I stopped regularly reading "El Reg" years ago for this very reason. Perhaps I just grew up. It's a real shame they put up this barrier to entry as they've been behind some truly excellent investigative journalism over the years.

I can understand that. Humour is a matter of taste so I can't imagine they hit the mark 100% of the time for anybody, certainly they don't for me.

However given the weariness derived from seeing the same kind of tech issues/fails/corruption reported ad infinitum, I happily welcome an attempt at a bit of humour to lighten the mood a little.

NY Post, same issue, different fashion..

They actually just did a great piece on Congresspeople sleeping in their offices because they can't afford two houses.

Still get a "tabloids are bad" rap. A shame.
