I'd say buy a new mid 2015 Macbook 15inches, some vendors might have it in stock. I recently got it for around $2000 USD in Pakistan. It's Core i7, 16GB RAM and 256GB SSD.

Posted by blackdivine on Thursday January 29, 2015 @07:43AM
from the ask-hn dept.

What is the most advanced (both feature wise and ease of use wise) 2D engine out there that can help me reach the goal of developing a basic 2D MMO quickly. I would like to keep initial development Open Source and then maybe fork it.The engine preferably should have a networking API that lets you go to thousands persistent users scale easily.

Does anyone else see the logo image moving in a weird way? like when you are not exactly looking at it, it feels like animating, like those fancy optical illusions. (sorry for being off-topic but this is bothering me)

Hmm, good to know. Thank you once again
Re:10,000 Year Clock on Thursday September 19, 2013 @03:43AM (#6410371)
Thank you for letting me know in a kind way.

I figured out so but I also thought that when I submit a link that's already been submitted it would take me to the previous submission rather than resubmitting it, or does it resubmit if there's a big time difference?

Yes, that's what we are striving for. Not only a different but a BETTER view

I totally agree, that it's a good thing not to see 100% of posts from either HN or FB

But the updates that you miss are also some which have a lot of likes/shares/comments on FB. That's what we do, we don't dig out crap posts, but only those posts that outrank others.

So we have found out that you also miss those high ranked posts, almost as much as 50%
