Samsung is pretty cool like that. Need a TV? Samsung does it. Need a washer dryer set? Samsung. Need artillery? Believe it or not straight to Samsung.
pharmaceutical products? samsung again (though as CMOs not as name brands as far as I know)
is this a phone screenshot of a tik-tok screenshot of a tweet ?
lemme post this on instagram, send it via whatsapp, upload it to imgur and have it recompressed by youtube real quick!
To convert that to open services: Let me just post this on Pixelfed, send it via Telegram/Signal, upload it to (hmm, can someone help me here) and have it recompressed by Odysee/Peertube!
That’s a weird way to spell matrix
Which one?
Matrix is a federated messaging app, while telegram and signal make it difficult to host your own servers. You can read their docs at matrix.org or try the service at element.io
Thanks for letting me know about that!
Glad I could help :) You should also see a space in your lemmy account settings to put a matrix ID on your profile, if you want people to have a more secure contact option than lemmy DMs which can be read by the instance admins.
Help is here: upload it to Picsur
MORE JPEG!
Yamaha makes audio products: Pianos, Speaker systems, motorcycles…
Ich: I want some freshly ground coffee. Hey, Tchibo, do you offer this?
Tchibo: Of course! That’s my primary business.
Ich: By the way, Tchibo, do you know someone who sells raincoats and underwear, but basically no other clothes?
Tchibo: Funny that you ask…
bro took the screenshot the long way
Me: I’d like to buy a smartphone
Samsung: ok
Me: I also need an apartment in Korea
Samsung: ok
Me : I’ll also need a tank and a giant crane for… unspecified reasons.
Samsung: ok
Me: also diapers, unrelated
Samsung: here you go
Or medical treatment in a hospital. Or signing up for military service and using one of their vehicles.
Or wet wipes for dogs, probably
Me: can I also get some appliances for that apartment?
Samsung: ok
Me: and you know I’ll probably also need a testing kit for these chemicals that I purchased
Samsung: done
Me: I need assisted living facilities after a small chemical accident in the home
Samsung: no problem
Me: oh, and some sugar
Samsung: fine, there you go
I’d also like an industrial drone for dispersing pesticides and liquid based fertilizers.
Yamaha: Would you like it to match your motorcycle?
And my piano, too
I learned this fact from Vocaloid (yep the one with Hatsune Miku), which is also developed by Yamaha. They had a mechanical parts department during WW2, and it survived by switching to making motorcycles after the war.
They make boat motors too, for some reason…
I would like to buy some air conditioning
Hitachi: OK
And some science equipment, a crane and some train tracks
Hitachi: Done
Also I want to pleasure myself
Hitachi: I gotcha fam
I would like to buy a business copier/printer/scanner.
Brother: Got you covered.
Any idea where I can get a good sewing machine?
Brother: Funny you should ask!
Magic wand moment 😂.
Ich: I want to get into cooking. What is some very basic recipe book for beginners?
Dr. Oetker: What about mine: Dr. Oetkers Schulkochbuch?
Ich: But I’m actually too lazy to cook. I just gonna buy some frozen pizza.
Dr. Oetker: Here you go.
ᗜwᗜ - I would like to buy a smartphone
Xiaomi - ok>
ᗜwᗜ - I’d also like to buy a pressure cooker, flipflops, bicycle, suitcases, wine bottle o-
Xiaomi - 你不会相信我会说的话Me: I’d love any of these things without ads
Xiaomi: lmao no wtf
Yeah I’m fine with Xiaomi having ads on their phones. When I owned one I honestly rarely ever saw them.
For real though, anyone know how that came to be?
Branching- Pepsi made phones, Nintendo had love hotels probs not and taxi services, Chinese companies make many stuff etc
Nintendo? Love Hotels? I think I missed a few chapters here.
Huge companies used to make a lot of stuff back in the golden age of capitalism. General electric was a big chemicals and plastics company for instance. It was just normal.
Nowadays, those mega-corporations make more money acting as a bank than they do selling stuff. They’ve just kept some product lines rolling because they’re profitable and safe.
You couldn’t just start a motorcycle company and be competitive against Yamaha. The specific expertise they have took decades to build, so why waste it by closing down those weird branches when they’re still making money.
Mitsubishi: Cars, Air Conditioners, Chemicals, …Food Industry(?), …Pens & Pencils(!?!?!?)
I need a good clothes washer.
Maytag: we can do that!
Nice. Where can I get some blue cheese?
Maytag: Maytag Farms
Now I know what my wayward socks do…
