V (@cinematic_bpm) reported@AmazonHelp It’s redirecting me to the same Customer Service chat where I already spoke with three different agents. Now I’m being sent back to the exact same place again. this is literally the issue I’m trying to escalate.

Luka Radisic (@LukaRadisic) reported@Italianclownz Carlo, is it a good idea to add that 5060 TI 16GB external ( full desktop gpu ) from Amazon at $699 as an agent runner only, no code just 24/7 agent for local devices and error/IT Helpdesk?

rodrigue shema (@rodri_shema) reportedI want to tell you what actually keeps me going when everything is hard. Every month I am still counting on ebook royalties from Amazon to cover my basic costs. my X subscription, My domains, Claude, The tools I need to keep building. some months it covers it. but this months it is $0.38 only. But I still show up every single day. Not because I am confident everything will work and not because I have a safety net but because I made one decision early on that changed everything I started something small even when I had nothing. When I could not afford anything I found ebooks. no upfront cost Just time. that small thing kept me on the internet It kept me in the game and while I was in the game I found ContentAI, then ListTrim, then the domain infrastructure problem that became Infraova. None of that happens if I wait for the perfect moment to start. Here is what I want you to hear if you are in that place right now the place where you cannot pay for the tools, the subscription, the domain, the course you think you need first. Start the small thing the thing that only costs time. not the big idea the smallest real thing you can put into the world today. It will feel too small to matter. It will feel embarrassing next to what you actually want to build but it will teach you something you cannot learn any other way and it will open a door you could not see from where you are standing right now. I am still building Infraova is not done some months are harder than others. But I know something now that I did not know when I started the small thing is never the destination. It is just the door that opens the next one. So my question for you is simple. What is keeping you from starting the small thing today? And for those already in it what keeps you showing up when the month looks like $0.38?

PALATE.FOOD (@Palate_Food) reported*** holes from @amazonIN return partners denied to collect my item to return at my doorstep and told me to bring it all by myself 3 floors down. I spent ₹9990 for this chair and Amazon was at fault. It was a 16 kg box that I had to take it down by myself.

CaptCOjones (@capthuevos) reported@AmberforMAGA Before I retired, I bought many dozens of refurbished HP's from Amazon. They already had the OS on them and ONLY the OS. No bloatware to deal with. We never had any trouble with any of them. Just sort by "Avg. Customer Review"

Clara (@clara_888_stock) reported$NVDA earnings are out, up +3.92% in after-hours. Nvidia completely crushed this report—quarterly revenue hit $96.2 billion, with Data Center alone taking $89 billion, and QNext guidance calling for $108 billion! That means it's about to become the first chip maker in history to cross $100 billion in single-quarter revenue. The most solid detail: Management explicitly confirmed that this $108 billion guidance includes zero data center compute revenue from China. It's powered purely by overseas cloud giants and the mass production of the Rubin platform. Yet after-hours price action was wild—a quick dip before shooting right back up. What's the market stressing over? Whisper numbers were sky-high: Wall Street's consensus was at $92 billion, but whisper numbers from aggressive buyers were pushed above $110 billion. Guidance beat sell-side expectations, but it only hit "just enough" for the ultra-demanding buy side. Slight gross margin squeeze: Projected Q3 gross margin is 74.0%, down slightly from 75% prior. This sparked a minor debate around early-stage production costs for the Rubin platform and price hikes across the HBM supply chain. "Round-tripping" controversy: The CFO directly addressed concerns over Nvidia investing in ecosystem partners like OpenAI, denying claims of "circular revenue" and emphasizing that these strategic checks are meant to resolve AI infrastructure bottlenecks. Jensen Huang noted that "compute power equals revenue." Amazon immediately added an order for 200,000 GPUs, and as soon as the earnings call started, the after-hours stock flipped back into the green. Is this "priced in and good news exhausted," or the prologue to a massive Rubin capacity breakout? Our take is simple: Rubin drastically slashes inference costs, and Nvidia is building out its own open-source models. It'd be weird if it didn't cross 300!

Vrilhancement (@vrilhancement) reportedsulbutiamine. two vitamin b1 molecules stuck together so they can actually get into your brain. not ttfd. not regular thiamine. this is the one people take when the problem isn't "i have no cellular energy," it's "i have no drive." regular b1 is water-soluble and barely crosses the blood-brain barrier (the filter that decides what gets into your brain). sulbutiamine is fat-soluble, so it slips through. japan built it after ww2 when a rice diet was causing beriberi (a nasty b1 deficiency that wrecks nerves). what people actually take it for: - get-off-the-couch energy. not a coffee buzz. the "i can start the thing" switch - motivation / follow-through - brain fog and weak focus - low mood that feels like you just don't care - libido that went missing for no physical reason - post-illness "i still feel drained" (asthenia = just a fancy word for weakness/fatigue) - some athletes use it for mental push, not a muscle pump that's the report from people who keep buying it. the most common one, by a mile, is motivation. what the research actually showed - a french trial in tired people after an infection: 600mg helped at day 7, then the effect faded by day 28 - in depressed patients it did not treat the depression, but it did reduce the "i can't go out / i freeze socially" part. that's psycho-behavioral inhibition: you know what to do, you just don't move - a small 20-person study on psychogenic ed (the kind that's in the head, not the plumbing) reported 16 of 20 improved. not a gold-standard trial. take it as a hint, not a promise - ms patients already on treatment reported less fatigue. people not on treatment did not - mice: better long-term memory. so: this is not a miracle fatigue pill. the honest pitch is drive and "lights on upstairs," not mitochondria the way ttfd is. how people use it: 400-600mg, breakfast and lunch, not at night. some cycle it (a few days on, a couple off) because tolerance builds fast. headaches and feeling wired are the usual complaints if you go too high. oral works. the annoying part: you will not find this on amazon. the fda put sulbutiamine on its dietary-supplement watch list in 2019, and in 2025 told a company it is not a legal dietary ingredient in the us. amazon, bulk supplements, the big shops dropped it. it's a pharmacy drug (arcalion, enerion) in other countries, so in the us you are hunting specialty nootropic vendors, not adding it to a cart next to magnesium.

Nilaxi Patel (@NilaxiPatel4) reportedExtremely disappointed with @amazonindia @AmazonHelp and the way my return request has been handled. I ordered a 3-piece trolley bag set, but when the order was delivered, I received only 1 bag instead of 3. I immediately contacted Amazon Support, clearly explained the issue.

V. R. Craft (@vrcraftauthor) reported@PanasonicDX4500 Would you want to go to Amazonland? You get to the top of the roller coaster and find out you gotta pay again to go back down. Then there's the warehouse attraction where you fill boxes and pee bottles like an Amazon worker. If the ride line is too long, pay extra for a drone.

Straggler Liu | AI & Semis (@StragglerLiu) reportedNVIDIA just reported $96.2B in revenue, up 106% YoY. Gross margins expanded to 75%. Vera Rubin is shipping. FY28 guidance: +70% revenue growth. The headline numbers are extraordinary. But the real story is in the structure underneath. The demand signal is unambiguous. The top five hyperscalers are on track for $800B in CapEx in 2026 and $1.3T in 2027. Cloud industry backlog now exceeds $2T. AWS is deploying an additional 2 million GPUs through FY29. Nearly 20 AI companies now exceed $1B ARR, up from 13 in Q4 of last year. The spend curve is steepening, not flattening. The supply constraint is real and widening. NVIDIA has $366B in commitments, up from $119B in Q1 — a $160B increase, "primarily due to memory." They expect supply to remain a bottleneck through at least the end of FY28. CEO Jensen Huang called it: "Our supply allows us to confidently deliver 70%." The margin story is more complicated. Memory pricing pressure is real. NVIDIA expects gross margins to bottom at 71-72% in Q4 before settling at 72-73% in FY28. That's down from 75% this quarter. HBM scarcity is a symptom of the same AI build-out driving growth, but it's compressing margins in the near term. The financing structure is the hidden variable. This is where the story gets interesting. NVIDIA is no longer just selling chips. It's financing infrastructure. The company has $108.5B in financial guarantees, of which $105B is related to SoftBank. It's partnered with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs, and KKR to raise over $500B for AI lab infrastructure. It offers revenue-sharing structures to neoclouds with take-or-pay commitments and minimum revenue guarantees. On the call, CFO Colette Kress said they know the "circular" label — vendor financing, residual value guarantees, PE platforms, reassignable leases — and still see limited risk because demand is real. That's the debate. Vendor financing works until the end customer's cash doesn't. OpenAI has committed to substantial deployments through 2030, representing approximately 12 GW of NVIDIA compute. NVIDIA expects AI labs — OpenAI, Anthropic, and others — to account for roughly 25% of next year's revenue. These companies are "growing faster than what their balance sheets and credit profiles can support," per the call. The underlying economic logic is coherent but leveraged. NVIDIA points to ROIC on AI data centers now under one year. If AI compute earns 25%+ returns, the leverage is rational. If utilization slips or returns compress, the $1.3T CapEx cycle becomes a stress test on hyperscaler balance sheets — and on NVIDIA's financing structures. For the hyperscalers writing the checks, the cash-flow picture is already tight. Combined CapEx exceeds operating cash flow. Amazon, Alphabet, and Oracle are showing FCF stress. They're funding the gap with debt, leases, and equity. For NVIDIA, the leverage is off-balance-sheet — financial guarantees, revenue-sharing structures, take-or-pay commitments. But it's not zero-risk. The first place it shows up is CoreWeave-style structures and GPU rental rates. If rental rates keep falling, the vendor financing model gets tested. The market is treating this as a pure positive tonight. The credit markets are where to watch. The $1.3T number is bullish for suppliers and a stress test for buyers. The cycle got longer, more leveraged, and pulled forward. Good if ROI holds. A problem if 2027 CapEx is funded with hope instead of cash from AI products. NVIDIA's results are extraordinary. The question is whether the financing structure can sustain the weight of the cycle it's enabling. Watch the credit markets and FCF statements. That's where the real signal lives.

Jarrett Walker (@humantransit) reported@loganb @Noahpinion The street is deserted because people have no reason to be there. Work from home and Amazon are both part of that. Housing is the long-term solution. I am simply objecting to the assumption that the absence of cars has anything to do with the real problem.

Sergio Milheiro (@ManjiinBuuu) reportedOkay, this one genuinely deserves more attention than it got. Vanguard quietly launched a new ETF on August 20th, the FTSE Global All-Cap UCITS ETF, and honestly, I think most people scrolled right past. Tracks about 10,000 companies. That’s basically the entire investable stock market on Earth, large caps, small caps, developed markets, emerging markets, all bundled into one fund. And the fee is what really got my attention: 0.07% a year. That’s almost nothing. For a tiny cost, you’re buying a slice of practically every public company that matters, worldwide, in a single trade. What’s kind of funny is that this actually beats Vanguard’s own All-World ETF, the one everyone already recommends as the simplest “just buy this and relax” fund. The difference is that fund skips small caps, while this new one doesn’t. Ok, is not some magic diversification cure. Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon are still sitting at the top, the US still makes up around 58% of the fund, and tech is still the biggest sector at about a third. So the same names driving today’s market are still driving this fund too. I think the reason nobody talked much about this is pretty simple. Vanguard dropped three new ETFs on the same day, so attention got split three ways instead of one. And on top of that, it launched right when everyone was busy talking about crypto and the Fed. Honestly, this fund doesn’t fix concentration risk, since it’s still very US and tech-heavy, but it does fix something just as important, complexity. Instead of juggling three or four different funds to cover the whole world, now there’s one. One ticker. Practically the whole planet. For 0.07%. Sometimes the most useful innovation isn’t a new strategy, it’s just making the simple thing easier to do.

Invezz (@InvezzPortal) reported@nvidia @theinformation @GaurVatsala Why now? Nvidia's biggest customers- OpenAI, Google, Amazon, Anthropic- are all building their own AI chips to cut reliance on Nvidia GPUs. Owning Hugging Face doesn't fix that directly, but it locks Nvidia into the open-source ecosystem that's fueling demand for compute outside the closed-model players.

The Bounty (@bountyvault) reportedNvidia - The quarter did not save the stock. The Q&A rewrote the company. A 15th beat still sent Nvidia to $207. Sales no longer clear a $5 trillion multiple. The call then answered the three questions that can kill it. Amazon is not walking — house chips take the easy work, Nvidia keeps the rest. The spending is not a loan: Nvidia sells the box, then takes a cut of the rent, and a $50 billion data center now pays for itself in under a year. Duration is not a spike: they guided 70% growth in 2028, below what customers want, because they cannot ship it. Huang went further: for many tasks, AGI is already here. That is a tollbooth, not a GPU shop. They did not answer cash. Sales up, free cash down, $63 billion still owed, $25 billion borrowed. After hours bought the story. Tomorrow’s open still has to buy the books. $NVDA

UnveiledChina (@Unveiled_ChinaX) reportedBeijing-backed Moonshot AI is in talks to secure up to a 30 percent revenue split from U.S. cloud giants Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet's Google to host its 2.8 trillion-parameter model, Kimi K3. Founded by Carnegie Mellon-trained researcher Yang Zhilin and backed by Chinese tech conglomerate Alibaba, Moonshot built a model capable of matching top Western artificial intelligence systems. Because running a model of this massive size requires immense compute power, the Beijing startup needs American cloud infrastructure to expand globally. The timing of these negotiations is raising serious security concerns. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently warned that Washington might place Moonshot on a federal trade blacklist. American officials have accused the firm of improperly obtaining restricted Nvidia microchips and extracting outputs from U.S. AI lab Anthropic to build its system. Moonshot denies the claims, but the pattern is concerning. While federal regulators warn of intellectual property theft and security risks, Silicon Valley's largest cloud providers seem ready to partner with CCP-aligned competitors to capture market share. Should major American tech companies be opening their server infrastructure to Beijing-backed AI developers while national security officials sound the alarm?
