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.

Laughing in Fairphone
The main problem with Fairphone is... It won't come to the US. However, I am very happy that this will affect Apple, because I am making the switch from Android to iOS. I know that Apple won't be stupid enough to have two separate plants, one to make EU Compatible phones, and one to make Global phones.
The costs for such a thing would be inordinately high even for Apple.
Nah, the main problem of the FairPhone is it's water resistance. Which is the lowest of low. Not quite sustainable in that regard: youre always one wet pocket away from disaster.
