A celebrity in the computing world. Kevin Mitnick has passed.

May he rest in peace.

Obituary

The documentary Freedom Downtime is about Kevin and his hacking crew. It's a great doco.

Here is another gold nugget comment by Sinéad O'Connor in reply to an invite by Piers Morgan to appear on his show, which I have hidden as a spoiler due to possibly being NSFW is some circles;

its hard for many of us to fathom 56 because to some of us 56 isnt far away or its passed and we're... 'fine'

we cannot imagine her stresses, the fact her teenage son died... and although she was a famous artist she may have had fame come from other than her music

she told the truth and the world didnt want to hear it and they directed their hate towards her

she's a hero

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To peeps like me, he was GOD!!!!!

What a huge shame - nobody did EM quite like Klaus..

'Sequencers are beautiful!' - Oh yes indeedy and I shall play Crystal Lake in memorium.. (look 'em both up, they really are beautiful)


Indeed, there is no one like Klaus Schulze and nothing like his unique sequencer wall of sound. As an adept of electronic music I consider his passing a great loss. Unlike most of the tired rock dinosaurs Klaus' recent albums were fresh and innovative.

Good bye Paul Reubens aka Pee Wee Herman. He was a great comedy character and innovator.
