Charliegrs posted:LOL I just got one of those "Our response to Corona virus outbreak" emails from TurboTax. Get hosed TurboTax, you're the reason we can't have a simplified tax process like actual civilized countries have. The Fed knows what we owe or are owed, it's needlessly complicated in the US. Other countries they just sign a form at the end of the year since the government already did the calculations. And it would be that way in the US if TurboTax hadn't bought off half of Congress. So yeah they can go gently caress themselves with their fake concern. My biggest beef with TurboTax is that after 15 years, they patched whatever security hole that was in their software that allowed me to torrent it for free from an offsite since 2005. gently caress TurboTax straight in their rear end in a top hat.

Hell yeah! Harbor Freight is open even though all nonessential stores are closed locally. I needed some wet/dry paper and they were there in my time of need. However, I wanted a new p95 respirator in case I spray paint this weekend but it appears people bought all them along with the n95s.

So can anyone tell me if this is actually a thing or are these people well-intended idiots. We're in the middle of a pandemic and I have seen multiple Facebook posts of people posting things like: "I'm hopping on my sewing machine and whipping up a few dozen masks to take to the hospital. It's the least I can do in these times!!11one #sewmastersdefeatcovid #itrulythinkihaven95ratedduckcloth" My first thoughts are that I understand hospitals are hurting for masks, but they also probably aren't stupid enough to take masks made of Hobby Lobby fabric from some rando do-gooder who might have been exposed to COVID19 themselves or someone in the house where they were produced. A local pharmaceutical company is testing workers and their spouses in a drive-thru testing facility and they are all in hazmat suits and the people stay in the car to get their nose swabbed. I can't imagine hospitals taking masks made of duckcloth with sailboats on it and instead telling them "thanks, but no thanks" and pointing the people toward the nearest trash can or the incinerator.

Dr. Despair posted:It's a thing, the hospitals here (South Dakota) are so short of masks that they're working with some people to get home made masks made now rather than later. I think they ones here are using them over n95 masks as a way to make them last longer, by swapping out the cheap fabric masks between patients and leaving the n95 on to try and minimize cross contamination (versus relying on the fabric as your only protection). That makes much more sense. Thanks for the explanation.

Am I being too conscientious or what...I live in a 850 house community and the past couple days the big thing was a food truck yesterday and a cupcake truck today showing up at the clubhouse. It seems dumb as hell, but I also haven't eaten out since 3/13 when they let us out of school. Hey, let's all show up to the clubhouse and eat food prepped by people who might be infected or maybe the other homeowners. What a bunch of dumbfucks.

Like I'm too good to get my own groceries. ugh. What if I tip really excessively to the point where it's almost a little patronizing? Will that make it okay? I don’t do delivery, but I've been doing pick up for a year or so and now with coronavirus they just come about 10ft from your car, ask if you're cool with substitutions if there are any, they sign for you and load them up. Then, when I get home I wipe down the handle for the hatch with these medical-grade virucidal wipes that my wife got from work that kill the hivvy and everything else. With that said, I do not feel like a bougie piece of poo poo.

We've had 3 local restaurants close this after finding out one or more of their workers tested positive. And those are just the ones that are publicly known. This also includes all the "food trucks are essential businesses"-people like those in our 850-house addition that keeps inviting them to sell food at the clubhouse so they can all congregate without social distancing while shoving piping hot covid down their gullets.

unpacked robinhood posted:Will someone explain why people in Tennessee wait in line around a building for fast food? Same thing here in Indiana. Since schools were let out on 3/13, I pretty much only leave the house in a car once a week for curbside grocery pick up. Every time, every fast food place I pass on the way is wrapped around the building and I don't get it either. With most of the workers being under 25, most would be asymptomatic if they had it and then they're folding your burrito or slinging lettuce onto your Big Macs with the same hands they're coughing into and also the same ones they didn't wash after their last poo poo. The Facebook page for the addition I live in is constant talk not only about the food trucks they keep bringing in so homeowners can all congregate around the clubhouse like a bunch of idiots, but also for the various food delivery services. Now, not only do you have some high school kid coughing on your food during prep, now you add another possible source with the DoorDash driver.

I can't believe that NYC and Florida are in a race to get their kids back in school. FL not as much, but you would think that Cuomo would understand that a big problem in NYC is population density with apartments packed to the gills with people and those apartments all packed into large buildings or high rises. Then, they go ride public transportation shoulder to shoulder and now Cuomo whose brother has the Covvy wants to send kids back into packed classrooms against the NYC mayor's wishes. I've been teaching for 20 years and this time of the year is the hardest part to keep kids on track. You're usually hitting the last of the state standards you need to hit, completing standardized state testing, maybe doing a few "fun" assignments to take students outdoors for a period or two, reviewing for finals, etc. Their heads aren't in it on a good year let alone after being off for 5-6 weeks so let's send them back to school so they can also catch Covid on top of it.

Might regear my Jeep to 4:88s because I've got a guy that will do it with my parts for $150 which is a great price.

My goddamn mother's communal house is apparently under some level of pandemic-time scrutiny (though the specific nature of that scrutiny she herself does not seem to know), and as a result, the elders there have been divvying up the kids to send to houses outside of their property. I guess in case there's a CPS issue or something? WTF. You should just go ahead and call CPS. They can go ahead and put the kid in therapy since he now thinks he's going to be living in a wasteland made up of children with adult corpses covering the landscape.

My wife brought some medical wipes home from her last job. They smell strong at first and you're supposed to use them gloved, but kill hivvy and all kinds of things. We wipe all her stuff down when she comes through the door with one. Speaking of her job, it's been a weird transition for her as she has been thrown into procedures that she'd normally still be observing and they had her participating in procedures within the first week. Luckily, her area of the hospital is somewhat isolated and the patients they get are tested for coronavirus prior to surgery and rescheduled if they have it.

boar guy posted:my gas station doesn't provide those so i just touched everything through a paper towel and then mercilessly sanitized my hands as soon as i got back in the car. gloves are sold out everywhere I haven’t eaten out since early March, have gotten gas once (gloved, and wiped the buttons and handle down with virucidal wipe prior to doing anything), and I pick groceries up. They get loaded in, and when I get home all packaged food is wiped down with virucidal wipes. I would love a gyro or a Taco Bell chili-cheese burrito about now, but I'm not risking my or my family's health to get one. We've had multiple restaurants shut down recently because they had workers test positive....after serving hundreds/thousands of people. I've already mentioned it before, but food trucks keep showing up to our 850-house neighborhood and sell out every time. We've been on our nightly walk a couple times while it's going on and sure enough, 80% of them are all just standing around no masks and grouped together talking. The majority of people just don't take it seriously at all. My last trip to Walmart I had to go in because they've pulled toilet paper off the grocery app. I go in with mask and gloves, grab a 24-pack and head out. I could have counted the number of people with any PPE on one hand.

First, they reported 11 and within a few days they increased the count to 20 after testing them post mortem. Also, I've seen lots of stories about nurses who have straight up stopped showing up for their shifts at nursing homes.
