Sylvania now: "Just throw that piece of shit in the trash and buy a new one"

[โ€“] czardestructo 22 points 11 months ago

I worked for Sylvania about 15-20 years ago as they were swirling the drain and trying to adapt to LED lighting. Lots of cool old equipment and facilities but it felt like whoever was steering the ship (Osram) was asleep at the wheel. The way the company handled the next 15 years proved that was true.
