Purikura: The Japanese Grandmother of the Selfie

Unfortunately, as smart phone technology progressed and Japan’s demographic shifted to an elderly population, Purikura’s popularity waned. Between 2007 and 2017, annual sales fell about 30.7 billion yen. While they may have seen their golden age come and go, the booths remain popular all over Japan - and with one survey suggesting that over 90% of Japanese people have tried Purikura at least once, they don’t look like they’re going away any time soon.

3 Sports Documentaries You Absolutely Should Watch Right Now

There was a time in 2012 when NBA fans from all over were stricken with Linsanity. Jeremy Lin was a benchwarmer for the New York Knicks for much of that season, until he helped the team lock down a seven-game winning streak when he replaced a sidelined Carmelo Anthony in February of that year. Lin's popularity exploded, and though he was traded in the following offseason, his dazzling performance cemented a lasting legacy. Lin left the NBA in 2019 to play internationally, and he just announced

Ask HN: How can I recover and run my old mobile game from the 2010s?

I developed a game called "Putter King Adventure Golf" for iOS and Android back in the 2010s. It's long since disappeared from the app stores, but my son recently asked if he could play it, which got me thinking about whether it might be recoverable. I'm wondering if there's any way to find a copy of it somewhere on the web (I assume it was probably pirated at some point during its lifetime). And if I could find it, what would be the best approach to get it running again? Has anyone here succe

Nissan announces 2026 Leaf pricing, starting at $29,990

There's a new Nissan Leaf coming later this year. The third of its kind to bear the name, it sounds like an appealing upgrade. Smaller than the current model on the outside but with more room inside, it's also more efficient and finally uses a liquid-cooled battery. But we knew all that back at the start of summer. What we didn't know then was how much the Leaf will cost. As we noted back in June, pricing is most likely to determine the Leaf's success or failure. None of the improvements to thi

‘Gags the Clown’ Leans Into an Urban Legend That Maybe Wasn’t a Legend

It’s been nearly a decade since an outbreak of clown sightings frightened people, first in the U.S. and then later across the globe. A clown in the right context isn’t necessarily scary, but a random clown just appearing with no obvious purpose is horror movie material. And, in fact, some of the creepy clown epidemic of 2016 can be traced back to Gags the Clown, a found-footage indie that turned some clever grassroots marketing into a stunt that went viral. Gags the Clown came out in 2018, whic

Military Launches Website to Find Big Tech’s ‘Army Strong’ Employees

If you’re working in Big Tech and looking to make an exit, the Army is waiting with open arms. Someone’s gotta build the tech to drop these bombs, after all. Task and Purpose reports that the Army’s Talent arm has launched Detachment 201, an initiative to pull technology professionals into the military’s ranks—the latest in a growing pipeline between Silicon Valley and the U.S. Armed Forces. The Detachment 201 effort has put out the call for “top-tier, uniquely skilled technology professionals”

Ask HN: Anyone Using Augmented Reality, VR, Glasses, Helmets etc. in Industry?

Since Google Glass made its debut in 2012, there's been a fair amount of hype around augmented reality and related tech coming into its own in industry, presumably enhancing worker productivity and capabilities. But I've heard and seen so little use in any industries. I would have thought at a minimum that having access to hands-free information retrieval (e.g. blueprints, instructions, notes, etc), video chat and calls for point-of-view sharing, etc would be quite useful for a number of indust

The $230 MacBook Air Is Real, It’s a Steal, and It’s Flying Off the Shelves

MacBooks are many things — beautifully designed, reliable, sturdy, fast, and powerful among them. Inexpensive, however, is not a word you hear applied to MacBooks often, if ever. Apple is very much a get-what-you-pay-for company, and you pay for quality. Thankfully, there are shortcuts to be found, like the deals StackSocial frequently runs on Grade-A refurbished MacBooks for a fraction of their usual cost.
