Anyone else getting weird behaviour when visiting http://
upsandbattery.com using Firefo or Chrome?

It has been my goto site for replacement batteries in the
recent past, but lately the site is not rendering the prices
when using Firefox or Chrome from Win7.

It may be just a Win7 thing, so if anyone with Win7 can
duplicate the issue, that would be good to know.

Meanwhile, the site works ok with MyPal on my XP machine.

I just tried with the Tor Browser, which is a modified Firefox, and the site loads.

I am getting some Javascript errors in the console with this site, though.

Hello Arelor!

Anyone else getting weird behaviour when visiting http://
upsandbattery.com using Firefo or Chrome?

I just tried with the Tor Browser, which is a modified Firefox, and the site loads. --

Didn't work for me. The prices are missing. Tor is operating
at Standard security.

Yep.. Just black boxes. No prices. Interesting.

That is not a solution just to visit ONE site.

I certainly would not walk into the Internet with a Windows 7 these days, but I think I will bring up some random thought I shared with friends last friday:

How the fucking fuck can my old fucktard computer from the Windows 7 era feel snappier and more fluid while running its original Operating System than my mother's modern computer running its own Original Operating system?

Commercial Operating Systems have been in regression for a good while. You need to purchase systems with a fuckload of CPU cores and RAM to keep doing about the same thing you used to do with less than half the resources. It is no wonder people wants to stick to their ancient setups.

well my computer is real real old and i'm running windows 10 and i can play a lot of the newer games on it. it's not awesome but i can play the games.
i can't run windows 11 due to the cpu being blacklisted even though i have the features it requires.

I have FF-esr 115.12 64-bit. The site does not load the
prices. I just see black boxes where the prices would be.

Firefox 115.11.0esr 64-bit on Debian linux bookworm. The site loads with
the prices shown, in CND, in the black boxes.

Epiphany 43.1 - the page only partially loads. I don't see the products or prices.

Just for fun, I tried Links2 2.28. The site does load, in mostly text, and
the prices are shown in USD.
