Im not going to argue with you, I will just point out one thing. Contact tracing apps have 0 effect on disease spread, all they do is keep track of who you might have exposed (after exposure has taken place). The mask on the other hand has a greater than 0 chance to potentially block some of the virus particles that…

they have the same problem when the mothership (Amazon) sells stuff like this on Woot. Always called “solar” when the device for sale does not have the solar component.

spend hours detailing your character including facial hair, cool tribal tattoos, detailed hair work and textures... immediately equip face mask, hood, long sleeve armor...

I had to stop listening at the Covid death rate question when Pence did everything BUT answer the question. It was obvious then that he had no intention of actually debating, he’s just going off on random non-tangents until his time runs out and he can feel good about patting Trump’s back for doing nothing.

as soon as news broke that Trump had tested positive, we all KNEW that he would spin it as a PR boost when he magically recovered. Was he really sick? We don’t know for sure but some of the videos sure look like he was not doing very well. Is he really “cured”? Well, since we don’t have an actual CURE for the virus…

more accurate title “Reduce your cord count by 1” since this charging pad still requires a cord and only has space to charge 2 devices, I mean a phone and a watch, at once...

I guess I’m lucky - the district that we are in recently put a COVID tracker on their website that lists the number of cases per school. It’s updated once a week, but at least there is something for those of us who want to keep an eye on it before committing to sending a child to in-person lessons (they let us choose…

“If you don’t feel safe, don’t go,”- that works OK for a football game, but when businesses start to open up and require that their workers come in to offices without proper safety precautions, it’s a classic “rock vs hard place” situation. Especially when the decision was made that if businesses opened, then…

our school has a myriad of apps/sites as well. Some video lessons are hosted in the Canvas app. Others are linked through Kids Youtube. Others are... wherever they land I guess. Some assignments have to be done in SeeSaw (which has MAJOR problems recording audio for reading assessments), others are done in a reading…

My daughter (first grade) started out doing pretty well with the online schooling, but this last week has been a real test for both of us.

The officer did not know about the outstanding warrants at the time of the physical assault. They had no idea the identity of this person when he was accosted and beaten senseless. Or are you merely insinuating that the mere fact of felony warrants waives any rights to not getting the shit beat out of you by law…

I guess I am lucky - my 6 year old is excited and bugs me asking when the next call with her teacher is. It might help that she likes school (first grade, this will change) and the teacher has them doing fun stuff on the calls like singing and the scavenger hunts, and stuff like that to keep them engaged. Plus the…

the difference is that those of other religions are a lot more tolerant than the Christians who think that somehow wishing a happy holiday is an insult to Xmas (the celebration of which was stolen from the Pagans and not really tied to Jesus’s birth anyway).

While rationalizing the term “parent” to be more related to “caregiver” than to biological birth may work for adults, a young child might not really be able to equate “give this to your parents” to mean the same as “give this to those that are taking care of you”. I think the phrasing of “grown ups” is more for the *li…

that account is an obvious troll account made for posting shit like that. Feels like there should be some moderation before new accounts should be allowed to post and obvious names should auto-flag as garbage and be rejected.

technically at some point everyone had parents, but some of them may not have their parents anymore and might be taken care of by another relative like aunt/uncle/grandparent. This is not “pandering”, this is simply choosing to find a way to be more inclusive to those that might not still have parents, or that might…

something I find kind of telling is the “comorbitities” list of other conditions that the deceased people suffered from at the time of their death. Some of the conditions listed are extremely common in America, chiefly Hypertension (high blood pressure) and Obesity. Nearly half of Americans suffer from one or both of…

I would recommend setting up a new VERY low limit Credit card in your name and make them an authorized signer instead. Doing that will actually get them to start a credit history very early (makes it easier to get a better rate on a real card later in life), learn the importance and impact of interest (try to pay it…

what color would Crazy be? I know Envy is green, Anger is red, Sadness is blue, etc. 

If schools reopen, how do they handle if a student suddenly tests positive? Do they have every student in their class quarantine at home for 14 days? Does the teacher have to quarantine too? Do those 14 days come out of their Sick Time?

If a teacher comes up positive, does the entire class quarantine, or do they try…
