Teamsters requested an investigation of the flood from Amazon's warehouse that swamped a picket line in Queens; they also filed for a restraining order against the NYPD.

    I bet it’s some kind of “accident”, just like when they “accidentally” cut down the shade trees over the Hollywood strikers.

      They can violate the laws and there is nobody within the government to advocate for the working class.

      The government is there to protect owners and their corporations from us. The issue is that they are the ones waging the war on the working class.

      I’ve really been trying hard to convince people to use Digital Ocean or GCP instead of AWS but it’s a hard road. AWS has become the Microsoft Office of web services, where most companies won’t even consider alternatives.

          Typically AWS is cheaper than the other majors. Some of the minors can be cheaper if you don’t need all the bells and whistles. AWS’s free tier is incredibly hard to beat for tiny hobby things and learning. At enterprise scale, you really have to go with a major over a minor if you need volume. The minors fit best for a very specific, smaller niche that will never allow them to grow enough to take on the majors.

          I have only ever found AWS to be stupid expensive for new things before they get called out for price gouging.

      I understand it from people who live remotely. People who have to drive 45min-hour to get to a major grocery store or a Walmart or whatever. But if you live in Ann Arbor, or New York. What are you doing?
