I like techy stuff being a scientist.. shame OT will have its general IQ lowered yet futher.. oh hum, at least I can avoid US politic here!

Unless it's the politics of science and technology. :mischief:

But this will ensure that some of the articles that don't get the attention in OT will have a place to be seen.

El_Mac's going to love this :D

I'm so happy about this place.:D I hope it will be like OT without the spam and politics.

Great, just subdivide and subdivide till there's nothing less.....

Or specialize until not everything is lost in the background noise.

There's more than one way to look at this. For instance, I just doubled my daily forum browsing area ( usually I hung out in Comp Talk ). Plus I have a feeling this will be a great way to keep up with latest tech news..

Somehow, I have a change of heart about this thread :D. Though I am more inclined not to see any flames and spam though :hide:.

I'm down with this ... should the astronomy photos thread be moved here?

the question is how much of this thread will be reposts from slashdot

Or Fark if we're gonna talk about geeky news.

Most will actually be headline reposts from somewhere.

Sweet now OT just opened up 20% of its space to spam and useless polls. Now to just remember this is here......

Part of the joy of OT is the mix of people and interests. Spreading them out into their own groups spoils it.
If I want to talk to scientists all day I can do it in the lab.

the fact is we don't have a lab so this section would be well :)

If you have complaints, pls start a thread in Feedback.

And pls, no more OT-bashing here.
