"I don't have time to discuss politics, I'm too busy getting the master and slave drives to work together."

I never got the complaints about that. It's not inherently bad to have one thing exert complete control over another thing.. the problem is when you start doing it to people

I don't think I've seen anyone with a problem with the computing concept itself, they have a problem with the unnecessarily unpleasant and offensive nomenclature. There's lots of ways to express a leader/follower dynamic that's intuitively understandable. Hell, call them Dom/Sub drives if you want to.

There's just no good reason to invoke historical attrocity that's still ongoing to describe a concept like this.

Ok fair point and that is a really funny idea. But afaict dom/sub dynamics aren't complete control and it would be pretty dangerous if they were
