Spain had a total power grid blackout last year. As in, no electric power at all for mortals who aren't as cool as Arelor. The country went into a comma because the population is stupid. Everybody is used to credit cards and digital payment processors and nobody but Arelor and other Arelor-like psychos had cash, therefore normal people could not buy a thing, including basics such as groceries. Many access control devices (such as doors) are remotely controlled. On normal operation, you have a security firm monitor the entrance remotely with a camera and they open and close their doors using the Internet. When the lights went out a lot of people got trapped inside offices because they didn't know how to open the door from inside using the manual override. My friends wasted their day. One outright said he laid on the bed for the whole day because he had nothing to do with his life without Internet access. Meanwhile Arelor laughted in prepper because the services at $job were designed to work in isolation without requiring Internet access (ie. no cloud crap required) and there were batteries to last the day. Arelor could buy a loaf of bread because he didn't depend on cloud-enabled TPVs and credit cards, then drove home and cooked something from his prepper food reserves. Therefore Arelor had a very good day precisely because he is the sort of paranoid everybody mooks. -- gopher://gopher.richardfalken.com/1/richardfalken n --- gSynchronetn Palantir BBS * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL ----------------------------------------------------------- [Voltar]
