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.

Try archiving and preserving old games not being sold? Nintendo and other video game companies will have a problem. Try archiving and preserving old text books, old books in general? Publishing firms will have a problem. Try archiving and preserving old movies and shows? Hollywood and other networking studios will have a problem. Try archiving and preserving old music? Recording labels will have a problem.
