Or microprocessors!
Only certain microprocessors, there is largely no issue with many common microprocessors. Mostly microprocessor manufacturers that didnt reduce expected output or those that didnt sell off their factories while not having other means. Or unwilling to pay higher costs to buy fab time that was not already allocated.

No politics. I didn't mention either political party or any particular bureaucrat.

We do however keep a strategic oil reserve just for events as this. While oil prices were low during the last 4 years, the strategic oil reserve was filled up, which is smart thinking. ;)
But the problem isn't a shortage of gasoline anywhere. It's an inability to get it there. So in this case, the oil reserve isn't much help. At other times it will be.

You do know what a ketchup packet is right? There is a shortage of ketchup coming in this little aluminum pouch. There is no shortage of ketchup itself, only versions of it put in little pouches. You can buy as much ketchup in a glass bottle, jar, squeeze bottle, box, etc. Not sure what you are getting at. If you go to your neighbor or restaurant, they will likely have ketchup NOT in a ketchup packet, but free to dispense...

Oh an BTW...i was talking about Mickey Ds...they don’t have bottles or squeeze bottles! You do you, not sure why you have so much dislike for me 😂you are still welcome at my place 👍

Same here, headed out to the Grand Tetons NP, RV gets 9 MPG :oops: :oops:
The pipeline affected is on the East coast. Those of us well West of there do not have to worry about this one particular situation. Don't worry there are many more things to worry about coming soon.

Where did you read anything about me disliking you? All I did was clarify there isn't a ketchup shortage, but a pouch dispensed version of it.

Mickey D's has ketchup dispensers, so, yeah, there is that.

You asked me where to get it, I gave you many options, I mean I try to be helpful...

I ate wings literally yesterday from a local restaurant (not to mention purchased some for next week at the grocer), no shortage of chicken wings here that I know of. Potentially regional.

Gas shortage impacting supply or manufactured emergency impacting demand?

If people continued their normal business and stayed on their normal schedule, we would get through this. That is not what occured.

Thanks basement dwelling hackers!

Lucky for me one tank lasts about 3 weeks in my Jeep. That 8 mile round trip commute is a lifesaver! :D

With how much everything's gone to shit over the last few years it really makes me think the Mayans were right and the world was supposed to end in 2012.
