How about doing us all a service... (Score: 1) by fadrian@pipedot.org on 2014-08-27 15:38 (#2QQ2) ... and scrape Slashdot instead. Then we don't have to include that beta-infested site in our RSS feeds any more.<P>I know, you'd get your ass sued off by Dice. Frankly, Pipedot needs to survive on its own merits and user base. Besides, scraping sites doesn't cut it, because you can always just subscribe to an RSS feed of the original site - there's no value add. Aggregation without further processing is valueless. If you want to scrape, at least filter for salience to your community - that adds value. Re: How about doing us all a service...

I'm rocking classic slashdot without any issues.
