I see your point, but context matters. The title is saying: “PCs are a superior kind to consoles (and macs)”. Saying that a certain type of technology is superior to another is absolutely okay, even though the same can’t be said for people. Banning certain phrases in spite of the way they’re used will do more harm than good to us in the long run. Additionally, people who constantly get so worked up about the usage of these phrases and words are the same ones who grant them the enormous power they hold over us.

Please don’t start with that again. PC master race is a perfectly fine name and I’m glad they didn’t change it. I’ll just have to make another account.

I’ve heard it’s actually employees sending the threats, not developers. Unsure if it’s true, but if it is, it just goes to show how much of an awful boss Riccitiello is.

It’s as if it was only yesterday that I watched him flip nvidia off.

I kinda noticed the first one, but didn’t think it had anything to do with taking offense. The second one I haven’t noticed at all as well as the third one (the third one is especially bullshit in my opinion).

My God, this is still going on. I’m still having trouble comprehending whether this is just a very elaborate parody. The term “master race” is not in any way offensive and even if it is (to a small amount of people) they are perfectly within their right to be offended, but not to ban other people from using it.

How effective are VPNs at preventing this? I’ve heard it recommended the most as a counter measure.

It’s still relatively new so it’s gonna take time for it to reach mainstream meme status like Arch or Gentoo.

So true! Here, have some internet points and validation!

Shoutout to dbzer0 for keeping the piracy megathread alive!

Oh, I like this even better. I hope a lot of other subs do this as well. Wonder what r/feedthebeast would look like.

That truly sucks. Yeah, some professors can be like that. I had a math professor offer bonus points to the first 3 students completed the assignment, only for the majority to cheat and just look up the answer and turn that in. It became a contest of who could copy the fastest and one student even admitted to doing it, but she just didn’t care and gave points to the cheaters anyway.

The lack of Holy C in this meme makes me incredibly disappointed.
