My lady and I have been together longer than many marriages I know of.
Not sure what to do with that info, but it just occurred to me and… it’s kinda weird.

Fixed.

Also, how long? My wife and I have been married coming up on 13 years, and 13 years does not feel like that long.

There are many people whose marriages don’t last, but I’m not sure it says as much about us for keeping it together as it does about them for forgetting what those vows actually meant.

My wife and I have been through some serious excrement together over the years, much of it probably worthy of the Emotional Support thread, but I’ve had to tell her more than once in the middle of it all that the best day of my life was not the day our daughter was born, but the day I married her.

FireFox 57.0 (64bit) on Windows 7 seems to be the worst update to that browser i have ever applied. Locks up ~2 minutes after opening, no matter what.

^Really? Interesting. I’ve found Firefox near unusable for over 5 years, at least compared to Chrome, but Quantum on Mac OS so far is by and large a huge improvement. Hope it’s a small glitch and they fix it soon.

I’d like to switch from Chrome mainly because the older I get, the less I trust their data mining. It could be said of anywhere online though, to be honest, but Google knows… everything.

56.0 has been freezing up for me using Ebay and Facebook to the point even closing those tabs doesn’t help anymore.

Firefox has had memory leakage issues for the past few updates for me.

Didn’t know we had so many Firefox users here.

Firefox Quantum? That looks like the Firefox 58 Beta I’ve been using. However, I still have the memory leak issue.

I use all the browsers except for Opera. It’s a lot easier to dedicate a different browser to a different monitor than it is to try to manage to any other way. at least for me.

i could, but it’s easier my way. browser will open last place it was open. your way is too much window management.

Too much window management? No such thing. 😉

Some of the friendly faces around here haven’t been so friendly lately. Lots of grouchiness. On the other hand, some people have changed over the years from friendly to cynical, sarcastic smart-you-know-whats. So sudden grouchiness and gradual grouchiness are coming to a head. Extra grouchiness all around.

'Tis the season. Happens every year.
I’ve actually been in a fairly pleasant mood lately. Maybe only compared to the silly bitchiness I’ve been surrounded by, but I’ll take what I can get!

Really glad our forum is not on facebook. One group I mostly lurk in lost a historically valuable bunch of posts from someone who worked on Kubrick’s films, because the OP apparently nuked their post and that sucked all the replies down the drain with it. And apparently no way to get them back.

And yet they thought you sane enough to make you a mod over at FE apparently.

That’s uncomfortably close to a personal attack.
