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.

Not only is it completely useless for all but the simplest of summary tasks, but I also don’t need it so much that some “colossal” skuM needs to build their own EPA-violating methane burning power plants to provide that uselessness to my home computer. Diminishing returns doesn’t begin to spell out how little use this is to the user.
