MODERATORS
“over 70 percent of TV-related inquiries from senior customers received at its service centers [being] simply about difficulties in operating the TV,”
What?
Edit, oh man:
I’m not gonna lie… it was really early when I read the article… and I might have read it as “injuries” 3 or 4 times. Inquiries makes so much more sense.
Let me rephrase: "our UI sucks ass and is confusing as fuck, so we gathered data and did some dumbass analysis on this phenomenon instead of making an interface that isn't utter dogshit"
