Why isn’t Microsoft under electronics to avoid?

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 months ago

Most people avoid their hardware naturally.

There are a lot of Swedish supermarket brands in that list. I’m guessing the author is based in Sweden?

As an american I will be using this lmao

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Thanks I'm gonna use this and I am in the US, some of those brands are sold here so I can switch. I already primarily shop at Aldi for food.

Same, there are a couple on here that I didn't even know weren't an American company that in definitely going to be buying more of. Like Logitech, Redbull and Philips lmao

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

TIL: Red bull is not American-owned

I know that Ford is big but it's still funny that there's only two American car brands in Europe.

And I feel like there's a ton of brands missing from appliances but I could only think of Miele (honestly everything I've ever had from Electrolux was junk). AEG? Siemens? I'm sorry I can't see the image while I'm writing this. Bosch? De'Longhi? Gotta have espresso and gelato. Bialetti?

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

In drinks, Innocent juices and smoothies is owned by Coca Cola.

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago

Beko would be one to add to the list of appliances.
