Prime is adding ads to their streaming service

Reply in thread

For me it’s the fast shipping I can’t live without.

I recently moved into a new apartment and needed to run a network cord from our router to the other side of the apartment to put an access point so we’d have good WiFi coverage. I went online to several other retailers for the few things I needed (cat6, crimp tool, and a few other things), but all of them wanted me to pay ~$25 or more for their slowest shipping option of 5-7 business days.

Meanwhile, Amazon had everything at my door the next day with free shipping. I tried to avoid Bezos, but I couldn’t. :(

Elon Musk on X antisemitism controversy: “Don’t advertise. Go f*** yourself”

This was so hard to watch. He comes off just fully crazy to me.

Is he really delulu enough to think “earth” will not immediately blame him and his terrible leadership for why the company is going under?

It almost sounds like he’s trying to build a case to sue these advertisers—like he’s somehow owed their business, but that’s just as crazy. I just can’t get a hold on wtf is going through his mind here.
