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.

To be fair there's all the shit with dollar denominated oil, SWIFT, terrorist regime change on countries that don't want to play along, etc. It might not be based on any kind of fair exchange of value, but that's not quite the same as the USD's global reserve currency status being vibes-only.
