Sorry for OT post.
Is anyone else getting a 503 error from slashdot?

Been refreshing every few minutes but still 503.

Perhaps they've been slashdotted.

There's nothing wrong with Slashdot, man.
Try the RSS, if you can't get to the main site:
http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot

Log in, set your noise threshold to around 3 and you'll just see the
more significant posts. Saves browsing time...

Of course this won't work if everyone does it... ;)

PS: Yep, /. has slid over the past 5 years but it still has the odd ok
article...

Yes. My employer subsidises my internet, but only thru telecom.
The site was giving 503 earlier this evening but is okay now.
