Those "real" painted pictures give me always a kind of warm feeling compared to the sharp digital paintings. But it may have been caused by all that SciFi covers I've seen as a child.

I am really looking forward for such a read about North Korea in some years. I hope I live long enough to see it.

Are you really comparing those exchangeable webpages to a revolutionary human interface device? All these webpages will go. Like FB. The device will remain there until we manage to implant something directly in our brains. We are talking ab

But it were this few from this so unimportant minority that filled their Kickstarter project with money, making this thing get so far. Advertising for it. Sharing propaganda and knowledge. They are the ones that could do this in the future

I guess I'm the only one here who sees no use in that. I have my smartphone with me and my company phone. I don't need another display with less features. Especially not on my arm where I have a real watch. I somehow feel it as a

I see with my parents and their peer group I've been supporting for years why the numbers for market share may also be misleading. I installed Firefox on all of their computers, taking favorites from IE. They all use Chrome today. You

Excactly my thought. Most of these command-like "advice" posts here lack a real reason why I should stop doing what I do. I have the feeling the author just writes down a piece of text about some tools and than adds some gerenic r

There are ads that do this. Car commercials mostly. Especially those who don't have any message at all, showing just the product in some surreal environment for example. But you can't really say that the superbowl commercial was s

@millions of people: I guess it is somehow connected to your example of you buying something advertised every week. As I said above: my gf reads gossip magazines or consumes crap information and even advertisement but it still doesn't

So now it is me just because you seem to be a indifferent consumer with to much money? I don't know anybody behaving like you described so I can't be an outlier. At least not where I live. Too bad you decided against continuing th

I don't know in which country you live but the trailers are only a minimal part of the pre-movie show. Most of it is again ads. Ads I don't enjoy at all. Nobody in the cinema does. Thats why people are still talking and not paying

by aluhut 13y ago
But isn't it you job to have those pictures as part of your content? It's not like the ads have these 10000 types also. They also have only a few. Sometimes an ad even takes 2 pages for one item because they payed more. In the wor

Really? If I buy a car magazine I buy it for the content not for the ads. I assume that there is at least some useful information in the articles and if I want to buy a car, I also go rather for the content in the articles (tests, introduct

I somehow assumed that advertisers know that ads are annoying but they want to do it anyway because this is how they make money. Assuming that they don't know what a pain the whole concept is is somehow scarry.

Sadly it has not. I was very hoping for this. But the (few) maps are horrible for a "space" sim. The MMO fighter/item-part killed the rest of my possible motivation. I really hope Disney will come up with something real in th

Thank you very very much. This is already much better then everything I had on my phone yet :)

I don't get it. This is a clone of that very old Helicopter Game. Which I played for some hours then never touch it again. What is it that people are so addicted to? I am really looking for some clever games I could play on my phone (W

The latest spot with Red Bulls Stratos made me think: where do you want to go from there? We've seen those things can handle a jump from space. You can't do that. Nobody can do that anymore. This is the ultimate thing. Everything

Doesn't anymore. They had one then closed it down saying that: "it didn't work out for them". I guess it was good enough when they were new. I'm curious how they made it on top of HN today. They are not new, the con

Sure but since they have been working as expert witnesses for the government and similar and they know what they are talking about, it will be hard for the state attorney to make it disappear. Media will play a major role here too and if y

In my opinion Metro was bad. I couldn't see anything useful in this UI. It was an unbelivable waste of time every time I had to use it. I understand that for MS it would have been great to have one OS for multiple devices but it did no

Great platform. I hope you add more languages soon. My english is not good enough but I could provide you with 2 east european languages and translate them into german. Also payment in BC or similar would be great.

Yes recently we've (again) learned how a free market helps us all irony off . How come you are generalizing your criticism against all kind of government involvement? It's simply not true that all kind of involvement automaticall

Strange there are some phones who are cheap and don't have bloatware or less bloatware. How is this even possible with your theory? I'm sorry but I don't buy that marketing propaganda anymore. I am also sure if you could give
