  That's kinda the point. People expect technology to suck so they don't bother complaining about it because they're just used to it sucking.

    I thought it was kind of a mental thing where you're so used to technology sucking you don't even know that it could be better. There was another comment about a developer getting RSI and having to use an Android as their main device and not being familiar with the UI and feeling restrictive. Iff that's your default computing mental state and you don't expect computing devices to give you a lot more power you just expect and know them to be restrictive devices that you typically consume media from then you don't even have experiences to compare the suck to. The suck is what it is and you expect it to suck why would you say that. At least when you complain about the weather we both can acknowledge that the weather changes, unless you're a technological power user the weather doesn't change.
