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.

And even if you were to actually get it before your rep, it's likely that neither they or anyone on their staff is tech savvy enough to understand it.

We are ruled by a generation raised when the highest form of tech in ones house was MAYBE a color tv and it shows.

Well you sure as shit better not call in and help them at least know which way most people feel on the issue then. Better just leave it alone and let them figure it out on their own with the help of some helpful lobbyists.

I spent two decades of my youth volunteering for local candidate's campaigns.

Now I'm old and tired and you can spend the time if you like.
