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.

Congratulations, you are the old 90-year-old grandpa who can't understand this stupid Internet thingy. Why is this modem making these weird and loud noises when I try to connect?!
Ha, ok. Well I think your response is rude, meaningless, petulant, and a waste of space.
But I’m really glad we have people like you on social media to remind us what it’s all about.
I was trying to get you to understand a POV by reminding you how things were 25 years ago, but clearly that idea was lost on you.
I’m afraid what you wrote was not purely what you state here, and to the extent it was, poorly so.
I don’t think I’m the one here for whom the message is lost.
