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.

This is not sad. Progress is progress.
Good on EU to force their hand, we should be cheering for regulatory agencies making life better for consumers.
It's sad that it took so long
It's depressing that they were forced into it rather than realising for themselves that it's bad for their own consumers to continue to have to use their crappy proprietary port. Of course they don't care they make money out of lightning and that's all that matters.
The EU rocks, but it is sad apple had to be forced to do this instead of choosing to not be dicks
