Cox: "XFree86 is hard to get involved with usefully, resistant to
cool ideas and strongly wedded to an occasional not rolling regular
release model. ... X has to evolve, X has to do cool stuff, X has to
let people break stuff, X has to delegate trust to driver maintainers
far more. ... As a driver maintainer X is a painful project, not
because of the code ... but because of the project structure and lack
of delegation."

Alan Reiter on MSN watches: they will
suck
01/23/2004 02:20 PMDo those MSN SPOT watches stand a chance? Mobile data pundit Alan
Reiter says (
this) (
and this),
summarized by BB reader John Troyer:
- They're big and ugly
- They need to be recharged daily
- They crash and sometimes die when shocked with static
electricity
- They have to be turned off on planes
- Coverage is spotty compared to pagers and mobile phones
- News blurbs are 25-word useless snippets
- You have to tell MSN when and where you are traveling for it to
work away from your home area!
- Nobody's *ever* made money selling generic headlines, weather and
sports via wireless.
Reiter also says:
"However, syncing with MS Outlook is useful, and Reiter
does believe they could catch on if Microsoft repositions to emphasize
the fun aspects: downloadable watch faces, games, etc. ... [The
watches] look as if they were designed by the Borg, on a very bad day.
Many years ago Motorola introduced its first pager watch, I was there.
I was pretty excited about the product. But when I spoke with a
Motorola executive, he said the company wasn't sure whether the target
market would view the device as a smallest, sexiest pager or as the
world's ugliest watch. Unfortunately for Motorola, the view was the
latter. Pager watches have generally died quick or lingering deaths.
But the operative word is "death."

Alan Dundes dies while teaching. The world-renowned folklorist, 70,
tackled everything from
religion
to
po
litical jokes with an infectious enthusiam that
endeared him to students, academics, and laymen alike. Dundes
was often contacted by reporters looking for scholarly
explanations of
popular culture. His warmth and humor shined through in his
speech to UC Berkeley's Class of 2002,
characteristically full of wise words and wisecracks. Those wishing
to share thoughts and memories of Prof. Dundes can do so at

Alan Moore on our modern distopia
Alan Moore on our modern distopia
07/22/2004 02:31 AMSalon has an excellent interview with Alan Moore, the man behind
Watchmen, From Hell and other canonically awesome funnybooks. Moore
talks distopian politics:
One of the reasons we singled out media in "V for Vendetta" was
because it is one of the most useful tools of tyranny. We invite it
into our own home every night; I'm sure that some of us think of it as
a friend. That might be a horrifying notion but I'm sure there are
people who think of television as perhaps one of their most intimate
friends. And if the TV tells them that things in the world are a
certain way, even if the evidence of their senses asserts it is not
true, they'll probably believe the television set in the end. It's an
alarming thought but we brought it upon ourselves. I mean, I think
that television is one of the most diabolical -- in the very best
sense of the word -- inventions of the past century. It has probably
done more to degrade the mind and intelligence of its audience, even
if they happen to be drug addicts or alcoholics; I would think that
watching television has done more to limit their horizons in the long
run. And it has also distorted our culture.
TV and politics have always made inevitable bedfellows, but the
results have been disastrous. Look at the situation we have now. Let's
say that tomorrow someone who is a political genius were to emerge --
and I'm not expecting this to happen, but say that it did. Say that a
politician emerged who seemed, for once, basically competent, who
seemed to be able to do their job as well as the average cab driver,
comic writer or journalist. If they were the most intelligent,
visionary, humane political thinker in the history of mankind, but
were also fat, had some sort of blemish or something that made them
less than telegenic, we would not be able to elect them. All we're
able to elect are these telegenic, photogenic crypto-Nazis. As long as
they look good. I suppose it's too early to go into my rant on Ronald
Reagan? That would be tasteless.
