Well, yeah! we already know that Washington DC is infested with leeches. It's what it is well known for. I don't see how anything is entirely new there.

That is a really insightfull view of the situation. I think we need to closely consider this.

I believe they LET / ASKED him to keep donating after the usual Age cut off date because they needed his blood and he was a very good producer of what they needed. But he finally reached the age where even the blood bank said "yeah nah Maaaaaaate! thanks! been wonderful, but we really don't want to kill you so this is your last"

I like the idea! Although... I don't know.. there is something scratching at the back of my brain trying to tell me this would be highly unethical! I'm unsure why i feel that way! Greater humans than I would have to debate that question!

Brilliant idea!... I mean, humans have lived for hundreds of thousands of years without Air Conditioning!... it was only in the last 100 years or so that we have been installing AC in buildings.
This is a totally inspired solution!.

Civilian GPS equipment is actually designed to cut out above a certain velocity and altitude. Generally the velocities and altitudes involved in weapons delivery applications. This is, of course, designed to prevent somebody building an ultra cheap Balistic Missile guided by GPS OR an ultra fast rocket propelled missile guided by GPS. Go too fast OR too high and your guidance goes from accurate to estimate to guesstimate to "ooh, look at the flowers"

What DOES synergy taste like?

You probably want to steer well clear of Grand Theft auto as well.
Roller coaster Tycoon might be one to invest in
Or Open Transport Tycoon
Flight Simulator X could also be reasonably innocent.

I read this as EA saying something like:
"Our head decision maker likes playing first person shooters and doesn't give a toss about games with well thought out storys. This game is being pivoted from the single player story line based game play to online first person shooter team combat"

Do Humans count as parasites? Maybe humans will be wiped out.

Wait.. what? How is this even on /.

Sure it talks about porn sites. Which a large proportion of /. readers PROBABLY[0] access. But apart from that, this is nothing to do with tech news etc..

Oh wait.. I'm living in the Naughties[1] back when Slashdot cared about relevance.

[0]Okay Okay Petal. Not you. I know you don't access porn. I'm talking about the OTHER group of /. readers
[1] You know, 2000 to 2010.

You have to admit, though. 10,000 1 container boats would be really inefficient and would totally foul up a port. Make a really trippy Real time plot on a map though.

That should, of course, have read "The following is JUST my personal" not "juts me personal"

The Plural of Lego is not Legos, It's Lego Bricks.

I cannot find the official link on their web page but the following link points points to a number of discussions and official Lego announcements and requests.

Now the following is juts my personal reaction to the use of LEGOs.
The Plural of Lego is Lego. In the same way that the plural of a Sheep is Sheep. You don't hear somebody say "I'm going to round up my Sheeps" you hear them saying "I'm going to round up my sheep" (Actually, you probably hear them say "I'm going to round up the flock" But that doesn't help my argument)

It doesn't even have to be a $5 wrench. You will be surprised how effective a 50cm long length of scrap ReBar is in the negotiation process.
