Now they'll be plugging thier second and third channels too 😅

Yeah I'm not saying they didn't edit it, but rather the master footage they were editing was on vhs or similar. I guess it's probably quite likely they would've had some sort of better quality magnetic tape rather than vhs come to think of it though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Some was 16mm but probably mostly shot straight to vhs:

But you'd need a higher velocity to orbit closer...

Why would you need to entirely cancel the earths orbital velocity, surely you just need to cancel a ~~tiny~~ bit of orbital velocity?

Even products from reputable companies can malfunction

That's true, and always best to look up reviews and analysis of the design, most wouldn't fail in such a catastrophic way if one of the sensors were to malfunction. But yeah, scooping it manually is definitely the safest option.

There are much safer designed ones from reputable companies, these ones are drop shipped ones where they'll put anyone's logo on them, and have a very poorly thought out design.

Gotta force people to use the existing ones first, otherwise when planning more people will complain that no one will use it.

I mean pre-hat TF2...

They should install automated blinds like some high end luxury cars have except make them out of that silvery windscreen sunshade stuff.
