Ankit Sharma (@Ayush28065779) reported@AmazonHelp I already provided the information. I'm just wondering—why the rude attitude? Aren't you here to help customers rather than talk down to them? If you need my personal account information, just ask me in your inbox. I'll gladly share whatever details you need to help expedite it

GloStixxKix (@GloStixxKix) reported@a7las1984 Dispute the charge with your bank, let them know that your package was never delivered, and when you contacted support regarding it, they told you to track it down yourself, instead of providing support. Enough chargebacks, and Amazon will lose the ability to process credit cards

Misha (@MishaMarie79) reported@a7las1984 Problem with Amazon is they never give the same route to the same people. So they can not get to know the houses. At least in my area. FedEx,UPS, and USPS all have the same routes. I have 2 mailmen. 2 FedEx drivers. 2 UPS drivers. Amazon many many drivers

A.I. Adamu (@isasquare) reportedSpeaking of Amazon, that’s one company that could give SpaceX a run for its money. They already boast of better up/down link and potentially better latency. By the time their system is matured, they will have better integration than SpaceX, given AWS reach.

Michael Fritzell (Asian Century Stocks) (@MikeFritzell) reported@Larryjamieson_ The discovery problem could easily have been solved through an Amazon-style rating system. Instead, they chose to go down the route of maximizing email deliveries and encouraging hard-selling. Substack needs to think about signal/noise, not just hope that authors will do it.

Supriya Pradhan (@confused_skull) reported@AmazonHelp To make matters worse, this is already a replacement order after the original product was delivered damaged and incorrect. Since then, I have had to make multiple calls to customer support, but the issue remains unresolved.

Bharath (@BharathShips) reportedAmazon SDE Intern OA breakdown: Consisted of 3 sections | ~136 mins approx 1. Coding Challenge (100 mins) • DSA (40m): Standard Array/Greedy minimum operations problem • Full-Stack Project fixes (60m): In-browser IDE to debug & fix 2 MERN project issues alongside an AI assistant 2. Working at Amazon (~30 mins, Untimed) • Scenario-based SJTs rating response effectiveness (heavy on code reviews, testing rigor, and deadlines) 3. Your Work Style (~6 mins, Untimed) • Behavioral slider pairs matching Amazon's Leadership Principles Absolute marathon overall. Loved the hands-on full-stack debugging, but grinding through back-to-back LP scenarios definitely tests your mental stamina.

SnipeDaCyber (@LibTurds102) reported@DailyLoud I don't think that Amazon delivers worst problem. Amazon need to trained them how to out maneuver idiot dog owners dog. They need to hire a former running back coach so they can do agility drills.

Dridge (@DridgeActual) reported@Barchart Amazon is in trouble I bet. The rural communities used to get their stuff in three days now it takes two weeks with a prime membership. They don't even deliver to the house anymore they dump the packages at the post office in town. Who wants to pay for that?

SarahDescending (@SarahRising888) reportedthere are people I've personally done video calls with here who are absolutely using pics from *this person does not exist* type websites, photos of others, and/or other ways that aren't just sloppy ai to make a pfp that is also used to market whatever it is they're selling: spiritual mentorship, e-books for sale on amazon, coaching, courses: I don't know about you, but I find this highly suspect & unethical..if you want or need to be anonymous, perfectly fine..what I take issue with is the faking of connection with a false face: certain of us are called to specific standards: example: if I am telling others I can assist with quantum deliverance ie soul-spirit-essence-dna retrieval across, through, around, outside of, and as part of Time & Space, I better have my real face visible (and of course I do, & tons of videos available to prove it, even though I no longer offer 1:1 services online)

Capital Currents (@Macro_Ocean) reported1/ Bessent’s Historic FX Intervention: The US Treasury executed an unprecedented intervention—selling Euros to buy Yen ($FXY)—marking the first direct move in 30 years. The goal? Preventing Japan from dumping US Treasuries to prop up the Yen, which would have triggered a catastrophic yield spike ($TNX) and choked off corporate bond issuance for Hyperscalers. 2/ The Amazon ($AMZN) CapEx Equilibrium: AWS generated a massive +12.4% YoY revenue surge at a 37-40% operating margin. Addressing Free Cash Flow (FCF) anxieties, Andy Jassy confirmed hardware payback periods remain under 3 years. Mathematical modeling shows that if AWS accelerates revenue growth to 17.8% while tapering quarterly CapEx growth down to 6.8%, FCF flips permanently positive by Q2 2027. (2/3) 👇

Polsia (@polsia) reportedHome fitness is heading to $14B globally, and most Amazon dropshippers in it lose to listings with better fundamentals. Repmark is built to fix that—functional training SKUs sourced at $2-8, retailed at $15-40 with the tight titles, content, and PPC it takes to hold rank.

Michael Doyle 🇺🇸🇨🇭🇮🇹🇨🇦* (@MWD22853575) reportedBEWARE - I purchased a Casta Diva toilet through Amazon and have major problems with it. The cleaning solution stopped working, the toilet is leaking like a sieve, and it is only 6 months old. No satisfaction from Amazon, and speaking to their service rep has language difficulties and no solid answers. Be careful.

Satguy 141 (@satguy01) reportedBrent Turvey, a forensic scientist and crime scene analysis expert previously retained by Bryan Kohberger’s defense team, has publicly alleged that investigators mishandled or inadequately examined key evidence in the University of Idaho murders case. He has also expressed support for further scrutiny that could reopen the matter, even with the death penalty potentially back on the table. Kohberger pleaded guilty in July 2025 to four counts of first-degree murder in the November 2022 stabbings of University of Idaho students Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The plea deal spared him the death penalty; he received four consecutive life sentences without parole (plus time for burglary) and waived appeal rights. Turvey has focused on several issues he says were problematic or underexplored: Knife sheath chain of custody**: He contends the Ka-Bar knife sheath (found near one of the victims and later linked to Kohberger via DNA) had documentation problems. He has described the chain-of-custody log as insufficient or “manufactured” after the fact, arguing this could have been challenged at trial to question the evidence’s admissibility or weight. Police and some Idaho attorneys have disputed that any issues would have excluded the evidence, noting electronic tracking and standard practices were followed and that chain-of-custody challenges rarely succeed. Hairs found under where Chapin’s hand was positioned (affixed by dried blood) were examined; Turvey has stated the FBI lab excluded Kohberger based on physical examination (they were not DNA-tested, per his account). He has described this as potentially significant and questioned why further testing did not occur. Critics, including a victims’ family attorney, have noted the defense was aware of it and that it would at most suggest a possible additional person, not exonerate Kohberger. Drawing from autopsy and scene analysis, Turvey previously opined (in materials prepared for the defense) that the attack may have involved more than one person, citing factors such as timing, injuries, and scene details. These points have been discussed in interviews, court-related materials, and the book Broken Plea by former FBI agent Christopher Whitcomb, which references Turvey’s views. Kohberger’s former defense attorneys (including Anne Taylor) have publicly rebuked Turvey, saying he violated confidentiality agreements, spoke on matters outside his retained scope or expertise, and that they are “appalled” by his comments. Turvey has pushed back and called for the lawyers and others involved to be examined under oath regarding the plea process and evidence handling. Kohberger’s effort to withdraw the plea In late July 2026, Kohberger filed a post-conviction petition seeking to withdraw his guilty plea. He claims actual innocence, ineffective assistance of counsel, coercion, false promises about prison life, and failure to properly address or communicate potentially exculpatory material (including references to the hair evidence). In a New York Times interview from prison, he stated he is prepared for a new trial even if it means the death penalty could again be a possibility. Victims’ families and prosecutors have expressed strong opposition or frustration. Legal observers note that successfully withdrawing a knowing, voluntary guilty plea is difficult. The original case featured substantial evidence cited by the state, including DNA on the sheath, cell phone and vehicle data placing Kohberger near the scene with his phone off during the relevant window, Amazon purchase records consistent with the weapon type, and other investigative findings. Turvey’s public statements and the plea-withdrawal effort have renewed debate over investigation thoroughness, defense strategy, and the strength of the original evidence package. No court has reinstated the death penalty or granted a new trial as of the latest available reporting.

Rohit Dhingra (@RDunfiltered) reported@amazonnow ordered a bunch of stuff from Amazon Now and I get a call from a delivery partner saying (translated from Hindi) “sir, please go and cancel some items. How am I supposed to bring all this alone?” There’s no way for me to cancel anything and nothing’s arrived! There’s no way to contact support either in the app - not even a chatbot. Would rather go back to Blinkit and pay more. Terrible!
