I kind of stopped reading at “amazon suports (at least use proper grammar) new nuclear power plants.”
Somewhat ruined article’s/website’s credibility with that one sentence
I do not need reasons, I need ways.
Amazon is more than a shop. You can’t escape amazon web services.
FTFY: *10 reasons to avoid capitalism
If it’s not Amazon, it’s another shitty company which exploits everyone and everything to maximize profits without regard to the well-being of humanity and life itself.
We need fundamental, systemic changes which grab those malpractices by their roots and rip them out. Our life will not get better if we continue to allow corporations like Amazon to exist.
Purge them from the face of the earth. Life is too precious to be sacrificed for the sake of greed and corporate dominance. A new paradigm must emerge, one that values people over profits and prioritizes the health of our planet. We need to foster a society built on mutual respect, fairness, and sustainability, where every individual has the opportunity to thrive. Only then can we hope to create a future that benefits all of humanity instead of a few.
I agree with the message, but these two points following each other feels a little hypocritical:
“Amazon is supporting new nuclear plants” and “Amazon has a poor climate record”
Nuclear power is the most effective way to get out of climate change. Caring about climate change and being against nuclear power at the same time is a contradictory position to take, and needlessly puritanical.
If we could only rely on renewables, that would be very nice. That is not currently the case. We should strive to have more renewable energy, while keeping in mind nuclear power is here to stay and even be expanded as we eliminate carbon emitting sources of energy.
i disagree. nuclear power is expensive to build (usually exceeding the planned costs), is not resistant to high heat in summer (as shown by french summers), and a proper way of getting rid of nuclear waste is still not developed.
One Big Chart: how does the cost of nuclear power compare to renewables?
CSIRO confirms nuclear fantasy would cost twice as much as renewables https://www.climatecouncil.org.au/resources/csiro-confirms-nuclear-fantasy-would-cost-twice-as-much-as-renewables/

And how many times the cost of renewables are the required batteries to make it not nearly useless? More than 2x, that’s for sure. Nuclear is the clear choice for base load and renewables for loads above that.
The good thing about science is that it doesn’t care if you disagree, it just works the way it does
What I don’t get is HOW people shops on Amazon, their search engine is the shittiest I’ve seen in a long time: “you searched for AMD RX1234 video card; here is a RX1235, a RX1024, and another one from a completely different brand! People also searched for other that is maybe related to that”
People are looking for “king sized sheets” of “paper towel holder” not gtx4070ti super from gigabyte or esp32 chipset bullshit is how. Most people are getting basic shit, not trying to get around Newegg or a PC parts supplier.
That’s not a real sharp take tbf.
People looks also for those, they wouldn’t have a “Cyber” event specifically for that otherwise; anyway it shouldn’t be hard, in 2025, for one of the biggest online shops, to have an internal search engine capable of discerning one product from another.
