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've always been enamored with flip phones because they're the closest thing we have to a Star Trek communicator, but the current gen of foldable screens are a nightmare.

My very last flip phone was the Star Trek. I still miss how satisfying it was to hang up by flipping it closed.

Oh neat! Yeah I agree.

When my Pixel 4a was on its way out, I was seriously tempted to get a Galaxy Flip4 because there's someone who made a case turning it into a tricorder.
