"Since web forums are better, it should be ridiculously easy to only see the 30 you have not read without having to wade through the 20 you've already seen? Um... no. Usenet, on the other hand, has been able to only show you unread articles since 1981. So much for progress."

Usenet is good.

To post a comment here, you need to:

Configure a newsreader¹ to connect to the server koldfront.dk on port 1119 using nntps (nntp over TLS).
Open the newsgroup called lantern.koldfront and post a follow up to the article.

¹ Such as Thunderbird, Pan, slrn, tin or Gnus (part of Emacs).

Or, you can fill in this form:

Name	Email

To protect against robots, a little arithmetic:+=
