Comment Re:making "conjoined twins out of young and old mi (Score 3, Funny) 165

I mean you could probably make a business model out of this. Imagine if you will for the truly rich, a toddler in a sleek backpack, circulatory system conjoined with the bearer, constantly filtering old blood in young organs. Depending on how rough your lifestyle is, you'll probably need to come in for a replacement toddler 'cartridge' once every few weeks.

More seriously, I can get behind "allow/block-list" instead of "white/black-list" ....

But why though? First of allI am for using inclusive non-racial terms in tech and science. But there has got to be some rhyme and reason to it, and blacklist does not stem from racial terms( https://www.etymonline.com/wor... ) , are we to rename black body radiation as well?

Although you may be right that it was a while ago since they released any new iThingamajig , they still market and release new versions of at least 5 products with an i* moniker.
  • iMac
  • iPad
  • iPhone
  • iPod(touch)
  • iWork

Why so sensitive? As I see it any cult deserves a bit of funpokery, and yes , that includes slashdot and its sub-cult of iProduct detractors.
