Chromium nightly builds

Post by bobthebuilder »

:shock: Whoa! I just tried the newest chrome browser build (has many pesky bugs fixed) and it has become my new favorite browser. Don't use that crappy google chrome build that has the installer. Download the newest nightly build http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/ 8) 8) 8)

It still install a whole bunch of shit you didn't want on your PC and not uninstall them when you uninstall the program?

its a zip, you dont "install" anything so things like google update are not included. the built-in updater is also disabled (unless this feature depends on google update >.>), so you have to manually update every time you want to :P

at the moment it scores 100 in the Acid3 Test, but the results are very sporadic, when revisiting the page in history etc.

Who needs extensions when you have SEAMONKEY?

As long as we're preaching browsers.

extensions are fun!

doesn't seamonkey have the ability to add extensions as well? i might be imagining things.

i'm not actually using as many extensions as i used to these days. forecastfox, adblock+, ietab(strictly for my job's email, MS exchange outlook is crap outside of ie), and one theme. 12 search engines, though. and now i'm rambling.....

It does, and there's even a functional extension manager in the 2.0 dev stuff.
I use Adblock and (massively underuse)Multizilla, personally.
Multizilla's a kitchen-sink extension, but there's only 2 or 3 features I want out of it.

It's just that a lot of the historically popular Firefox extensions are there to restore functionality that was stripped out when they branched off from Mozilla(the product).

I've got no fucking clue where they stand on configurability now. So I'm just merrily pushing the old cliche. :P

Aww, rambling is fun!

If I ever actually used the sidebar, I might have more search engines set up.
