I missed a parcel delivery because a computer server in Virginia, USA went down, and now the doorbell on my house in England doesn't work. What. The. Fork.

How the hell did Ring/Amazon not include a radio-frequency transmitter for the doorbell and chime? This is absurd.

To top it off, I'm trying to do my quarterly VAT return, and Xero is still completely borked, nearly 20 hours after the initial outage.
