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.

Dont forget taking out an entire page ad to defame the Brooklyn Five and called for their murder
Still, americans voted him to rule them.
I'm so tired of this refrain. 49% of 64% of US voters voted for him, but even that is an oversimplification. The reality is that in some regions it is hard to vote. Waiting in line for hours. It is not a national holiday, so no pay for taking time off to wait in line. Polls often have limited times, and people in the US work too much just to stay alive. And that does not even take into account electoral college bullshit. The right has done so much to make voting hard or even impossible for some.
The US is vast and diverse, which makes hand waving dismissals like this even more frustrating.
