That was a very non-fun day at work.
We’re not using AWS directly, but soooooooooooooooo much other stuff does.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Too many things˚ running on AWS eh?
@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah. The actual services don’t run on AWS, apparently, but often it’s just the login service?! The whole Atlassian suite was “down” today because you couldn’t log in. But if you already were logged in, it wasn’t much a problem.
Weird setup right? 😆
Haha, beds “stopped working” due to that outage? 🤪
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, this is similar to my 2025 GWM Cannon Ute (truck) that we recently bought. It has this app called the “GWM App” that lets you view various health/stats of the vehicle, open/close the door, locks, control the A/C etc, all from your Mobile Phone. – But… Guess what?! :D It has a goddamn fucking SIM card in the head unit (dash) somewhere that once you “consent” and agree it signs up to some god knows what local cellular service and all that wonderul functionality is controlled by, guess what… A fucking goddamn CLOUD service! da actual flying fuck is wrong with these people?! – Are we some of the only people in the world that realize how fucking dumb all this Internet-connect shit™ really is?
Obviously none of this requires an Internet connection, let alone a Network connection. All of it can be done over Bluetooth! Just like Carplay itself!
Like these Car Manufacturers, like GWM, Toyota, Mercedes, BMW and whoever else does this stupid shit™ need to pull their heads out of their asse. :O
