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.

Yahoo was owned by Verizon up until 2021, so it shouldn't too surprising it's still around.
You might be surprised to learn that people still pay AOL (which was also part of the Verizon purchase/sale) and is part of Yahoo...
Just because the imaginary friends are passing fiat around to each other doesn't make any of it less delusional. You may as well learn such trivia about Magic the Gathering or the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Your handle leads me to believe "Magic the Gathering" or "The Catechism" struck a nerve but search me which... or both?
Yeah I'm dismissive of it because cultural hegemony matters and that culture is really trashy and founded on delusion. I didn't ask for commentary. I was trashing fiat culture.
Openly. You have accurately described my position, despite your requests that I vacate it. 🥰
This kind of behavior is antithetical to Beehaw's ethos. It's fine to be dismissive of systems, but ever user here is a person who should be treated with kindness and respect. Please do better in the future.
