You might be surprised to find out that kuro5hin -- k5 -- is still around. Well, not for much longer. Absentee landlord Rusty Foster (temporarily?) blocked new user sign ups and in the process somehow managed to block existing users from logging in.
Dedicated users can edit the HTML to add back the login box (or use a query string). Though once popular, K5 never recovered from the last time Rusty blocked new users (eventually relenting and adding a $5 sign up fee). RIP. Truly a Web 1.0 icon.

We don't all know everything.
Yes we do, for sufficiently broad definitions of "we".
