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 like self checkout. I struggle with talking to people and it can really drain on me so it's a godsend to have if I only need to run in for a few things.
People are using it to steal because people can't afford the basic necessities anymore and we've lost a shit ton of our purchasing power.
Agreed. Governments need to put a stop to greedflation, get employers to pay people better and tax the ultra wealthy more.
I think that's a good start if electoralism can get us that far. That does sound a whole lot better than the way we have it now
