Thank you for this. I've been pressing skip on the small vertical pipes as a chimney to me is a made of brick. Curse being born in Britain!

Google's CAPTCHA is a cancer of the internet. We're all training their AI without any renumeration. I genuinely hope that some government figures out how to sue them. I've sat down…

It's just a spinning ball for me.

I went to Blind Mystics and the website doesn't work.

The creating of an account is really quite convoluted. There needs to be a way to create sub accounts. Finding content seems to be broken. Typing a search only seems to search for …

Why is this on HN?

Samsung is a huge multi-billion (maybe even trillion) dollar company of which Electronics is only one division and you think it should be broken up because a (non-flagship) Samsung…

What makes this so bad for consumers is that if you search for an app via Google, you can't even open links directly.

It's a good question. Would be nice if the page could've details what makes the criteria for being featured.

Tox doesn't even have an official release. It's still in alpha stage development.

They had it on a subdomain for ages. Glad it's finally the main site. It's actually beautiful. Now if only they'd redesign the Oyster bit too.

In terms of category, there needs to be a "None of the above"/"general non-celebrity"

A lot changes in a month in terms of software development. Try it again and let us know if it still sucks by your standards.

Hopeful yes, but no one expects a drive failure before even half of the warranty has expired surely?

It's from Lacie, so no thank you. I bought a Lacie drive and proceeded to copy all my stuff onto it. Before I could get comfortable with it (so within the first six months of purch…

But how much were these services really offering? It is one thing to attempt to charge for a superior service, but for the most basic of services? That's a whole different story. I…

Very negative leaning.

Essentially anything that mentions fragmentation is about spreading FUD. Let's not forget that you can limit your app/mag/etc to any devices you want. It's disappointing as the TNW…

This is actually pathetic reading. > “You make a beautiful magazine for the iPad, and then you dumb it down for Android’." and then you read > "we pick movies from the iTunes store…

TBF to Mozilla, have you tried to submit a patch to Google? I mean look at the furore that's begun over Google's recent decision to remove the ability of apps to toggle Aeroplane M…

I've written some fantastic reviews. Why am I being punished by an unproven notion? This doesn't help anyone. It's merely a terrible marketing ploy to further push G+.
