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.

Oh god, I hate gesture-based earbuds. I painted over mine with clear nail polish because I've never once had them respond in such a way that I find helpful. Someone will invariably start yakking at me, then I have to remove an earbud, and they'll skip tracks, power down, or do all kinds of crazy shit.
Regardless, it actually is a big deal to me that I'm having unwanted ads shoved in my face the moment I launch the app. That is not acceptable, and it's disturbing that you seem to think it's normal. I pay their supposedly "ad-free" plan to get ads? Fuck that.
