That was my first reaction on seeing this. I thought I'd have a look to see what April Fool jokes are on Slashdot, saw this and thought how pathetic it was.
April Fools on Slashdot is always lame because it's overdone and *every* story is part of it. There's real news today and it's just going to be ignored (Bitcoin just made $100 for example). It's a shame because if Slashdot raised its aim just a little, it could be back to its old glory. Instead, it is happy to ride the inertia into the ground.

Lame. This is pretty lame even by Slashdot standards.
