are treated by their pushers. I thought that consumer gave them some
respect over being a slab of meat who I pushed whatever I wanted onto

product to work but aren't currently interested in or able to
contributing to the product and community.
I try to use "audience" or something like that, but user is generally
understood to be a neutral term for software/hardware.
