Ødoworitse | DevOps Factory (@ceO_Odox) reportedEvery DevOps engineer knows "It works on my machine" is a lie. Hit a wall today deploying to @awscloud EC2—*** was begging for a password in a headless shell. Error: fatal: could not read Username. Reality: The source URL drifted, and the automation had no keyboard to answer. 🧵

WilliamNextLvl (@WilliamNextLev1) reported@WatcherGuru Only problem is...$NET is not in the business of cyber security. LOL Cloudfare competes with Amazon AWS for serverless computing. (I would buy $NET here...)

Dr. Mihir Sharma (@mihircurovana) reported@AWSSupport Hi @AWSSupport I don’t see any such option in the widget or anywhere in the console, is this an AISL or India specific issue maybe? I see no options to upgrade
-
Tim Reynolds (@__timreynolds) reported@LanDor999 @KatieMiller There will be some real problems with Bezos concerning Amazon AWS and the amount of H-1B visas he's doing. Between the massive layoffs, robotics, and warehouses, $200 billion spent, and counting on AI. another startup is going to do it right from the ground up

Hershal Dinkar Rao (@Hershal0_0) reported@awscloud @PGATOUR still won't help me fix my slice though

Kaspa Mode: ON (@KasConviction) reported@cryptorover Ethereum is not even fully decentralized. No PoS can be with much of the node control on Amazon AWS. ETH is slow, expensive, and not fully decentralized.

Eduardo Rodrigues (@EduardoRod1972) reported@Suporte_Vanlink @AWSSupport @AWSSupport we have to pay a lot of people today, and we can’t use our systems, I believe the restatement needs to be immediately after de payment, this problem impacts in many areas of our company, including external users, many parents can’t see the school transportation in app
-
Jordan Golson (@jlgolson) reported@AWSSupport Okay — kind of nuts that there's no way to log in or reset a password or anything and that the MFA appeared out of nowhere... also that you can have the same login for AWS Builder AND AWS Console and there's no great explanation for why they're different.
-
TopCeo (@TeetheBuilder) reported@KylePause @AWSSupport Are you still having issues with this? I may be of help
-
Ignacio G.R. Gavilán (@igrgavilan) reported@awscloud_es @AWS @awscloud I need to talk urgently with you. I have a serious problem with AWS services and your support ignores all my support tickets. I prefer an in-person contact, in spanish if possible.
-
Paulo (@Paulolethal) reported@AWSSupport This doesn't solve my problem; if they're not going to include Claude Opus 4.7 in Kiro, then I'll switch to another tool.
-
Bryan (@0xp4ck3t) reported@AWSSupport URGENT - We have business + and we should be able to get a response from AWS within 30 minutes for critical issues. It's been hours, our **** DB is down. We need someone to have a look on it. Case ID 177566080000785

Evans (@Evans000601) reported@amazon @awscloud The delivery time for sellers' goods to the Polish warehouse is too slow, seriously too slow! Things like KTW5, XWR3... Could Amazon please optimize this or give us some more details?
-
Rahul Khatri (@Rahulk644) reported@AWSSupport. Trying to resolve a $200 billing from accidentally left-on resources after our student startup shut down. I've had 2 cases open requesting a waiver & account closure, but both have sat unassigned for 1 month. Need urgent help. Cases: 177520122800121 177591632700789

Nigel (@Witherndale99) reported from Oakville, Ontario@awscloud Human interface really sucks right now. Its difficult to use, error prone, lacks 99% of the users knowledge and context. So, a non invasive, adaptive interface, capturing input without contact, and also the ability to access my knowledge, experience, thoughts, and emotions
-
CodieEditor (@CodieEditor) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Still, there is no fix for this billing. We hold to using our AWS account to avoid further unexpected costs. Please fix Opus 4.7's billing issues in Bedrock. I think all AWS users might be facing this issue at some point.

ُ (@lijvvz) reportedWe are increasingly frustrated by the ongoing high ping issues in Fortnite for players in Saudi Arabia. Despite the region’s massive and growing player base, we continue to face poor connectivity, unstable performance, and a clear competitive disadvantage @awscloud @EpicGamesES
-
Dr. Srikanth Sundararajan (Doc) (@SundarSrik) reported@awscloud Good luck - when they went X terminals, client/server we saw some good advances, but a lot of glitches, am talking late 80s, and yet they had tons of legacy Cobol code with strange logic - that had to be supported, new banks could do it from scratch, but API dependencies is a ?

zI£|~ (@Stunner_99) reported@AWSSupport Yes I have. But on socials all other direct platform is not working

Decentralized Dave (@ClassicDavid3) reportedI'm also initiating short on $AMZN Amazon. Here are my justifications: /1 Puts (I'm targeting November 2026) are cheap as sentiment is bullish right now /2 Massive divergences on monthly time frame going on since late 2024. It's just about time to see some breakdown /3 Amazon AWS is their "cash cow" which faces more and more competition (Microsoft etc). Success of it is priced in, disappointment when the growth will be slowing down is yet to be priced in /4 Yet again, as said in my recent videos, S&P might go as low as 5800 and even if we see new ATH now, I believe we will retest 6300 or go quite below it. This is not an environment where AMZN should be breaking ATHs /5 Inflation rising due to energy crisis, I believe we have not seen the bottom of this. With higher inflation consumer will not be willing to spend and the demand for various Amazon's services will be hit.

Saikumar Ade (@SaiPrinto) reported@AWSSupport Hi AWS Support, I had logged in for my exam, but due to a network issue it didn’t start. I was fully ready otherwise I would have rescheduled earlier. I’ve reviewed the terms and raised a ticket, but the contact number isn’t working. Please help me reschedule. This is urgent.

OpeningAi.com | For Sale (@openingai_com) reported@awscloud Banking tech has been running on ancient code for decades. Time to burn it down and build it back with AI.
-
NFT and CRYPTO Fan (@MC59785335) reported@AWSSupport Thank you for support . Actually i think with support + or even with regular plan such kind of issues like restore limits should be resolved in 1 hour range. However im still have not received any answer regarding my case..
-
Mohammad Imran (@mohdemraan) reported@AWSSupport This is not about account suspension. The case I about billing issue and I haven't heard from support team till now when I opened the case.
-
CodieEditor (@CodieEditor) reported@AWSSupport Already sent, please take a look. This problem is with only the use of Claude Opus 4.7 via Bedrock; billing of other services are working totally fine.

Trevor Skinner (@PrometheusAIsec) reportedI’m getting real tired of watching this industry pretend dependency is innovation. The entire tech world got sold on the idea that hardware was the problem and cloud was the solution. And to be fair, Amazon AWS played it perfectly. From a business standpoint, it was brilliant. Make infrastructure easy. Make it scalable. Make it fast. Make it cheaper to start. Then make it harder and harder to leave. That’s the part nobody wants to talk about. At first, cloud feels like freedom. No racks. No servers. No switches. No up-front hardware cost. No late nights swapping drives, troubleshooting power, rebuilding arrays, or fighting broken infrastructure. But over time, that freedom can turn into a leash. I’ve seen enough real-world systems to know the difference between convenience and control. Access control, networking, servers, security hardware, firewalls, cameras, panels, credentials, cloud dashboards, hosted platforms, vendor portals — it all looks great until the business depends on something it does not actually own. That is where the trap starts. One vendor controls the platform. One vendor controls the pricing. One vendor controls the updates. One vendor controls the outage window. One vendor controls the rules. One vendor controls the ecosystem. Then businesses slowly build everything around it. Compute, storage, databases, backups, monitoring, identity, deployment, physical security, access control, video, alerts, compliance, logging, and billing. By the time they realize how deep they are, leaving is no longer a simple decision. It becomes a migration project. A budget problem. A staffing problem. A security concern. A downtime risk. A business risk. That is not just convenience. That is a dependency loop. And what frustrates me the most is that the same industry that used to understand real infrastructure now acts like ownership is outdated. Owning hardware is not outdated. Understanding networks is not outdated. Knowing servers is not outdated. Knowing how systems work underneath the dashboard is not outdated. Building hybrid infrastructure is not outdated. It is control. Cloud has its place. Hosted systems have their place. Managed platforms have their place. I am not against any of that. I am against companies blindly giving up ownership, knowledge, and leverage, then calling it progress. Because when your entire business depends on someone else’s platform, someone else’s pricing, someone else’s rules, someone else’s uptime, and someone else’s permission, you do not own your technology. You rent permission to operate. Prometheus V2 is built different by RocketCore.
