Dattatraya Deshpande (@dattatraya_d) reported@AmazonHelp I wasted enough time with your system and your agent + associates on the chat. Now it's your turn to own up the issue, fix it before expiry of the return date and get back to me once it's fixed - or refund the money. Be one who owns the issues, not wasting customer's time

Unruly Americans (@UnrulyAmericans) reported@Mericamemed Thats the impression I got from your other posts. I dont see any anti data & surveillance peoplen switching to pro government control position without $. It was suspicious. Glad you didn't sell out. Amazon, IBM and all the major companies have been selling server forever

Raj (@raj_fba) reportedIf people knew how many huge price drops happened on Amazon and other retailers on a daily basis they would be dumbfounded.. $72 market price on a retired lego set dropped down to $24 and pinged in our channels within a minute. Pretty hard to not make money on something like this. This happens hundreds of times a day and we're filtering out the trash so you can keep notifications on for the important things.

ChiefPatriot (@ThomasRoof13) reported@Sassafrass_84 They’re no worse than an Amazon distribution center…there are mechanical systems that negate the water issue and they can be designed to provide their own electricity - don’t be a hater, be smart.

Jack (@Hammers091) reported@Demolition_Nuke @pokemondealsuk Basically 3 months. My point is that accounts claiming it’s fixed need to realise the system isn’t fixed and they need to stop congratulating themselves on “helping to fix” Amazon invites.

Chris (@TiberiusChris) reported@ctfw529 @Dexerto I actually think the opposite Google has had issues too. Amazon will probably have issues as well at some point….I don’t think it needs to be switched to ownership, but I do think the misleading “buy” buttons need to change since there’s no ownership. They just need to reframe how they present it to consumers. Or at the very least have a pop up with 1 sentence that explains the “license can be revoked at anytime” so people don’t have to search the website. That’s it … done.

VT2MI❄️🧟♂️ (@VT2MI802) reportedJust saw a moped driver run right into the side of an Amazon truck. He got lucky enough he slowed down in time to not get hurt. Could’ve been bad.

Casey k (@CaseykinNorCal) reported@spotted_model I think that was about the same time my rewards account for my credit card got hacked and someone converted all my points into Amazon E-gift cards. Thankfully I caught that one right away and got all my points back. The supervisor I ended up talking to said that was the first time he had heard of such a thing. My rewards program stopped offering e-gift cards after that so that people had time to catch a problem like this while the physical cards were in the mail vs the immediate delivery of the E-cards.

It’s me, Joe (@AllAboutJoeX) reportedAmazon Quick supporting MCP integrations is the kind of agent update I care about: less spectacle, more plumbing. The concrete change is that an MCP server hosted on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Runtime can connect to Quick, giving its agents standardized access to external tools and

Jack (@Hammers091) reported@OaklabsAlerts Sod all again. Nothing since early June and getting fed up of people congratulating themselves with how they helped Amazon “fix” the system simply because they personally got invites.

Amazon Help (@AmazonHelp) reported@BilyanaPeeo8ze @BilyanaPeeo8ze Hi, we're sorry to hear that there's been an issue with your account, and that you haven't had a positive experience when you've contacted us for assistance with this. Just to clarify, which Amazon marketplace (.com, .uk, .de, .in, etc.) is your account associated with? -Laura

Angry Husky (@Angry_Husky) reported@TrungTPhan I hope Apple doesn't go down hill now like Microsoft, Google, and Amazon are doing. Apple makes money because they have premium products that people are willing to pay premium prices for. The other companies lower quality to junk level to increase profits.

Jesse (@jessew22) reported@SaveUSAKitty The bad part is that in very few years the space needed will be much less, energy too. As the tech advances it will use less materials and use less electricity. We need to win the A.I. race, but there are other factors we must cover. Electricity is not the issue. It's the water systems used to cool the equipment. If money is invested into the system, it's usually fine. If not, then the surrounding area will be affected. Not to mention the "grey" noise. It can cause health issues for some, especially older folks. I'm not saying don't do it, but why not place them away from people like Amazon already does, even Facebook does. Most of theirs are in the middle of nowhere along the Columbia river between OR & WA. Umatilla, OR is the center of the "hidden" data centers for the big 4

13F Pro (@13F_Pro) reportedTesla rose more than 5% today. Same session the Fed chair pushed markets toward rate hikes. Higher rates are supposed to hurt long-duration stories most. Gold fell. Long bonds fell. Utilities fell. Apple, Amazon and Google fell. A rising discount rate crushes a promise. It barely scratches a promise with a launch date. $TSLA is down about 18% this year for being a promise. Today money moved ahead of its Cybercab launch. Watch the rollout, and the Fed in September.

Enkhmanal 🟠 (@Enkhmanal) reported$AMZN - AMAZON SOLD ITS AD AUCTION AS SECOND-PRICE. THE FTC SAYS ADVERTISERS PAID THEIR OWN BID 80% OF THE TIME The FTC and the attorneys general of 22 states sued Amazon on Monday over the auctions that decide whose ad appears beside a search on its store. Amazon has described those auctions for years as second-price: win the keyword and you pay a cent more than the next-highest bidder, not the number you wrote down. The complaint alleges that in 2019 Amazon quietly added an undisclosed charge, called internally a "soft reserve price" and set by what one of its own documents calls an "invented auction participant." The share of Sponsored Products advertisers who ended up paying their own full bid went from 30–40% in 2021 to roughly 80% by 2024, according to the complaint. None of it is proven. For scale, advertising billed $19.8 billion in the June quarter. The concealment is the mechanism rather than a detail of it. Bid into a first-price auction and you shade your number down, because you pay exactly what you write; bid into a second-price one and you go close to what the keyword is really worth, because someone else's number sets what you pay. A surcharge like the one alleged only keeps earning while the people bidding still believe the old rule holds.

🇺🇸 Ed 🙏 (@edber29) reported@StephenJ_Caruso @ThePatHenderson Patrick is right. The old concept of having servers on-site is on the way out. If those server farms you speak of still exist I would say the physical size and number of servers have decreased by a huge amount maybe 90%. Virtualization and SAAS have replaced many of those old servers and are being hosted in data centers. I have lived in server rooms since before Y2K. Servers became much more powerful and one of those servers could host hundreds of the older servers virtually. Instead of sitting in a server room in front on "my server" I would sit at a desk outside and see the same exact thing. Around 2010 I started to see those servers disappear as Amazon started hosting the virtual machines. At my desk or mostly at home I would see the same thing on my screen but it was now hosted in a data center and this explains the huge growth we are seeing.

Vishal 🇮🇳 (@TheVishalKay) reportedGoogle may gobble up Anthropic at way cheaper valuations that current one ( that is why they are not aggressively pushing Gemini is code creation and many other features). Open AI may die its own death or at best Amazon may buy it as pricing of under 100 billion. Or both (OpenAI &Amazon) may Go down together. Biggest qs is what happens to NVIDIA . If GPU demand goes down what will they do with all their fabrication and R&D balloon?

The Market Owl (@specialist316) reported@AmazonHelp @amazonIN @JeffBezos It’s already sent. The message was issue to be resolved in 6-12 hours , not you guys giving a stupid, inane , moronic, non committal , useless and generic response which has ZERO VALUE … I am getting increasingly tempted to take you guys to consumer court for sheer harassment

Anand 🌱 Siva (@anandsiva) reported@amazon @amazonIN 3 calls over 4 days on the same issue & I’ve had to repeat the entire story every time. And every time it’s been a new twist to the end, a new deadline. Are you testing out a new SOP or just trying customer patience?

Javy (@JavyDiaz) reportedStep 2 down — landed on the Samsung 990 Pro 2TB for the M4 mini's Thunderbolt setup. Enclosure + drive both locked in now, just have to put it together.... Amazon has a nice 6% back... these were much cheaper two months ago. And I don't think we'll see these get cheaper for now.

Dunewolf (@DJ_Dunewolf) reported@GuntherEagleman We had to put our dog down not long ago.. we used chewy but never notified them - cause we still use it for the cats food / treats/etc.. they are a pretty decent company which gets orders out and to door almost as fast as Amazon does..

Echo Charlie 2.0 (@The_Clive_Smart) reported@dave24144975 Romany gipsies cruising the streets, nicking everything they pass. I had Amazon deliver a big box to my house; inside was a brand-new coffee machine. I told the delivery driver to leave it there as I was on my way down. Anyway, I was no more than 30 seconds away when I opened the front door and walking back down the garden path was this woman in a full-length Roma gypsy dress, with a yellow high is vest on. Nothing could have looked less in tune with what a delivery driver would wear, with her carrying the box away. I shouted and started to run after her; she had the brass ***** to ignore me and keep walking. I got in front of her before she got outside the gate. She tried telling me in broken English that she was the Amazon driver (the real Amazon driver who delivers to me is a 6 ft 8 in Black chap) and that she had misdelivered it to my address, “it for neighbour, sorry.” I took the box off her, but she carried on trying to get it back off me. She even threatened to call the police, as if that would have stopped me. She started swearing and shouting, “It's for the neighbour. I showed her my warrant card; she just walked away, ignoring my shouts, before getting into a hire car driven by another Romany. Bloody nightmare. Why are they in the bloody country? There's no war in Romania. There's no tyranny there, and as an EU country, there can't be any state abuse. Yet, there are thousands in England. I have not come across one who isn't up to their necks in crime.
