Texas Holdem and Winamp
I played no limit Texas Holdem Tuesday night. It was a seven person game with a $10 buy-in. The game started at 7pm and ended up going until 2am, at which point the two of us left decided to call it a quits and split the pot. Next time, we should either start with fewer chips or raise the blinds more often.
I learned something yesterday: Winamp 5 is the same as Winamp 2. For some reason I had thought that Winamp 5 was simply a new version of the abomination that was Winamp 3. If you don't choose support for "modern skins" (Winamp 3 skins) when you install it, then it's almost exactly the same. The only differences are that the preferences are arranged better, the 3D credits are a bit different, the menu has a link to the help page and it has some extra (optional) plugins. And no doubt many bugs have been fixed. So if you haven't upgraded from 2.91, do so. It's good to see that Justin left Winamp in good shape before he left AOL.
