Slashdot and SourceForge Sold, Now Under New Management (bizx.info)

kodiaktau writes with a link to today's announcement that DHI Group, Inc. (which you might know better as Dice, the company that bought Slashdot and sister site SourceForge in 2012) today announced that it completed the sale of its Slashdot and SourceForge businesses (together referred to as 'Slashdot Media') to BIZX, LLC in a transaction that closed on January 27, 2016. Financial terms were not disclosed. DHI first announced its plan to sell Slashdot Media in July 2015 as part of its strategy to focus on its core brands, as Slashdot Media no longer fits within the Company's core strategic initiatives. KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. served as the Company's exclusive financial advisor for the transaction. (FOSS Force has a short article with some more info BIZX and the sale.)

    She never fetched me slippers, but she did volunteer work, helping anorexics with recovery, building urban farms with me to help feed the homeless, that sort of thing. I was very proud to support her, and she appreciated being able to do what her compassion told her to do instead of a boss.

    And she was proud to take care of me, because she knew my work makes the world better for everyone on earth, but I'm too stoic and tend to forget to eat for 16 hours when my head is pluued in.

    The really fucked up thing is, you can't concieve that giving a woman such a life is a gift, not a curse. Like working 40 hours a week for some rich bastard is the be all and end all. You know it's rich men who are grooming you to think that way, right?

    When every man in town is working for you, enticing women to neglect their role and serve you is the only way to get more power.

    And people are so stupid they buy it hook line and sinker. Reminds me of the head fuckery I experienced in the infantry, frankly.
