Greg Brian (@Gregoriancant) reportedOne might say it was health neglect, but others would say “broken heart syndrome” after one’s spouse passes following multiple decades of marriage. It’s a lesson, though, to always care for one’s self, even if adamant on caring for others first. We say that at Amazon all the time. #DollyParton #Cancer

Uncle Sam 786 (@CbhSam30259) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN Three days. Multiple interactions with customer service. Still no refund for a broken tempered glass screen protector that Amazon delivered. This is ridiculous. I paid for a product in good faith and received a damaged item

Cameron Alexander (@CamAlexander310) reported@shaunmmaguire Ten seconds of research is all anybody would need to do, to know this is 100% accurate. Data centers bring down utility costs across the board. Same exact thing happened when amazon was building out their fulfillment centers, the left tried the same thing. #AI

Kevin (@Kevincreates77) reportedThe $35 wireless earbuds you bought on Amazon cost the seller $3.80 And the factory that made them will sell you the same pair for the same price. Not a similar pair. Not a knockoff. Not a "version" of the same product. The same earbuds. From the same factory. Made on the same production line. Using the same molds, the same chipset, the same driver, the same Bluetooth module, the same silicone ear tips, the same charging case, the same USB-C cable in the same little plastic bag. Identical in every measurable way down to the weight, the impedance rating, and the frequency response curve printed on the spec sheet. The only difference: a logo you've never heard of printed on the case, an Amazon listing with professional photos, a brand story about "premium audio crafted for everyday life," and a price tag that's 821% above what the factory charges to make and ship the thing. A guy who's sourced over 200 products from Alibaba factories for his Amazon business over the past 5 years, including those exact earbuds, told his coworker something most consumers have never once considered. "You're not paying for the product. You're paying for the listing, the photos, the reviews, and the two-day shipping. The actual product, the physical thing sitting in your ear right now, is available to anyone on earth from the same factory at the same wholesale price I pay. The factory doesn't care who buys. They care about the purchase order. Send them one and they'll fill it." Here's the 9-step playbook for buying factory-direct and the 9 things most people get wrong 🧵

Vince (@VincedubU) reported@AmazonHelp It wants me to make a report. Which I have done many times. My issue is well known. I just want a resolution for a serious issue, that’s been reported.

Marti Lawrence (@Marti_L) reported@therealjmers @amazon But up until last month, they DID list the name of the product! I used to be able to open my inbox, glance down the list, and see a title that was clear and simple, without having to go elsewhere.

Aj (@Ajkxtm) reported$MU - Micron has a very broad customer base, and it does not publicly disclose every customer. But several major companies have publicly confirmed relationships with Micron. Major publicly identified Micron customers/partners $AAPL Memory for iPhones and other Apple products; Micron calls Apple a long-term partner. $NVDA Major HBM customer for AI GPUs; NVIDIA has specifically said it collaborates with Micron on advanced HBM. $MSFT AI/data-center memory and broader semiconductor relationship. $META AI/data-center memory; Meta’s CEO has publicly highlighted Micron’s role in its AI supply chain. $DELL Long-time strategic partner, including infrastructure/AI systems. $GOOGL Major hyperscaler/AI-memory demand; Google is among the large AI infrastructure buyers benefiting Micron. $AMZN Major hyperscaler and AI infrastructure customer/demand source. HP, Lenovo, HPE, Supermicro, etc. Micron supplies memory/storage into PC, server and data-center ecosystems. The important part for MU investors The Magnificent Seven are: NVIDIA, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet/Google, Meta and Tesla. Of those, the strongest publicly confirmed Micron relationships are Apple, NVIDIA, Microsoft and Meta. Micron also participates heavily in the hyperscaler ecosystem, including Amazon and Google. But there’s an important distinction: Micron doesn’t publish a list saying “these are our customers” for every company. Its 2025 10-K says it sells through direct sales, distributors, retailers and representatives and serves a worldwide customer base. And this matters because Micron recently announced large strategic customer agreements without identifying all the counterparties. So some of the biggest AI customers may be under NDA. NFA

Shushant (@whoshushant) reported@amazonIN this is third time my order went missing your ****** delivery team just marked it as delivered but they didn’t even call out or never showed up at door . Amazon delivered me a defective electronic item. I raised a return request, and somehow—thanks to the AI and “latest technology of 2026”—the defective product was apparently teleported away from my place and a replacement was delivered. Except… none of that happened. The product was never picked up, no replacement was delivered, and yet I keep receiving notifications saying the issue is being “resolved” automatically—without anyone actually speaking to me. I genuinely love your ****** customer support so much that I’ve had to come to X for help. So, should I tag Jeff Bezos, or can someone at Amazon actually fix this?

Athiswamy (@athitheboss) reported@AmazonHelp It is of no use to speak to automated bots. Please arrange a call back from human customer care team member. PS: I tried to report my issue there which is of no use!

Furry Joker and 99 others (@FurryJokerTFF) reported@Beansthemoocow Yeah. Ps4 for sure got it. Found it on Amazon. They overhauled the nano abilities to correlate with modern controls which is nice but the aiming still feels like it was made with pc in mind before being ported. I also noticed weird culling issues with certain objects.

Uncle Sam 786 (@CbhSam30259) reported4/4 This isn’t about ₹154 anymore. It’s about 3 days wasted, misinformation from Amazon, and a refund method processed without my confirmation. I have screenshots of the entire conversation. @amazonIN @AmazonHelp Escalate this and fix your mistake.

TaeStoic (@TaeStoic) reportedSeptember 1st marks the lock-up expiration date for X-Energy ($XE). There’s so much to study here, but the lock-up schedule definitely caught my attention the most. Since the IPO on April 24, 2026, the lock-up was originally set for 180 days later (October 20). However, because that date overlapped with the company's insider trading blackout period, an 8-K filed on June 4 confirmed that the lock-up release date was moved up to September 1, per contract provisions. To be honest, I used to have so many fundamental questions: "Why do IPOs usually have a 180-day lock-up?" "What is the point of a lock-up period in the first place?" "What are quarterly blackout periods, and why do insider trading restrictions exist?" (I started investing last year, but back then I was just buying and selling blindly. Now, I’m trying to actually study the market properly... haha) Even though you can easily look these things up via AI or Google, I tend to forget them just as fast. So I constantly ask myself "Why?", research the concepts repeatedly, and write them down. In my view, the key takeaway right now is to closely monitor SEC filings for insider buying or selling right after the lock-up lifts on September 1. (Insider purchases can happen anytime, after all.) While founder Kam Ghaffarian holds a major stake (25%), institutional heavyweights like Amazon (23%) and Ares (12%) hold almost as much influence. There will undoubtedly be various catalysts and key milestones to track before Dow submits its construction permit application in Q1 2027, but for now, my main focus is on this upcoming lock-up release!

Ed Rosenberg (@ed_rosenberg) reported@NDGAnews Amazon has a terrible reputation of submitting exaggerated and false referrals. I hope you guys got it right and did things in the interest of justice. You guys need to fact check because I don't really expect both sides. Both @WDWAnews and @EDVAnews has screwed up royally in the past.

Steven (@StevBuilds) reportedAmazon just shut down Mechanical Turk after 21 years. The human-task marketplace that quietly trained the entire machine-learning era. The thing that helped build AI just got made obsolete by it. Feels symbolic.

jbsxswacl (@txhillcntrysmrt) reported@emzanotti Hyprocite. He promotes Amazon, which I have no problem with - but I mean look at all the categories items that platform sells. Meanwhile there's a church in the middle of Dollyworld where the gospels are sung and preached - not mentioned at all by the hyprocrit.

Allen (@Allen58028224) reported@thrashima Seeing if this works. For some kind of reason, my Amazon credit card and my cell phone have both been shut down. Feels like retaliation for something; doesn't seem like a coincidence. Weird because I'm hardly the most radical person out there.

David Carbutt (@DavidCarbutt_) reportedBefore YouTube I tried everything to make some extra money. Dropshipping. DJing nightclubs. Running events. Selling stickers. Amazon-to-eBay arbitrage. And every one of them had the same problems. You need big money up front, or there's not much room to grow, or the margins are so thin it's barely worth the effort. Usually all three at once. But YouTube is different. It costs almost nothing to start. You can put as many hours into it as you want, whenever it suits you. And you can build it around a full-time job. Which is exactly what I did. The other things I tried all hit a ceiling eventually. But this one still hasn't. I've scaled channels to 100 million plus views, and taken clients to $100,000 months. And my own channel has had months of over $10,000, while being a side gig. So if you want to give it a go, I've put what I know into an 8-week course on how to grow and monetise a YouTube channel. Follow and comment "YouTube" below for more info.

Defiant Ghost (@TheDefiantGhost) reportedEd Zitron just said something Wall Street never wanted public: OpenAI misses the IPO — Your 401(k) pays the bill OpenAI doesn’t go public. It runs out of cash. They need $100 billion a year just to survive. They’ve delayed the IPO. They have $1.1 trillion in cloud commitments. SoftBank is sitting on ~$100 billion of paper OpenAI stock it can’t sell. Oracle is building $400B+ of data centers for one customer. Amazon, Google, and Microsoft all booked future growth off the same two unprofitable labs. When OpenAI can’t raise again, they don’t “slow down.” They force every Magnificent 7 company to restate the story. Nvidia revenue could drop 50–70%. Half of last year’s VC went into AI. Most of those startups go to zero. This isn’t a dip. It’s a tech depression. And the people who get wrecked first aren’t Sam Altman. It’s Jenny and Dave’s retirement.

Mohd Safdar (@imsafdarr) reported@amazonIN @amazonIN My sugar strips are not working, and my return request was rejected. I’ve also emailed Amazon Support twice but received no proper resolution. Please arrange a refund urgently. Order ID: 402-9015178-4881128

𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘦 (@OopsGuess) reported@ChrisRMcGuire You know what Microsoft, Amazon and Google care about? Revenue. Can your anti-China tantrum generate cloud usage? Can it sell inference? Can it attract developers? Can it grow enterprise demand? No? Then sit down. Kimi can make them money. You can only make noise.

Uncle Sam 786 (@CbhSam30259) reported1/4 @amazonIN Is this how you treat customers now? 3 DAYS. Multiple Customer Service chats. All for a ₹154 refund for a broken tempered-glass screen protector Amazon delivered. Today, things got even worse. 🧵
