it’s funny
Influencers having public fights with corporations is a pretty funny genre
Does Rossman qualify as an influencer? He seems too… competent for that term. I see him more as a consumer advocate
He influenced me to hate apple and support right to repair.
I know what you mean but he’s the definition of influencer just instead of selling vapid sponsored products he’s selling 44 minute long autistic rants where his hyper fixation is consumer rights.
I personally define influencer as “someone who makes social media content for a large percentage of their income”
I know it has a derogatory connotation for many people though
Yeah that’s how most influencers work. But there are others as well.
I love it. Does more than just a lawsuit on its own since it simultaneously does public awareness and advocacy work, plus it’s kinda just entertaining to see people have beef with corpos
Yes exactly it creates an unsolvable public relations crisis for the corporation and they can’t use any of their favorite dirty tricks to get out of it
Samsung did the same damn thing to me before the AI craze. Apparently the S/N of one of the 2 970’s I bought from Amazon indicated a non-USA region. Entirely indistinguishable to consumers. Warranty denied.
Never bought another Samsung NVMe since 2019.
Yeah, you can’t trust Amazon to not mix stock from various sources. Though with any product with verifiable serial numbers, I always verify them as soon as I receive them. Too much counterfeiting which is why they’re verifiable in the first place.
that would be the fault of amazon’s genius idea of mixing inventory from multiple sellers and suppliers together.
He makes an honest point. Besides, my first 980 pro lasted only 24 months. The second lasted 26. It’s nice performance but without much reliability.
My Intel 520 series 60GB 2.5" SATA SSD from 2011ish is still going strong. It’s the OS drive in my FreeBSD server
Pretty crazy how this modern shit fails so quickly
They don’t it’s luck of the draw, I’ve got many new Samsung evo drives that run perfectly
we’ve been through similar bullshit here. we just cut out those companies and never again do we buy from them, for ourselves or our clients.
