I spent my day yesterday frantically working to get audio conferencing enabled for several agencies and counties out in California, and I'm sure there's more to come for the forseeable future. We've got several no-cost large scale trials available in the segment, so rather than loosing money Microsoft is spending it to help enable WFH, and hopefully be part of the solution.
I'm personally still not convinced that country-wide quarantine is necessary at this point, but it's cool to see that we as a company are doing our part to make sure there's as much business and education continuity as possible.

On a personal note, I just realized this morning that my 3-year old is about to be out of milk, and there's not a damn thing I can do about it, other than to pray that all these hoarders suffer projectile shitting due to lactose intolerance, or from having to drink soured milk

Protip - Horizon brand Organic milk, if you can find it, has a shelf life of like 45 days or something crazy. Whereas normal milk is like 2 weeks.Originally posted by BradMBut, just like condoms and women's rights, I don't believe in them.Originally posted by LeahIn other news: Brent's meat melts in your mouth.

I havent looked but that's probably a less traveled option

Originally posted by Big A View PostWe usually buy Horizon incidentally, but all brands are gone at Tom Thumb. I just went to Sprouts, as I had heard that they are faring better (they're not), and snagged two of the last three of their store-brand organic Milk, which is all that was on the shelf. I'm not trying to hoard, but I did get the extra gallon for the freezer, only because I don't want to get stuck without again, if I can't time my next shopping trip to just after the truck has been unloaded. So for now Sprouts has a single gallon of milk to sell.

No one has said this will kill millions of people in the US. But if the infection rate isn’t slowed down, the sick will overwhelm the healthcare system - which has happened it Italy. The isolation needed to slow this down is something totally alien to US citizens, and will significantly affect business. Panic never helped anything, but daily life will change tremendously, and we’re going to burn through a lot of money. I hope when this is over, we as a society will be a little tolerant of adversity, a little more willing to work together - and more adaptable. The alternative is chaos.
