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.

I just wanted to hear what everyone's thoughts are on Apple's new product line coming out in 2024. Will this be the new iPad/iPhone? While the price is certainly prohibitive, from what I can tell from the keynote and promo, it really does seem like the real deal; a different way of interacting 'in space.' I think this is the step in the right direction for AR/VR to be more mainstream.

The AR stuff is what I've wanted since the first Oculus dropped -- being able to remove all the obvious parts of technology from my physical spaces (the multiple monitors, the computer tower, all the cables and whatnot) in favor of a thing I put on my head and do real work? Yes please. Fuck gaming -- I want my life back, and to have work shoved off into a weird phantom realm where I don't have to think about or look at it when I'm off the clock.
