Seconded.

Although, I do kinda miss my add-ons :(.

Yea, I have google chrome, and I miss the add ons, but I love how when you right click on things, open in new tab is first on the list.

I still haven't gotten used to that. :P

I like Incognito windows though.

I finally installed Dead Space on my comp, fuck, this game is just like Resident Evil 4, minus the small flaws that kept it from being perfect. Speaking of which, brb, gotta change my diaper :D

The Flash players at Myspace/Kongregate only run in Safari for me - not in Firefox - somewhat proving that at least that aspect is more robust.

I keep using Firefox for a few reasons though:
1) I prefer the way I can type a snippet of the name, starting anywhere, for it to be autocompleted (rather than having to start at the beginning of the address).
2) I find it marginally convenient to be able to type stuff straight into the address bar and have the browser automaticaly do a google search. I admit that typing in a different window would just be a minor matter of changing habits.
3) I already have a ton of bookmarks saved and search toolbars (can't remember their proper name).

the thing is, google chrome can do all this and more.

and its faster.

also it looks nicer.

plus you can transfer your bookmarks.

in continuance the source code viewer is better than firefox and the HTML editor is better than firebug.

to continue when you right click to view images it automatically opens up a new tab for it

finally the fact that it does a google search isn't the only thing it can do. you can also program it to search via other search sites. i think this is a big step for google instead of limiting their auto searcher to only them.

switch now.

I would actually try it, but after checking 5 seconds ago, I found it's still Windows only and I use OSX.

You can get the developer build to mess around with.

Keep in mind its not complete.

i know most of you will ignore this, but for the one or two that might be interested (i don't want to do a user blog post thingy till i'm actually completed)

yaaaay, using flex profiler my custom written distance function is 39% faster than my best AS3 one, even without full method inlining yet.

function dis_abc(a:Point,b:Point):Number
{
	__asm_clear();
	
	__asm("max_stack 4",
		  "local_count 3",
		  "scope_depth 0",
		  
		  "getlex Math",
		  
		  "getlocal_2",
		  "getproperty x",
		  "getlocal_1",
		  "getproperty x",
		  "subtract",
		  "dup",
		  "multiply",
		  
		  "getlocal_2",
		  "getproperty y",
		  "getlocal_1",
		  "getproperty y",
		  "subtract",
		  "dup",
		  "multiply",
		  
		  "add",
		  "callproperty sqrt 1",
		  
		  "returnvalue");
	
	__asm_end();
	return 0;

39% faster than:

function dis_as3(a:Point,b:Point):Number
{
	const dx:Number = b.x-a.x;
	const dy:Number = b.y-a.y;
	return Math.sqrt(dx*dx+dy*dy);
}

so what exactly are you trying to accomplish as a whole in all these little snippets of code you're giving us?

like what are these all for?

for making faster running code in AS3 basicly.

So there'll be no lag in our game?

so... the bottom code is AS3 and the top is your custom code? I don't know AS3 so I can't tell either way...
