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.

Yes, the marketing targets professionals. The products do not.

you're playing childish word games again. the products are clearly targeted at professionals, regardless fo whether they fail to please them.

if all you have to add is petty contrarianism, stop wasting everyone's time.

I'm not playing "word games". This is much more than a semantics argument. Marketing is literally just bullshit brainwashing. The product blows, the company blows, and the consumers are sheep that regularly and repeatedly ensure the continued erosion of consumer rights.
