ну у меня есть и HGST, и WD, могу сравнить - это совершенно разные вещи
HGST я не покупаю, они все вытащены из дешёвых ноутов, они тормозные и даже звучат хуже
Так что про Hitachi ничего не скажу, но продавать HGST под видом WD - это криминал

My path to veganism has more to do with refusing to be poisoned by the corporate clowns that don't care they're killing us all with listeria and microplastics in EVERYTHING and a supply chain that I refuse to depend on.

It shouldn't be unreasonable to buy and consume healthy vegetables from a normal store but it gets harder every day. My means of survival will not be affected by recalls and cross contamination, corporate greed, or animal slavery.

IMO- Our survival will depend on our ability to take back control from companies that would sell us our doom with a shiny ribbon wrapped around it. Self-sustainable veganism is my bet for our future and I'm doing everything I can to bring it to reality as quickly as I can.

If everyone made an effort we’d live in a completely different world almost over night.

This statement (about everyone single personal effort) only becomes meaningful when you take into consideration why people don't. If you do, you will encounter the dialectics of structure and "personal choice" and how complicated history is and how it is not at all about "everybody make a small change in their life".

The liberal feverdream of individual solutions for structural problems is bound to end up in "I buy good groceries".

And, eventhough veganism is a good thing to do, this is why I'm personally so annoyed by vegan communities.

I dont know if reducing your personal sin count or whatever is a substitute for radical critique and political action, or an add-on, so I didn't downvote. But maybe it explains some of it.

How are the corporations and governments going to change if one person doesn’t commit the first action of doing better and inspiring others to do the same. As people buy animal products in grocery stores and people vote in carnist political parties.

That’s a strawman because if you were paying attention you would notice that vegans are doing street outreach, disruptive protests and factory farm liberation to save the animal victims from immense suffering. They’re not simply buying “good groceries”

Universal suffrage, abolition and gay marriage didn’t just suddenly came out of thin air because corporations and governments decided to become nicer no it was it was the unsurmountable pressure by the people protesting for better treatment for all.

Of course I don't, although in my case it is. The deeper point is that if people were to reflect more closely on the origin of their food, this would certainly be a win for veganism. After all, plants are seen as many things but "gross" is not usually one of them.

Disappointed you had to jump straight into censorious mode and tell others literally to shut up.

That's crazy, I don't know how you do it. When my SO and I got back together after I had gone vegan she tried it for me and has stuck with it ever since. I can't imagine having to fight against my SO or watch them eat meat every day.

Sorry, I know you're not commenting for relationship advice. I'm sure there is a world where two people could have different beliefs on this and still coexist, but yours sounds... hostile. I'd really ask yourself if they're worth it.

The same meat eaters who say “respect my choices and stop judging me” while they childishly go out of their way to say “your vegan food looks sad”

Them taking my money and buying animal products would be my last straw, I would not let them buy groceries with my hard earned money ever again and would be seriously reconsidering my relationship.

Pretty poor response using that biased definition.

You’re too weak to be vegan.
