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 also question it's accuracy - I have had several doctors tell me the wrist cuff ones regularly read 10 points high, and many cheap ones are just almost random of 20 points so rather unreliable. I have also seen that in personal use, and taken several to the Dr Office to be tested. I don't like it, and I wish it was different, but the only brand and type recommend by my current Doctor is an upper arm style from Omron.
