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.

Thanks. Totally forgot about them.

Very good point. And with this ads/google revenue model, it's SEO skills that makes money instead of good skill to write a meaningful review.

Yeah. Meaningful reviews actually really interfere with your ability to make money, because your advertisers won't be super happy if the ad they paid money for saying "It tastes great!" is right next to the article explaining that actually it tastes like whale semen.

Are you suggesting whale semen does not taste great?!

Why did they add coconut? I miss original.

Ambergris, or spermaceti, once believed to be whale semen, whence it got its name... other than for candles, perfumes, or as industrial lubricant... was also used as food glazing.

Food for thought. 🐳💦🍰
