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
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.
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.
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.
