Amazon is buying Bee-AI
[Bee makes a Fitbit-like device that listens in on your conversations while using AI to transcribe everything that you and the people around you say, allowing it to generate summaries of your day, reminders, and suggestions from within the app.

I hate all of this....
Amazon Ring Cashes in on Techno-Authoritarianism and Mass Surveillance
‚Ring founder Jamie Siminoff is back at the helmof the surveillance doorbell company, and with him is the surveillance-first-privacy-lastapproach that made Ring one of the most maligned tech devices. Not only is the company reintroducing new versions of old features which would allow police to request footage directly from Ring users, it is also introducing a new feature that would allow police to request live-stream access to people’s home security devices.
This is a bad, bad step for Ring and the broader public.‘

I was looking for #sata to #m2 #nvme caddy for a #lenovo #thinkpad T460p. Lenovo part number 01HY319. No store here stocks that any longer, obviously. Not even #amazon has sellers actually stocking the part. So I went to #aliexpress. My first time ordering anything from there. I don't trust this site. Let's hope I wasn't scammed.

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!

@MarkHoltom but #USA was (and still is for #Bundeskanzler #FriedrichMerz ex #BlackRock) the big role model how to fuck everything up :(
This system of #Amazon paying 6% #tax in #Luxemburg while all others are taxed 50% and ripped off wherever possible is clearly #unsustainable and almost everyone except #CDU #CSU and #FDP realized that (or they clearly get paid by #Amazon #lobbyists to do nuthin

Apple + Amazon
Heute fiel mir ein befristetes Angebot für ein Google Pixel 9 ins Auge: 499 € statt 899 €. Google verlangt im eigenen Shop tatsächlich immer noch 899 €, auch wenn der Marktpreis langsam gegen 500 €tendiert.
Auch Apple bleibt bis zum Ende eines Produktzyklus stur beim Einstandspreis: Amazon verlangt dagegen sehr schnell nach Einführung weniger als Apple, und das macht bei den meisten Artikel 100 Euro oder meh
