Apple & Meta. I try to boycott Amazon in lieu of other online sellers but I don't always succeed. All non-union Starbucks. The latter is the one that has impacted my life the most because I used to spend my days studying at Starbucks. I Struggle to focus and concentrate on formal work of any kind while at home. We do have two unionized locations in town. They usually don't have any sitting room left, though because they are so close to the university campus.
Microsoft and Lenovo
I'm not that familiar with them; why Lenovo?
There's a bunch I know when I see them, but not many I can think of right on the spot. Apple, Liquid Death, and Celestial Seasonings are a few I can think of though. Apple for a million reasons; LD because I just find their whole campaign insanely obnoxious and everywhere I look and I hate that people are paying ridiculous prices for plane ass water in a can; Celestial Seasonings because it's straight up an actual cult.
Coca-Cola, Nestlé, Starbucks.
Epic Games until they continue developing UT4. Motherfuckers.
I avoid Nemix RAM, because the first time I bought a bunch of sticks from them, they had an 18% failure rate. I paid to ship the bad sticks back, and they sent me more bad sticks. Nemix said they worked fine, so I sent them the Memtest screenshot with all the errors. They didn’t want to pay shipping to replace them again, so I just returned them and got some Micron RAM, and it’s been working perfectly.
Sony
Hyundai . i will never buy another one again. ever.
seats are hard as rocks. they break down way to fast. the rear view mirror is set way to low in the window creating a safety hazard for looking forward. it needs to be set much higher on the window. (so i have to look up a little to see the mirror... so f'ing what?!) get the damned thing higher so it doesn't block my view when i try to look front and right of the car.
that's just a few of my annoyances with that car. i'm done with that company.
Adidas. McDonald's. Starbucks.
Samsung. & Vodafone. For NZrs: Fisher & Pykel.
F&P quality is shit and the first two have awful customer service. Samsung also, while they do innovate, lack quality and don't stick by their products.
Also: HP and Apple. Shitty lock-in tactics
Tesla
Tesla, Red Bull, Believe Music, Microsoft, Samsung, so many more I can’t think of right now
