  • There has been tons of products with fake reviews for over a decade as well by now.

    I remember back when Amazon was a source for trustworthy products in the earlier days. Then they let the shady sellers in. Then they hid the country the product ships from. Then tolerated blatantly fake reviews. And now they’re hiding the reviews they don’t like? Why would anyone want to purchase anything from that service at that point?

    If I want something I have to order online nowadays I’ll go out of my way to find an online store that isn’t Amazon. And if it’s something I can’t find anywhere else, I’d go on AliExpress. It’s likely going to be a junk product but at least it’s priced accordingly. Amazon products nowadays are just AliExpress products with a 5000% markup.

    There are so many things that you can land on land that will absolutely ruin your day. A large boulder, a large tree, a cliffside, a building, something flammable, near an angry hungry bear… Astronauts coming back to Earth after spending a significant amount of time in microgravity are also mostly helpless until they adapt to Earth’s gravity again. The open sea is seen as safer in the American school of thought.
