SeaMonkey 2.5 Beta 2 is available for free download now in 24 languages and makes a list of new functionality available to a wider testing audience for the first time. Please note that this pre-release version is still intended for testers only and might still show some problems in everyday use. As always, we appreciate any feedback you may have and encourage users to help us by filing bugs.
SeaMonkey 2.5 Beta 2 is available for free download on the SeaMonkey website. Once you have downloaded and installed this release, we'd like to encourage you to get involved in discussing and reporting problems as well as further improving the product.
For those of you who are reading this and on a SeaMonkey version 2.1 through 2.3.0 you will be unable to currently update your version of SeaMonkey through automated means. (SeaMonkey 2.0.x did not have this update security measure, so is unaffected)
Our secure certificate for updates, used to protect you, our users, from fraud and issues with the update had to be changed. The one we had expired and we were unable to renew it with the same information we baked into SeaMonkey by default.
We fixed this issue in our version 2.3.1, so if you have that version or newer you will not be affected. And no need to worry.
You can manually install a new version from our website at www.seamonkey-project.org. Or apply our hotfix
I have created a hotfix addon you can install into your SeaMonkey to once again update to a newer version of SeaMonkey via our internal update mechanics. This hotfix currently requires a restart of SeaMonkey, though I do plan to update it in the future to be a "restartless" addon for the versions I am able to.
This is different than a confusing error that gets reported in versions from 2.3.1 and newer that indicates the update server is a wrong certificate. This error is reported whenever we check against our builtin list, and of course it finds the first one we have listed as incorrect and reports it. The next cert in line is found to be ok. So this error ends up being a false positive.
5. Same Political belief - Yes but I’m probabbly not as devout. I vote my conscious more not one party
5. Same Political belief - Thats a tough one . Definitely the same as my mom. My father and I share some beliefs but not all. He’s more conservative and capitalist than I am on some things but leans pretty far left on others .
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - Occasionally we watch the same type of shows. Mostly no though.
Not only did the apple fall far from the tree, but I think it evolved into an entirely different fruit.
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - Not really... My mother & I both watch "Dancing w/ the Stars," but that's about it - she likes Hallmark type movies/programs & gentle police procedurals while I like my TV a little grittier & not as sappy. My dad loves movies, but, for the most part, we don't like the same ones.
3. Same type of Occupation - When I first started working, yes, due to a great deal of influence from my mom. Now, no, not at all.
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - NO. I didn't grow up with a TV. They both hated it. I do watch some.
5. Same Political belief - NO, but later in life we were all of same page, but not not until my 30,s
3. Yes (My Mom was a stay at home mom for me & I was a stay at home mom for the majority of DS's life.)
5. Yes (same political beliefs as my Dad & same as my Mom eventually supported long before I was born)
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - My mom liked baseball and History channel shows, so yes there. My dad passed 51 years ago and I don't recall what shows he watched
3. Same type of Occupation - No. My dad was a lumber salesman, my mom a Registered Nurse. I've worked in Broadcasting for 43 years, 41 of it in TV
4. Living in the same area - My dad was born in China, my mom was born in Canada. I have never lived more than 6 miles from where I am right now, which is where I was born. My dad moved here about 12 years before I was born. My moved here 9 years before I was born
Your dad must have been my dad's competitor. My dad owned Dry Creek Lumber in RL, Auburn Blvd and Stockton Blvd
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - Mom and dad liked westerns (Bonanza etc), me not so much. But my mom liked soap operas and I like reality type tv so probably close in today's tv.
3. Same type of Occupation - No. dad was self employed, mom was a SAHM. I was bored staying at home.
5. Same Political belief I'm pretty sure. Back in those days, the adults really didn't discuss it as much. Then again, we didn't have the constant instant news.
Or one of his suppliers. He operated under the name Black Diamond Lumber, and Donovan Company. His office was on the second floor of the Buggy Whip Restaurant on Fulton Avenue. His business partner was Mead Kibbey who passed away in September. That may be a name you know. Mead later became huge in the wholesale lumber industry in Northern California. My dad retired due to health issues in 1965 and passed away in 1967.
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - Yes and No. We all love Super Hero, Star Wars, and Musicals. I like more drama and slightly more adult humor movies than my parents.
4)no. They live on the pacific coast and I have spent most of my adult life in the northeast and Utah.
On #5, don’t you sometimes wish it could go back to those days? Politics were rarely discussed and even then it was usually reserved for holidays and family gatherings. The news was someone reading the actual news not giving their opinion or anyone else’s. Just news.
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - Sort of. Mostly? I appreciate the stuff they like, but I am more heavily vested in shows and movies that aren't really their cup of tea.
2. Sames Religion or Non Religion - Both Christian, but they are Catholic and I am an American Baptist. I am also much more involved in church leadership and service than either of them ever were.
3. Same type of Occupation - Nope. My dad worked in the scheduling department of a company that made steel and products out of steel. My mom worked as a secretary for a Coca-Cola bottling plant and then later as a grocery clerk. I'm a software developer.
1. Same type of TV programs and Movies - NO - my dad watches hockey and baseball, I watch football. My mom watches things like the Biggest Loser (is that even on anymore?!) and Hallmark Movies. I'm more of a Impractical Jokers and Historical Documentary kind of person
2. Sames Religion or Non Religion - KIND OF. We are all Catholic, my mom is a practicing Catholic, but I am more just in spirit. I went to Catholic schools growing up and enjoy going to Mass every once in a while, but my kids haven't really been raised in the church.
3. Same type of Occupation - NO, neither parents went to college - one was a mail carrier and the other will retire next year from being a Dr. Office Manager (worked her way up through the ranks over the years). I have a professional career with a Fortune 500 Company. None of the three are better than the other, IMO. My dad made decent money with the USPS all in all. And my mom followed the typical career path of a former 1980's housewife who raised a bunch of kids to teenager-hood before going to work as a part time dr. office receptionist. It all worked out in the end. And I make a good living but live every day knowing I can be laid off any minute in today's culture of disposable human resources
4. Living in the same area - NO, parents live in retirement states, I live in a different state than where I grew up, however we did all live in generally the same area (within an hour of each other) until the past 10 years
5. Same Political belief - Sort of - mom. She is a Republican. Dad - sort of...he is a Democrat. I am an Independent with some strong Republican beliefs and some strong Democratic beliefs. I follow the platform, not the party.
4. Living in the same area - One is several states away (thank goodness), the other less than an hour, haven't seen them in 2 years.
I have zero in common with either of my parents, and they have been divorced for 46 years and have zero in common with each other.
