Disable Auto Scrolling

Hate the new browser auto scrolling option? Most websites are just not scrolling friendly and give users a hard time, viewing pages.  The only fix right now is to disable this option until everyone upgrades their websites.

Chrome

Load chrome://flags/#smooth-scrolling in the browser's address bar and hit enter. This takes you directly to the preference on the flags page. Alternatively, openchrome://flags directly, hit F3, and search for smooth scrolling to find it this way. Click on the disable link to turn the feature off.

Firefox

This is why I was happy to see there's actually a way to disable the automatic scrollfeature. You only have to open the browser's configuration settings (Tools > Options) , go to the Advanced section and then, in the General tab, remove the tick from “Useautoscrolling”


IE

Launch Internet Explorer 8 by double-clicking on its desktop icon or by clicking the "Start" button and navigating to the browser. 2. Click "Tools" on the overhead menu and then scroll down to "Internet Options." In the "Internet Options" window, click the "Advanced" tab.

Nest Security

Looks like Nest is upgrading it's feature abilities to offer now a security system that requires no passkey. Pretty smart but very expensive. I am almost certain anyone can purchase a similar Nest home security product for a quarter the value of what this one is worth. I just can't see myself paying so much for just two sensors, a keypad and passkeys. You decide?
