I am considering this encouragement to follow my dreams even if it kills me ;)
I would, without a doubt in my mind, attempt to be friends with a wild cheetah if I saw one. zero self preservation.
Firstly, that guy looks like a fuckin idiot eating pizza like that. Second, the ninth circle is frozen over in Dante's bible fanfic, so idk maybe by that logic this is the right pepper order?
Hi! I found it on my lunch. it's definitely not a perfect comparison but I personally think there's enough data to make some useful generalizations.

I've seen this claim twice now in this thread that WD bought Seagate; and I'm not saying you're wrong, bit I legitimately don't see this info anywhere online and I'm pretty sure neither owns the other.
Mind, I'm on mobile so it's hard to verify things but, I suspect there's some confusion here.
My understanding is that it's a relatively recent issue, maybe last 5 or so years? WD is currently leading the pack if I remember correctly.
This is the website im referring to btw. You happened to catch me on my lunch so I could go find it. They have lots of stats, and it's not like it covers 100% of drives but personally I still think it's useful and you can draw some general conclusions from it.

I'm at work so I'm sorry for not being able to provide a source, but there's a website that tracks hard drive failure rates and Seagate is consistently one of the worst brands. So there's some extra facts for you.

I don't want to give them too much credit, because frankly i think its legitimately just stupidity at play.
But, if I were a billionaire who owed an assload of money to various oil countries like Russia and Saudis, while my own businesses were failing due to everyone realizing how stupid I was... I too might be inclined to sabatoge alternative energy sources by indirectly causing an enviornmental disaster or two effectively erroding whatever is left of the public's trust in it.
