Everyone else agrees they are.

Really? Can I see the survey you sent everyone but me to determine this?

The story is not about a new breakthrough or even Energy tech at all. Its about policy.

The common definition of technology is any practical application of scientific priciples.

So yes, a shower head, a shoe horn, and chopsticks are all technology.

However, in the context of News and Discussion, Technology typically means Computing, Internet, Electronics, Telecoms, AI, Energy Tech, etc and usually with a focus on new developments, product releases, new breakthroughs, etc.

It seems like the author is confusing open source with Open Source. The latter has a formal definition which includes a lot more than simple access to source code.

I also agree that no one is entittled to free support or enhancements, bugfizes, etc.

Lack of podcasts is a plus for me. Thanks for the suggestion.

I can barely read the site. Light gray text on a bright white background is fucked up for people with even slight vision degradation.

I've been a Spotify subscriber since 2012 and every year it has gotten worse and worse in term of UX.

I think this is the year I quit and go back to buying and ripping CDs.

Sorry but the pinephone is not great. I have one and its extremely underpowered to the point of uselessness.

Its like trying to use a 486 to as a current desktop.
