I always have something to say.

Like today, when I was p-d at Apple for the automatic update that got stuck halfway through and killed the phone for about seven hours.

Ugh, don't bring up Dell phones.  We made a brief but messy foray into that market maybe a decade ago?

I have two Dell laptops sitting in front of me. One is a chromebook, one uses the MS OS.

It was my iPhone that was the problem. Grrr.

On the bright side, I didn't have any phone calls or texts this morning.

My 2012 Samsung phone has never had a hiccup, and the battery still rocks for 24 hours.

I'm using a Surface Pro now. F'ing Bill gates probably inserted a chip in my finger using the keyboard.

Don't worry about Bill. That 2012 Samsung is probably doing a great job of tracking you.

You guys want to talk surveillance and the like? My daughter has a "Chuwi" laptop/tablet that has to have ALL of the Chinese intel agencies watching it. So if you start seeing pretty good manga drawings of emo rock stars showing up for sale, let me know and I'll start looking into licensing and IP violations.

seems to me that washing your hands didn't help much

seems to me that wearing masks doesn't help enough

seems to me that the only thing that works is social distancing and more importantly, just staying home!  Don't go out and about!

obviously, more and more folks are not willing to stay locked up in a safe place.  They are going out and mingling in small or larger groups.
Seems to me too many people never did any of these things.  They only work if we all do them.

I don't know this as certain, but I starting to think that some of those that wear masks in public and give me dirty looks and judge me for not wearing a mask are the same folks attending weddings, funerals, and small gatherings and spreading the virus.

They're hearts are in the right place, they just aren't as careful, diligent as they need to be to keep from contacting and spreading the virus

No, they would work if some of us did them to some degree, and of course work better is most did them.  But the virus would spread even if we all did them, just not as fast.

None of these measures are close to 100% effective, they are a deterrence, statistically significant but individually probably irrelevant.
