I took my daughter to buy a car today. The dealership could not run credit report due to AWS outage. She called the bank, they could not approve a large transaction because of the AWS outage. We went to the DMV, they were able to get her a replacement car title, but also mentioned some systems were down. Back to the dealership where they could not do the credit application to buy the car.

In a completely unrelated note, I think I have some ideas for disrupting Capitalism...

Next year: I could not start my car because AWS was down.

@BobHorowitz @rasterweb Hope you’re not hungry, because you’ll also be locked out of your fridge.

Not to worry. I can survive on my earthquake stash of peanut butter and pop-tarts 👍
@BobHorowitz @rasterweb Ooooh if they’re the s’mores one you can make a peanut butter s’more sandwich!
