From Wikipedia:

Various replacement terms for 'master' or 'slave' have been proposed and implemented. In 2020, GitHub replaced the default 'master' git branch with 'main'.[18] Other replacement names include 'default', 'primary', 'controller', 'root', 'initiator', 'leader', 'director', 'manager'; and for 'slave': 'performer', 'worker', 'peripheral', 'responder', 'device', 'replica', 'satellite', and 'secondary'.[18][6][21][22][23] Python switched to 'main', 'parent', and 'server'; and 'worker', 'child', and 'helper', depending on context.[7][24] The Linux kernel has adopted a similar policy to use more specific terms in new code or documentation.[22] Other projects and standards have used alternative terms since their inception.

Yes. In the same way that "Master" and "Slave" have been replaced for racist engineering terminology, "Whitelist" and "Blacklist" are replaced with "Allowlist" and "Blocklist".

It's not on fire.

If you have a multimeter, you could safely check all contacts on the guitar, and ensure it has been properly grounded via a brief disassembly.

If you decide to do this basic due diligence before posting I'm sure you would be able to approach this with a more tolerable attitude.

If you just want a price, without restoration, you'd be lucky to get $100usd shipped.

Do you have a recommended deletion route?

  1. Change your email to an aliased email address. (Proton mail for instance).

Confirm the changes with Facebook.

  1. Change your password to a unique max length with alpha numeric and symbols enabled.

Confirm the changes with Facebook.

  1. Follow Facebook's guide to deleting your account: Facebook: Delete your account

  2. ~~Delete your alias email.~~ optional

  3. ~~Forget the password.~~ optional

??? Never log into Facebook again.

Profit.

Edit: as others have suggested it is important to delete your Facebook account. I have edited the above to reflect the changes.

Always on means always accountable.

Oh look at that chunk of missing video from Officer Piggins, that's a fine, probation and an audit.

Don't be so sure. Google has shown in the past that they store information typed into search bars even if the user does not commit the search.

Abuse and negligence go hand in hand.

Oh come now, I won't be needing all of the bells and whistles. I'm sure they could come up with something. :)

It's almost like, we as a global entity, need to provide these countries with the resources to protect their environment and still prosper.
