It’s about being more than ….
A consumption device is nothing more than something designed to extract money out of a person.
And no, being productive is not a SV idea. In fact, it’s only recently (in the past 50 or so years) that buying something that doesn’t have a productive purpose is even considered.
But I’m not surprised that SV douches have convinced themselves that they’ve created the concept of being productive.
- gurkendoktor 5y ago> It’s about being more than …. I would understand that objection if people could only own a single computing device. But us who want the iPad to be a dumb consumption device probably own a proper computer for creation. In fact, having an iPad that is supported by all the big companies (native apps, DRM, ...) makes it easier to use a main operating system that runs none of the SV junk. From my POV, it is really the opposite. People who want the iPad to be a universal computing device are the problem, because they'd be willing to move to a locked-down platform if only it had Xcode or whatever.
