Slashdot Discussions Now Include Roulette Video Chat 192
It's been a long time coming, but we're pleased to announce the latest updates to our discussion software. We've been paying a lot of attention to what other websites have been doing in the space, and as we are only too happy to steal good ideas, from now on all Slashdot stories will now be accompanied by a Roulette-style webcam video chat. In testing, we've discovered that Slashdot users are amazingly likely to engage in informative, troll-free discussion when presented with the video image of one of their peers. This new addition to Slashdot nicely rounds out and improves the discussion experience for all users.

Indeed. Though I did get a chuckle out of the "don't click next or I will root your computer" sign.

Right, seriously. I have people holding note pads asking for mod points, and another guy took his trousers/pants off. Please, slashdotters!

That's only possible if there is a permanent record made. If the image isn't published then you are _slander_ to get man boobs.

I always read Slashdot with my cock in hand, so I suppose this means that Cmdr Taco actually read that reader survey form I filled out last year.

I'm his admin, and I am really wanting to know why he's tying up the work servers... Honestly, he came in this morning with about 600 feet of rope and has been tying onto all the servers since 9:00am. he wont stop, and has locked himself into the server room. Security cant get him out and I'm about 5 minutes from hitting the halon system to end it all.
If you want to save his life, please talk him down, he keeps talking about how the devil on slashdot's new video made him do it..

This is the *STUPIDEST* idea I've seen in a long while (other than, say, the idea that the tea baggers live in the real world).
AND I see no way to turn it off.
Did I mention I hate flash? And are you guaranteeing on-site, 24 hr maintenance, when we get infected from an infected flash video?
mark, who has his setting at "old style" slashdot

Once again, proof that Apple knows best and by removing flash from the iPad has saved you from the evil it brings.

"...the SWFs turn off until I click them..."
Better luck then me. All the Single White Females I come across turn off the moment we share the same room.
