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.

Honestly quite shocking news given their success, but I guess it's what happens when you chase tech company profits.

Flowbee still sells 90,000 units a year and has been around since the 80s. Probably a lesson in there for Instant, I think.

Literally just bought one yesterday... Excited to see how well it will work out.

I've been using mine since 2021, and despite the jokes my friends make, no one can actually tell the difference in my hair cut. It does help to have someone that can trim your neck line and ears though

I'd thought about getting one. Had one in the 90s. If you don't have a hair cut that needs a lot of attention then yeah, nobody notices. Clean, easy, no barber.
