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.

Beehaw is really my only social media unless you count personal discord servers, so not a result of doom scrolling in my case. I have just seen what hyper capitalism does to new tech (looking at you, AI). But yeah, good point, in this case labor displacement is more of a concern. The article mentions requiring servers still, so that is what brought to mind the Amazon grocery stores.
