has a possibility to show a service window (pop-up) as a tab. Plus anyway, nuOpera has a separate process for each tab, so I can't see too many obstacles to show a private browsing window as a tab by default, or like having a setting about that: in Ole Opera, there is a setting how to show pop-ups, for example.

What is your Weather? :)Lounge
In this thread, we're expected to share if it's raining, or hot, or whatever in the place we live/are.
Also it's allowed to discuss relative issues, like generally, how people should feel in various conditions. Let's touch something lateral, too -- like what our climate/conditions should be like/used to be, etc. -
RE: Private tabSuggestions and feature requests
Why this would be useful: Sometimes you just want to do something that does not save cookies, history etc, but don't want to open a new window. If you want to browse private totally for a while, private windows can be good, but if you just want to quickly open a tab, private tabs are better.
You forgot it doesn't take extra space in the system taskbar. Which looks tidier, especially if you have already got quite a bunch of tasks running there.

This show is sponsored by Opera NSA!
Accounts linkage is useful, but I personally prefer it being a voluntary act.

RE: Spam advertisementLounge
General, one should always check the URL when "offered" or asked to submit any personal information, at least when it seems unusual. I do.
I even check the URLs each time I enter my bank account online.
EACH time. Just in case a piece of malware should all of a sudden appear somewhere trying to redirect. Thing is, there are cons trying to mask their pages as something else: bad people can replicate the layout and such, but the browser will always show you the URL - heed it.
A little while ago, with my Firefox there was a redirect to a "Mozilla upgrade offer", but the URL was not of Mozilla's. I had trouble to close the page/tab, managed to only do that with my system Task Manager; then I reopened the browser, found that wrong URL in the history, and reported it. You should do the same -
RE: Non-Official Opera browser feature surveySuggestions and feature requests
I answered.
But most were not important, some I didn't understand. Something important wasn't there. Like that I could play videos without stuttering: it's not a feature, but it's an inherited Chromium problem; WebKit Midori does not have any stuttering trouble, at all.
I mean it's important to me so that I could make Opera my main browser. Because otherwise, it's fast, loads and renders most sites easily... Any minor customisation problems are outshined by that.
So I mean the main (and only as of right now) thing is for the browser to handle all the content WWW can offer.
(I mean, well. My computer is a bit aged, but other browsers handle the content in question, right? Opera doesn't. This is the problem.) -
Little BugsForum feedback
This is the
La Pinnata
thread. :minion: Let's catch them all! :devil:There were notifications shown today. Twenty-something.
First, if there are some (new), there's a red blob with a number next to the menu button top right. But the blob doesn't seem to be clickable.
I did navigate to the notifications. It showed 55 pages of it, every single one "dated" "21 days ago". After I left there though, it seemed to "dissolve" -- in a sense that there was a new notification and it appeared like "from scratch" - "1" in the blob. The blob remained unclickable though.Second, I posted some, and at a time an "Error" popup popped up saying that I'm "as a new user" etc. -- about 120 seconds, you know. This is a bug - because I'm not a new user, whatever restrictions I'm liable to.
(Here the thing with the badges might have helped - if we had those. On the "old" forum (my OLD isMY OPERA
"old", so someone here's "old" is not THAT old - rather previous) I did suggest that "monkeys" were to be released from at least most drastic restrictions; here now, I could suggest we have some stati, probably referring to our joining dates (mine - on MyOpera - is like year 2006, no poop).)

RE: Why Use Opera?Lounge
@blackbird71 said in Why Use Opera?:
It's design mantra was...
"Its"?
And it's free!
Mandela's free!
Well, I use Opera 36 for some casual browsing, too. Because it's neat and very comfortable to scroll and handle.
But not only that casual, some tasks of business because it feels secure. TS360 integrated. -

RE: What is your Weather? :)Lounge
Twilight for days now. Dirty ~0 quasi-winter with the swimming brown splashy road in the banks of whiteish soggy snow thawing up the mud. Chilly 90+ humid wind strong not with its sheer force but with a corpsy boggish mortuary touch creeping up under your skin into your soul, freezing joy of life out of you. Nice picture?

RE: Why Use Opera?Lounge
As the above speaker pointed out.
Opera as trademark is a legacy legend. It's like a rare motorbike or an exquisite cigar, or a cognac of a very few bottles in the world. It's like belonging to an esteemed closed gang, Illuminati or something:) It's like Kandinski with everybody else enjoying pop-art:), Classic Rock versus Singing Carpets. Duncan McLeod versus phony Santa at the mall. The beloved Teddy for a 5y girl versus every other toy in the world. The ultimate pride I've been part of. - Lounge
