They have about 10 years worth of content, I'll think you'll be fine. Honestly, any business that makes its money online digitally is probably going to be one of the area least effected by all of this.

As long as they've got the capacity to handle the bandwidth usage spikes they're all going to be seeing.

Honestly hasn't been very cold in Canada this year, at least not anymore in my part.

My area just got it's first case today. But they're not even testing people so who knows how many really have it here. I'm hoping to not have to work for awhile.

That’s why physical media is still king!

Until you have to touch something that has the coronavirus.

I guess the one good thing about this is all the unlimited bandwidth people are getting. It's basically forcing them to admit data caps are bull****.

I have years worth of DVDs and books already in my house....so I'm fine.

We freeze our bread all the time. We don't eat enough of it to leave out all time. Got a loaf chillin out as we speak.

I freeze mine too and if I feel it’s about to go bad then it’s bread pudding time!

So Trump today’s press conference touting a new website designed by Google to help people get tested.

Something like that would be the only thing that would force them to tear down the current system and rebuild.

Hopefully we don't get anywhere near the worse case scenario

It's scary, but the article itself points out various mitigating reasons why we hopefully won't.

 

[Lilbaz]

Even if with the best case scenario we're in for a tough few months (if not longer). What happens to the underinsured and uninsured? 20% of cases require hospitalisation. Do you just send them home To self isolate? What about the undocumented?

In a country of 400 million guns this could turn real ugly.

I know Canada doesn’t have as many cases as most places, but my anxiety has been getting worse. The country went from 100 cases to almost 200 in three days.
