Well, they do look utterly unbearable. And that made me go look at the user control panel to see how the comment summary is. It's really wonderful to not be able to see what replies you've gotten on your posts, or get a summary table by story of your posts. That just reeks of feature improvement. This is not a good design, and I can't see myself continuing to use slashdot if they changed over now.
Yeah, except I don't actually visit those sites, and when I end up there, I usually have to spend 5 minutes setting up adblock rules to make using the site bearable. There's a lot of studies that say that users rarely read more than the first few lines of an article before moving on. Those studies always seem to be about "modern" whitespace and ad-filled garbage, where your eyes roll off the unreadable tiny corner of the site with content, and to the links. Where you leave.
Going back to a design from 10 years ago would give them less opportunity to hide adverts and trackers in the code. It's much easier when the site code is needlessly complex and hard to analize.
That is absolutely part of it, and part of it seems to be the %of screen that is ads. More real estate=more eyes=more mind control=less reason to ever visit the site.
Yes, but the natural inclination with dependent clauses is to refer back to the original subject of the sentence, which leads to a situation where(omitting the actual predicate) you get an interpretation of "pilots who wanted surface2." In this case the best solution is to break up the 2 main ideas you have into two independent clauses; it possibly being one of the few appropriate applications of the semicolon.
I have to agree, looking like every other "news" site that provides no news is not a good place to go. It deigns to promote everything except what we come to the site to see above the actual stories, and pushes the stories themselves into a narrow column that limits how many you can fit on a screen at time(presumably to boost ad-to-content ratios on screen). Were it not for the fact that I can adblock the header and the whole right column, I'd leave and never come back.
See, but Microsoft research actually has some great ideas, but the corporate leadership seems to always insist on chasing the previous latest thing, after the markets have established themselves.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. Does every competing hospital in my region need to run its own MRI machine(and yes, that's the biggest use of helium) wasting dozens of kilograms of liquid helium a year? That won't lower the price of my procedure substantially, but it does throw away literal tons of the most irreplaceable resource on the planet.
When it counts, you can always count on congress to come together, and do the wrong thing.
Since gamers today are basically anyone who has the utterly amazing skill of being able to get bored long enough to reach for a CD, how about we leave them off the listed of request people, thanks.
Slashdot Mirror
Well, considering even posting in ASCII is "coming soon", I wouldn't count on it.
No, see, we have too much attention span right now. Gotta dumb it down a few levels.

Your ambiguous phrasing leads to the most natural parsing of your statement being the opposite of what you intend.

I've heard people say this not as a joke before.
They aren't closed systems. That's the end of that.
Cruise missiles go a long way in expressing customer dissatisfaction, I guess.
"I'm cranky, off-topic, and immediately conclude people who aren't as dumb as me are a category of people I hate."
"I'm cranky and off-topic. Listen to me because of how much I hate those I disagree with"
Comparison to any other first world nation?
I consider the number of machines we keep constantly running at super-cooled temperatures compared to the overall usage rate a waste.

I think you need to retake anatomy. You've got the wrong part of the digestive system for bile.
Giving apple credit for things they didn't do is pretty much the point of an apple fan.
That's essentially what the review said, if you bothered to read it. Just a dry republication of RFCs with no interesting information added.
Pre or post re-normalization given average shift?
They'll meet you halfway. Just go to the middle of the Atlantic, and tread water until they show up.
Now that those brand-names raise only bile for me when I hear them, it figures the accountant class would value them.

Well, you can use windows to false-flag yourself as a good-little-citizen.
