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.

Shit like this is why we need strong regulations for anything that is a medical device that is depended on by people. I don't give a shit if it isn't profitable anymore, these companies need to support their customers that may be significantly impacted if their devices don't work.
