Ordinarily, I'd be happy to piss on you, but then some dog might think I owned you.

Slashdot.org = SELLOUT.ORG!
1999-06-29 17:52:08
You knew it was gonna happen sometime, didn't you? Slashdot.org has sold its community to the bucks boys for a mess of pottage. Har har har! The Dumb-Down Bundt continues its slimy slide!
For everyone who still thought that Slashdot.org was a grass-roots community, THINK AGAIN. Har! "Community" indeed! A community of dolts to be bought and sold like chattel!
This whole VIRTUAL COMMUNITY thing is making me real sick. I mean, there's something REALLY VENAL about venture capitalist fuckheads in suspenders and power ties trading communities around like stocks and bonds. Where will it stop? Can boxcars full of Net users be far behind? Who do you belong to today?
Anyways, I must applaud Commander Taco and his tribe of little henchmen! You sure managed to worm your way into the hearts of many Free Software advocates. And it paid off! Right on!
Anyways, I wish slashdot readers a lot of luck. Now go generate some content and read some ads and make andover.net real rich!

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
