You also have the problem of what people are going to do with themselves all day. Some people handle this well and others handle it very poorly.
Well I won't be on beta, that's for sure!

I apparently did. Why is "2 girls, 0 guys" okay, but "2 girls, 1 guy" is a society destroying ratio-of-single-men-to-single-women distorter? Esp. since it does a better job preserving the ratio of single men to single women then a lesbian relationship?
I would imagine the op was assuming equal numbers of lesbian and gay relationships, but un equal numbers of 1 man 2 women vs 1. Woman 2 men relations.
That's probably a fair judgement on current facts.
I just want to make sure I understand: 2 girls, 1 guy is horrendous
No, You're thinking of two girls, one cup
1) You must burp a lot more than I do. It's unusual if I burp twenty times in a week unless I've been drinking beer
I'm confused -- there's a week which doesn't involve drinking beer?
There's a reason why hundreds of attention whore's testimony about aliens and the government is floating around on the web.
fixed that for ya'
You really didn't
Allowing Internet connectivity reduces the centralized control that a totalitarian Communist system requires in order to protect the leaders and the system itself from the inconvenience of reality.
It's OK, the cable companies and telcos are trying their hardest to put the genie back in the bottle.
It's worse than the original, and that's impressive
Watson is in beta. It still lets you quote posts though unlike slashdot beta which is crap. Watson still lets you deep link to posts.
I bet slashdot beta isn't written in text code. It's just a mess of crap. But not in a retro way like slashdot prime.
You can still see how many times it's been modded, just click on the score and it'll give you the breakdown
That just tells you the percentage, same figures if you get 2 mods or 200.
Those warships and the soldiers on them don't cease to exist when not in Sochi,
FALSE
The universe ceases to exist every time I close my eyes and reappears when I open them.
Are you deaf? No sense of smell?
And yet, the number of on-topic comments hasn't increased, either. It's not that people are getting accustomed to beta, it's that they're leaving.
We're locked into the current two-party system by the very nature of first-past-the-poll voting. We're more-or-less locked into Youtube by its sheer mass: your average Joe doesn't have the server space or $$ to hold all that video content like Google does.
We're not locked into slashdot. We have nostalgic feelings for it, but that's all.
And low UIDs. Any replacement site will have to allow UID porting
We can use the blackholes generated by the super sized collider to wipe out beta once and for all.
No need. It's already approaching implosion... site traffic has been cut by a third.
Really? Slashdot users have alexa malware?
I used to get them all the time, and without anything changing, I have not seen them for ages.
I lost them 12 years ago, after modding in The first Slashdot troll post investigation. That was back in the days you got 5 points to mod with, and posts said how many times they'd been moded, rather than just an aggregate score.
The blacklist was removed several years later, probably about 3 years ago.
Since then it's been fairly regular, last about a week ago. I don't use beta as it's crap.
Nobody gives a shit about the articles themselves.
There are articles?
Slashdot is dying; Netcraft confirms it.
I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Nerd/Geek website Slashdot.org was found dead in it's internet home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss it - even if you didn't enjoy its work, there's no denying its contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.
Happiness is a hard disk.
