So where does the blood go? The demo video shows an extreme bleed. Like a artery has been cut or something. Sure, you seal the blood in but wouldn't you still bleed out internally? Like if you cut your femoral and gel up your leg. Would you

I have a big screen and I didn't see any of the social ad's or even the pop up at the bottom. It was only going back and actually opening my eyes that I noticed it. I think this is why such buttons are so ineffective. They have been used so

I feel Chrome is becoming the new IE. Firefox always works. I keep finding obscure bugs in Chrome. I report them. They are confirmed by 3+ people. 9 months later issues remain unfixed. It feels like all development is targeted at new featur

Really? Everything is modeled by a person? I thought it was done with magic. I haven't heard of programmer art. Why would a programmer work on models? Perhaps the game demo is using stock models or something but it seems strange that you wo

What is wrong with the Minecraft? The game has a blocky style to it. The artistic direction of the game suits it perfectly. The issue I have is that this game appears to have no graphical style or artistic direction. It looks like an incred

This isn't clearly on boxes though. Look at Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Electronic-Arts-Simcity-PC-DVD/dp/B0... It doesn't say anywhere that you must have an internet connection to play at all. Amazon add this text. "Some customers ha

I am going to rant about graphics here. The graphics on this game look 8 years old. A game doesn't need to look fantastic to be good but surely a new game should have good graphics. I am not talking about realistic graphics. Simply esthetic

Its funny that Mirror's Edge has been brought up. I literally completed it yesterday. I am trying to go through my back catalog of unplayed games. Ran through it on the PS3 I think it had the makings of a fantastic game and was let down by

I would like to say this means I won't buy an EA game but considering how many good franchises they own that would just be a lie. I was going to pick up Sim City. I remember playing it years ago and I loved it. I thought this would be aweso

Its possible but I don't see how sending essentailly a flying camper van on a 1000 day mission will bring anything new to the table apart from seeing how crazy 2 people get in a confined space for such a long time.

As someone who has a stutter. Good for them. I will check out the product later. Somewhat unrelated. I really hate how you cannot see a web version of the Apple store. If I click the link app it tells me to install iTunes. I don't want to.

While very interesting I don't see the point of not landing on Mars. It seems like a long way to go for a bit of sightseeing. Humans have only landed on the moon once. I would have thought going to moon more often. Establishing some sort of

Why put your age on this? I am sure someone on HN did something of this quality when they were 15. You only need to put your age on dating websites. As for the video. Its alright. I don't really get the product. The person is using an iPad

The trouble is you cannot make a business out of this. Imagine if Valve did this. I brought Half Life 3 for £30. I then launch a web store and sell it for £15. I make a few hundred thousand selling a half price copy of a full price uncopyri

The initial responses by moderators were fine and correct. They met the complaint with skepticism. The fact that the guys email was blah.dropbox@blah.com meant it was a possibility that another site had been compromised and the email matche

Beyond this wouldn't it provide good information on the effects of a comet impacting a planet. We have a bunch of stuff on or above Mars. Isn't there something to learn by seeing the impact with probes so close? Or do we know everything the

The reason a lot of people pirate stuff is because they lack a legitimate option? Take Game of Thrones. You cannot afford or justify the cost of the TV package. You enjoy the show. Your friends always talk about it the day after it is aired

There are really 2 types of piracy. Non-destructive and destructive. I believe the majority is non-destructive. People download things which they either do not have access to or do not value enough to pay for. If the option wasn't there to

This is what I was thinking. Not every site that has had its url spammed across forums and in comment-spam did it themselves. The other side of black hat SEO is destroying competitors by triggering Google penalties against them. I used to r

The best direction for App.net would be to make developer accounts free. You are building a platform, you want lots of apps. It doesn't make sense to charge developers $100/year. These are the people who are going to innovate on your platfo

While a few people have mocked this I think it contains some important ideas. 1) Focus on one project at a time. Resist the urge to get sidetracked. 2) Feel free to take a break from your project if you start to lose motivation. 3) Only cha

I thought that all the developer time they are saving would go into improving the browser and only a small number of people would be contributing to WebKit. I.e. browser improves faster as less time is spent working on the browser engine. N
