Generation Jones explains their major cultural differences with Boomers
I'm in the middle of a mountain valley in #Spain, fully off grid with satellite internet. I have a SIM router too, but on Monday the mobile network went down and it hasn't come back on where I am.
My #solar and battery systems were unaffected, as was my satellite internet so the impact on me of the #blackout yesterday was minimal.
I have always liked the idea of #microgeneration with all buildings or communities producing their own power.
Huge interconnected grids are a #securityrisk
This has me so torn. On its pure functionality I absolutely love it, very much the sort of idea (local micro generation) I think we need to be embracing... but as a fire safety engineer/researcher, the "just leave it up to the consumer to do all the wiring, connecting and assesment of their home circuits" feels like it is asking for trouble (and lots of ignitions).
