#AmazonSucks I hear Amazon is getting into gourmet bottled water. Where you and I see catastrophic changes to the polar ice sheets, Jeffey sees a business opportunity.

I really do not want to buy books from amazon.
But bookshop.org does not have the author I want, and it is way to expensive to get from the author's own website, as the books would be delivered from US, costing more in shipping than in products.

Sent an abuse report (including logs) to AWS about a machine on one of their IP addresses smashing my web server with requests to download various potential backup filenames. Five days later they have verified that the IP address is in fact one of theirs, and that they

"reached out to our customer to determine the nature and cause of this activity or content in your report"

Thanks for throwing all of your resources at this one AWS... you're really helping to minimize the damage your customer is trying to do. :blobcatmiddlefinger: #awssucks #amazonsucks

Everyone's favourite Maths Youtuber has gone thru a helluva lot of work to independently publish her own book in exceptionally high quality for the lowest price possible.

See the struggle: https://youtube.com/watch?v=Y53AXT4IBew&si=_sd6-itoIdfWb93t

ENOUGH! I just cancelled #Amazon. One phone call from the orange one, Bezos rolls over and now won’t disclose #tariffs in pricing? #AmazonSucks

And my #AmazonSucks account is also finally gone... Means I'll miss the finish of the latest Reacher, but I am willing to make that sacrifice... 😜

der einzige Wermutstropfen: man konnte keinen anderen Grund anführen als in der Auswahlliste vorgegeben. Damit konnte ich nicht schreiben, dass ich mein #Amazon-Konto schließe weil #JeffBezos ein #Trump-Arschkriecher ist und ich solche #Marionetten nicht unterstützen will.

Nachdem es nach über 8 Tagen nun doch geklappt hat mit den über mein Konto gespeicherten Daten, heute das Finale.

Bye bye #Amazon, F*ck off #JeffBezos 🖕

@taketwo @heroiclauncher Yup. Kenne ich. Ich benutze den schon seit einem guten Jahr oder so. Lutris ist auch recht gut - wenn auch nicht so hübsch.

Gerade eben über den goldenen Tipp gestolpert für solche "Maker" Sachen:

Statt #AmazonSucks und für #unplugtrump

Das war's dann mit meinem Amazon Account!

@ehtron Sowas hier wäre ein konstruktiver Tipp... https://codeberg.org/phranck/Amazon-Alternativen

Oh yay it's ditch kindle day.

Actually I am pretty pissed off as a consumer about this because I bought a scribe instead of a Remarkable because it was cheaper AND I COULD COPY MY PDFs AND PAPERS EASILY.

Thanks to @jenni talking about the latest from the Kindle verse, warning us of further digital lockdowns from Amazon on our devices, I spent the morning downloading all my purchased books from Amazon and jailbreaking the old Paperwhite following the instructions from https://kindlemodding.org

Using WinterBreak, disabling updates, installing KUAL & MRPI, and generally being a patient script kiddy with the knowledge I could brick my device, I now have a completely independent ereader.

Now, how do I get my old books on there? 🤔😏

Anyone else been locked out of an Amazon US account (due to 2FA method loss or other) and been able to recover it from abroad..?

Amazon Prime. Jetzt erstmal 6 Werbungen schauen. Gott bin ich froh den Mist gekündigt zu haben.

Man muss seine Gewohnheiten echt umstellen. Hätte mir fast schon wieder einen Film dort gekauft. Gerade noch rechtzeitig gemerkt, was das für ein Drecks-Verein ist.

We were talking about this last night, and it increasingly seems that our kids will inherit a significantly more hostile tech world.

Not many people probably used this feature, but it was a nod to keeping your old Kindle as long as possible, or not being constantly online.

worldcat.org lets you find books at libraries; sometimes your local library will have it!

Some public library systems offer interlibrary loan, where they can borrow a book (or get a copy of an article) from another library for you. (Academic libraries do this as a rule.)

Worldcat also links to a few online booksellers, including Better World Books, VitalSource, AbeBooks, and Am*z*n.

Amazon algorithms are fucking braindead. I ordered a pair of boots. Now it's saying"it's a match for your recent purchase" and shows me a pair of boots. Fuck you! I just bought some.
