Yeah...behind the times we are
Yes, this entire thread *is* about spoilers. And if anyone has their viewing experience disturbed because of reading this thread, it's their own fault.
The editors clearly indicated what the subject matter was going to be when posting the story. It was easy to opt out.
What I'm talking about however is when I go to read about Linux kernel 2.5whateverthefuckitis.32, and when cruising through the message titles, I see something like Trinity Dies.
With a franchise like the Matrix, and when a movie like Matrix: Reloaded is about to come out, a spoiler like this can be effective in almost any forum or subject.
Now, let's pretend that Matrix: Reloaded was a good movie. Let's say, a great movie. But a movie that would have been less of an experience had the plot been revealed in advance. What kind of loss is that? How do you measure that? Is this going to evolve into a kind of spoiler-warfare between the studios, where each tries to diminish the experience of the movie-goer when he goes to see the competitor's films?
I think this is really tragic.
Is this truly the only Earth I can live on?

I have not seen many of these when the database behind the site is Postgres.
As the matter of fact, have not seen many exception pages from Java/JSP coded sites recently either.
