It takes a bit longer to navigate to and load pages than other browsers and doesn’t block malware on its own, so you need to invest in an antivirus program if you use it. It uses the same basic program as Mozilla Firefox, and its community of contributors creates add-ons you can plug into the code. The SeaMonkey internet browser is a good choice if you want the freedom to design your own web browser. As such, we suggest you invest in a good antivirus program that includes safe browsing, a feature that uses browser extensions to block and warn you about malware before your computer is infected. However, SeaMonkey has several drawbacks. ![]() Each of these features is easy to access with the icon pinned to the SeaMonkey toolbar. SeaMonkey is compatible with some third-party browser extensions. SeaMonkey is an all-in-one internet suite in addition to a browser, it has an email client, built-in chat and a web editor that helps you build basic websites. This will install the built-in ChatZilla in your profile using the same routines as if it were "anywhere on your HD", and thus in "unpacked" mode, so that its cZ icon will appear on the taskbar and/or at the topleft window corner.Best free email service 2023: Send messages for freeīest internet providers 2023: get the speeds you deserveīest ethernet switches 2023: supercharge your home network Once the doorhanger tells you that ChatZilla is installed, restart SeaMonkey. After the countdown elapses, click "Install Now"Ħ. In the Settings tab that opens, click on Search in the left pane. The popup should say that you're about to install ChatZilla. Click the menu button and select Settings. I've found that at suite/app/Makefile.in line 284, in target pack-ext, the built-in extensions, which are already together in unpacked form in (IIUC) /mozilla/dist/bin/extensions/, are packed to xpi form into distribution/extensions/ but for the love of me I can't find where /mozilla/dist/bin/extensions/.xpiĥ. So let's start trying to find and understand the relevant Mozilla code bits then. Well, I'll fall back on #1 if I can't find how to get #3 to work then. OTOH, I can just imagine (but maybe I'm too optimistic) that it will be possible to define the icons (in the "SeaMonkey" location mentioned under 1 above) as symlinks to the ChatZilla icons in so that the "make package" step will pick them up (resolving the symlink) so that the current cZ logo and any future "new cZ logo" will be picked up automagically without even the need to add new explicit copy instructions (I know, I'm dreaming, but now I think you can see why this is the variant I prefer). /something paths which concern SeaMonkey far down inside the ChatZilla repository, and I can very well imagine that if in, say, five years, the architecture of the comm-central repository is redesigned, no one will remember that there is a makefile down in ChatZilla which needs a change (maybe even not me: I'm 60 years old now, I may be a doddering old fool by then, if not six feet under -) ). Of the latter two, I prefer #3 because I regard it as more elegant. ![]() "packaging pull" solution: modify only comm-central files, and in such way that when building-and-packaging SeaMonkey the icons are pulled from the ChatZilla hg repository and become "part of SeaMonkey". This will require either a makefile if(n)def or a bash-script if.ģ. "conditional push" solution: inside some ChatZilla makefile, add the necessary lines to do the above-mentioned copy whenever ChatZilla is built *as part of SeaMonkey*. My opinion: IMHO this is easiest but ugliest I don't like it.Ģ. Disadvantage: If the ChatZilla owners decide that they want a new logo, it won't be picked automagically. Advantage: I expect it's the easiest solution. "one-time copy" solution: copy the already existing cZ icon (in all its platform-dependent variants) once and for all ("at bug-fixing time") into some "SeaMonkey" directory (so that it makes its way into /chrome/icons/default/ IIUC), make sure that the cZ window gets that at runtime instead of the "generic" Sm icon (which it gets now), and have done with it. ![]() In fact, there are several features that I've tried to 'improve' over the Firefox implementation. It is not meant to be an exact duplicate of any specific version of Firefox, as I don't think any version was ever 'perfect' to be worth exactly duplicating. Also, please bear with me: no patch yet, I'm still at the design stage.ġ. This extension will convert the Seamonkey browser to be similar to Firefox 3.x. I'll be ASSIGNing it to myself _because_ I believe that it is a "good first bug": if I succeed it will be my first change in the code of any one of the major Mozilla applications (in this case, SeaMonkey), so I suppose I shall need guidance. This is a followup to bug 645627 our purpose here is to get a distinctive cZ taskbar-and-window-corner icon for ChatZilla-in-SeaMonkey even though the current packaging procedure forces an install as a packed xpi.

Also important: Legend has it Azor Ahai first tried to temper Lightbringer in water, which broke the sword (rather like how Dany's fleet failed in a sea battle against Euron?), then tried to drive the sword into the heart of a lion (like her forces failed at the lion-sigiled home of Casterly Rock?), and then he finally succeeded by plunging the sword into the breast of his wife, killing her and fusing her soul with the weapon (… okay, so we got nothing for that one). She's also fireproof and R'hllor is the god of light and fire. Her original birthplace is Dragonstone, a volcanic island of smoke and salt (some fans think the prophecy's "smoke and salt" reference basically means Azor Ahai must be a Targaryen). A red comet appeared in the sky afterward at the start of season 2. In the novels, we're told "a bleeding star" will herald the coming of Azor Ahai, who "shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake dragons out of stone." Dany was a princess who was "born again" when she emerged from the smoke and fire of Drogo's funeral pyre at the end of season 1 and birthed her dragons. The Game of Thrones prequel series might explore this exact story, but for know, all we can do is speculate about what happened and how it might inform the final season of Game of Thrones.įor now, though, we think it’s Jorah’s destiny to kill Daenerys and, eventually, the Night King.Case For: The most obvious current candidate. We don’t know what can really be taken literally or what actually happened. Like most legends, however, the truth is shrouded in metaphor and mystery. Azor Ahai led the charge with Lightbringer. Most assume this legend refers to the creation of the Night King, when the Children of the Forest allied with the First Men to force the White Walkers far enough north that they could build the Wall to keep them there. Only then did they gain the power needed to defeat some great darkness. The original hero supposedly existed thousands of years ago and had to forge their sword Lightbringer by stabbing their beloved right in the heart, imbuing it with some kind of weird Lord of Light magic. These are all the same thing, a person reborn “amidst salt and smoke” who would wield a flaming sword against the coming darkness. Lady Melisandre, the Red Witch, has been ranting about the Prince That Was Promised (the reincarnation of Azor Ahai) since Season 2. What better circumstance than Jorah killing her with Heartsbane, fueled by the anguish of unrequited love?Įither of these cases would set up a lot of interesting narrative parallels for the series between Jorah and Azor Ahai, Daenerys and Aerys Targaryen, and even Jorah and Jaime Lannister.Ĭarice Van Houten as Melisandre in 'Game of Thrones'. ![]() If she’s turned into a White Walker, only a Valyrian steel sword or dragonglass blade could kill her. There’s also the possibility the Night King wants her as his Night Queen. If, later in the season, Daenerys goes fully “Mad” just like her dear old dad, then Jorah might have to kill her to save everyone else. She demonstrated early in Season 7 by killing Randyll and Dickon Tarly that she didn’t have much restraint (something we were reminded of in the Season 8 premiere when she met Sam). “Hearts-bane.” Get it? Yeah, it’s a little on the nose, but it could be a huge clue that later this season, Jorah could kill Daenerys Targaryen after she pulls a Mad Queen just like her father. Jorah unsheathing Heartsbane in 'Game of Thrones' Season 8, Episode 2. Jorah’s newfound connection to Heartsbane only further supports these theories, because a huge part of the Azor Ahai theory involves the hero stabbing their beloved through the heart to forge a magical sword capable of defeating great evil. Recent evidence heading into Season 8, Episode 2 is helping to build a case that the real Azor Ahai might actually be Jorah Mormont.Įxhibit A: Clips from the Game of Thrones Season 8 trailer and the Episode 2 teaser pretty much confirm that Samwell Tarly gives Jorah Mormont Heartsbane, the Valyrian steel greatsword that’s been the ancestral blade of House Tarly for generations.Įxhibit B: A two-year-old Reddit theory posits that Heartsbane could be crucial in defeating the Night King, and other fan theories just as old think Jorah is the Prince That Was Promised. Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen are the obvious candidates, but it seems equally as possible that Game of Thrones might surprise us. Over the years, everyone from Samwell Tarly to Jaime Lannister have been put forth as dark horse candidates on Game of Thrones for Azor Ahai, the hero destined to deliver Westeros from the evil Night King. |
