Hacker News Reader

I've been posting to alt.cyberpunk every few months trying to get things going. I use eternal-september(.org) for my usenet access.

Several of the comp.lang.* hierarchy have activity.

There is also comp.misc which has some activity as well.

alt.hackers. It's a moderated group, but with no moderator and that's intentional. You have to be somewhat clueful to post to that group.

alt.folklore.computers

alt.obituaries

What is a s r? Alt.sex.robots?

An anagram of Scary Devil Monastery, the group that by tradition is not named to avoid summoning lusers.

alt.sysadmin.recovery. Its name implies that sysadmining is something that you "recover" from, and the content is typified by horror stories and contempt for "lusers". It's not everybody's cup of tea.
