News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

There is a fairly popular tiktok account doing much the same thing. Travelling from town to town to point out the worst parts of them. Although I'll admit it sometimes feels more depressing than funny.

You could update the screenshot now your link is near the top :)

What a great idea. We need more of this sort of thing.
You might want to delete that link. They've replaced it with something a little NSFW.
Absolutely! I'll definitely do that!
My friends and I love playing "Murder, She Wrote" on a big TV screen during downtime at LAN parties. We streamed it on Twitch for a while. We're big fans, great work!

My driving instructor sketched The Magic on paper and asked me to draw various routes before he let me drive on it. My driving test went over it, so at least I was prepared!

It can be really bad, my short experience with a DK1 left me feeling sick for hours afterwards.

I can't recommend Githug highly enough for learning git: https://github.com/Gazler/githug

Why didn't this come out of Adobe a year ago?
This is simply not true. From John Carmack's Twitter: "Stock Quake 3 bots don't use neural networks, folks" (https://twitter.com/ID_AA_Carmack/status/352192259418103809)

I honestly thought that moving a browser window with javascript had been impossible since early IE.

Replacing the title with "Come back! We miss you!" when you leave the tab is cute but it makes finding the article in a sea of tabs difficult.
Re:Get Rid of the App Store’s “Top” Lists on Tuesday June 18, 2013 @04:50AM (#5898211)
I would imagine that Apple like the headlines they get from runaway app successes like Angry Birds. Along with the subtle "Write apps for iOS and become the next Rovio!" message they send out. These massive hits are usually initially fueled by the "Top" lists so I don't see them being removed any time soon.
Sure, but a button would still be a nice touch. I closed my connection before shutting the server down. I hoped there would be a "kill it" button on the page but there wasn't so I had to reconnect before I could shut it down. Hardly a great effort but some people might not bother.
You should add a "kill it" button so I can easily free up the server if I finish playing with it before the ~30 minutes is up.

Githug is also a really great way to learn Git - https://github.com/Gazler/githug

I too took my driving test on this beast. I spent a good part of a driving lesson learning the different routes across it.
