A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was, and still am, fine with my own thoughts. I intentionally go places without my phone that I know I'll be standing around waiting. Bus stop to pick up my kid, restaurant to grab lunch, quick trip to the store. It's nice not having the option to distract myself with it and the feeling of being entirely disconnected knowing if "something terrible happened" I wouldn't be able to reach anyone instantly is a lot more calming than it sounds.
