One thing I still love about /. are the comments: they can still make me laugh.

I'm sure you're tired of hearing this, but I downloaded Firefox 3 on my home machine, and it feels great! Feels snappier ... we'll see if it's still prone to crashing (Gmail and Scottrade's website would both crash Firefox pretty repeatedly).

Since switching to TypePad's AntiSpam free service 9 days ago, it's managed to catch over 6,000 spammy comments! Yay! Akismet was always good at catching spammy comments, so I can't definitely say one is better than the other, but they're both definitely solid products. Of course, when TypePad's is free, but Akismet's costs $50/month, I have a slight bias ;)
