It's like they just threw in two completely incompatible ideas for the hell of it.

There is no general Google thread, but this seems like the place to bitch about the new home tab. Is there any way to get the Recently Closed button back? I loved that little guy.

One of the permissions when installing is that the extension can "access your data on all websites." I realize Google can do the same, but somehow I doubt they care about the money in my bank account, whereas I don't want this random person who wrote the extension to have access.

Alternatively, just set the encoding manually. The menu is just under Tools. Chances are changing it to UTF-8 from Western or vice versa will fix it.

That's not the problem I'm trying to fix. Something on the backend gets sent wrong, and the server sends literally ’ because that's what's stored in their database.

If I'm using Chrome in Windows 8 mode, and I'm streaming audio or video, it pauses the playback when I switch to another app. Is there a way to stop it from doing that? I have Chrome set to run in the background, but that seems to only work with Desktop mode.

So I was thinking about browsing with a gamepad and after some googling it looks like chrome has that functionality natively. Or is that just for browser games?

I've run into a weird problem with Youtube and the script "Youtube Center" I loaded with Tampermonkey. Every time I load a video, it starts to load, then stops and reloads the whole page again. This often leads to getting maybe a second or two of video and audio during the initial load, then it stops and reloads and starts again. Annoying as gently caress. Anyone else experience this and have a fix, other an "disable Youtube Center?" Which I might do, since this load->reload thing is more annoying than the stuff I got Youtube Center to fix (like being able to pause a video and have the whole drat thing load, which I guess is one of the things that got

I am a big fan of Magic Actions for YouTube @ http://www.chromeactions.com/. It can do quality selection and autobuffer the whole thing, black out the screen, etc. etc. I've never had a single problem with it.

I've also always wanted to try ChromeOS as I want to give it to my mom as a "mom PC", but I've literally never been able to get any of the weird nightly 3rd party builds to boot, let alone work.

Running Chrome (stable version) as a full screen app, but whenever I launch a video the sound either comes in a few seconds late, or the video starts without sound then pauses and waits for the sound stream to catch up. Tried turning plugins on and off and a reinstall. Anyone encountered this? Have a fix? Any help appreciated, it's always the small things that really do your head in.

Any video? From anywhere? Youtube doesn't count; they're like Schrodinger's Playback these days and most of it's on their backend or at their (Google's, really) CDN servers.
