Whoa. A slashdot link? Remember when that wasn't a cesspool, but it's been awhile. For an ars technica summary this was extremely disappointing with regards to details.

My only take away here is that we really should make H.E.B (highly educated brothers) a part of the vernacular.

I'm honestly very surprised that site is still around. Like digg.

Sorry, the term HEB is already taken by Texas groceries.

And if you didn’t know it was for “Howard E Butt” now you know and can enjoy them even more.

I fucking miss HEB.
