“A cell phone designed by the slashdot beta team would have tiny buttons on a big white field, and after pressing three buttons, you would have to click to expand the name. No seeing the phone number. And the users who protested would be called neckbeards opposed to change.”

Nuff said.

I’ve been there since it was Chips&Dips (my slashdot id: 458). Pretty sad to see all this stupid beta shit going down. I think the thing I don’t like about it most is that I still have to scroll, endlessly.

Would be nice to see /. rise again .. maybe we just need to remember its there and start using it again so it gets better.. maybe not.
