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.

Yeah it's a weird thing about parasocial relationships. You like someone based on things you've seen about them on TV and then you start feeling like you know them. But really, nope you don't.
I think it's fine to like famous people, but just understand that you don't really know them. If you later find out they're a horrible person well then don't like them anymore and it's no big deal. You only like the things you know about the person, but if you avoid going down the road of feeling like you really know them, it's fine.
