85,252? Pah.

We're adding kernel contributed bios in the documentation now? Having to use a personal pronoun in a technical doc is incredibly rare.

The triplets are outliers. Statistically insignificant. Something you'd dismiss when you take a weighted average.

With baited breath I await the first pull requests that removes offensive words like "master" and "slave". And then the incredible outage that occurs because disks don't work anymore.

If I had mod points, I would upvote the crap out of this.

Not all of us, bub. I'll be somewhere grabbing popcorn and switching systems to OpenBSD or something. The snowflakes haven't infected that project yet.

I bet they assume you can do it by using a crap-ton of unicode emojis. Or something.

I'm looking forward to the shit-slinging on the mailinglists because someone made a comment that hurt some fee-fees. But yes. I'm of the same mind as my compilers and interpreters. They don't care. Neither do I.

Or, grow a skin and fix your damn code.

Decisions, decisions. Protect fragile ego's from entitled children and get nothing done, or state things like they are and/or come off as a jerk in the process, while getting shit fixed... I'll take the latter.

Both things are irrelevant. Compilers really don't care. Neither does hardware.

..or any other opinion that isn't politically correct or "hurts feewings".

We were here first. Get the hell off my lawn.

No clue. But they could have cut out complete swaths of text just by stating "We don't care what you are, what you do, or what your opinions are. Just show us the code. If it's good, we'll take it. If it's not, we'll see what we can salvage". All this fluffy bullshit is just that. Fluffy bullshit.

Patch rejected because the use of pointers is offensive. Pointing is rude, you know?
