I wanted to see if there had been any visible decrease in quality. Doesn't look like it. There's surprisingly little difference between this and the regular frontpage.

I'd be more curious to see the difference on a highly-emotional news day -- election, war, disease -- that kind of thing. Would the old guard stick to tech-related material? Or are they as vulnerable to highly-charged stories as the noobs?
In all honesty, there really isn't much going on in the way of external-to-hacking events in the world right now.
