Googles "chrome" browser has issues

Post by Piledriver »

It doesn't refresh right when typing, and doesn't save what you enter reliably for some reason. It also seems to be stuck in overwrite mode.

I realize this is NOT STFs issue, just documenting it.
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

According to Yahoo news (wonder why they would be interested, hmm?), Chrome has some interesting language in the terms of service agreement.

Searches and history are "essential" to Chrome's operation, and therefore will be done by the browser, wanted or not.

Automatic updates downloaded and installed, wanted or not.

Perpetual, Irrevocable, Worldwide Rights (since amended)

*and*

Each Chrome browser has a unique ID number, and, big suprize, all activity is reported back to SkyNet.........er, Google........on that ID number.

All this means...............they are watching you. :shock:

Happy surfing!
So you think your project is taking forever eh? Well you've got nothing on me.....

Google has a long way to go before the average person considers them evil (they are in the same industry as Microsoft and Adobe)
Yeah some may call it overkill, but you can't have too much overkill.
