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.

For their customers, or for anyone who walks off the street?

Practically for their customers.

Ideologically and wistfully for everyone.

My local authority in East London pays local cafes a small amount if they make their toilets available to the general public and display a sign on the door. This feels like a good pragmatic solution to me.

Yeah, that is definitely a nice, pragmatic solution. I imagine it's cheaper for the local council than running public toilets themselves, too.

Ooh yeah that's not bad at all!
