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.

Just to counterbalance some of the disagreement replies you've got - I agree with you, it's scary how many people are happy to be ageist, even when they're so progressive on other forms of equality. If you can control people based on how long they've been alive, that's very dangerous in several ways, both to the people who's autonomy is being stolen, and to others who it sets a precedent for.
