And also twin screw polymer extruders
I gotchu fam
Now I know why my girl friend and I both love Hitachi…
Damn, your girlfriend likes excavators? Lucky
Also VCRs and TVs in the 90s.
Ok, now can you replace the motor in the personal massager with…
I’ve just got really deep knots.
Cthulhu has awoken and demands release.
NSFW!
How? It’s a picture of a massager and a dump truck.
One of which can also be a massager of someone’s dump truck.
Sorry to tell you that’s not a dump truck…
“Excavator” just doesn’t seem as funny to me.
You don’t massage your neck at work?
No one has ever massaged anything above the waistline with a Hitachi 270.

Right? It’s great for massaging leg muscles after an intensive training
“leg”
Calm down
Me: Hmm, about time I bought a phone
Siemens: I gotchu
Me: a laptop would be nice to apply for jobs
Siemens: Gotchu there too
Me: Just got a City Planner job, wonder who I can buy some trains from
Siemens: Gotchu again bro
Me: Nuclear power plant to power the trains?
Siemens: We don’t sell those anymore, we’ve gotchu with steam and solar power plants though
Me: Just bought a house, need some kitchen appliances…
Siemens: Gotchu bro
Me: I need a TV and a Smartphone
Samsung: No worries man
Me: I could also use an artillery barrage and a few tanks
Samsung: Well now that you mention it…

I’m automating this manual process and need a PLC and a couple variable frequency drives?

We’ve got just the thing.

That’s not a Hitachi on the left.

Hitachi don’t make those anymore.
Hitachi rebranded their magic wands because they didn’t want their brand to be permanently associated with sex toys
Seems like it’s a little late for that.
They did not rebrand them. They stopped manufacturing them completely. They didn’t license it to other manufacturers, they sold the rights outright. They have entirely divested themselves.
This isn’t a Hitachi or a modern third party version; this one operates on DC and has button controls and a power button instead of one chunky switch.
this one operates on DC
Hitachi really missed the man in the canoe when they stopped at 110v. Could have made a high-end 240v dryer plug model to really drive it home.
Three. Phase. Sex. Toys.
When does it stop being a vibrator and start being a reciporcating saw?
Ah my bad. You are correct internet guy. Kindly accept my apologies.

Brother (the printer company), makes world-class sewing machines. Home use and heavy commercial.
So does Toyota (before cars in fact)
Sewing machines and printers aren’t all that different. They both take a media and apply it to a medium using a motor and replaceable supplies. Especially when you consider the sewing machines that you connect to a computer and sew images and patterns to.
They both take a media and apply it to a medium
“Media” is the plural of “medium”. 1 medium, 2 media.
Samsung, the shitty TV maker that used to be good, makes war tanks.
And apartment buildings.
And is a hospital
TATA has entered the chat.
They also make Scanning Electron Microscopes.
Don’t forget the Hitachi UltraStar hard drives

We have learn’t nothing from ‘too big to fail’.
Now it’s “too big to fit”
This reminds me of around 2000, when I had a Daewoo television, and then my mind was blown one day when I saw a Daewoo car. Who makes televisions and cars? Daewoo apparently.
Asianometry has an interesting video on the rise and fall of Daewoo that is definitely an interesting example on how not to run a business.

so apparently samsung also makes cargo ships
I used to have a Hyundai laptop … it was really good :-)
Ever hear of Daewoo Heavy Industries? They make excavators, railcars and ships
And Hyundai has their hands in much bigger pots than we realize.
I’ve had a good chuckle many times about people buying Japanese cars and dismissing Korean manufacturers as rubbish.
Guess who made the Mitsubishi Lancer engines for over 20 years? Hyundai. Which always seemed odd because Mitsubishi is no slouch when it comes to heavy manufacturing.
Suzuki SV650 motorcycle engines, which has a cult following? Also Korean manufacturing.
Yep, a pot full of Immobilisers that they didn’t fit to cars being sold in the US 🙃
Fujitsu too
Mitsubishi
They also make microwaves
Samsung too. Rebadge Renault’s in South Korea.
The record player I grew up with is a freaking Mitsubishi
Mitsubishi was founded by a samauri.
So I was curious, and I looked it up. You’re close: the founder was a descendent of a line of samurai, but his great grandfather sold the status/title in order to resolve debt obligations
So was my first CD burner.
I should ask my sisters if they remember the manufacturer of the one we had… If I had to take a guess, it was probably Sony
