ufarn posted:Be careful with saving passwords in Chrome. An XSS exploit allows other people to easily intercept it: http://homakov.blogspot.dk/2012/11/xss-save-your-password-pwned.html. This is a dumb 'attack'. If someone can XSS the login page, they could easily record your keystrokes as you type in the password. e: Although I guess you could automatically redirect someone to an XSS page and use this. Still, it's not exactly the worst thing in the world. Any site that has this kind of vulnerability is going to get their passwords stolen anyway.

Vivian Darkbloom posted:Did Chrome on Mac break for anyone else? I'm on a 2012 MBA running 10.8.2, and a bunch of dynamic webpages are now causing Chrome to freeze up, with the stupid little beach ball. Pages affected include Gmail, slickdeals.net, and workflowy.com. I don't know what they have in common, but it's damned annoying. Incidentally this fixed itself - after I let Chrome sit for a few minutes it was responsive again and the issue isn't happening anymore.

Chrome barfs up a garbled mess of XML code whenever I click on an RSS feed link. Anyone know what's up with this?

Chrome doesn't have an RSS reader, it's consider bloat. Try an extension.

I've been using RSS Feed Reader, which gives a you a dropdown menu of feeds along the lines of Firefox's Live Bookmarks. The most recent update syncs with Google Reader, too.

On that note: I just started using pinned tabs (  ) and was wondering if there was any way to make them static (i.e. Not allow you to accidentally put anything into their address bars or close them)? Or, at the very least, not make them in-focus when Chrome starts.

You're using 18 MB? I'm only using 11.6 MB with Google Read Notifier.   Of course you can get 8 GB of RAM for $40 now so who cares how much RAM Chrome uses? I do, at work our computers are just starting to get 4 GB of RAM.  I just use my tablet and phone to browse the web at work though.

I'm having an issue on my Mac where it doesn't keep me logged into sites when I create a new session. I have to log in to every site and I have to do the 2 step verification every time I start up Chrome. On my PC it'll keep me logged in to my specific sites every time I start up Chrome. Anyone know of a solution?

Is there anything in Google Chrome that will allow me to type a phrase and have it turn into whatever I tell it to? For example if I type shortcutthing, I want it to turn into ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. If not, is there an extension anyone recommends?

As I understand it each tab in Chrome is sandboxed, however I've had the entire browser freeze due to a plug-in like flash crashing. Are plug-ins not sandboxed or am I misunderstanding how sandboxing works in Chrome?

How do I get rid of the Google Chrome remote desktop extension? I uninstalled it weeks ago but it's still running in the background and connecting to something under the name "remoting_host.exe". Also, for some reason it's looking at an ico file in my Steam directory and a file in Google Drive.  I've noticed other programs will sometimes do this, why do they need to go poking around in other directories? Steam does not poke around in the Chrome directory, leave Steam alone Chrome.
