In the Middle East: drones deliver to Amazon.
Same-day delivery, motherfuckers
Thoughts and prayers
Lol. Lmao even.
If they can still repair it I guess more drones are needed
Fuck Amazon
Because that's what the news audience is interested in: the impact of the latest war on Amazon data centers. Which can be rebuilt and are owned by people with more than enough resources to do so endlessly.
- the news isn't limited to this one article
- publicizing news about the consequences of war, no matter the scale, incentivizes those involved to push for an end to conflict. Investors don't like it when companies have to spend money to rebuild things
Nah. The comments that say “duh, we already knew that.” And “borrrring” are always right.
(I agree with the otter)
And yet I'm sure they'll somehow find a way to make the little guy pay for the repairs
Fuck 'em.
Damn thats crazy
Cuh ray zee. I'm think hamburger helper tonight.
I mean.... Finally some good fucking news
Not a lot of anti-air defences at a data center. Maybe this type of protest should become more common...
No the last thing we need is big tech private armies
They'll just lay off a bunch of people to cover the cost and have it rebuilt pretty quickly.
And all this shit is insured
Insurance never covers damages from war, because that's a good way to bankrupt the insurance company. Even they don't have infinite money.
Not only are you wrong, there is also war risk insurance. Pricey, sure, but it's Amazon.
Hah
