“I’m going to be annoying you until you do something about it”

You call that annoying? Annoying would be not functioning at all unless you choose an choice... or even worse. Go the Github route and specifically force you to use anything other than master.

Git doesn’t care if you:

Right... So why are you attributing Github = Git... When It's clear that's not the case.

Correct... So put EVERYONE into one basket... Or split everyone up into multiple baskets...

Now I dunno about your mom... But mine told me to not put all my eggs into one basket.

Why retcon something that hasn't been used in over a decade? ATA is dead.

So in a git commit (since they mentioned branches)... What's the slave? Since your the one gatekeeping the word you should know right? How come Git can't be Master in the context they provided when there is no existence of a slave commit?

can you point where ANYTHING is recommended at all there?

Cause it simply says that you can change the name. But "master" is the default. That doesn't sound like a "recommendation" at all. But just making people aware since some repositories try to force things like "Main". Almost like the repo you're using might be enforcing shit that Git in of itself doesn't give a shit about.

No. I'm just not willing to attribute a COMPANY as the sole owner/stakeholder in a protocol that honestly has very little to do with them.

Just because Github does something, doesn't mean that they represent git.

Parent/child is probably a better way to describe this kind of relationship.

Not quite as child presumes a ultimate reliance on a parent.

In master/slave (harddrive configurations) you can promote EITHER drive to master and use the other as slave. It doesn't matter which is master. Just that they both configured correctly in regards to the other.

Parent/Child doesn't really accommodate for that quirk.

Github != git.

there was a brouhaha over a decision to remove a Native American woman from the packaging. Same result, it’s still in the butter section of the market.

Sure same result in that Indians are now LESS representated in society. We're seeing the Indian populations push back now on the idea that all the symbolism surrounding them should be removed. Example: https://www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/sports/native-american-organization-redskins-name/

We don’t share multiple devices on a single channel anymore - SATA, PCI-E, these techs have only one device per channel (or only a certain number of channels dedicated per device).

Right... This desire to change verbiage on a dead technological concept is kind of stupid. I taught in an R2 institution. This topic DOES come up. And nearly verbatim it was "While it's unfortunate naming convention existed... we simply don't operate that way anymore." It was never a problem.

All this other shit people keep bringing up like git branching... "Master" was a shit name for the main branch, and "slave" doesn't appear at all. So that's not even relevant and I simply don't understand this aversion to words just for the sake of manufactured "hurt".

Others are saying HA... Except that Master/Slave doesn't describe any HA I've worked with. Nor the terms were used in any of them.

You've forgotten about raid0...

Given our current economic system and supposing that you can’t change it for now, how would you support a living for media creators (movies, shows, games, art, music, whatever)?

They don't deserve support if they stand behind a company that waives off liability of a death because of a completely unrealted EULA.
