what is the best/recommended browser these days? I still use firefox, but it is resource intensive, and I know it keeps locking up on my parents' pc. also, is it easy to import bookmarks, history, passwords, etc. to this new browser from firefox? I don't have to redo everything, right? also, can I have my bookmarks in a sidebar like firefox? I prefer it that way, since they're easy to access. thanks.

I'm using Edge. Came with the lap. Can't say I like it though, but it does have an option to use other search engines, like DuckDuckGo. I might try that.

I also have Chrome as a stand by.

I put my parents on edge as a temporary fix, but it may turn into a permanent one considering my dad only uses it for ebay or to search on google. it may not be worth using a new browser after he just learned how to use this one.

I use Brave. I used to use Firefox but the ads slowly turned me off of it. I also used Chrome but I didn’t like the resource usage at the time and I don’t like the Google tether.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
