I was using Chrome as my standard browser for quite a while. but several months ago, they came out with a version that doesn't handle my Logitech Performance MX mouse properly. I love that mouse, especially the forward/back thumb buttons, which I use all the time when searching for information o the web.
But these buttons started failing on some web pages, or maybe I should say on some page retrievals. Once a page is fetched, and the buttons fail, I know of nothing that will make them operate again (like refresh page or going to another page and back. If I navigate to another page, buttons might work perfectly on that page. However, it seems to be unrelated to the page contents: If I quit the browser and restart it, maybe the buttons now work fine on the first page, but fail on the second one. Besides, buttons fail on at least half of the pages I open; I refuse to believe that that many pages contain bad HTML or Javascript.
Another bug that occurs far less frequently: I discovered it a while later, but suspect that it was introduced at the same time. Every now and then, especially if I return to a previous page, the mouse wheel will not scroll the contents up or down - not until I have grabbed the vertical scroll bar and moved it at least a small step. That cures the mouse wheel, at least until I navigate to another page.
I experience the same both at my home computer and my office computer. I have the same model mouse both places. Appearently, few others are bothered by these bugs; that is why I suspect Chrome is incapable of handling this mouse properly. No other software (such as Firefox, IE or non-Internet applications) shows any problems with the mouse. If there was a hardware fault, chances are very small that they would occur in two places at the same time, and affect oone single software product. The same goes for a driver fault: Why would Chrome be the only software affected by it? (and a year ago, it was not!)
These bugs are so annoying that until they are fixed, I will stick to Firefox as my standard browser.
Yes, I have reported the bugs, several months ago, but have not received a sigle word of response from the development team. For a few functions, I still use Chrome (just like I use IE for a few websites), so I will notice when they fix the bugs. They haven't yet.

I'm glad I can sleep safe at night knowing that criminals with names such as the 'skullcracker[^]' are being kept safely in open prisons. Makes you wonder what the nicknames of those are that we keep in the normal prisons, you know the ones that have bars and locks and stuff?

I vaguely recall there was a "Lord Archer" at Belmarsh. Chilling.

Yesterday [and Sunday by a freak of nature] was my 13th doing as I'm told anniversary.

Congratulations, but how did you manage to have an anniversary spanning two days?
One day I aspire to having a signature.

Simples, in Hungary you have to have a civil licence before they allow you to get married in Church. So on Star Wars day we did the civil shyte and the next day had the Elephants On Parade here[^].

I read this story from WW2 about a yong couple ready to marry, but the groom was sent to war in the Pacific before they could arrange it. Just in case something should happen to him, they wanted to be married. So a marriage was arranged over the air, with one priest where he was stationed, another one back home where she was living, and the two priests each witnessed the "I do" into the microphone of the military radio.
The groom came home from the war without serious wounds, and "they lived happily thereafter", celebrating their anniversary over two days: The radio communication had crossed the date line, so by the dates, he married one day before she did, and the story tells that they used to celebrate both dates.
