4/28 I just discovered http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Kan and the account ~genehkan. How depressing. Did anyone here know him? What was he like? \_ motd has link to more info than wiki: http://csua.com/?entry=25306 \_ guess what. he was depressed. \_ I didn't know him but he seemed pretty nice and geeky. He was active in the XCF, but I don't think that exists anymore. \_ He told me he got to meet Lars and he had come up with a good way to move forward with internet music. Then he "suicided". \_ No, but I was friends with the Naked Guy when he was at Cal. \_ The Naked Girl lived at my coop. \_ It was really funny how fast after he died that the sysadmins of csua and xcf purged all his mail/accounts/homedirs. |

4/28 Win 3.1 was more widely adopted than Win 3.0. Win XP (5.1) was more
widely adopted than Win 2k (5.0). Now it looks like Win 7 (6.1) is
going to be more widely adopted than Vista (6.0). Is this a trend on
Microsoft x.0 versions being bad?
\_ duh.
\_ "more widely adopted" ... well... what are you basing these numbers
on? win3.0 was adopted, win3.1 was adopted, so was wfw3.11. But
wfw3.11 had few features that were used outside of the corporate
networks, so win3.1 was the "last version" of win3. Where's
win95/98/me and winnt 3.51/4 in this list?
\_ He's talking out of his ass. It's a troll. He totally failed
to take into account things like WinXP came out and was designed
specifically for the gamer market. Remember having to play
starcraft as Admin on win2k? You didn't need to do that in Xp.
It's also why gamers refused vista, not only did the RO reg
mess games up, but the filesystem layout also messed up things.
You can't analyze these "consumer trends" without thinking about
*the consumers*. |

How come she didn't go to jail?
\_ Car drivers rarely go to jail for killing people. -tom
\_ Ted Kennedy killed a girl. Dick Cheney shot a man.
\_ Ted Kennedy killed a girl. Hillary and Dick Cheney both shot a man.
\_ Wow, one out of three ain't bad, factchecker.
\_ Lesson: Don't dump Laura Bush, she'll kill your ass.
\_ Lesson, people with power get away with murder. Didn't you um
learn this a long time ago tho?
\_ "Know your rights! Murder is a crime. Unless it was done
By the Police Man. Or an Aristocrat." - Joe Strummer
\_ Who's Joe Strummer?
\_ He was star forward of the San Jose Clash |
