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.

And Australia. Frankly the whole anglosphere. Large parts of Asia, too. Vietnam's public transport is abysmal, and as the country imports more and more cars (over the motorbikes the country has historically been famous for) traffic is becoming absolutely insane.
Saigon has been building a metro since 2013 and still doesn't have even a single line in operation. (That's in no small part thanks to high levels of governmental corruption, rather than the same kind of car dependency in the west, but it comes down to a similar thing: money.)
