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.

Anyone who doesn’t think that the end goal for the Cybertruck isn’t military/police contracts hasn’t really been paying attention to how tech firms grow.

I’m mostly surprised that no US police departments have any of them yet.

Overpriced and underperforming, so definitely military-grade.

They're trying out in a feeder dystopia first.
