  @MABroadcasters When does cellular internet go down? In FL during a force 4 Hurricane our cell service was up when the radio and TV stations studios and xmitters were getting flooded taking them off the air. Between SXM and Amazon music I never use the AM/FM tuners in my cars.

  A lot of new people here, this one’s for you. 🚨How to stop losing money to eBay return scammers. They buy your clean, working item… then ship back a broken piece of junk & demand a full refund. I recently learned this $7.49 trick & it’s an absolute game changer: Grab a cheap UV security pen (the exact one I use from amazon is in the photo). Before you ship, write a unique personal code or mark in a hidden spot on the item. It’s completely invisible to the naked eye, but lights up under any blacklight. When the return comes back, just shine the light. No matching mark? That’s not your original item. Upload the before/after UV photos in your eBay case and watch your win rate skyrocket. 🚀 Pro tip: Make the code truly unique, your own handwriting style, a random symbol only you make. Something scammers can’t duplicate even if they know the method. Resellers: add this to your process TODAY. It will save you hundreds (or thousands) in the long run. Who’s trying this? Let me know in the comments if you’re adding UV marking to your process. Also, would love to hear your best return scam stories below! Happy selling! Let's grow!

  @Amazon @AmazonHelp Ordered 2 qty but received only 1. Item is missing from the package. Support says “no return or refund policy”. This is completely unacceptable. You shortchanged me and now refuse to fix it? Worst customer service experience. #AmazonFail #PoorService

  AUTONOMOUS - July 16th (@autonomousevent) reported 19 minutes ago

  Humanoids: 2015 vs 2026 Humanoids have been "five years away" for fifteen years now. In 2015 DARPA's best robots fell over trying to open doors and lay there until humans ran in with cables. a fall ended the day. 2026: → ~16,000 humanoids installed globally last year, up from basically zero two years ago → Unitree delivered 5,500+ to paying customers → Figure's factory now builds one roughly every hour → Agility's Digit working real Amazon and GXO warehouses, Unitree's G1 handling baggage at Tokyo Haneda Falling used to mean damage, now they drop, absorb it, stand back up. Earlier robots like ASIMO reportedly cost ~$2.5M and waerenever for sale, yet a Unitree G1 lists from ~$16k. The durability problem, the cost curve and the paying customers are finally moving the same way at once.

  Write it down. A clear one-pager beats a confident voice. Amazon built its whole meeting culture on this. Over-share the why. Context is the one authority you can give away for free. Netflix calls it "context, not control."

  What do I mean by trend. Allow me to explain. Amazon has seasons with trends, which mean in a certain season, what’s gonna be trending might be book blocking, and this will be happening rampantly across random accounts, or sometimes might target new accounts only, and there might be a but; which might be that, you’ll have to always respond to the messages for them to unblock the book, and you can do this for as much books that was blocked. Another one can be random terminations across several accounts, this can come in as abnormal reading activities, and you might be surprised when it happens to an account that doesn’t even have any book yet in it. It’s not you, it’s the incompetency of Amazon for leaving their bot to handle such a huge task as taking down account it suspect might have violated their policy. And another example of trend I’ve experienced was multiple accounts, this also has happened before where your account gets terminated for having multiple accounts, in most cases you don’t have multiple accounts, it’s just the stupid not getting triggered by randoms. The worse part that shouldn’t be happening is their support teams not been able to review the problem properly after these has happened, except if you’re able to call them on phone, coz tell me why I’m telling the support team that my books are just going live, and nobody have bought it yet, how am I getting terminated for abnormal reading activities; and their response is they are standing on their decisions. Doesn’t make any sense. Anyways, I might be wrong in some aspect, and I’m open for corrections too. Tell us which of this trend almost took your life in the past or recently. Follow me for no reason

  @Jringo1508 In scientific/technical writing, the danger is passing out from exhaustion reading, parsing, analyzing for the edit pass. The third pass where you detect a duplicate clause is particularly "How did this even happen?!? Again ... s l o w e r" It makes me wish so desperately that Amazon "just" had highlights go back to the author with a nudge of specificity: "Red means there's an error here." Glossing over the error in casual reading is directly anti-training for actual editing. Sigh.

  AI doesn't care about your product. It cares about the problems your buyers are trying to solve. Write around use cases, not features. Core principle in my new book. Search the title on Amazon. #GEO #ContentStrategy

  Amazon Sellers ASGTG (@AmazonASGTG) reported 36 minutes ago

  Amazon is still massive -- but brands can’t afford to be @amazon -only anymore. Between rising fees, margin pressure, search volatility, hijackers, review issues, bogus suspensions, and the constant risk of marketplace dependency, the smartest 10m$+ sellers are building real channels off Amazon. Every month, ASGTG tries to sit down with a different marketplace so sellers can understand where the next serious opportunity is — and TikTok Shop is not just another channel. It is crushing it. That’s why we’re hosting an @tiktok_us Shop lunch this Thursday, June 25th, in Brooklyn for qualified Amazon and DTC sellers. Actual TikTok Shop reps will be there in person to walk sellers through onboarding, explain how to launch and scale, and help you open your TikTok Shop account the same day. If you’ve been thinking about expanding beyond Amazon, this is the room to be in. Thank you, Monte Desai, for making this happen

  Horizontal Scaling ≠ Vertical Scaling I still see these two terms confused in interviews and architecture discussions. The difference is actually simple: Horizontal Scaling (Scale Out) ➜ Add more servers or instances to distribute the load. Vertical Scaling (Scale Up) ➜ Add more CPU, RAM, or storage to a single server. Quick memory trick 👇 - Horizontal = More Machines - Vertical = More Power When to use what? Horizontal Scaling - Better for high traffic applications - Improves fault tolerance - Supports almost unlimited growth - Common in cloud-native and microservice architectures Vertical Scaling - Easier to implement - Great for smaller workloads - Limited by the hardware capacity of one machine - A single server failure can impact the entire application Real-world example: Need to handle Black Friday traffic? ➜ Add 10 more application servers (Horizontal). Your database is CPU-bound? ➜ Upgrade from 8 vCPUs to 32 vCPUs (Vertical). The biggest internet-scale systems- Netflix, Amazon, Google, and many SaaS platforms primarily rely on horizontal scaling to serve millions of users. Saved this as a handwritten cheat sheet for quick revision. Hope it helps!

  @SmartassYinzer There are 56 at the Walmart in my town. And this town is relatively "safe" (had to say that because of some of the comments), compared to neighboring town where it rains bullets daily, but there's only 8 pick up spots Save the trouble, just shop elsewhere. Walmart = Amazon = evil

  @AmazonHelp @amazon Yeah, It literally came all the way from Japan with no issues and gets stuck in Tennessee and it's not even USPS's fault, it's literally Amazon's fault that the item will not arrive until after Father's day.

  Ultimately it comes down to "so what?" Because no one in power will do anything about it. They are entrenched in a system that owes its loyalties to anything other than "We The People". They laws are corrupt, written by a select few (then handed off to the gov't flunky), to benefit that same select few. Anything they claim to fight is pure theater. Anyone who disagrees in action instead of just words, is eliminated via the voting booth or worse... One of millions of examples of the corruption: During covid shutdowns, amazon and walmart had direct inputs into the wording of the regulations spewed out around the country that somehow only allowed shopping through them. Pure croney capitalism. The Constitution? Obsolete. They have figured out how to outsource all of their tyranny to private companies and use that to violate the entirety of the Bill of Rights. We are tax slaves, and they are going to suck us dry and toss the corpse into a ditch when they are done with us. They do not care that they are parasites that will die without a host, they are just going to suck and suck and suck. This assumes the best-case outcome. There might be a demonic/evil intent that is considerably worse. Looking at the UK and the grooming gangs, or the US and Epstein, it is not out of the question.

  The uncomfortable truth about TikTok Shop: Most brands aren't actually ready for it. Nobody says this out loud because it sounds like the platform's fault when it isn't. Agencies won't say it because it kills the pitch. Brands won't say it because it means admitting the gap is internal, not external. The platform punishes slow decision-making. A creator needs an answer the same day, not after three rounds of internal approval. A product takes off in a livestream and inventory needs to move within hours, not after next week's planning meeting. Most brands have built systems for stability, not speed, and that works fine on Amazon but falls apart here. Accepting this means building a team that can move at the platform's pace instead of looking for a better creator strategy. This isn't a knock on any brand. Most brands were built for a slower pace of decision-making than TikTok Shop demands.

  Amazon's restock limits aren't arbitrary. They're calculated using your IPI score, sales velocity in the past 90 days, and available FC capacity in your region. If your limit drops suddenly, check for aged inventory first—units sitting 181+ days drag your IPI down fast, and Amazon penalizes slow-turn SKUs harder than most sellers realize. The fix isn't asking for more capacity; it's cleaning up what's already there.

  So I order a replacement remote for my tv on Amazon yesterday. Said it would be delivered today. Now says tomorrow. This seems to keep happening. Anyone else experiencing this? What happened to the prime benefits? First world problems, I know. Just noticing a pattern that’s all.
