- I am Japanese. I want to share a well-known Japanese idea: 人は見た目が9割 ("people are judged 90% by appearance"). It is ironic because it goes against our common sense that substance should matter more than appearance. The intention of this idea is to emphasize the importance of first impressions.
I think the AIDMA model is still relevant. I've seen similar dashboards elsewhere, but FUBAR Daily's design keeps me coming back.
Nice work.

- This is a project where I actually kind of like the idea, but the implementation looks incredibly soulless.

- I visit HN from RSS feed. Articles are listed on my feed, but I have to click through to really read anything-—there is no summary in the RSS feed.
So I could visit HN directly and prolly save a step. But in truth, I like having one place to go. And here I’ve collected and curated all the places I like to visit. And I find it much better than using bookmarks.
Which is all a lot to say that I’d be more likely to return to visit this site if it had an RSS feed.
Obviously, part of the charm of the site is the telemetry and data widgety bits (weather, stock ticker) which are mixed in with newsy and fun bits (I love the quotes). But I can tell you with all honesty, if I make a bookmark for this site, it’s going into a sea of links.
RSS isn’t just for consuming site data without dealing with the design cruff. It’s also good as a bookmark.

- This is genuinely great. I love the focus and attitude (but of course I do). I might actually use this to keep tabs on things.

- What is it that makes all these vibe coded websites use the same font? Is there no way to change it?

- Nitpick: MacOS wasn't released first, OS/2 was. Apple System 1, however, was released the earliest.
And some of the questions are redundant because there's no list of already answered questions. I liked the questions though, they were fun to answer.

- Hallucinations galore, the 'daily digest' provided me with this gem: "Apple's supposedly revolutionary $1,199 MacBook Neo is getting schooled by $500
Windows machines that do basically the same thing without the premium"
There is no way to build a Macbook Neo for $1,199 and this is obviously snarky, auto-generated slop.

- Generally fantastic.
Critique: The summaries, while amusing, all seem to end partway through on an ellipsis. Why aren't the chaos index signals clickable? The futurism bar also has broken links.
- This is great.
Feedback: It looks like geolocation for anonymous "FUBARS" is based on IP, but the weather widget uses the browser geolocation API.
- I love how share just instantly copies the URL - so refreshingly easy and fast.
- Damn ... I'll be so glad when all this trendy shit goes away.
- front page has racial slurs, a link to goatse, and something crass about trans women. fantastic work /s
