or you end up becoming the guy who argues that drawing swastikas doesn’t make you a nazi because it’s a symbol of luck.
That’s a very poor and far-fetched analogy.
good luck defining what a computer is
A computer that runs an OS designed to be used with kb+mouse. See? It wasn’t that hard. Refusing to call a Windows computer a “PC” as if that were the only thing it could be doesn’t mean that I’m obtuse. It just means that I refuse to abide by the rules set by a set of crappy, inaccurate ads a massive corporation ran like 13 years ago.
Save yourself the headache and use PC as you understand it while accepting that others have a different meaning for PC.
Thanks, but no. If you want to misuse the term, go ahead. I’m just as free to point out the incorrect use of the term if I want to.
You’re right. I should’ve said “the guy who argues swastika isn’t just a nazi symbol”, because that’s essentially what you’re saying: PCs aren’t just windows machines.

You do know that Android and most modern gaming consoles support kb+m? And I case you want to hang onto to the word “designed”, as in they’re designed to work without a physical kb+m, then I guess the moment I install SteamOS my PC it stops being a PC?
You’re doing the same thing you’re complaining about, using a generally accepted definition of a word instead of the actual definition.

So it’s okay to misuse words when you also misuse them, but not okay when you don’t misuse them? What are you, a self-important hypocrite?
You’re right. I should’ve said “the guy who argues swastika isn’t just a nazi symbol”, because that’s essentially what you’re saying
Ok yeah, sure. A couple of ads a random tech company ran are the same thing as the Nazi regime. Give me a break. It’s an erroneous analogy and you know it.

They support it but that’s not what they were designed for. Don’t be obtuse.

A) I’m not misuing anything B) You’re starting to sound quite like a douche.
Clearly you can’t be bothered to address what I wrote so I feel like it’s fair for me to not bother with you. The way I see it there’s a very simple solution here. You can continue your little crusade of proper terminology and I’ll tag you as “self-important hypocrite”. After-all what’s the point of continuing this discussion when you deliberately ignore what I wrote so you could bark back an argument I explicitly covered because I fucking knew you’d say it. You’re not here to discuss, you’re here because you can’t be wrong and I’d rather stare at the ceiling than put up with that mindless shit.
