A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

TLDR, not an Onion headline, just a test to see what Amazon will allow. A person came up with a "Release" brand drink, filled bottles with urine, successfully listed them on Amazon, but only shipped them to friends that ordered them. Other people ordered them too though, but were not sent the product.
Another example of a multi-billion dollar company that doesn't curate their products/services. Costs too much money they would only profit 234 billion instead of 244 billion.
This is totally an Onion headline, just not an Onion article.
Touche

In the long term it's a terrible strategy. People will lose confidence and stop shopping there. I've almost stopped and I know I'm not the only one.
Not that most executives care about long term...
People will lose confidence and stop shopping there.
Not if they replace your lost piss for free.
Naw they didn’t even need me to send it back! I got the keep the piss and they sent me more free piss!
Pissful win
Well, the thing with that is Amazon has already integrated into so many other markets that it doesn’t matter what you the consumer do
wait. so lovers of piss play where not sent the product they ordered??? Not cool man. leading them on like that.
And they're going to spend 1 billion dollars on themselves to make sure they don't end up spending millions on others.
Well, someone's gotta take the piss out of Amazon.
🫳🏼🎤💥 That's a wrap, everyone. Close the thread 🤌🏼
Babedi boobedi 🤌
"Reality" is going to make the onion go out of business.
Hasn't happened yet, never will
Satire stronk

Maybe because they see it can generate profit...

Rumor has it that the polish pis party made a large order
