[QUOTE=kaze4159;27194512]Remember that Sparkbrowser thing?

Okay, I am going to try Sparkbrowser. How big is the setup of other browsers? Under 40mb? Firefox 3.6 install file is abut 10mb. I know that Reeves included something with it so it would run. But why? WHY? Edit: There are no agreement and stuff in installer. And also : [img]http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/cc350/Hentsu/sparkfail3.png?t=1294164843[/img] Edit2: [img]http://i526.photobucket.com/albums/cc350/Hentsu/sparkfail4.png?t=1294165049[/img] FUCK YOU, I AM NOT GOING TO DOWNLOAD MORE STUFF!

It is hidden.

And how hard is it to use it with Sparkshit smart search on? Also, You aren't able to go to Wikileaks. Cool :downs:

Apparently he thinks wikileaks hacks banks :downs:

Sparkbrowser almost crashed while loading LMAO Pics. Would somebody help me with searching the page in LMAO pics (From 70-72, can't remember in which one it was) the superduper U JELLY spam? Where somebody posted 10000x10000 U JELLY pics. Or something like that.

Just tried Sparkbrowser. Sluggish piece of crap. I bet he only put in a WebBrowser Control and binded the buttons to it. Also, this URL autocomplete thing is a piece of crap. It doesn't suggest, it just takes control. If I type Fac, then it automatically loads Facebook. Tomorrow, I will make a better browser than this piece of shite.

Fucking sparkbrowser!!! I press enter, it goes to google, anywhere! Even when typing, trying to use search or when going to a site.

I am not going to uninstall it, but wait and see what people tell me to do with it. Other than uninstalling it. I mean like, testing security and shit. Wait, I need to download VirtualBox or smth then.

Oh shit. He made a video of the browser!! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGBkLeEZ6FA[/media]

[QUOTE=Tobba;27197977]228 bit encryption :wtc: Cant stop laughing at this guy, he can fill up a whole thread with all his content[/QUOTE] Yea there's that thread already. It's filled with his bullshit. :v: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1020084-Sparkbrowser-Your-new-favourite-web-browser!?highlight=sparkbrowser[/url]

I feel like he is making a parody because he says "Sick" and "win" so much. But then I realize he is being serious. See guys, now he is TRUE content. He thinks he knows what he is talking about, but is completely and utterly clueless.

Who's a rich fuck? Buy Spark OS so we can see how bad that is too.

Almost finished that "walking through a program in ludicrous detail" thread.

I don't see any illiteracy other than "at" not being capitalized, but that's regular illiteracy, not computer illiteracy.

GOTOs? Learn structured programming, whippersnapper! :bahgawd:

I'm writing an article on PC building for my school newspaper, and maybe after that XBox vs. PC gaming. Also, my teacher couldn't load some iBooks on her iPad, so one student suggested "Turn it off then turn it back on, sometimes you have too many files for it to load!" :frog:
