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.

It's not fun anymore because instead of just doing stupid, fun shit for the fun and weirdness of it, everyone is just trying to make money.
Yep, instead of it being a playground to have fun and community, it's a Very Serious Thing^TM^ where everyone is either striving for that cash or trying to produce domestic terrorists. It's so shit.
