CVS is a high street pharmacy chain.
So the “CVS guy” is the cashier on checkout at the store.

A lot of the reviews that are for the “wrong item” are there because of the seller repurposing the listing.
The seller will list some item that is easy to get good reviews on, like a hammer or something. Then after they rack up several hundred 5* reviews saying “Works great, seems high quality!” they edit the listing to change the item title, description, everything to a new product but keep the reviews.
Then the new product gets a big boost from the high review count and star rating of the previous product.
Very scummy.
It’s a disaster out there right now when it comes to decent review sites.
Google is absolutely complicit in this, if not entirely to blame. Their search ranking has over the years pushed to the top all the low effort listicles that are full of sponsored Amazon links and no actual reviews, and a lot of the real reviews have disappeared due to traffic starvation.
And now those top sites are often just AI nonsense that steal content from whatever few other sites actually exist. Nonsense “reviews” just spouting the product specs, from people who have never even put their hands on the product for real.
My personal go to these days (although I wish it wasn’t) is youtube.
There’s still a load of nonsense listicles on youtube, but with a bit of searching you can usually find some actual person who is genuinely knowledgeable about the product category, and has a bunch of different ones actually in their possession for real, that they can compare and give honest opinions on.
To play the role of the annoying five year old, “And why is that bad?”
Read/write/execute file permissions.
Having them set incorrectly can cause problems, such as creating a file as root then leaving you unable to modify it as user, being unable to execute a script because execute is not set, or being unable to use your SSH keyfile because you left the permissions too open.
It’s more actually like “Why is it, when something doesn’t happen, is it always you three”
I’m not into any sports at all, of any kind. I dont think I could even name 10 athletes in total - either male or female.
I’m also pretty sure that wouldn’t be a blocker on me having a meaningful discussion about trans inclusivity in sports
The answer is very much “Don’t run Photoshop”

I may not have realised I was using a British English specific term :)
“High Street” does etymologically derive from the main shopping street(s) in a town where most shops would have premises, as you suggest.
In a contemporary usage it means physical retail (versus online) and also connotes city centre, versus places that have enormous out of town “big box” stores.
So economists might say “The high street saw the best Christmas profits in five years” and they mean all retail in that sector of business.
So when I said CVS were a “high-street pharmacy” what I really meant to imply by that was “they are a brick-and-mortar chain with physical stores on streets in towns and cities all over the place”
