The wikipedia page has a nice hi-res version of the Vinland map: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinland_map

I don't have Prime and most packages still take only like 2 days to arrive, even though Amazon estimates that free shipping time at 7-10 days. Maybe it helps that I live in New York? Either way... lol, no way that I'd even pay for the student version of Prime.

This is freaking perfect. Thank you

weird, backpage.com is still up for me.

I maintain multiple troll accounts on Twitter and Facebook. That's all I use these services for. I take pride in my active part in the downfall of these services, while at the same time producing intriguing and low-brow troll content.

Once Mark Zuckerberg accepts the fact that not everyone uses the Internet according to his sheltered brain's arbitrary rules (I've even had to send a picture of my driver's license to Facebook to get them to unban one of my accounts. It's just a website! Get over yourselves), then the bubble will pop - with small communities scattered throughout the multiverse of the net just like Web 1.0.

And that's basically it. The web is a multiverse where each of us are simultaneously able to have multiple identities, living multiple realities. It's never been suited to the rules that Facebook is trying to force people into. I feel like Facebook would be better off making their own Internet if they want people to adhere to their bullshit.

I remember installing this in a VirtualBox around 2008 - cool to see it's still going! I had a friend in my CS program who was really into BeOS.

> Fast lanes DO exist in other countries right now.

Which countries?

ExtJS - I have good memories of working with its well-documented, excellent API. For me, it was a precursor to learning iOS development. Only to denounce Apple shortly after, once I realized that Apple will insist that I continue to upgrade my hardware to their latest piece of shit perpetually, throughout my entire life. So yeah. I'm still a web developer. ^_^

Whatever, you know what I meant. But yeah, I do hate branding :P

Ugh, I hate the branding. Smartphones are NOT essential. Fuckers.

ohh i thought exa was a replacement for the word 'is'. i was like damn.... that's fucking cool.

I tried to edit it to something like that, but the form didn't work. And now I don't even see an edit button.

Not to mention one of my favorite games, Noctis: http://anynowhere.com/bb/layout/html/doors/local/frameset_no... Which, as far as I know about No Man's Sky, sounds like a very similar game, but made many years before, without combat and inventory.

The "Complain" feature is my favorite feature of LibreJS! In fact, I think everything should have a complaint box. :P

Yeah, there's https://notabug.org/

Yeah, same here. I have a thinkpenguin laptop. Trisquel is based on Ubuntu (Trisquel 7.0 == Ubuntu 14.04) - I use it and it works well.

I also take issue with random startup management drama being on here like the "Twitter, to Save Itself, Must Scale Back World-Swallowing Ambitions" story.

I find "anything that good hackers would find interesting" kind of problematic. Good hackers according to who? Paul Graham? Silicon Valley capitalist culture? Please be more specific.

Also from HN's guidelines: "If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."

So these are open for interpretation.

Don't get me wrong. I am Pee-Wee Herman's biggest fan. But why is this on hacker news?

Push up a big tent? David Oscarmeyer Heineken is gross! :P

s/so its only fitting/so it's only fitting/

This is a good idea but a bad choice of font. I can barely read the text even when I enlarge it.

really hard to read this because the scrolling is acting all weird on firefox

So the only difference is the code size? I'm also confused why this made the front page.

Am I crazy or is the whole mobile phone industry dumb?

What's wrong with Java's standard libraries?

"Github Desktop, For both Mac and Windows"

lol... I think they're forgetting something.

It's better to download ublock from their source repo here: https://github.com/chrisaljoudi/uBlock/releases

> Due to Mozilla's review process, the version of uBlock available from the Add-ons homepage is currently often outdated. This isn't in our control.

Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean by 'bake it down into a single image'. You should be able to drag around the HTML elements on the field, if you've made an account and are working on your own field, or pulled it from someone else.

The terms are here: http://to.be/terms

There's a long section on "Ownership" that I don't fully understand, but you can interpret if you're interested.

But the comment applies to anyone who's not using JavaScript in their web browser.

Although I like programming in JavaScript, there's many people I know that consider JavaScript itself to be a silly extension of what a web browser should do.
