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.

On the article I did not found how these events were related.

The Verge seems to have moved primarily from long-ish form articles to these little "snippet" tweet-length things, and I gotta say, not a fan.

It's been that way since the redesign. Nilay went all in on building it around Twitter and then ElonGate happened, so they kinda backed themselves into a corner. Pretty good coverage of the reddit blackout though.

I ate lunch and my cat pooped, anyone else want to mention two random events?

People seem to overreact to the loss of some convenience or extrapolate problems that are not real.

A local store being closed for a day doesn't mean the concept is dead. One branch of a megastore having trouble doesn't mean the whole chain sinking. Downtime is just a fact of life. Sometimes I don't even notice that they happened.

Thats the great thing. The rest of the fediverse was fine and never had a blip.
