yes we should!
sorry, boss - aws is having... "issues". had to spin up the local load balancers. no need to thank me. we should be good for a week or so.
Fuck I hate using AWS at work. I have zero of my side business resources hosted on that hodgepodge (it’s actually funny because it’s the only website in its industry that stays up every time AWS goes down).
Also delete all data in S3 buckets to scale down on consumption
But how will Mr Bezzzos survive???
Why hasn't anyone created BezOS yet... And what would that be like?
It has to either make getting out of amazon really easy or it has to be a corpo dystopian os. Nothing else
I was thinking more like an OS where everything is "in the cloud" and everything costs money.... Like, volume up: $2, set alarm $0,50, etc....
Corpo Dystopian OS it is!
I’m doing my part! Cancelled Primevideo, and ordered a Kobo. I’m going to download all my books to my Kindle and then take it forever offline.
Sorry, but is a week that hard? I've been doing it for about 6 months no problem.
