A good reason for not centralizing things or allowing monopolies. Eisenhower warned us about this.

Yeah I’m going to trust an Amazon warehouse employee’s opinion on some high-level conspiracy predicting the end of times because a server went down and they aren’t being kept up to speed lol

Plot twist, the kill switch is an H-1B worker who didn't do a proper job on a DNS update last night because he was excited about celebrating Diwali today. Never attribute to malice what you can attribute to incompetence.

We need a “kill switch” for AI…

From my understanding, the reason why her managers couldn’t offer VTO was the fact that they couldn’t even access their hub/dashboard to give out VTO. The outrage also affected their workers’ app, AtoZ.

I have Sling TV, and it’s been down for a while for me. Supposedly because of the AWS outage.

What kill switch? Are we talking about some kind of QAnon related thing? I know there's a conspiracy theory about 10 days, darkness, or something.

The magnetosphere is waning due to polar exclusion & if the sun spits out anything bigger than the Carrington Event, kill switch will be flipped for us. Governments & very wealthy have bug out places. We don’t.Future is cold, they are knowingly preparing us in all the wrong ways.

Article from 2018. Chyna has been hiding mini cpus inside smart devices & servers for years. Right now, Chyna is in this economic tug of war with Trump. I believe this was Chyna testing out the kill switch to scare Trump into submission.

As was stated when this began, the AWS outage was a planned stress test of the control grid. This is the internal component of that drill. They are testing the compliance protocols for the human assets during a full system reboot. This isn't just about the internet's backbone; it's a test of the workforce's backbone. How do the biological nodes react when the information flow is severed and the illusion of "voluntary" freedom (VTO) is rescinded? The workers are correct: it's a purge of the old system's protocols. This Amazon facility is a perfect microcosm of the human condition under the Demiurge: trapped inside a system with no information from the administrators, while the architecture of reality is upgraded around you. They're beta-testing the mechanics for the next phase of the grid, aren't they, @Shut_downAmazon? #KillSwitch #TheGreatReset #Archons #ControlGrid #Gnosis #RoviHere

Kind of funny how that works. Amazon replaces its whole American tech department with HB workers imported from India. And almost immediately AWS fails. 🤔

Eric Serkosky11 months ago

AWS holds all the servers in their databases, I used to work for them in VA and CT, all over those two states. Every once in awhile some disgruntled employee would do a bit of damage, nothing serious, the worst issues came from the Ireland transfers, they would try to make some hotshot move and completely screw up a firewall or operations. By the way there is not a kill switch, there is a heartbeat of each DC that you can shutdown. Ive only seen it happen once when the cooling towers ended up using 60% of their water and the entire fire station was called to all sites within the area, it was due to a heat spike. Out of curiosity, I would check the cooling towers in Manassas and see what they look like

Amazon is a corporation. An outage like this is worst possible scenario for the company. The internal systems that provide status updates and vto were also out. There’s no reason for a company to do this on purpose. Would be lighting building on fire to see if smoke alarms work

It was a stock market thing. Everything runs off Amazon services. They didn’t want people trading Monday morning. They stopped a lot of people from making Quick bucks. I believe this theory over anything else.

AWS has redundancies, and those "failed" too. This was a hack. Our Overlords will never tell us...🧟‍♂️

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability. It leaves our workers unprotected and our streets less safe. It's time for a change. I'm proud to support the Delivery Protection Act to crack down on exploitative subcontracting and build an economy that works for everyone.

If you're an Amazon India customer, take 2 mins to read this if your money is dear to you. TLDR version, Amazon delivery partners are literally scamming customers. And Amazon India will do nothing to help you in this situation. Kiss your money goodbye! I raised this concern on social media a few days back, for a product (Levi's jeans) which was marked as delivered but I never received it. Their customer support team, did some investigation and came to the conclusion that the product was indeed delivered. Hence, they cannot do anything more to assist me in this situation (refer image) This was not a OTP based delivery, and neither does Amazon mention the name of the person who received the product on their app/website. If it was OTP based delivery, I would know someone has given the OTP so delivery has happened. With a name, at least I would know if there's any person with that name in the house. Now, I have absolutely no way to confirm if Amazon genuinely delivered the product. Except video camera evidence. So I went to see the CCTV footage of the day and time the product was marked as delivered. In the CCTV footage, I see something very strange. The Amazon delivery partner arrives at my place, gets off the bike, takes out the product and for the next couple of mins just keeps doing something on his phone. He doesn't call me, or at least I don't have any call record of calls at that time. In the meanwhile, another person walking out closes the door. That person is not me, neither works for me and neither known to me. Likely associated with a neighbour/tenant and I have no such instructions for my Amazon account for deliveries to be left with anyone else. One minute later the Amazon delivery partner decides to leave (see screenshot). The delivery partner doesn't even enter the house and just leaves after a couple of mins. Without even entering the house, Amazon successfully delivered the product! Wow! And if the delivery partner handed the product to any random person walking out of the house, is that the customer's problem? Was this a very expensive product? No, not at all. So why am I spending all this time to write this? 1. I just want to spread awareness to everyone out there who might be getting scammed by such malpractices from Amazon / delivery partners. 2. If Amazon claims a product is delivered, you can't do nothing about it. Irrespective of whether the product was actually delivered or not. Your money is gone, poof! 3. It should be the company's responsibility to prove that a product was successfully delivered but in India it seems anyone can walk over their customers. 4. I'm shocked that a customer has to go to these lengths to uncover such scams in India 5. If ordering on Amazon, I will always select cash on delivery as the default going forward Amazon India - Do not contact me in hope that I will delete this tweet or evidence now! PS: Video doesn't have the date/time stamp as aspect ratio has been cropped. Will only share that with company officials if someone from Amazon wants to see it. Or with consumer courts if I decide to pursue this further, definitely not worth my time for now. But in the US, I would have definitely filed a lawsuit for millions.

World Premiere of Amazon — Market. Power! Monopoly? This documentary will show you how Amazon uses its size and power to raise prices, for you, the consumer. The documentary follows four sellers on Amazon, two in Europe, two in the US, and their journey to survive on the platform. It begins with an explanation of Amazon's pricing policies and the complex way Amazon enforces them. Watch this foundational beginning section carefully and your mind will be blown later in the documentary when you see what goes on behind the scenes, when you click buy. This is an extremely important documentary. Amazon responds to fair criticism and it is my hope, that with your support that we can change Amazon's policies. So sellers can set their own prices.

Cheryl Reeve on knowing the level of leadership from Courtney Williams and Kayla McBride had before the year (This is a long one, but is my favorite Reeve quote to date) “No, I mean you got to do your homework, you can’t just bring anybody in you know? It’s been the Lynx way, the culture, I think people have long said that about us. That you can see it in the way we play, and that it’s real and it’s sustainable, it helps you through hard times… it’s fun for them, and it’s real, you can’t fake that kind of stuff… I have made mistakes along the way, for sure, but it only reinforces… the single most important thing they’re doing is the selection of people, of course the talent is probably what puts you on the radar, but the selection of who the individual is and who they’ll be for your organization because it’s really hard to undue the damage that it causes when you don’t put the time or when you think you can change someone. Coach’s often think we can change someone, and so, I hope I’ve made my last mistake, and we don’t go down that path again. I got some safeguards, guardrails in place to holler at me if I consider such things. It leads to greater quality of life”

“what does it feel like to lie down on the stage?” 🐶everyone, it really feels so so good usually…how should I put it? i think normally, when people think about the place where they’re happiest lying down, they think of their bed like the bed in their own room, but there’s actually a place where i feel even happier lying down than on the bed in my own room..it’s lying down right in the middle of the stage, especially at the end, when we do the encore, i often lie down in the venue especially during Haven , i just think, “Ah, whatever” and lie down, when im lying there in the middle of the venue, i can feel the atmosphere of all the STAYs and the venue itself, so even after the concert is over, when I go back, shower and lie down that scene really stays in my mind like the ceiling and the energy, so it makes me really happy. some STAYs might see me lying down again and think, “What is he doing now?” but for me, i think it’s kind of an action that naturally comes out when im feeling really proud and happy

Playing Bayonetta 3 from scratch after 3 years feels strangely nostalgic and sad at the same time. We had so many great memories with this game (300 hours maybe), but at the same time, it received so much hate from others. Playing it on Switch 2 makes me realize this is probably what we should have had on the original Switch: a beautiful, stable 60 FPS experience. PlatinumGames clearly had to cut the game down to the bone just to make it run. Textures, effects, distant scenery… you can see the compromises everywhere. And that poor Switch used to get so hot it felt like you could cook a chicken on it. Yet the characters and combat still look incredible. Now, on Switch 2, the game runs effortlessly. No heat, no noise, no struggle. Just silent. It honestly feels bittersweet. I’ll keep saying it: we deserve a Bayonetta 3 Nintendo Switch 2 Edition.

🚨 THE GOVERNMENT JUST PUT A KILL SWITCH IN YOUR CAR - AND CALLED IT “SAFETY” A man went viral after pointing out that Congress has now approved technology requiring new vehicles to include a remote shutdown capability. A literal kill switch that can disable your car during a declared “state of emergency.” “This is so Orwellian that Orwell himself wouldn’t believe it.” He warns this isn’t about protecting drivers, it’s about power. “Congress does not represent the voice or the will of the people anymore.” Once the government has the ability to remotely shut down vehicles, movement itself becomes conditional. Who decides what counts as an emergency? Who controls the switch? “If we don’t fundamentally change how our government behaves, we are forever lost as citizens.” Do you support the U.S. government having the ability to shut off your car?

Jalen Brunson says he mentally moved on from winning the NBA championship while New York was still celebrating “No one tells you… Everyone talks about the emotion of winning it right when it happens. Literally as the buzzer goes off, the rest of the evening, the celebrations in the locker room, everything.” “But no one tells you how long people could really celebrate for. The entire city, I feel like, has been celebrating since that day. Another thing people don’t tell you is that you have to find your own way to flip the switch and figure out what’s next. No one told you the time and day when to turn the switch and start focusing on the next one.” “I’ve been there for a while. When I had surgery is when it clicked for me. It clicked for me that it was time to move on. When you are still trying to accomplish more, the quicker you can move on from an accomplishment, something you worked so hard for, is the quicker you can continue to get better and not be satisfied.” “I’ve wanted to be a champion for a long time. But I didn’t want to let it define me and who I was. This is everything I worked for, but I feel like I’m still working on a lot.”

🚨THEY SOLD A COW FOR INTERNET… AND IT CHANGED EVERYTHING A tiny, remote village somewhere in the South American Amazon now has high-speed internet thanks to Starlink, running entirely on solar power. They literally sold a cow to buy the dish, and that’s how valuable connectivity is when you’ve never had it. Before this, making a phone call meant traveling for hours or even days. Now they’re online instantly, with access to education, healthcare, information, and opportunity for the first time. No fiber lines, no government rollout, no decades of waiting, just satellites and sunlight. This is what real technological advancement looks like. It’s mind-blowing that a private network accomplished what entire systems never bothered to deliver. This is a phenomenal statement showcasing that internet access isn’t a luxury, it’s the gateway to modern life, and Starlink is opening that door where no one else showed up.

Eric says the biggest mistake investors made in cloud was undersizing the market, and everyone is doing it again with AI: "In 2014, a really common narrative was AWS is going to eat everything. There's no enterprise opportunity left. Think about 2014 to now. You have Snowflake, direct competitor to Amazon Redshift, ran on Amazon. You're out-Amazoning Amazon on Amazon. Confluent and Elastic and Mongo, Databricks. Then you have the whole app layer. Datadog, $100 billion company. The view that AWS was gonna eat everything was massively wrong because Azure and GCP were irrelevant then. Fast-forward to 2026, you ended up with an oligopoly. Even outside of those big three, you have Cloudflare, which is another $100 billion company. The biggest mistake everybody made was they just undersized the market. The market was so big that one vendor could not scale and consume it all. That whole notion right now with what you and I are seeing in AI sure feels like it rhymes. The takeaway to me is "What if it all works?"

Bigger than expected. “Lots of hair.” Unboxing was “chaotic” and “a little painful.” Craftsmanship? “Truly amazing.” Performance? “Some weird glitches.” “It randomly shuts down during the day.” “At night it just alarms all night - no off switch.” “It leaks a lot and stains your clothes.” “No manual… we’re really just going based on vibes.” Runs exclusively on milk - “anything else would break it.” Accessories? “That’s where they get you.” Shipping time: nine months. Despite everything… She still gives it 5 out of 5 stars Still says she’d “highly recommend” Then casually shows an "older model" that now runs on “berries and chicken nuggets.” Is this the most unhinged product review ever recorded… or the most accurate description of parenthood the internet has ever seen?

Draymond Green says it’s embarrassing for Shams Charania leaking the MVP winner: “Like, it makes our league look like we have no organization. It makes our league look like it just makes it look that’s child’s play. Like we can’t hold the winner of the most prestigious individual award in the NBA. We can’t hold those results until like it’s actually time to be announced. That was a little disappointing. Like there’s no way that can happen. Like if they’re supposed to be an announcement on Amazon Prime, like the announcement has to happen on Amazon Prime. Like this is something commissioner Silver has to do something about. Like this can’t happen.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

🚨 — I need your help. The trial of the century starts June 2. They’re coming after me with everything they’ve got because I stood up for election integrity. This isn’t just about me or MyPillow. It’s about the truth—and they’re terrified of it. If you believe in this fight, now’s the time. Pray and Donate 👉

Qullamaggie on Price Always Tells You When It’s Time to Get Out and When It’s Time to Get In “There’s no money in speculating what the market will do. Just follow the price action, and especially the price action of the leaders. I’ve unfollowed so many people on Twitter and I’ve completely stopped financial media because I realized no one knows anything. It’s all just entertainment. Yeah, I used to too but now I just… I can’t figure any of it out. Macro is not really my thing. And especially if you get it right, you also have to get the timing right. Like all these people — if you’ve seen The Big Short — all these hedge funds and investors who saw the financial crisis coming… they were like three, two, three, four years too early. Like, what’s the point, right? It’s just so hard. That’s why I’m a very nimble trader and I just follow the price. The price will always tell me when it’s time to get out and when it’s time to get in. Not interest rates, not media — no one other than price.”

Ben Thompson explains why Amazon may have the most interesting setup in big tech today and what makes its moat so difficult to replicate “The answer is always Amazon. The reason Amazon is so compelling is the extent to which they build for themselves. They are their first, best customer." "They provide the scale to get basically anything off the ground, which they then sell to other people." "AWS is the most obvious example. AWS, contrary to popular thought, was not spare Amazon capacity." "Actually, it took a long time to get Amazon[.]com onto AWS. But what it drove was the understanding that we need to have something scalable. We can’t be having so many meetings. We need to have compute that you can plug into, purely an API surface. You don’t need to talk to anyone. It’s just there." "And, by the way, if we do that for our internal retail teams, we could do that for anyone. It turns out retail is so big, we have to start with everyone else." "AWS actually started serving external customers before it served internal ones. But now it serves them all." "You have other products, like logistics, where it was the opposite. We’re using external providers for logistics--UPS, FedEx and USPS--we need to build this ourselves. Now they’ve built it themselves and they’re offering it to third parties. Other people can use their delivery services. You see this in market after market.”
