'Master' and 'slave' computer labels unacceptable, officials say
Full Story HereQuote:
Los Angeles officials have asked that manufacturers, suppliers and contractors stop using the terms "master" and "slave" on computer equipment, saying such terms are unacceptable and offensive.
Yeah when i came home my hard drive asks me why the salesman called him a slave, my hard drive got offended. This is fu#$% stupid. People have too much power and too much time on their hands these days.

And they should also ban all equipment containing such items
as SCREWS. I mean, that's disgusting that part A should be
SCREWED together with part B. Don't get me started on those electrical
connectors that some MORON insisted on labeling MALE
and FEMALE. It's filthy.
I could complain about religious bias in operating systems, all those
DAEMONS in linux, and the ICONS in windows,
CANONICAL domain names, MAGIC numbers.
The PC is getting too PC.
