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.

Not really. I've never been to a shareholder meeting and never will. I buy stocks to turn a profit from dividends and appreciation not to get a chance to micromanage the company.

fair enough but if shareholders don't control the company then there might be to much of a need for the owners salary for dividends. which is why you don't buy that crap.
