I am aware. That was the "parser needs to be updated" part. Probably should have fixed it before posting! Thanks for looking.

http://www.moredrunk.com - Lists alcohol from different bars and grocery stores in order of Alcohol Content/Price. Haven't touched it in over a year and the parser needs an update. Not a lot of traffic currently but perhaps has a high potential.

I have made a very low-res polar coordinates version: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/543600/1110polar.png

I will make a larger version later tonight.

That was my reasoning when I purchased http://www.moredrunk.com - that and it was ridiculously cheap.
As dweis mentioned here, I am working on something like this for the NYC area: http://www.moredrunk.com - it is still in early development but I will definitely post an update to HN when it's more stable and polished.

Edit: However, I am not keeping track of happy hour deals since that requires a new data source that I haven't figured out yet. Ideally, I'd have establishments give me the data but the site doesn't have the ability or userbase for yet.

I like the implementation of The City Swig, and I'll be sure to keep it in mind when working on my own, (NYC-based) project. Keep up the good work!

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I run that website. It's still in early development and there are still some technical challenges. I will definitely post to HN when it's more production ready.
Re:Apple releases Ipad 3 on Wednesday March 07, 2012 @04:04PM (#3677226)
I think the change is due to cheap and plentiful on-board graphics that limits the screen resolution but provides a longer battery life. Since most users don't need a powerful gaming laptop, manufacturers use the cheap, efficient, but limited on-board graphics processors.
I don't get it.

I assume he still had to pay for what he took home, so how is him going to a farm and killing a chicken, pig and goat any better than someone else doing it and selling it to him? Hell, the people at the farm would probably have done it more humanely anyways.

Yes, he wants to be more thankful by providing himself with a concrete connection between the animal and his food, but what does that really change?

And I think a lot of the pig and goat will go to waste.
