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.

There was a sweet moment in the mid 00s to early teens where cool stuff was being made to push the envelope. Yeah they wanted to sell you stuff, but they did so under the guise that it would be something to look forward to instead of sucking every penny from your dry husk

Was this during your formative years?
