Seconded. I want to READ stories on Slashdot. I do not want to watch another damn video, and I fail to understand why everyone seems to want to turn the entire Internet into TV 2.0 or something. Watching a video takes vastly more of my time than reading an interesting article about something, plus the intelligence level of most online video is way lower.
I've suggested to The Honchos that all videos on Slashdot should have a "video" topic marker, so that those who don't want to watch any videos, period, will be able to completely ignore them.

No interest in the videos; would rather read about technology vs. watching it.

Then why not make sure they go into tv.slashdot.org and stay there? It's essentially the same thing, and now that the infrastructure is there, use it.
Also, I apologize for my rather terse and harsh email.
