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.

Yeah, devices like this really should be designed to do most work locally or on connected phones and only send data to the cloud when necessary. But then they wouldn't be able to farm the data for tracking, advertising, and "AI" training, which is where they make their money on these kinds of devices.
