Amazon Prime inclusief Premier League voetbal (wel maar 1 wedstrijd per weekend) is wel een "koopje" ivm andere aanbieders. Film/serie aanbod is minder als concurrenten maar in combinatie toch aantrekkelijk.

But several major tech companies are paying for the festivities along the parade route.

Happy Birthday, #Amazon! Früher kaufte ich Bücher lokal, heute kauft Amazon alles – sogar meine Aufmerksamkeit. Der Dash-Button für’s Gewissen fehlt aber noch. Es bleibt: Wer Vielfalt will, muss gelegentlich auf „Prime-Komfort“ verzichten. Dank an Jörg Schieb für den Denkanstoß!

Why forests aren't coming back after gold mining in the Amazon #Amazon

Why forests aren't coming back after gold mining in the Amazon
Forests in the Peruvian Amazon aren't growing back after gold mining—not just because the soil is damaged by toxic metals, but because the land has been depleted of its water. A common mining method known as suction mining reshapes the terrain in ways that drain moisture and trap heat, creating harsh conditions where even replanted seedlings can't survive.

Amazon degradation increases by 163% in two years, while deforestation falls by 54% in the same period https://phys.org/news/2025-07-amazon-degradation-years-deforestation-falls.html

Amazon degradation increases by 163% in two years, while deforestation falls by 54% in the same period
The accelerated degradation of the Brazilian Amazon, primarily due to fires, has overshadowed the significant reduction in deforestation from 2022 to 2024. This "negative balance" in protecting the biome jeopardizes the international goals for combating the climate crisis that have been assumed by the country, which is hosting the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) this year.

For various reasons I get CCs of both sides of new system planning: the customer asking for vague stuff and hardware vendors providing precise quotes and my highly appreciated boss running both conversations.
It is very strange to watch our first “AI” system being defined. Customer built a prototype on a Mac and really doesn’t understand his needs or the constraints. He definitely doesn’t get that servers are different. Or that we aren’t

I think I may have got this giant roll of 2” (I think) flexible pipe….. for free?
I don’t have a receipt for it. All I have is the tracking number. The Amazon order is cancelled so there is no info there. My credit card has two $0 transactions on the date it was ordered.
I was not expecting it to show up. I need to confirm that it is actually 2” but either way, I guess…
