  • Do not use Amazon unless you know exactly what you want. The reviews are almost all fake. What’s annoying is that if you search for review sites on a type of product you do not know much about, they funnel you back to Amazon’s “highly rated” ones and get a kickback of you but the no name garbage. Also annoying is that those words salad companies are all the same manufacturer for the most part. They set up a ton of different names to flood the search results and then throw up a bunch of fake reviews. Some of that shit can be dangerous. Louis Rossman just did a video testung out some highly rated fuses and one of them by Nilight did not blow until 5x its amperage rating. That can easily lead to a fire. He also did one on crimping cables a bit ago that absolutely failed to crimp. Amazon removed his negative review.










  • I agree with your first paragraph.

    Your second one does not make sense in this context though. Oil companies are the ones pushing carbon capture and sequestration. The US did buy into that bullshit and gave the oil companies billions to work on it. Out of the dozen projects, not one of them was workable. I think only one of them even got past the planning stage because the cost and the amount of carbon sequestered was so bad most of them gave up.
