Spoilers... Disney-Pixar made a whole series of films on this scientific fact.
@SirEviscerate They mean power, not electricity. Literally power: Without ice cream hero they can no longer fight! Forget a stopped computer: think about the empty freezer with no ice to survive through the day!
Can you tell that I want ice cream right now? π
@SirEviscerate lol @ketan clearly South Australia needs to build out more redundant ice cream truck infrastructure before the next storms hit...
Ice cream is renewable, right?
Oh come on. Don't be such a baby. Everyone learns in grade school: ice cream trucks leave the positive pole and drive ice creams to the negative pole. The creams keep computers running and the lights on.
(Though this is just a metaphor, study physics you will know the trucks, in fact, drive in the opposite direction, backing up the whole time. )
Of course, everyone tries to resist eating ice cream. This is what gives us Yum's Law of resistance and currants (like raisins.)
@PariMoonForest @SirEviscerate now hold on a second, the writer didn't say "... *because* a tree falls on an ice cream truck", merely "after" tree falls...
so, allowed, on a technicality?
@PariMoonForest @SirEviscerate yes, for normal humans, the implication is also "because of", but if we were lawyers we could argue that it *is* true that the power went out "after" the ice cream truck was crushed!
But fine, journalists aren't lawyers, so you win! :)
