Please don't start with that again. PC master race is a perfectly fine name and I'm glad they didn't change it. I'll just have to make another account.

I've heard it's actually employees sending the threats, not developers. Unsure if it's true, but if it is, it just goes to show how much of an awful boss Riccitiello is.
Absolutely sexist. I'm honestly kind of dumbfounded by the number of people opposing this. France has done some stupid shit recently, but they are absolutely in the right here.
Come on now, just because someone is poking fun at woke culture doesn't mean they're Ron DeSantis (the guy who from my understanding wants to ban trans people and is persecuting gay people as well).
It's as if it was only yesterday that I watched him flip nvidia off.

I kinda noticed the first one, but didn't think it had anything to do with taking offense. The second one I haven't noticed at all as well as the third one (the third one is especially bullshit in my opinion).
My God, this is still going on. I'm still having trouble comprehending whether this is just a very elaborate parody. The term "master race" is not in any way offensive and even if it is (to a small amount of people) they are perfectly within their right to be offended, but not to ban other people from using it.
I think OP was referring to the communists that founded lemmy and run this instance, in which case there is no party.
Keep in mind, you are posting this to lemmy.ml, so I don't know what you expected... Maybe something like this would be better recieved on lemmy.world or on your account's instance.
It means desktop environment and window manager respectively. Windows has only one (it being the default) and is not unix, so you should probably post this elsewhere.
How effective are VPNs at preventing this? I've heard it recommended the most as a counter measure.

I see your point, but context matters. The title is saying: "PCs are a superior kind to consoles (and macs)". Saying that a certain type of technology is superior to another is absolutely okay, even though the same can't be said for people. Banning certain phrases in spite of the way they're used will do more harm than good to us in the long run. Additionally, people who constantly get so worked up about the usage of these phrases and words are the same ones who grant them the enormous power they hold over us.
