A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Their revenue is growing. Their revenue only from Amazon sales to consumers is also growing (excluding things like AWS, streaming, and advertising). The proportion of sales to Prime members is growing (they stopped reporting Prime membership, but we can presume that it also growing, from this).

The few people boycotting Amazon, maybe for short periods of time, isn’t enough. Every small step is helpful but we need much, much more.

For my part I last used Amazon services in 2024. (personally, not counting AWS at work)

Nvidia hasn't really fallen yet. Across six months it's pretty flat. Nothing like Microsoft or Amazon which have significant dips.

I wonder if boycotting of big tech will be swept under the rug of AI fear…
