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.

Now I can pretend I’m in a NYC taxicab that smells like cigarettes and vomit! Nice work, BMW!

They did, and probably still do. It’s not a screen on the dashboard, though. They’re on the backs of the front seats, so anyone sitting in the back gets pestered.
