Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |
Being an old-time car guy, I've been amazed that the term "slave cylinder" (operates clutch actuation)is still allowed and commonly used. In addition, the "master cylinder" controls the operation. Then there's the master key and a number of other unwoke terms still out there the PC police seem to have missed. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

They're working on it... You've probably seen/heard that some realtors are avoiding the term master bedroom or master bath. | |||

Engineering and automotive repair isn’t attractive to the politically correct types. They have gone after master/slave computer drives. | |||

Did you know that Office 2003 will install and function flawlessly on a Windows 10 machine? That's what I use and I don't feel like I'm missing anything at all. | |||

Yes. I'm still running office 2007 on my Windows 10 machine. I've no reason to change. | |||

Yup. I'm running Office 2010 on my Windows 10 and Windows 7 desktops. No problem. God's mercy: NOT getting what we deserve! God's grace: Getting what we DON'T deserve! "If the enemy is in range, so are you." - Infantry Journal Bob P239 40 S&W Endowment NRA Viet Nam '69-'70 | |||

Two of the first things I disable on any new program or OS are spell check and grammar check. When in doubt, mumble | |||

Meanwhile, their OS is a flaming wreck. Glad they’ve focused on the real problem. | |||

Guess I’ll get my white-privilege ass up, punch a grumpy in my Primary Bathroom and go into the Food-Prep Area (because I’m SURE “Kitchen” offends someone) and brew some java beans.

Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Well, that's the crux, isn't it. They're majoring in minors and making mountains out of imaginary molehills while the world burns under everyone else's feet. | |||

Serenity now! |

For anyone interested, this can be turned off in the MS Word options. Go to Options --> Proofing --> "When correcting spelling and grammar in Word" section. Choose settings and scroll down in the dialog shown to the "Inclusiveness" section and uncheck as needed. None of the options were checked in mine. I am assuming this is by default since I have never even looked for this before. | |||
