  • looks like we got ourselves a deal :3

  • There's also Trigema who produce in Germany

  • Like you want a lot of malware? O.o

  • transition goals right here :3

  • Because :3

  • I scream at my work computer at least once every day when it inevitably gets hung up some proprietary MS365, 2FA, triple mail opt-in cookie banner notice pop-up, kiss Bill's ass and while showering him in champagne type bs .

  • There seem to be about 5000 people living there now... I wouldn't want that for them. But I'm sure there's a nice, sparse, unpopulated island without utilities and internet access in the Hawaiian archipelago for Mr. Musk to spend the rest of his life on. Lisianski Island for example looks great!

    Edit: Or Sentinel Island, the indigenous would be really happy to see him :)

  • Audio Technica is also good for audio / production gear

  • Ah yes: Makita of course!

  • I actually like to buy specifically Japanese, especially audio gear :)

    • Technics for Turntables
    • Pioneer for DJ Players & Mixers
    • Yamaha for other Audio Gear and Instruments
    • Rakuten for streaming and buying movies / shows
    • Don't own a car but if I had one it would be Japanese
    • Sony for TVs, Gaming Consoles
    • Nintendo: also gaming
    • Muji for home stuff
    • Uniqlo for clothing
    • also: kitchen knifes!

    Etc.

  • I read a while back that this is due to capitalism having ameliorated most production / operatioal inefficiencies. Now younger companies have to rely on people's 'self-improvement' and 'dedication' (ie. unpaid overtime, useless motivational speeches,...) to beat their competition.

    When Ford implemented mass production, they gained a competitive advantage that didn't rely on any individual worker being extremely good at what they do. Same with McDonalds: The burger flipper doesn't matter to be successful, the system of delivery is what matters.

    But when you're developing the 900th dating app, there isn't really much to innovate if you want to play it safe, so you just tell people that they have to be(-come) extremely good, quick, etc. at what they do and make personal growth one of your company principles.

  • Warwick and Sandberg have a few made in Germany bass guitar lines that are pretty sick. Also Duesenberg - sooo beautiful
