Comments Filter:
  • mine is right up there between Subscription and Journal. maybe it is now subscriber only?
  • https://slashdot.org/firehose.pl [slashdot.org]

    Now with an adjustable rainbow gauge at the top. Filter by gay jokes?

    • The rainbow filter lets you hide or show stories by their vote score.

      Kinda pointless right now; not enough people get in there and vote to make a difference. And posted articles seem to get a +10, so you can end up with a screen full of posted articles plus one or two potentials, even at the highest setting.
      • Oh I figured all that out, but I like making "homosexuals stole the rainbow!" jokes because... well, I mean... I wasn't really using it anyway, so I don't care. :-)

    I am using the SSL server, are you on plain http?
  • Yup. Even though I'm not a subscriber, /. has been offering to let me take a drink daily for the last two weeks. Sure enough, I have a firehose tab now, too. It's amazing to see what sort of crap people submit, that the editors have to wade through.

There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.

Working...
