How to disable slashdot autorefresh?

How to disable slashdot autorefresh?

It has annoyed me for ages that when I'm reading the slashdot main page,
from time to time new stories are automatically loaded, pushing down the
one I'm reading and making me lose my place. Recently it's gotten worse -
instead of using AJAX to update the display it actually loads a whole new
page, http://slashdot.org/?source=autorefresh.
Is there any setting or preference on the site to turn off this annoyance
and put me back in control? (I'd prefer not to resort to installing a
browser extension or using a modifying http proxy)
