 StylinGreymon is also black. Is Geekhack diverse enough now?

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Going through The many faces of Geekhack to see how diverse we really are.
More diverse than I thought.

Yeah why would you do that to someone. You're basically pre-emptying their wallet.

Well, he is always talking about all the overtime he works so maybe he has a wallet to empty, the major problem is that I don't know if this black man in his 50s would be interested in keyboards though, so I'll have to try and introduce him to Off Topic first.
