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 get mad that my microwave wants the date when a power outage causes me to have to set the time. it does not need to be date aware. every power outage its november 11th 2011 all over again.

That's just your microwave reminding you when its birthday is. Did you even get it a card this year?

That functionality requires a high tier subscription, and even then you have to watch 4 of the same advertisement before it says "Happy Birthday!"
