I refuse to pay for any product where I'm the product. Run it locally, maybe I'll pay for it but never online. My guess would also be that at the 100$ price point only one company can be profitable but that is just a very wild gue

The problem is not it may, but it will make mistakes. But people do not realize this and treat it as an almighty oracle. It's a statistical model after all, there is a non zero chance of the monkey creating the works Shakespeare.

Amazon drops shipment, says you accepted it and calls it a day. Tale as old as time. You can replace Amazon by any shipping company. Good luck fighting it if you lose it or never wanted to accept it in the first place.

In a vacuum, sure. But in a workplace this workflow is best practice at best and even gets ignored. I've been able to accidently add a secret despite scans and I noticed it myself so it was quickly fixed. Still resulted in a discussion

If the quote is higher, doesn't that mean the demand is higher and less empty containers are available? The EU does not have an extreme tariff on most products from china, only some. I guess I'm missing something here.

Pedantic, but most beers should be drank (according to the manufacturers and experts) at 7-13c depending on type of beer. Exceptions always exist to confirm the rule. Which is above fridge and around "cellar" temperatures. Unless
