    I think it should be "Fuck beta" so we never forget the bullshit that caused soylent news to exist in the first place.

    No. It's good that there's a worthy tech news site now, and it's of no use to keep dragging the past. I like it in here and the vibe should be going on as it is, with that fresh look of 2004 :)
    Sometimes it's better to stop pissing on the graves of your enemies, and start using the toilet again.

    It could be "Michael P. Durney".

    Not the Michael P. Durney who's the CEO of Dice, but a totally different Michael P. Durney.

      Nope, won't work unless you misspell it. There was a southern rock band a few decades ago who wanted to name their band after a hated gym teacher in high school, MCA's lawyers sayd "no" he'll sue and win. So rather than calling themselves Leonard Skinnard, they called it Lynard Skynard.

      Better than "Michael P. Durney", make fun of that new mickey mouse interface and call it Micky P. Dumey.
