Comment Autoscroll in Firefox (Score 0) 2254
If autoscrolling is enabled in Firefox, middle clicking on pretty much any page in Slashdot makes the whole browser freeze for a while, to the point where my Ubuntu thinks Firefox is unresponsive and "darkens" the window. The scrolling feature still seems to scroll the page in the background while the browser chokes.
Not really sure what this is related to, I have never seen this behavior before.
Other than that and the "too much whitespace" issues, I think this change is not THAT bad. Just takes some getting used to, like always.
