Google Pacman
- electromagnetic 16y agoSo we're linking to one of the google homepage graphics, because you know no one who uses HN will have ever seen it.
- Rauchg 16y agoThe post probably wants to show that there's now a definite place for it, /pacman/, even if the homepage doodle changes.
- oops 16y agoThat, and it's not just a graphic.. it's an actual, playable HTML5/JS game.
- jewbacca 16y agoAlso, who the hell actually sees the Google homepage anymore?
- paulgb 16y agoThat you are being downvoted is sufficient proof for me that HN has changed. A Pac-Man game isn't hacker news. Even if Google made it.
- joeyo 16y agoMy guess is that any downvotes are because of the sarcastic tone. Sarcasm has (mercifully) never been a part of HN culture in my recollection.
- paulgb 16y agoOk, fair enough. But I stand by the point that a Pac-Man game still isn't hacker news.
- electromagnetic 16y agoAgreed, it's as non-HN news as a link to about:blank because I would put money on the fact that everyone using HN in a non-chrome browser has google set as their default homepage.
- arantius 16y agoThat bet would fail. (I, at least, use about:mozilla .)
- electromagnetic 16y agoThen I owe you at least a penny, would you like it couriered or hand delivered? And would you prefer it in British, Canadian, American or Euro? I have all four.
- AKbhat 16y agoi think this post is so that people have a persistent link to that game. which was a hot topic at Stack overflow yesterday
