      Yeah I got an announcement in my email about it. I was reading about it here: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2019/12/announcing-new-amazon-ec2-m6g-c6g-and-r6g-instances-powered-by-next-generation-arm-based-aws-graviton2-processors

I think the majority of wall clocks remain analogue. You might disagree, but I feel like most people find analogue clocks to be a lot more attractive. People think of analogue clocks as fancy decor for their house, digital is more for bathrooms or bedside tables. No I don't disagree.

      @scottalanmiller said in Amazon is cutting hundreds of corporate jobs,: @penguinwrangler said in Amazon is cutting hundreds of corporate jobs,: @scottalanmiller said in Amazon is cutting hundreds of corporate jobs,: But hopefully adding thousands in a new office. I would think this would happen due to restructuring, in anticipation of the new HQ. Have they announced where it will be? I've not seen it announced yet. Seems like it would be big news when they do. It has not been announced. A narrowed down list was announced in January I believe.

      @storageninja (I know some Nutanix guys tried it but kept burning out SATA DOMs). Sata dom? Who the f*** still uses them? Even when I was a c++ coder in automation industry we were phasing out them 3 years ago! Just mainteinance of production stuff. Btw I see your point.

      @jrc said in Audiobooks: The "free" audible with Prime is very limited in scope, you'd have to subscribe to the full Audible to get audiobooks. That said I drive, like a lot, 2 hours each way to work everyday. And audio books are a big part of what keeps me sane. If I went the audible way then I would be bankrupt pretty quickly. Libraries are a good place to get audio books, but I still go through them faster than I can get them, though most libraries have online digital checkout options for audio books, so check with your local library on that. When all else fails I torrent audio books. I belong to a private torrent community that does nothing but audio books. It has come in very handy. I really wish someone would start a Netflix type audiobook service, and all you can listen to flat rate service. 4 hours of drive! What else you do during that long drive? I like the idea of a Netflix kind service, but if you look at it Amazon probably covers a huge library of books! I wish Audible had an unlimited book options on a flat rate.

      @DustinB3403 said in Amazon Go and the Future of Shopping: The only issue I see with something like this is now you'll hire security to confirm purchases as people are entering / leaving. Should be less staff over all, but a bit more police state shopping. The companies who start moving in this direction are not the same ones who will treat their customers like criminals over the possibility that one item didn't get rung up. I have worked on projects to try and do warehouses this way, but time and time again, the RFID ends up being just too expensive per tag to make it worth it. We already have the technology to fill a cart with items then as a customer walks out, a gateway over the door can count it all, and bill them. I am betting Amazon has just found a way to bring cost down slightly on existing technology.

Tested functionality to confirm success. Left. NO idea what was keeping that from happening when you tried to do it, but it gave me no issues. Only thing I can think of is that Microsoft switched my account this morning, so this might be a new one. Only change that has been made in a very long time, maybe two years since MQ took over managing my account. Yeah, it "magically" worked for me suddenly because MS made a change this morning...

      @DustinB3403 said in Amazon Does First Drone Delivery: @stacksofplates A lot of the same issues persist. Tracking, negative thrust compensation, flight control. You'd be better of strapping a gun to your drone, and manually flying it up to the other drone to just shoot it down with a remotely fired gun. Which leads us back to the issues I pointed out originally. Ok I'm not going to argue with you about this. If you attach another drone to a drone, it's not going to be able to carry it. Ever tried to fly a drone with a barely bent prop? They don't work, it would be nearly impossible to fly one with something attached to it that isn't carefully weighted in the center. And again, they have drones that can jam the signal and take control anyway.

      Looking at the details page, here is a limitation depending on how you handle client accounts, or your own accounts. What are the Lightsail service limits? You can currently create up to 20 Lightsail instances, 5 static IPs, and 3 DNS domain zones in a Lightsail account. But this is pretty cool. Ability to manage traffic before it hits your VPS: Can I manage firewall settings for my instance? . You can control the data traffic for your instances by using the Lightsail firewall. From the Lightsail console, you can set rules about which ports of your instance are publicly accessible for different types of traffic.

      @Dashrender said in Amazon Echo vs Amazon Dot vs Google Home: Considering the complete and utter lack of security in almost anything that actually allows remote control (i.e. JB and his cameras that demand UPNP open ports for the world - thank you NO) I currently refuse to use any of that stuff. That said, I do have an Amazon Echo - after hearing Scott say how cool they are - and now I just sit back and wonder why. Sure I have it play Amazon music on it's crappy speaker (ok a dot could fix that) 1 time a month on average, I ask it the weather about 2 times a month on average... Otherwise I'm constantly annoyed, almost nightly by it saying "I'm sorry Dave I didn't understand the question I heard" while watching a show where no one said Alexia. I guess my wife and I have asked it a question here or there, but it fails to know 9 out of 10 times and we fall back to google to get the answer. That is the other thing I do like about the Google Home vs the Amazon equipment. Google seems to be much better at answering general questions, and you can ask it follow-up questions, something the Amazon Echo/Dot is lacking. Also, even if Google hasn't fully integrated all their services with it yet, I have zero doubts they will in the future. I'm leaning more towards the Home at this point, tbh.
