Samsung

I've also had to deal with their lack of Canadian RMA for 2 SSDs. Had to go back and forth with them and trying to convince Amazon and the Amazon seller to replace the defective drives.

Not buying any more Samsung memory products due to their essential non existent warranty in Canada


Buy through Memory Express if you've got a store nearby, just need to keep the receipt for the warranty period. They have a price matching policy for items that have the same SKU as well.

MemEx is an authorized dealer so they'll take it back and send it back to Samsung for warranty work if you buy from them.


Took about 5 months of endless back and forth to get them to replace a defective SSD in Australia too, despite very clear consumer law guarantees here obligating them to help. Absolutely hopeless company to deal with.

I didn't reimplement because of promises. Neither amqp.node nor node-amqp provided the direct access that I wanted.

The promise vs callback is a minor point as they are both equivalent with promises having a slightly higher overhead. But yes, I do hate promises.


This would be cool if I could actually scroll down to move sideways. My mouse's side scrolling is terrible and dragging the scroll bar skips a lot. :(


all he had to implement http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/horz-scroll-with-mouse...

also, if you hold down shift and scroll it should scroll horizontal


It would be a bit more fun if I could read the comments without having to scroll. After ten minutes of scrolling to reach Jupiter, and being about 1/4 of the way through the solar system, I could not keep scrolling. I got the concept and was not ready to invest another half hour.

Grab the scroll bar?


The right arrow key worked best for me.


Google Chrome on Windows allows horizontal scroll with shift key+scroll wheel.
