Yeah but the power going out is what is supposed to happen. Its a good thing. It means the fault was cleared and the area made safe. The issue with one of these events is were not currently protecting against it in a lot of places. So real bad things have the potential of happening WITHOUT the power going out. No breakers tripping (or not tripping fast enough) means more equipment damage. It currently takes over a year to build a HV transformer, and that's with power. What happens when 500 all explode at the same time (cause the power didn't go out fast enough) and we need to replace them all at once? Without power?

That essential list seems a bit weird to me. Are people really eating that much bacon? And no veg?

Wait. The singular of cattle is cattle? I think that's the part that confuses me. Or is there no singular and you must use cow/bull? Either way I've never really thought about it and now I can't not

I think there's an argument to be .ade for it being a positive feedback loop

So there isn't anything spooky going on there it's just that viewing particles involves bouncing photons which of course impacts the particles you're viewing. Measuring is changing. It's like if in order to measure mass you had to burn a thing (kind of like how we measure calories), in that case measuring it changes it. Nothing spooky, just an inherently destructive measurement process

Not OP but Baconreader had ads but they were small, obvious, and always in the same place. So I left them there cause I figured gotta fund the thing somehow
