Re: Self-control was: Proposed sci.electronics.design club


It's all about signal and noise. Some sources are all noise and no signal, so why not block those sources?

My opinion is; If you don't want to read posts by one person, then don't click on them. No-one is holding a gun to anyones head forcing them to read posts. It doesn't take much self control to just ignore them. 


A kill-file eliminates having to go through the extra motions of
deleting the posts.

I just don't bother touching them. Right now SED has 15,457 posts unread posts in my newsreader :)
