After many, many years, I've added a second wish to my list of things I'd like to happen when I die.I want my tombstone to read"Here lies Nate.He hated Samsung. Like, a lot."I'm not joking.

@warmbeverageenjoyer @picofarad "Worse"? Not really. "Easy to pick on"? Loads.I'm planning a loose blog post in the coming weeks, but the general gist:- Phones get hacked in the exact same way multiple years in a row- Shoddy cybersecurity- Phones are made to break (worse than most companies)

@warmbeverageenjoyer @nateb They don't stand behind their products, at all. They have poor QA on appliances. They have poor QA on screens, too. Phone support is "unplug the cables, plug in power, what do you see; oh, well then it works, pound sand".Their SD cards suck for dashcams, IME.I could go on, but i don't really need an excuse to not like a company. I also boycott nestle!
