    It doesn't suck in the evening when everyone is streaming 4K video. Mturk doesn't use nearly that much bandwidth.

    Found a couple of stores in my area with plenty of TP, so do I buy a responsible amount or become part of the problem?

    No I meant if more people are home instead of at work you are competing for bandwidth with those people. You have a drop out there you share, more people home=more competing for it. If your ISP has a huge one out there or you share with people who don't use much net or just not many people you'll be fine, however this is a real issue for some of us.

    I saw a Canadian lab was able to isolate the virus, still probably a long long way from a vaccine.

    It's real, and a good sign, but still a long way from actually being used.

    Do you have problems during peak hours (5pm-10pm)? If it's okay then, it would be okay in the daytime. Working from home stuff isn't high bandwidth most the time. It's video streaming that is the real data hog.

    It depends on the day honestly....sometimes yes and sometimes no.

    The kids being home may be a huge issue though because all the emails being sent home say they're going to basically have them watch a video lesson then do the work.

    Just got back from shopping. It was like the Saturday before Thanksgiving - a few shelves out of stuff like cereal, pasta & sauce, and for some reason flour and sugar - as if suddenly everyone's going to bake. :emoji_thinking:

    Ready...

    I'm thinking about having my kids do the spring clean up outside so we don't have to hire someone this year. I just need to come up with a good incentive to get them to actually do it.
