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.

about 50% content is like this, no matter what view you select. I think /r/pics has the right idea; it is so dominating. Other subs should change their post to be like this (with their own messages) I think.

Also, what sub did spez mod in 2008?

I agree. I will continue despising him for being a nutjob prepper, restoring the KiA sub after the founder deleted it (because even he saw it as a toxic shithole) and protecting the brigaders from t_D because "vAlUaBlE DiScUsSiOn".

That god damn sub was the start of the fall of that site. They were openly allowed to brigade the rest of the sub, manipulate voting, and spew constant hate speech and blatant misinformation, all so spez could keep his new bots and Russian trolls. Reddit really never recovered from it and I'd go as far to say that site was one of the main causes of the insurrection.
