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.

Sadly yep. Micro Center is just about the only PC component supplier I'll buy from nowadays, but I have to drive like 4 hours to get to my nearest one
Oh, the irony that enshittification has led to not trusting online tech firms to sell tech items online.
Checking in from Vancouver Island. Nearest one is 26hrs away.
I did love them when I was living in California and could be there in an hour. Now I take my chances with online sellers like Amazon.
