@elonmuskTN 95 ;-)

@elonmuskADO A driver wearing EarPods doesn’t hear the whistle from the locomotive and gets crushed to death. Hence, he was not alive to compute the answer. He should have been “driving” a Tesla and listening to the built in sound system.

@Puffindor It means that simply by creating an algorithm, and calling it AI, he can use data from non-EU citizens (and American citizens in particular thanks to courts being bamboozled) for whatever he wants, whenever he wants, however he wants! Clear enough?

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor My response would be: "Thank you for demonstrating you are a 6 in 7 American who can't do math. Trump 73.2M votes; Harris 66.8M votes; Dif: 4.4M votes; All independents: 2.2M votes. Trump would still win by 2.2M votes! We made ZERO difference! F*ck Off!"

@Puffindor All we know is there wasn't a complete body in each bag ... a contractor garbage bag can hold up to 110 lbs, and if you can lift two 50 lb lime bags as a gardener, three 70 lb bags (with 1/3 body in each) would be nothing for you ...

@Puffindor Catrobatics all night long trying to open every single closet, cupboard, drawer, and storage bin to find new treats to eat!

@Puffindor It's a re-implementation according to BGG ... I wonder what has changed ... wasn't that memorable of a game back when it came out (like Harbour, it was good, but not great)

@Puffindor @OtterVagrant With creativity, you always have almost twice as much space as you think ;-)

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor @OtterVagrant But you have extra rooms and closets!

@Puffindor 47 years before Outlook was released, the Magic 8-ball got it right:

@Puffindor @OtterVagrant Remember, if you have high ceilings, IKEA Kallaxes stack!

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor @OtterVagrant But in the end, you just buy more shelves ;-)

@Puffindor The reason Procurement thinks Software Licensing needs to be hard is they have to deal with Procurement Damnations 80, 85, 90, and 91 that relate to software: https://t.co/sgUeohjs9k and they don't realize SaaS Management apps (like Zylo) exist.

@Puffindor @jcrichman You forgot fascist!

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor @jcrichman If still alive:
a) declare war & a state of emergency (SOE)
b) sign an executive order "delaying" the election for National Safety & Security until the SOE is over
c) refuse to lift the SOE until the 22nd Amendment is repealed.
Gov moves slow. He'll be dictator for (his) life.

@Puffindor Sad thing is that, as a smaller mid-size enterprise, there are better (& cheaper) systems you could be using that would reduce 90% of the headache ... but based on the Proc. Dept ads I saw, doubt your org. would ever find them :-( 2/2

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor Welcome to Procurement Hell! Home to 95%+ of enterprise employees whose enterprise doesn't use a modern Procurement system with org-wide intake and collaboration (which, FYI, is not found in the 10 client systems that occupy 90% of Gartner's and Forrester's reports) ... 1/2

[Michael Lamoureux @sourcingdoctor]

@Puffindor @TheMarkyX Maybe the country would run better without a President who can do BS executive orders (veto power maybe). After all, Talkeetna did just fine for two decades with Stubbs the Cat as its mayor: https://t.co/jIAE2rRhw6

@Puffindor Facebook Groups ... the boardgamegeek marketplace was mostly dead even before they killed it with the revamp ... I would find a local group, then after a week or so relist in a state group, and then finally the US-side group : https://t.co/M36IkXjaEF
