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'd add the caveat that some technologies are more political than others, too.

Anyone who says they are or claims to be “neutral” or “centrist” simply means their ideals align with the status quo.

Or frequently "I actually find politics too boring and complicated but don't want to admit it".
