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.

You don’t have to play rap music and apologize for slavery to make them feel welcome.

i'll preserve this quote for people who disagree that the OP's post is needed, or who think there isn't racism on the Fediverse. it's insane how many of you are demonstrating the point.
