I fear my slashdot joke was not appreciated. Infamously, a post on Slashdot once stated (probably 20 years ago) "OpenBSD is dead, Netcraft confirms" - Netcraft's methods were then widely ridiculed, and obviously OpenBSD continues to be very much alive to this day.

I remember reading that, but failed to make the connection (hah!). Probably a bit too tired from physical sysadmin work.
