And AWS profits are dropping each quarter recently...

More likely that it doesn't work out for Jassy. Certain Amazon units are underperforming under his leadership, and I wouldn't be shocked if his time at Amazon didn't last that much longer.

Yes, that's why my post specifically said "If it was successful"

They do realize that if there is a Biden impeachment it will fire up the Dem base, and if it somehow succeeded it would mean Kamala becomes president, right?

Oh, I'm well aware. Calling out cultists for enabling their own bad treatment always ends with downvotes from those cultists.

Because their cultists still buy their shit. They will keep doing this until people stop buying, and that won't happen due to the cultural brainwashing that they do.

I'm not sure how it's possible that it's only 227k acres when seemingly half of the southern US is blanketed by Kudzu...

It's possible, but by the time you get to the supervisor, it's time to cut the shit.

Sam's Club. We cancelled our membership and they still charged us. I called the main customer service number and told them to reverse the charge, or I would reverse it for them. They got all pissy and claimed they could only speak to my wife, who wasn't available, despite the fact that my card was the one charged. Then they started getting insulting, and claimed my bank wouldn't reverse the charge. I ask to speak to someone higher up, and politely explain the situation again, complete with my cancellation email, and the supervisor is even ruder than the first person. I then called the local store, and thankfully the person there wasn't an asshole. They pulled up the account, saw it was cancelled on the date I said, and quickly refunded the charge. I have no idea why Sam's Club customer service is the way they are, but they can eat a bag of dicks.

Saying that self hosting has those costs but cloud doesn't is a bit of a misnomer. In a decently run IT environment you still need someone to manage your cloud instances and watch for bad practices. In fact, the guy who does that in the cloud is probably more expensive than the guy who does it in a self hosted situation.

Cloud was never really cheap. People just didn't understand the total cost involved, and companies are finally beginning to realize that on prem wasn't actually a problem.

I get 3-4 out of feather, and about 5-6 out of my Shark Chrome.

I didn't care for Andor, didn't get past episode 1.

Almost everything since Disney took over, except bits of Mandolorian.

It's definitely a cult.

Kids are dumb

If you've traveled that far then you SHOULD be aware that the solutions you mentioned won't work in rural areas. It boggles my mind that you claim to know rural areas, but persist in proposing non-sensical solutions to mass transit there while simultaneously proposing abolishing cars.

I do agree about time being wasted here, but it's mine that was wasted by engaging with you.

I'd like to again suggest you leave your metro area. It sounds like you have no idea of the scale of rural America.

I didn't stop at the first line. None of your suggestions encompasses truly rural areas, which is a large amount of the land area of the US. Take a trip out of your metro area some time.

You are the one complaining and not offering solutions. Your proposed solutions above don't solve the rural issue (unless your solution is forced relocation of everyone to cities, which is never going to happen) which has to be solved before you can make cars so expensive that only the rich can afford them. I also don't know why you would want to reserve cars for the ultra wealthy, hardly feels like being ultra wealthy needs more perks.
