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.

I love Laporte's personality, although he's not strong technically. I feel like 90% of schtick on TechTV was to act like a confused grandpa while others did the explaining.
But it's a pretty good trick for running a balanced, and not overly technical, video stream.
Thank you for so many suggestions and taking the time to write up descriptions, really appreciate it 😊
I 100% recommend TWIT, best tech podcast I listen to.
I usually listed at 1.2x speed with gap skipping on, because they can talk a bit slow.
Really great for weekly overviews of tech news, and excellent guests.
I'll second Security Now!
Listened to it for years but kind of lost track when I stopped having to commute. Kind of miss it really but I don't find as much time for podcasts these days sadly.
I occasionally listen to twit and my only major complaints are: 1) Leo interrupts his guests too much, and 2) whenever Amy Web or Owen Stone come on I have to skip the episode...
