Excellent! Having water to our houses instead of having to walk to a well or something is such a cool thing but it's only when it goes out that we really realise that.
I know. Have had some outages for a few days. Filled a dozen buckets beforehand for the toilet flush. Another thing that’ll really stuff the country is if the internet ever goes out.
Yeah, even ignoring all the business and infrastructure uses I think we offload a lot of tasks that used to be cognition and memory, onto the internet.
