Most likely, though, people want food for their new pets. Many of the ammo companies are not traded publicly, so numbers are hard to come by. Vista is publicly traded and they have the Remington brand, among others. They are at full capacity, running about 30% over 2019. Currently, they have $1B in backorders.

Hahaha that's funny. I can see the legislative point of requiring a vote for orders lasting more than 60 days.

So much material, so easy, why not?

@jon-nyc said in Parler CEO fired: It doesn’t beg that question it raises it. /pedant mode 'Pedant' is a very charitable interpretation.

@axtremus said in Canadian athletes cautioned on speaking out at Beijing Olympics: @renauda said in Canadian athletes cautioned on speaking out at Beijing Olympics: I'm counting on either a boycott or outright cancellation of the games. +1 Even without China, sports meets for most types of sports featured in the Olympics are unnecessary. You've never competed, have you?

Finally, it can fetch the newspaper and/or the slippers. Not that either task is needed, because newspaper is obsolete and the humans barely change in and out of slippers these days because we all stay at home all day due to the pandemic.

@brenda said in My boss just got fired.: @horace said in My boss just got fired.: @george-k said in My boss just got fired.: Ugh. Do you get a sense of the stability of your situation? Yes, it's fine. The business world has defined people like me, we are "individual contributors". The guy who fired my boss, in this morning's meeting, said that I was the guy who would be writing mission critical tools and algorithms. I proved that in 2020 with what I did in the COVID application. People way above him respect me. That's as it should be, Horace. Glad to hear it. +1

@george-k said in YouTube censors Senate testimony: @copper of course. But, if you're Plumber Joe Sixpack, are you really going to go to the gummint's site to seek this out? Or...YouTube? But, here we are. A private company censoring a public government hearing. What wrong with a private company censoring a public government hearing? Isn't that part of the protection afforded by the First Amendment? Are you taking a position that says whenever a private enterprise's platform becomes sufficiently popular, it has to become some sort of "public platform" that are subjected to additional government regulations not applicable to the less popular platforms? If TNCR ever gets over X million registered users and Y million daily visitors, then all of a sudden TNCR have to follow additional government rules that TNCR did not have to when it had only (X-1) million registered users and (Y-1) million daily visitors?

Best puzzle thread yet.

@mik said in Hey, Brenda: Yeah, I seldom get everything I ordered and I usually don't allow substitutions. But it's still better than going into the store. Exactly. If our local store offered it, I would be using theirs. Instead, they don't seem to have a problem with all the folks who won't wear masks, sometimes including their own staff. I wonder how much business that has cost them.

@xenon said in Britain to test mixing and matching vaccines: This is cool. Should be interesting. +1

@copper said in New York opens for indoor dining!: Mr. Biden killed over 4,000 covid victims yesterday. The blood on the hands of his supporters must weigh so heavily on their souls. I pray for them.

Yeah, I know. But it's just postponing the inevitable. The range has a number of things I don't like about it. Glass top is broken, knobs turn way to easily making it easy to turn the gas on accidentally. Now this.

@kincaid said in Two FBI agents killed: Perhaps a no knock warrant was in order. This is why we can't have nice things. This is why you let the U.S.Marshals do this kind of thing. They're better at it.
