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.

Either the Americans have very weird ideas about transportation or they're completely controlled by auto companies.

Consider both: we know the auto companies controlled the populace by destroying any choice. We also know that public transit is looked on as a plebes travel mode ripe for gutting at every turn so the rich (and those who are gonna be rich any day now) can benefit.
