Opera

And I'm all about speed. That's why I use Opera's mouse gesture feature.Here's what this cool feature enables you to do: Right-click on any empty space on a page and move the mouse in a specific path for a certain action. For example, right-click on an empty space, hold the mouse button down, and drag the mouse to the left and you'll go back one page. Do the same thing, only drag the mouse to the right, and you'll go forward one page.There's even a thing called rocker gestures, which allows you to navigate backward and…

The Aya story began two decades ago, when Marguerite Abouet, a Parisian legal assistant with roots in Ivory Coast, got together with Clément Oubrerie, an animator and children’s book illustrator, to produce a graphic novel inspired by her African childhood. That book eventually became a bestselling series, one loved and acclaimed for its vivid portrayal of life in Ivory Coast in the 1970s, a period during which the country experienced an economic boom. Since translated into 15 languages, it made both Abouet and her…

Music soundtracks our travels, kills time and distracts, entertainingly. In Berlin, which has more than 300 train stations and where you can see everything panoramically from the overhead S-Bahn, a well-loaded smartphone or MP3 player turns a journey into a film with a score.I have more records related to Berlin than to any other city. I can’t help feeling the city should have a nexus or mother venue where all the currents cross – a musical equivalent of the mighty Berlin Hauptbahnhof, opened in 2006, a powerful symbol of…

Opera revealed today that it will launch a new AI-powered browser built on its own engine for iOS in Europe. The Norway-based company announced the change following the news that Apple is going to allow alternative browser engines to run on iOS as a result of the requirements of the European Digital Markets Act (DMA). The changes will allow developers to offer browsers that are not based on the WebKit browser engine. Apple currently requires third-party browsers to use WebKit, which is the same…

Stage Fright (1987) TrailerAfter an auspicious early career assisting, acting for, and/or otherwise working with the likes of Lucio Fulci, Joe D’Amato, Dario Argendo, and Terry Gilliam, Michele Soavi made his own cinematic mark, directing cult favorites like 1989's The Church, 1991's The Sect, and perhaps his best-known work, 1994's Dellamorte Dellamore (aka Cemetery Man). His first feature, 1987's Stage Fright, is maybe a hair more “horror” than “giallo,” but its tale of actors trapped in a theater with an escaped…

Maria Diaz/ZDNETSome time ago, Opera became my default web browser. The biggest reason for that shift from Firefox was Opera's Workspaces, which make for the best tab management on the market. Recently, I also started using Opera's Aria AI option as a more efficient means of researching. Although I still use Aria, I've also added ChatGPT into the mix because sometimes two voices are better than one.Also: I replaced Google Search with Opera's Aria AI feature and I don't miss the former one bitBefore I get into this, I…

If you’re not breaking laws or causing harm, it’s really up to you what you look at on the internet—we won’t judge. But there might be occasions when you don’t want someone in close proximity to see the contents of your open tabs, and that’s where a browser panic button, capable of shutting down your browser with a single key press, can come in handy.Some of the more innocent reasons you might need this are if you’re playing games when you should be working, and your boss walks past, or perhaps you’re planning a surprise…
