ITT: Boomer tech terminology

Daily reminder that "killer app" was a common term in the 90s.

a fresh T60, crisp clean thinkpad T60.

:(

>Master/slave
What do they say now? We used it in my digital design class, and a physics counselor (unrelated incident) was saying that terminology is outdated because of the racial implications.

Master/Slave has been deemed insensitive by our corporate overlords. Acceptable varieces
include:
>Parent/Worker
>Parent/Helper
>Leader/Follower.
Tell yr prof. He's fucking racist!

>Tell yr prof. He's fucking racist!
>He
I'm not even kidding when I say she was a tranny. I asked her what made her decide to pursue a masters and she told me, "well at the time I was a male, and the Vietnam war was going on..."

You'll still hear it from lecturers who aren't complete PC nutcases and you will still see this terminology in a lot of documentation and reading material.

i dont get the meme though, see it tossed around for awhile. only boomers drink monster, or?

Nothing wrong with changing a few words around. Focus on the software and let the names of thing slide off of your back like water off a duck's.

She never brought up sjw shit, and was incredibly intelligent. She had my respect, so I had no problem calling her by a preferred pronoun.

Slightly unrelated, but I unironically bought a can of white Monster because of this shitty meme and it tastes fucking amazing.

terminal > calling it "the shell"

unless you're a retarded web developer

Does that mean you have to be obtuse and retarded on a social level? Can't you just use the word that doesn't hurt the person? Fag.

No, I'm not going to pander to their make believe views. Fag.
