@taiwan_girl Yes, that's correct, TG.

Do the stats measure parallel productivity? Let’s say a well-meaning participant gets invited to a meeting but his active participation is needed for only 5 minutes out of the 45 scheduled for the meeting, so for the other 40 minutes he either “arrived late” or “left early” or “be on mute with video off” and still remain productive working on other things. I’d be very surprised if a company doing its measurements based only on what’s recorded in virtual meetings can get to these things that are not recorded by virtual meeting tools. This well-meaning participant would just contribute to the “arrive late” or “leave early” or “mute/video off” statistics. Before you ask “why invite someone to a 45 minute meeting when he’s only needed for 5”, the practical answer is there are many things for which a 5-minute real-time interactive Q&A can resolve a lot more than back-and-forth group emails that take over 50 minutes to compose.

Same here, we get them at Costco, too. The ONLY downside is when the kids eat pasta, Rao's seems to have much more of a red/stain on their cheeks than other pasta sauces.

BTW, the F-16 production line in South Carolina is still working on orders for foreign governments. Modernization of older F-16's is still done back at the old Texas plant.

Brilliant.

Somewhat serious, somewhat not serious question. But, will some birds live that would otherwise be killed by bird "lung cancer" or something equivalent since wind and solar are not as pollution causing as fossil fuel plants.

Like any pack of ravenous animals, the leftist mob can sniff out an 'other' who can't be trusted to toe the line. The pretense of righteousness can become almost an afterthought. At some point, it is just a transparent feeding frenzy of barely evolved primates.

If I was her, I'd hire a good law firm...Dewey, Cheatham & Howe.

C'mon, man. There's no need for that, just wipe your ass with the buns and be done with it.

Yeah, we’ve heard and seen it around here. We’re also having a nasty allergy season. Poor Finley’s eyes are more bloodshot than @jon-nyc ’s when he lived in Brazil… And at night he’s getting nasal congestion bad enough that he’s not sleeping well… Last night I bet we had under 4 hours sleep…

Beautiful

He became a piano tech and stopped posting because he thought expressing controversial views was not good for business. Last I heard, anyway.

@Horace said in MTG, the most powerful woman in politics.: Is this stuff accumulating votes for the left? I get that the bloodthirsty rabble in that tribe become engorged at the idea of violent retribution against Jan 6 doofuses, but their votes are in the bag anyway. Might as well try I guess. Nothing else is accumulating votes for them anyway.
