Slashdot features an article that tells us The Peoples Republic of California has struck again:

The County of Los Angeles actively promotes and is committed to ensure a work environment that is free from any discriminatory influence be it actual or perceived
...
One such recent example included the manufacturer's labeling of equipment where the words "Master/Slave" appeared to identify the primary and secondary sources. Based on the cultural diversity and sensitivity of Los Angeles County, this is not an acceptable identification label.

People who work on computers will be groaning, while others may be puzzled. Master-Slave is a common technical term when talking about one-way communications controlled by a primary, well, controller. I'm actually surprised it's taken them this long.

Update: Always read the comments, wherein I found an even better example of moronic idealism so completely typical of college campuses everywhere:

Members of Feminist Majority, Queers & Associates, and the Center for Gender Studies organized [a panel on bathroom design] as part of the Coalition for a Queer Safe Campus. “Going to the bathroom is a moment where definition is very important in choosing a door,” said Mary Anne Case, one of the panelists.

She pointed out that many women’s restrooms have a caricature of a person in a dress on it. “Going into it implies that we are willing to be associated with that image. There are only two [images] to choose from. This moment involves an act of self-labeling.”

Enjoy college while you can folks, because you can't keep this Eutopian muddle going when you have to hold a real job.
