Microsoft copies rdrama's slur filter and launches "inclusiveness checker" for Word 
aevann/carp did M$ pay you all reparations for this?
Microsoft has launched an “inclusive” spelling tool that offers politically correct alternatives to commonly used phrases.
The “inclusiveness checker” highlights phrases or words the firm believes could offend someone based on their gender, age, ethnicity or sexual orientation.
The Word feature, which is able to look for “socioeconomic bias”, then suggests alternatives deemed to be more “woke”.
Among the suggestions are changing Postman Pat to “Postal Worker Pat” as the former “may imply gender bias”.
It also recommends amending “Mrs Thatcher” to “Ms Thatcher”. In addition, it proposes users change “mankind” in Neil Armstrong’s “one giant leap for mankind” to “humankind or “humanity”.
Other words to change include “headmaster” (Word suggests “principal”), “master” (“expert”) and “manpower” (“workforce”).
The new spelling function has been rolled out on the latest version of Microsoft Word in Office 365.
When switched on, spelling mistakes are underlined in red, grammar errors in blue and "inclusiveness" issues in purple.
Some Twitter users praised the checker as a neat tool that will help people overcome “subconscious biases”.
Digital strategist John Bull wrote: “Your spellchecker will now help you to start overcoming your subconscious biases.
"It’s a brilliant feature. I wish they’d make more noise about it."
However, others criticised the tech giant for “cowering to the woke brigade”.
In a statement, Microsoft said: “Microsoft understands that not every Editor suggestion may be suitable for all users and all scenarios. That’s why we let users be in control of their final output. Editor is a completely optional tool that users can turn on or off at any point. Editor does not make any autocorrections.
“The user has control over which suggestions they choose to use, if any. They will be able to turn on and off each one of them individually.”

It's many years since I last read Nineteen Eighty-Four (it may even have been before the actual year) but I'm sure there's something in there about how one purpose of Newspeak is to render wrongthink impossible by removing the very vocabulary in which it could be thought.

You have to turn it on yourself and it just gives you suggestions. I guarantee you that absolutely no one will use this, it's entirely for publicity, and it'll be scrubbed within a few years.

Yeah because libre office is just that good.
In the entirety of internet history from its inception til it’s inevitable death there will always be that Linux strag who can’t resist “err derr muh distro switch to red hat Linux bro. You only have to type 500 lines into the terminal to install libre office that’s has almost everything Office 1995 had!”

I think there's the reason why. I did run linux in parralel with my windows build for shits and giggles but had to abandon it because neither MS nor Adobe support it and that's a no - go for me. Games that ran natively in Linux ran great. I also didn't want to frick around with Wine and the Terminal. The terminal I could learn but I found there were too many instances of me looking up forum posts where people would post "OK just type these commands into the terminal and don't worry that you don't know what they're doing and that they run at a really low level in your OS it's cool trust me bro".
