How about you save my progress in a cookie?

You might find this hard to believe, but I don't have a Facebook account.


I do have a Facebook account, but I'm not interested in using it here just to save. So, another vote for a cookie.


Off topic, but god I just wish Facebook would disappear. It's ironic that such a popular company with such a huge valuation would produce an immediate and significant benefit to me if it just disappeared overnight.


It begs the question, do you mean Facebook the social network, or Facebook the company? Because there are surely many benefits coming from the company that don't necessarily depend on the social network.


It's hard to imagine one existing without the other


I think one existing without the other could certainly be the case in the nearish future. Not everything they're doing is tied into the Facebook site.


Also do not have a facebook account and was bummed to see my progress gone.


Why not create one but never post onto it? That's what I did. I don't see any detrimental effects if I create an account but never use it to its full capabilities.


Or, if you want to motivate this particular developer:

"How about you store my progress in a regex! (Which can be put into a browser cookie as an afterthought.)"


Yeah same here. Clicked to a puzzle curious to play with it, saw the notice saying I need to log in to facebook, closed the tab.


Let me guess, you were playing Hack 'n' Slash, and the control flow statements didn't make sense.


Try: https://apple.com without the www part.

Update: https://www.microsoft.com also breaks.


I picked one of the demo songs, and this is what I got instead:

When I hit back on the browser, it did go back to the demo song I had chosen. I love Roxette though, so no worries, just FYI.


Thanks for letting me know! I think this is a rare bug, and I'm pretty sure it's caused by the audio element not properly loading. It's definitely on my todo list!


Apple needs to grow up and stop acting like a 12 year old.


It's a sad, sad world we live in. RIP Aaron.


Hmm... No love for bald folk?


Ha maybe we need to make more avatars. ;)


No, but I obsessively scroll down so that the paragraph that I'm reading touches the top of the viewport. The last few paragraphs become a pain of course.


Here you go, all pages merged, plus a little bonus:

Tip of the hat (repeated in 6/8) for using some of your time to save the rest of us a bit of time.


Thanks for taking the time to do this.

I came here hoping to find exactly this. Cheers.


Thank you!
