    Microsoft Access: Edge Browser Control is finally here :)

    No, I meant actually developing for the web browser control making the contents of the control interact with the application.

    Microsoft Access: Edge Browser Control is finally here :)

    You can find the legacy web browser controls even in the newest versions of Access. However, web technologies have moved on and IE couldn't keep up. Then, Google developed Chromium and a lot of folks forked it or worked on top of it, Microsoft included, and now a lot of browsers are based on...

    Webbrowser in Form without Control !!!! Years to late....

    I couldn't make it work, but does it give you an object model to manipulate the application or is this just for the amusement of opening an application from an Access form?

    UK Online Safety Laws - I, and therefore the site, are at risk

    You check the IP and if it's from UK, you get limited access or no access at all. Holy Sith, 99% of the Watercooler then?

    UK Online Safety Laws - I, and therefore the site, are at risk

    Can anybody please explain what that pesky legislation is flagging? How is this site harmful to children exactly? Is it the utteraccess owner thread, that's the only thing that comes close, right? Something else? Perhaps the war happy propaganda? Is it the mods wishing to bomb civilians? What is...

    UK Online Safety Laws - I, and therefore the site, are at risk

    That's a LLM you're replying to. Either that or LLMs write exactly like Jason does. Anyways, so the current situation is: 1. AWF relies on threads about politics to subsist 2. Threads about politics hurt ad revenue 3. UK legislation is the source of the problem 4. UK legislation applies if the...

    UK Online Safety Laws - I, and therefore the site, are at risk

    According to a basic whois search, the servers are already in the US, but Jon could probably make the .co.uk domain point to a .com or whatever else

    @Pat Hartman Because the Watercooler belongs to this Access forum. Access is not politics, it's software.

    Come to think of it, The Watercooler seems to be a contention board, and that toxicity has clearly taken its toll.

    UK Online Safety Laws - I, and therefore the site, are at risk

    Much of the Watercooler content is straight up TruthSocial material. Access users shouldn't really have to deal with that kind of conversation when they're trying to find answers. Meanwhile, Watercooler-only users would fit right in on platforms like TruthSocial or Twitter/X. There's probably a...

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    Yes. If the content you consume from LLM is strictly technical, I guess it's fine.

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    That's the kind of dangers I'm warning about in my post: Don't get your news from LLMs. I will tell you why: Imagine a powerful entity, maybe a politician or maybe a very rich person. Let's say you saw that entity do something very wrong, but since they have power/money, they pay the most...

    Google made it harder for external models to access the web's depth.

    Out of curiosity: how is this affecting you in particular? Are you using the "search for me" tool from your AI tool a lot lately or what is going on exactly? Note: I suggest you people don't let an AI search for you unless you don't really care too much, you don't know what sources it will cite...
