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 mean the quality of the test data is slipping but
"He’s Targeting a younger audience as they are more likely to spend money on stuff."
What younger audience has the income for an $80 screwdriver and a $200+ backpack? I think you may need to think out your point a bit more since nah I don't think they are targeting a "younger" audience those in the sub 20 category. I think they are primarily focusing on just being a "entertainment" product rather than a informative review one. They do fine with technical stupid jank shit but probably shouldn't be trusted for specs for the moment but at the end of the day I think labs will still probably be better than userbenchmark (even though that is a pretty low bar).
Rich kids
Not excusing the backpack, but the screwdriver was actually pretty good, almost worth the price.
