general

You say that spooky, but actually in preperation 50 years from now the entire earlh will be put in a faraday cage or something idk

and we will be saved

Bill Gate's sun blocker doesn't seem so dumb now

futurama global warming solution of pushing the earth farther away from the sun but actually we just do it to stratefically dodge the solar flare

wherever the next solar flare hits, will be interesting if we assume a worst case scenario for the power grid and all electronics, idk how you really come back from that

Maybe it will force the world to stop running on tech that is 50 years old

and actually update things

I'm by no means a grid expert, but the actual architecture of most power grids is fine, everyone just cuts corners to save cost

the issue with power, telecom, networking, etc is cascading failures and feedback loops

I have to assume there are people working on countermeasures because of the cost value

where when something goes down, bringing it up requires more conformity than the overall system allows

You'd think that, but also if it is far enough away, maybe not

there's no real countermeasure imo

if its 50 years from now, the 60 year old guy at the tops not gonna care

the loss of stored data is the one that I think is the most damning

Spooky hear me out

DNA-based storage is the solution technically

reverse solar flare, we make a simulated solar flare and shoot it back

to cancel the incoming one

Alternative, hypermagnets

nah Pika, even simpler

dark energy

problem solved

Energy is the issue (thats whats coming at us)

dark matter wall

Spooky I think you could say enough technical terms to get Trump to sign off on enclosing the earth in a dark matter box

just blow up the sun pre-emptively

we just need to put faraday cages around all critical data centers

and i'll pretend that those work with wires running out of them

OH!

Big rocket, put all data storage on it

they'd need to be the size of the Chernobyl sarcophagus

launch into space

bring back after the flare

if we can forcast solar activity that far in advance then this wouldn't be as big an issue

Sun math hard

I mean, it's not really an issue, it's an inevitability sure but so are a lot of things

I think current understanding and studying the largest known hits, it still is fairly localized, it's not a global thing

in terms of the actual electromagnetic destruction piece

it would be a global disruption, major crisis ofc

gotta keep that in the calculus

YES!

jamocha shake time

did joe biden die?

yeah

dot dot dot

I've learned that Zootopia 2 is going to be full of wheeking guinea pigs

we are doomed

i guess there's enough ECE people now

probably way too many that can only do software

I don't even remember having a dream that I'd @ you about

I read this and thought "this sounds exactly like syren" then I saw that it was syren

I can relate. I've been using a six-year old version of Firefox (because I wanted to use websites that still ran Flash), and they still nuked all my extensions. Didn't know they could disable extensions on old browsers. I ended up buying a liscense (for 99$ AU) for an adblocker that ran (I think at root level) since my computer was so old that none of the free adblockers were available.

I assume it was Adguard that you bought, I actually wish they did a better job marketing themselves

because I think they're WAAAYYY better than PiHole

and people shill piHole an absurd amount, despite it being kinda mid
