Journal: the new slashdot

I've been reading /. since 97, I had an account but I never used it and then changed jobs and lost it but people wrote smart stuff here. So along comes the 2011 interface and now it's unreadable if I don't sign in. What a stupid change. So now I have an account and mod points and /. is a chore. I had no idea! The spam at 0 is unbearable and moderation is work.
