I almost forgot about Slashdot! Gosh, that was decent back in the day. I remember unsubscribing from their email newsletter years ago, after I noticed a consistent trend in topics being unfavourable to my ethos.
Slashdot was great and then I remember after DICE bought them they lost originality and the comments were just people meta complaining. Same feeling as you about the ethos change. Felt greasy at the end of my time there.

ThinkGeek use to be great. Still have the titanium spork I got from them for conventions and the "if you're not part of the solution you're part of the precipitate" tshirt.
