The retail side is also just a huge ad for Amazon as a company. It’s what everyday consumers know even if it doesn’t provide a huge amount of profit. It creates name recognition.

And the more we discuss it here, the more it legitimizes Trump’s AI argument. He’s laughing all the way to the ballot box.
Europe as a whole is not a lot smaller than the US, so I think many of the same efficiencies can be achieved. China has also been able to do it very efficiently and is basically the same size as the US. Granted, they have a much larger population and more potential customers, but it can definitely be done.
Lol
You can have both. Europe has a great mix. So awesome to have the option to take the train or bus. They also have awesome road infrastructure in most places. Try comparing an American freeway to a German freeway. You feel like you’re in a third world country when you come back to the roads in the States.
I wish. The US is endlessly far behind on public transportation.
Talking to my own family members around the US, they only have eyes for their enormous gas guzzler pickup trucks that they use to run to the grocery store down the street.
I’d argue that a progressive country like Denmark with its universal healthcare and universally available college-level education is substantially more free than a freedom-touting country like the United States that limits access to these basics to those with substantial resources.
Lots of proprietary apps for work. No-go for me.
I’d love to go to Linux, but I use so many apps that are only available for Windows.
I have a couple of other constitutional amendments I’d like to advance before this.
Sorry, but still very far behind on this and many other things.
Hold my beer…American pulling out checkbook
Continue the good work, EU. You obviously hit a nerve, so you know you’re on the right track.
And clean up after mowing.
Hmm. Water is wet? Who knew?
It’s important to do my part for the environment, even if it comes at a cost. I’m willing to deal with some initial issues since it’s a newer technology.
Mine does, too. But I’m interested in moving to an EV for the sake of the environment and the planet. Not necessarily a Tesla, though.
IT wages may not be as high in Germany as in Silicon Valley (cost of living is also a lot lower), but they are certainly a far cry from “cheap.” Also, German workers have much, much better labor conditions overall than US workers. They aren’t easy to cast aside like Google has a habit of doing.
The irony is that they are moving to Germany, one of the most unionized countries in the entire world. Also not exactly “cheap” labor.
That’s the good thing about a monopoly. You don’t have to worry about customers choosing another service.
