48 hours of no tictoc access would create chaos never before seen
People without Netflix or social media will absolutely lose their minds, hope you got some offline games and books
Got lots of good books I've finally come around to reading. It can shut down for a year for all I care.
It will be interesting to see women, especially zoomer thots, go mad.
Holy shit, I genuinely don't know how they'd react to not getting constant attention. Would they go all out and do insane shit in the streets to get looked at, or would they break and go completely the other way and go full trad?
> offline games
no... how about real life? video games/internet destroyed young men, especially those in first world nations. it's a slow-burn addiction because it allows you to live vicariously through games instead of doing things in real life.
That's the world we live in now, people complain about the internet while using the internet constantly. A lot of things have moved online too so if you don't use it you will be left behind, it's set up that way.
Games are great when your life is shit, it's increasingly hard to bootstrap yourself in today's world, so I don't fault anyone trying to entertain themselves to escape the torment.
Games have always existed, video games are fine in moderation the same way board, card and dice games are
>video games/internet destroyed young men
No. You're not welcome here, stupid c**t.
Society destroyed young men, games just gave them an escape that isn't mass genocide.
>gambling
>drinking
>wanton violence
It's not video-games, it all comes back to self-control not being taught.
All of my games are offline
>hope you got some offline games and books
Do people really not own books and a pack of playing cards?
People are losing their minds from those things. I remember life without them and people were better off without the junk. God would be doing the world a favor by turning off the internet.
God would be doing everyone a favor if the power went out without warning to anyone, making rich and poor stuck in the same boat with the same odds of making it out, especially if the blackout lasts years.
But he wont. God doesnt like things changing that way, he clearly enjoys the rich feeding on the poor.
The betters will always exploit the lessers
It’s just a mimicking of the natural order. The predators eat their prey alive, we’ve only made it more efficient.
People wasted their lives online before netflix and social media, just a reminder.
Yup.
This is the plan for when they lose control of an AI.
Then blame it on the sun.
>People without Netflix or social media will absolutely lose their minds.
Unironically this. The only reason we haven't had a french revolution 2.0 is cause we live in comfy times with comfy sedations and distractions. Take that all away with no electricity?
It will be mad max mode within less then a week.
Solar stroms actually might be the trump card we need to derail current clown world.
I have at least a 1tb of games, tons of physical discs and consoles and I got books, pdfs. My body is ready
Aside from the solar, food and water preps, I've made some additions for offline entertainment, yes. With that said, my siblings never lost their appreciation for the outdoors and exercise thanks to our parents.
I'm more concerned about people that are addicted to gambling and can't get their fix.
Gambling is one of the strangest addictions to me. If I lose $5 at a bar VLT I immediately want to stop and if I win anything I also immediately want to stop.
Same here. Gambling makes me feel awful, during the bet I feel stressed, if I lose I feel like shit, and if I win I feel like it's a mistake and going to get taken away from me. I can't relate to gambling addicts at all.
have the same feeling about it. it intrigued me so much I tried roulette (betting on color and if I loose, double the amount)....won bunch of money and then lost all of it, it was exciting at first, then I felt awfully stupid about it. never again..but I guess it has appeal to some.
Im a gambling addict
Diablo 3 on hardcore is a surprisingly adequate source
Considering they've cancel'd the lockdowns after realizing that people are dropping out of the npc algorithmus at alarming rates, I not so sure that would be bad thing. You would absolutely want to lock and baricade your doors and windows by all means necessary though.
yeah the first few weeks would be barbaric.
this is why we prep
this is why we train
how many people will die when they can't refill their prescriptions?
>this is why we prep
>this is why we train
You do understand that a considerable amount of people isn't even familar with the areas in the immediate vicinity of their homes? The vast, vast majority of people have never voluntarily spent time in a forest. Most probably don't even know more than the ways from their homes to the shops and their workplace.
You need to hike at most an hours away and onto a mountain to be safe from 80% of the fallout. Most will just run from one crowded and jammed up city to the next.
Those same people would be NPC all the way through and would be so helpess that they'd be no threat. They'd sit and wait for gub'ment to come and save them, thinking they'd get in trouble if they did anything themselves.
>You need to hike at most an hours away and onto a mountain to be safe from 80% of the fallout
if you are aware of this shit and btfo as soon as the lights go out you might still make it by car
once everyone gets on the highway, it's over
all it takes is one big accident and the whole thing gets jammed forever, which shouldn't take less than a few hours after the panic settled
That's exactly why I either wouldn't use any vehicle bigger than a quadbike and only use routes around mountainsides and forests. All things considered you may be better off just literally hiking by foot.
girls would clean their act up overnight
yeah imagine all the NPCs not getting their 1 second dopamine rushes via the never ending scroll cycle. They would go through withdrawals.
they've been prepping the public for internet shutdown
there will be no internet during the 2024 election and all election results will come from the fake gay TV news israelites
when the internet returns the following year, it will be heavily monitored and censored, and will require a global digital ID to access and you will be criminally charged for "hate speech" and "misinformation" violations
This would unironically fix society. Normal people wouldn't use the internet any more, it would be a place for cucks only so the rest of us can go back to what life was like pre-millennium.
Yea it would. And it would provide the perfect cover for TND & TJD
agreed
at first people would go through classic withdraw symptoms like junkies do.
But then we would heal and recover.
We would lose some people, but the rest of us would be happier and find peace.
Total mobile internet death.
Just imagine how much better people's mental health would be without constantly being bombarded with artificial but ultimately irrelevant negativity, and forced dopamine hits. It's impossible to be dragged down by doom and gloom if you can't see it, because it doesn't exist outside their front door.
yes, our dopamine receptors would return to normal.
Relationships would improve
women e-thots would be gone.
No more instant gratification or keeping up with the Jones'.
Kids would play outside again.
Time would slow down again.
It feels like time is sped up with the internet.
Imagine the poor trannies and Jannies. How would they cope?
Nice noggles
If we have another carrington event,
there wont be "internet next year"
You do realize it will fry every single electronic device on earth?
Will take the earth prob 100 years to recover if at all.
the blackout will be blamed on a solar flare, but there will either have been no such event, or it will have been very minor
it's a cover story for part of the great reset
oh yes
Solar flares do happen, I'm not sure why some of you idiots think it can't happen.
That's why they are letting the public play with AI generating technology, pol explains (last clip):
WILL THE Black personING CEASE?
Oh god yes.
>he doesn't follow empdoctor
https://www.youtube.com/@disasterprepper
2 more years bros!
OK BUT WILL MY VIDYA GAME SAVE FILES BE OK?????????
NVM I GOT AN ANSWER. I DONT CARE ABOUT THIS ANYMORE
It's a completely different mechanism of action, a solar flare electrifies all components, what this means is that electronics not designed to take higher current (fragile shit like computer chips especially) will be completely fried, we will probably end up back at the tech level of the 1980s outside of big corporate Black folk who put their shit underground
delusional doomposting. The wires in PCs aren't long enough, are shielded by the metal in the case (rip plastic case Black folk)
Whoever made you think this will only happen to wires is the delusional one, the static will carry along the circuits themselves, any fragile circuitry is toast
You know a CME fries basically everything with a copper wire, right?
>they've accounted for CME's!
No they havent, they can't, best thing they can do is add some faraday shielding, which unironically wouldnt work in most cases given that the wireless connection wouldnt be able to pierce the cage, in the rare cases they do it'll still end up useless since routers and towers will burn out.
this is why such the push to get rid of analogue TV sets back in 2012(?)(2013?)
And flourescent bulbs.
>your home breakers will pop
LMAO 0% chance they do
>surge protectors will work
High quality ones *should* work, but many people say they won't matter because the spike is too fast. The whole house lightning surge protectors *might* work.
unless your pc is hooked into the grid when it happens
ICs have such a small surface area they are unlikely to get directly fried unless it is a high altitude EMP (not a solar flare)
Moron, it won't matter if electronics are plugged into the grid or not, they have the same odds of being fried.
No, charge only gathers on the power grid due to the very long copper wires. If you have devices very close to power grid wires but not plugged in, it could still damage them. You shouldn't even need a faraday cage, though it's so easy to make them with foil might as well.
Have you wrapped your head in foil yet?
Sounds based. Finally I can stop caring about moronic social media marketing
I fricking hope so. And with it all other electricity.
A EMP would probably be the best thing that could ever happen.
Agreed
Nothing good comes from tech lets be honest
The Internet is dying on its own. All of that Utopian nonsense has amounted to 80% porn, 10% shopping, 5% braindead entertainment, 5% arguing about the daily news.
Where are the centers of higher learning and enlightenment? You don't need the Internet to download glorified HTML files of books. And you still have to read the books, which most people literally can't thanks to the public school systems. The best minds still email one another directly, if they communicate at all.
Anyone can quickly and easily make a website but even that's too much effort for them.
The Internet is a failed experiment.
>80% porn
And that's a problem how?!?!?!?!
>he doesn't know that Israel uses porn as a weapon against its Muslim neighbors
First day anon?
>What is libgen
You are a globoBlack person, you chose this, you could have left it up, but no, you chose war
I love libgen, I am saying we don't need "The Internet" to index and download 200kb text files. It's not like we have to have porn and Tiktok in order to subsidize the books. And instant access to books isn't making people smarter, in fact they are getting dumber, there's no correlation.
Peace on Earth, good will toward men. Transhumanist nonsense. But really, people thought it was going to enable humanity to escape reality, to become more, to get rid of our social ills. The same way they now talk about AI.
All we really have is digital versions of things that already exist. For nearly a century we have had shopping catalogs, taxis, food delivery, maps, encyclopedias, movies, music, talk radio, newspapers, telephones, telegrams, go on and on. What about the Internet is truly NEW and not simply convenient, saving on space, weight, or time to access?
>All of that Utopian nonsense
I mean, what did people think it was going ti be used for?
As with all failed social experiments, it died because the average IQ wasn’t high enough. Sad!
welp time to set up my offline games and my massive collection of offline viewing
I hope so. The internet was a mistake.
I fricking wish some solar storm fries all the computers.
I’m finishing my aerospace engineering degree and those Polish professor fricks demand to (on top of modern techniques like CAD, CFD, etc.) be able to do everything, I mean literally everything in a ‘traditional’ way, pen/pencil and paper. I had to draw whole fricking assembly and structural drawings of aircraft by hand, after designing one entirely by hand, with manual calculations, while at the same time doing it ‘in a modern way’ in parallel (which obviously took 1/20 of the time or less). I had to do fricking finite element method analysis by hand, despite having a whole dedicated course where I’ve done it with Ansys.
I’ve talked to exchange students and nowhere else (at least in Europe) does anyone do this shit. Nobody teaches the ‘by hand’ engineering anymore.
If a storm hits it’ll probably be me and other guys I study with along with some geriatric 80 year olds who’ll be able to build aircraft without computers.
You got a thorough education. That is a good thing.
On one hand - yes. Not just 1 in a million sceneries where computers go down but it does genuinely help to get better understanding of many things, not just using a tool someone else made without fully understanding it and (with enough time and resources) - being theoretically able to replicate it. I’m tired af (haven’t slept for like 40 hrs) so my explanation can be a bit janky but my point is, in many industries, there exists a sort of standing on the shoulders of giants phenomenon, where many people use already existing tools (often built over many decades) without really knowing what ‘goes under the hood’ and if such tool ever was lost, they themselves couldn’t made another one like it. By analogy, they are like normies driving cars - they can do it (although usually poorly) but they don’t know how the car works, many not even in the most basic form (and that’s the main reason why most of them can’t drive properly and damage/wear out things prematurely so often). Normie could spend 2 hours a day for most of their life in a car yet not understand it, let alone build even the simplest one.
If shit goes down, we might be going back to the Stone Age in many aspects from the looks of it.
+hand drawings/blueprints of aircraft look kino af, there’s some kind of aesthetic to it idk, I guess it’s the same as a photograph vs a good painting (frick modern art btw)
I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your posts
babby complains about better education than rest of Europe
You are a fully educated engineer that doesn't need modern shit to finish projects. You are a gem for that alone.
>if Greenland (movie) or similar happens you will get invited to a DUMB
You fricking moron you are educated better than basically all westerners who learned the same shit you did. The soviet legacy lives on in your education system, honestly I really believe slavs have one of the best ones in the world
it's been great frens, see you on the other side
The moment that the internet goes down is not so worrisome.
I am far more worried about it being restored and rebuilt with mandatory digital ID access and arbitrary social credit systems concocted by viscid monsters with a human domestication fetish.
When the spinning ball-Earth is finally exposed worldwide for the 400+ year deception it was, Earth's entire population will suddenly be faced with the reality that every government, every space agency, university, secret society, religious organization, mainstream and alternative media outlet have ALL been duplicitous in propping up a monstrous manipulation to fleece and control the masses. The resulting mass mental exodus away from the control system is exactly what humanity needs. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these lying politicians, spokesmen, reporters and teachers suddenly change from being heralded voices of authority to being ridiculed, shunned and denounced as they deserve. Once the flat Earth truth gets out, these governments, universities, media outlets and other entangled organizations which have long been hard at work weaving this multi-generational ball-Earth myth, suddenly and completely lose all credibility. Once the truth of our flat Earth gets out, so does the truth of these few elite families/societies who have kept this most important and fundamental reality from us for these hundreds of years! Essentially, once the flat Earth truth gets out, so does every other important truth by proxy, because this "mother-of-all-conspiracies" holds under its umbrella literally ALL of the other conspiracies, and exposes them.
Earth is concave
The sun is not between the clouds though, they are very close to ground level, some of them are just too flimsy so the sunlight pushes through it easily and gives this illusion. The sun is much higher than the clouds within the firmament.
Solarflares are euphemisms for flipping a handful of switches in datacenters and power stations around the world to plunge "civilization" into chaos and selling them a solution.
No. Such topics might be used as the excuse for disabling various sites and services, a flare type event simply ain't gonna happen.
>internet apocalypse
and nothing of value was lost
>2 more years
also, how do you like my illuminati troony windows?
Nothing happened in 2014
Not entirely true, roughly around 2012 a massive CME missed us by only a few galactic miles. If it would've hit us, we still wouldnt be on the up and ups.
>OP including an archived link
notice that slide threads will never do this. bump
this is such a stupid meme its not even funny, but here again they are counting on the ignorance of NPCs to believe an obviously false line
Lmao you're moronic, stop drinking moron juice, moron
Solar flares are absolutely real and the odds of one happening that's powerful enough to wipe our modern way of life grows with every solar cycle
you stupid frick a solar flare isnt going to ONLY take out the internet
Ofc not, it's going to take out everything electric. I don't know why the article only focuses on the internet.
A solar flare will indiscriminately destroy electric devices
>I don't know why the article only focuses on the internet.
Because its fake and gay and they are prepping NPCs for them taking down the internet and NPCs will be too stupid to go to their hosts file for a backup.
>Ofc not, it's going to take out everything electric.
its gonna have to be strong enough to arc the surface otherwise fake & gay
That would be cool
>That would be cool
while it would truly be an awe inducing thing, it would also be terrible and incredibly destructive
>its gonna have to be strong enough to arc the surface
what the frick are you even talking about?
that's not how Solar flares work or how they impact the grid
>what the frick are you even talking about
sit down and shut up, people exponentially more intelligent than you are having a conversation
Definitely, last Carrington event took out the telegraph in the 1850s. The next one will definitely cause societal collapse. Everything electric will be affected.
lord god do we need one
If they shut down the internet it'll motivate people to go out and hunt.
as someone who has been watching space weather and studying Solar physics and geoscience for over a decade, people's state of knowledge and capacity to be misled in these topics is pretty ridiculous
100%
t. got started in 1998ish
then you must be even more tired of clickbait titles and swindling charlatans like Ben Davidson than I am, I guess
what is this israeli pilpul
lmao
this is the same person
I give up, when the person who claims to have been watching space weather for 25 years says something this stupid I'm not even going to bother with this thread
yikes
thanks for confirming the above
someone who has supposedly watched space weather for 25 years still gobbles up braindead bullshit like that of swindling charlatans like Ben, yeah right
either you're lying or you're exceptionally stupid
yeah, except you're saying moronic nonsense which isn't even remotely how space weather works at all
too bad your stupidity is only transparent to people like me, who actually knows their shit
anyway, closing this tab now, enjoy replying into empty air like a total moron
and enjoy being delusional and having zero idea what you're talking about
good riddance
bye homosexual get the frick out of this thread
I mean really, calling Ben a grifter and trashing him. Getting thrown out of Gavin Schmidt's grad classes is a badge of honor you hooknosed bastard. Ben is a million times more honest than the black box crew that mangles their data so that it supports an unscientific conclusion.
I hope so
So that I will no longer have to report to my dead end wagie job lol
So it would disable globohomosexual brainwashing network? Maybe the sun isnt so bad after all
Good. I'm tired of (you)
>feds
>larpers
>moronic libtard fricks
>redditors
>AY, TONE. HOWS COME THERE NO TREADS ABOUT ALL THAT SMOKE COMIN' DOWN HERE MAMKING EVERYTIN SMELL LIKE A CHEMICAL PLANT
Goodness gracious how horrifying.
Also wouldn't this fry all unprotected electronics on earth?
Unironically might be my only way out from internet addiction.
p.s. the sun does NOT APPRECIATE HATE SPEECH!
This happened in my city. It's the northern lights but skip to 28 seconds. WT ACTUAL F
What state is this? That's fricking beautiful.
Alaska.
Lucky you.
ALASKA IS AMAZING IT'S COLD AND DARK
oh but when its nice, there's nothing nicer
White people are made for that weather. They don't like fed Black folk. Strong 2nd amendment laws. Beautiful sceneries and outdoors. Plenty of hunting. Hydric resources. Alaska will survive the upcoming destruction.
>Alaska will survive the upcoming destruction.
Southeast Alaska would get btfo by tidal shit tho, it has some of the highest tides on the planet
It's so hot out now I'm only hiking at night.
devil's club is some painful shit
that does seem a bit fricky.
you can tell where the mountains are below 4000', as their tops are ground down from the last ice age
The way this video keeps slowly panning around and twisting makes me think this is a cutscene from a video game or something
They have been saying this is going to knock out the internet for over a decade. Posters in this thread are buying into it too.
>it will totally happen this time guys, just watch!
Hardly. I've studied blackouts and CME's for about 11 years now, and things only get interesting after like a week or so, if the internet goes out for a day or two, nothing will happen.
People will continue to pay taxes while their country is on fire, others will continue to wait in line while the store is looted.
People are cattle, anon. More than 50% of any given countries populace will accept any and all measures, covid proved this.
>Be cattle
>No power or internet
>government sends a car with a speaker to tell people to chill out.
>chill out.
After a day or two it'll be
>no power or internet
>same car drives by, tells people to hold on and share resources
>people hold on and share resources.
oh no, no internet
better go to the pub then
Do you have enough cash on hand? Does the pub have enough beer on hand until the internet comes back? Does the warehouse have the papers with all the orders the pub needs on a weekly ratio?
Do the breweries have their systems running and know how much beer goes where?
Do the warehouses supplying the brewery with malt?
Does the farmer even get up in the morning now that his mobile phone can't wake him up?
dont know, dont care
your round
When?
I've been preparing for this
How?
Just downloading shit. Normal internet may be gone forever some day and then you can only come online by the computer scanning your tattoo
Its not just our sun we have to worry about.
The resulting radiation from the supernova will turn half of the survivors into X-Men mutants
Isn't Beltegeuse really, really extremely far away though? I'm more worried about the radiation coming from the Sun (combined with a weakened magnetic field here) and possibly the atomic power plants - if their security systems suddenly stopped working...
Sirius is the biggest risk. As far as stars are concerned. Two stars closely rotating means possible super nova. We would slowly see it fill our day/night sky for like 50 years and then be wiped out.
>internet apocalypse
Black person, all electricity will be gone. try living without energy for even one day.
we did live without electricity before right? too much dependency will frick us?
just wait until the poles shift.
This is where the equator will be
can't wait to have palm trees all over the place
brazilBlack folk get fricked
sweet
europe remains prime real estate
>Solar flare will knock out the internet
No it fricking won't. They're just announcing they'll shut down the internet. Taking down comms means only one thing: they're preparing something huge. Make sure you organize a local, fed free, militia, before that.
The based solar storm chad vs the virgin electric israelite.
