Hey there! Been more than a while that I posted something on a Tech Tuesday, isn't it? Well I don't get much time, what can I do? And I miss being here a lot! :/ Anyways, lets get to the business, and I welcome you all to my blog on this wonderful Tuesday afternoon!
So today we are here to discuss certain little "tweaks" which can help you speed up your favorite web browser, Mozilla Firefox! These have been discussed at many places, many a times, but not in detail as we, you and I, shall do today. Why are we discussing Firefox? Well, it's my favorite web browser since last 7 years at least! It has topped the charts for years altogether, and being in close competition with the Google Chrome once it was launched. Though, one will have to agree, it maybe the case that home users are preferring Chrome just because of their "Google-Tainted lenses" but for the developer community and also the "Not Google Blind" users, Mozilla Firefox has ruled the day, ALWAYS! So let's get to the discussion.
Trick one: Pipelining
Perhaps, the most talked about, and the most deserving candidate to be on the top of the list is "Enable Pipelining in your Mozilla Firefox to make it faster." Now the point is, how to do that? And ones we learn that, well, what the hell is that?! O_O
How to enable pipelining?
1. Type about:config in the address bar.
2. Double-click network.http.pipelining and network.http.proxy.pipelining so their values are set to true.
3. Double-click network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and set this to 8.
4. Done!
What will this do?
This will dramatically reduce page download times.
Who should do this?
Those who have a fast Internet Connection and use general purpose Internet, should definitely go for it. Don't set the value beyond 8, since there's no point of setting the value beyond 8, and not less than 4, again which'd be pointless. If you have a slow Internet Connection, or you access traffic sensitive websites, which are unable to handle many request at a time, or ban you for a DoS attack if you try to access them again and again, you should not go for pipelining.
What exactly happens behind the scenes?
Normally, HTTP requests are issued sequentially, with the next request being issued only after the response to the current request has been completely received. Depending on network latencies and bandwidth limitations, this can result in a significant delay before the next request is seen by the server.
HTTP/1.1 allows multiple HTTP requests to be written out to a socket together without waiting for the corresponding responses. The requestor then waits for the responses to arrive in the order in which they were requested. The act of pipelining the requests can result in a dramatic improvement in page loading times, especially over high latency connections.
Now all that simply means, you request a page multiple times in one go, making the server respond to all those, thus the responses are combined as one, giving you a faster result. Now since Firefox is capable of sending 8 requests at a time, you should not set the maxrequest value above 8. And also, since Firefox sends 4 requests by default, never make the value go below 4. Always know what you are doing before you proceed, okay?
Trick two: Block Flash
Yes you heard that right! Rather, read that right. Actually flash is such a disaster to memory. Most of the websites have flash content which is of no use. Of course video websites, like YouTube, and all, won't like if you do so(even though they have the workaround of an non-flash video player, thanks to HTML5), still disabling flash is for your own good. Mostly it would prevent annoying ads, or popups in some cases, save you your data, and blah blah blah! Most importantly it would help you to save your Computer Memory, which would let you have a more easy experience with the web browser. You know how to do that? No? Well simple. Get some extension like Flashblock, or go to Addons(Ctrl+Shift+A) -> Plugins -> Shockwave Flash -> Ask to activate. Now Ask to Activate is a safer option than Disable since on pages where you need Flash, you can simply enable them with the help of a ribbon that would run on top asking you to enable flash. Though disabling on the other hand will make you enable it and disable it whenever needed and not needed respectively. This option will disable flash on all pages unless you click on the ribbon and reactivate it.
Trick three: Getting rid of the clutter regularly is a good habit
It would be a good practice to keep your browser clean. Though most of you already do, thanks to tonnes of crap roaming around the Internet keeping your nights busy -_- but still, keeping the cache of firefox clear is a great way to speed up your borwser, your computer, but well, at times reducing the Internet speed at times, because your browser will have to download the old content again just because there was nothing in the cache. But still always keep it clean, it is worth the tradeoff. You know how to do it, if not, it is rather simpler and easier to download CCleaner and let it do the work for you. :)
I guess these are safest tips. I have a huge set of settings that can help you make the performance be even better, but well most of them have associated risks. I will discuss them all in total maybe later when I get more time to do so. For now do these and have fun. These will help you all a little bit, if not a lot.
So now I must take a leave, good day friends. Have fun! :) See you all soon ^_^
Happy Monday, Happy new week! :D Welcome to my blog dear visitor! :)
"Beautiful Life" by Sasha Lopez Feat. Tony T & Big Ali
Lyrics
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life
Alright
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine, hey
It's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine
Let's go
Sexy ladies going crazy, put your hands in the air
We can party, get retarded, acting like we don't care
All my fellas grab them bottles, put your drinks in the sky
Glasses high, feel the vibe, it's a beautiful life
Never stayin' lonely, it could be forever
Be yourself, oh live your life
Oh oh oh
Don't you feel lonely
We can stay together
We could spent a wonderful time
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine, hey
It's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine
Let's go
Hey yo Sasha, turn the music up
Let's get this club jumping
This the anthem [?]
Put your hands up and pump it
If you came to have a party
Get it started tonight
Feeling right, day and night
'Cause with Big Ali you live a beautiful life
Never stayin' lonely, it could be forever
Be yourself, oh live your life
Oh oh oh
Don't you feel lonely
We can stay together
We could spent a wonderful time
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine, hey
It's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine
You don't have to worry like you did before
I will tell you the truth
All you need is more love and more things to adore
'Til your eyes and spirit let's you to see
All the beautiful places and things that I made just for you and for me
Go, go, go...
Hands high, hands high, get 'em high, get 'em high...
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine, hey
It's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life,
Make ya move and make love 'til the sunshine
Oh, it's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life
Hey, oh yeah
It's a beautiful world, it's a beautiful life
Hey, oh yeah
"More Than Friends feat. Daddy Yankee" by INNA
Lyrics
DY, yo Inna baby
Come, arriba, let's go now!
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we should be more than friends
We're in the corner of the crowded room
I want you lips, your body, boy, how soon?
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night
This might just be the night of you and I,
If there is no distancee, no hearts tonight,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we should be more than friends
From the first time that I saw the look in your eyes,
I've been thinking about you for all of this time,
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends.
Ain't looking for someone to call my own,
But with you boy we're in danger zone,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.
So here we are, I just dream of you
And all the thing that I'm about to do to you,
And if you like what we doin' why don't we give in for the night.
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we should be more than friends
From the first time that I saw the look in your eyes,
I've been thinking about you for all of this time,
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends.
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends
Wo-ah tonight, tonight we could be more than friends.
I hope you all enjoyed these songs! :) See you all soon again! :D
Happy Monday, Happy new week! :D Welcome to my blog dear visitor! :)

And if you love someone I know you feel me

"Happy" by Pharrell Williams
Lyrics
It might seem crazy what I am about to say
Sunshine she's here, you can take a break
I'm a hot air balloon that could go to space
With the air, like I don't care baby by the way
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
Here come bad news talking this and that
Yeah, give me all you got, don't hold back
Yeah, well I should probably warn you I'll be just fine
Yeah, no offense to you don't waste your time
Here's why:
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
(Happy, Ugh)
Bring me down
(Happy)
Can't nothing, bring me down
My Love is too high to bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
I said:
(Tell You 'Bout, Ugh)
Bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
My Love is too high to bring me down
Can't nothing, bring me down
I said:
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you know what happiness is to you
(Because I'm happy)
Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down...
can't nothing...
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down... my love is too high...
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down... can't nothing...
(Happy, happy, happy, happy)
Bring me down, I said
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof
Because I'm happy
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth
Because I'm happy

"Stay With Me" by Sam Smith
Lyrics
Guess it's true,
I'm not good at a one night stand.
But I still need love 'cause I'm just man.
These nights never seem to go to plan.
I don't want you to leave,
Will you hold my hand?
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need.
This ain't love, it's clear to see.
But darling, stay with me.
Why am I so emotional?
No it's not a good look, gain some self control.
Deep down I know this never works.
But you could lay with me,
So it doesn't hurt
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need.
This ain't love, it's clear to see.
But darling, stay with me
Oooh oh ooh oooh ooooh oh
Oooh oh ooh oooh ooooh oh
Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need.
This ain't love, it's clear to see.
But darling, stay with me.
Oh, wont you stay with me
Cause you're all I need
This ain't love its clear to see
But darling
Stay with me
I hope you all enjoyed these songs! :) See you all soon again! :D
