Seriously, this just pisses me off. I just find it amazing the lengths some people will go to whine about discrimination! Discuss!

yeah, i just read that article too. even if they do change it, techs will still refer it as "master and slave" drives. So what's the point? Unless my job is on the line, i am still going to call it "master and slave" drives!

If I did not know the date, I would have guessed April 1st. I think I'm going to file a complaint about martial arts. The black belt is higher than the white belt. RACISM!

By trying to protect against discrimination, they make themselves the victim of it. GG!

OMG! WTH IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE IN LIFE! Gah! Its terminology not an actual slave-master relationship. The master tells the slave to do this and the slave does it no questions asked. Whats the problem here? Last time I checked computers didnt have feelings.

Har!

These kinds of people make me laugh. They recently made the basketball team at my school get new shorts since we had a head of a Warrior Brave the side since our team name is the Warriors. A parent complained that we were depicting Native Americans as a warrior like people. I just wonder if anyone would have complained if we had put a mean looking Viking warrior or a knight. That would be depicting their respective cultures as warriorlike as well.
