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.

As long as there is an audience, people will create art. Most art is created even without an audience at all. Artists are very rarely the ones gaining big profits from their work anyway. The profits are firmly in the hands of companies and shareholders. A platform that is fairer to content creators and their audience would be great, but I also firmly believe that the negative impact of DRM circumvention and media sharing has always been greatly exaggerated by the people creating and selling DRM.
