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.

Don’t be a dick and be nice are more about being respectful and understanding than following etiquette.

I personally know people that would argue etiquette is a form of kindness. They unironically think there's a connection between where the spoon goes and murder. This is of course not true, but the ability to transcend your own cultural context and look at humanity as a whole is surprisingly rare.

If we could all do that, then maybe specific rules would always be unnecessary. But again, that's not my lived experience.
