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.

Nice work Dell.
You're keeping the people willing to make sacrifices to keep their jobs. You're keeping the most desperate, most readily exploitable people, and getting rid of anyone who won't tolerate your abuse.
