Everyone is scrambling to set up work from home. Could laptops be the next shortage?

I gave up on Microsoft 365 monthly subscription for the software I need to work with one of my clients - I just needed it temporarily, the server was so clogged it would not let me into it. I then went to Staples.com and ordered the local install download. Have been trying to get the electronic delivery for close to an hour now, it's now at 60%. I would say Microsoft is getting hammered on software sales right now. Crazy times.

Why do people keep coming in with this take?

Birth control exists.

When was the last time you people had sex with someone under 50? Do you ever even *talk* to younger women? Lots of them have IUDs.
