nerds getting mad over a few open source projects finally replacing the master/slave terminology for processes is the most pathetic nerd shit imaginable. changing the terms affects nothing in terms of how the software runs. It literally changes nothing but creates a slightly more welcoming environment for non-white programmers.
It's incredibly sad and frustrating seeing these assholes vociferously defending something so completely unimportant.
[someone removes some negative terminology from a project]
a bunch of foss dudes who literally aren't even maintainers on the project: BUT THIS CHANGE DOESN'T COMPLETELY ELIMINATE RACISM THO?????????
@radicalrobit I mean, they're technically, agonizingly TECHNICALLY correct, just not in the way they want to be
Which is why we need to keep pushing forward and not stop or rest on our laurels
