Firefox

Corpsecorps commented on 17 Feb 2012

Personally I think this new version numbering/release schedule bit is stupid.

Anyway, I loaded up Firefox 10.0.2 and it has forgotten all 20 or so tabs I had open in the previous session with 9.0.x.

Version 1.3.x has addressed NONE of the issues encountered in earlier versions regarding problems with erroneous changing of spaces when dragging tabs from windows, the bizarre way windows display in multiple steps on startup or relaunch, the too frequent crashes, etc.

I'd like to like it.

Workspaces malfunction. Tools and Paint keep disappearing so I have to keep clicking on my workspace or picking them in the menu to get them back.

If I click the green window maximizer in OS X, then the windows subsequently act as if there is a second toolbar at the top whether there is or not, so no windows can be moved up. Toolbars can be added but only in the third and lower position. Open windows are forced down.

Restarting the application does not correct the problem. Only resetting the app to factory workspace setting restores function.

My ripper of choice until recently. Lately many ISO rips turn out unplayable junk. I actually see what looks like encrypted data in the preview as it's attempting the rip.

Infrequently when I bring up the menu, "Finder" will be the only thing at the bottom, after which I get approximately 2 seconds of pinwheel, and Finder crashes.

Haven't used it for a little while and now it wont upload to the web site.

When I visit the web site, it takes ages to get any particular page to come up.

TotalFinder will allow additions to the sidebar, but NOT removal!

Has started working. Reason unknown. The whole app seems rife with unpredictable behaviors.

TotalFinder

Has never ceased to be unstable (crashes after a day or so of regular use) or to have rendering problems. The NVidia 8800 GT is the best graphics card for a Mac Pro 1,1 and when Finder starts up, windows flicker into place, first rendering as incorrectly sized boxes with title bars in the wrong place, then quickly re-rendering correctly.

Pieces of windows flicker into or out of existence as I change Spaces.

Attempting to drag a tab from a window causes a random transition to another Space after which there's nothing shown under the mouse pointer until I let the button off. Then the new single tab window appears, but is now in some random space instead of the one I began the drag in.

5770 on a Mac Pro 1,1?! I don't think so.

I tried a Radeon 3870. It was a piece of crap. Regularly caused havoc with the system. When I tried it with windoze under Bootcamp, the ran ran full tilt 100% of the time.

Transmission

Corpsecorps had trouble on 22 May 2011

Typical!

I've downloaded almost half of a huge torrent. Lots of peers with almost nothing downloaded, and a few seeders.

If I wish I can download at a horrendous rate from seeders and kill my ratio quick because little goes out, but instead I make my upload maximum huge and my download tiny in order to maintain ratio.

Yet Transmission won't upload to more than one or two leechers. Mouseover shows two main situations. They're interested but transmission won't upload to them, or transmission will upload but they aren't interested.

If I've got half of the data, they have little, and my upload rate is huge, why won't Transmission upload to them?

It's been ages since I've run across a video where the frame advance keys would actually advance the frame.
