Slashdot has become much harder to use

I wanted to write a Slashdot journal entry on how I discovered that information I thought had been at
http://slashdot.org/~hackwrench/ once upon a time had been moved to https://slashdot.org/users.pl so I go to my journal page and can find nothing to click to start a new journal entry.
http://slashdot.org/~hackwrench/journal appears to be the same page as http://slashdot.org/users2.pl?dp=journal

I did a search for write journal slashdot but couldn't find anything useful.

Also the login button and new user button take some getting used to.


https://slashdot.org/users.pl contains the info on how many replies my messages have gotten, This is among the most useful information that Slashdot can provide, despite the statement on the page that suggests I wouldn't be interested in the page.

Funny things to say in connection with The Stanley Parable

Okay, I've pressed the key to question nothing, but nothing isn't being very forthcoming with answers. What buttons do I press to waterboard and choke nothing. Also, nothing seems to be on a hunger strike. How do I force feed nothing?

Some funny things to say about Portal 1

I really want to be revived with peptic salve and adrenaline.  What button(s) do I press to become light-headed from thirst and pass out?
I died in the furnace just like GLaDOS wanted, so why aren't the end credits running?
Okay, GLaDOS is telling me to get into the party submission position. What buttons do I press to do that?
I'm being told to go back, but I don't see where I can place portals to do that.

So I read this article on how bad the mobile web is, and thought "Its bad for people who like to read web pages with large text." I mean seriously, a lot of websites do something that makes their text reflow improperly so that it doesn't stay within the width of the window, Cracked.com also disables the scrollbar at the bottom of the window to make things even tougher.


Then there are the websites that right off the bat you get told isn't responding.

Went back to the eye doctor and she adjusted my frames. I told her that maybe a near vision test might uncover a ADD value other than the one she prescribed. She said that there's nothing magical about it and ADD values get adjusted based on years old. That sounds like more magical thinking than what I proposed.

Just how resource intensive is it to give everyone a near vision test. Years ago, the glasses I had then just bought wasn't working right so the doctor gave me a near vision test and made new lenses that were bifocal. Just recently I had to switch eye doctors, and the doctor said that I shouldn't need bifocals yet, This eye doctor didn't give me my prescription, a violation of FTC regulations. I don't know if my glasses are single focus or progressive.


Actually, the new glasses were causing me trouble when I first got them, I went back, had my vision tested again, still no close vision test and then they check if the lenses were made correctly and it turns out the left lens wasn't made according to the doctor's prescription.


Just now, I found out what the red green test is for and I had tried to look up information about the eye exam.
