  1. Gary, Indiana residents must wait until Tuesday for power, 9 days after storm knocked it out

    Nine days after the storm that was to blame for it all, tens of thousands of people yet again woke up without power in Northwest Indiana on Thursday. In Gary, NIPSCO said the power won't be back on until next week. Things really came to a boiling point for some people in Gary in the last 24 hours after NIPSCO released estimated power restoration times for different areas across Northwest Indiana, but initially left Gary off the list. The latest update on the NIPSCO website as of Thursday […]

  3. First brief power flutter. They must be working on it.

  4. I’ve got this Belkin power bank with an emergency light that’s supposed to turn on whenever there’s a power outage.

    Not once has it ever come on when the power is out.

    Today I figured out why: it is plugged into my UPS. #PowerFailure

  5. Hopefully they’re not too off base with their repair estimate. (They usually are.)

    So far, so good. It’s a pleasant 21° outside, with a bit of a breeze. We’ve opened all the windows and doors and it’s cooling down nicely inside. 1849 customers affected. #PowerFailure

  6. Saturday surprises, but everything worked as expected. Moments later system was safely shutdown without data corruption.

  7. We lost electricity (for 2 minutes). I'm lucky to live in an area where blackouts are rare. I think the last one I experienced that was longer than 1/2 hour was like 20 years ago for me personally?

  8. Anyone need a temperature/power sensor that can place a call over a landline? I used to use this to keep track of power failures in my lab but have other methods now. This is a Temperature Guard Home Guard VM500-2 #free #sensor #telephone #landline #powerfailure

  9. Nothing like a 10-second power failure to reset expectations on opened tabs you'll read later, documents opened days ago you planned on finishing editing "soon", and projects half-built you keep telling yourself you'll debug as soon as you have a spare minute. #PowerFailure #BCHydroPowerOutage

  10. @humanhorseshoes @RTENewsHeadlinesRSS
    A small and cheap #inverter for the car does the trick, it converts 12 Volt from a car to mains voltage (230 V and 50Hz).

    These start at 100€.

  11. @G4Media "The Fundeni Clinical Institute faced, on Tuesday, a power failure, critical areas being powered by generators. unit was refueled, and the supplier's intervention teams trying to restore power to the entire area."

    This is the catastrophic outcome of letting corrupt fucking assholes ruin Romania. Every single function in this country is rotten to the core. Few people in positions of power are actually competent and can try to change stuff for the better.

    This is how Romania has ended up, in the year of our lord 2024, in the fucking EU. We're out here acting like we're some third-world country, not the modern, smart country we're SUPPOSED to be.

  12. दिल्ली में पानी संकट के बीच बिजली सप्लाई भी बाधित, गर्मी बढ़ने से बिजली की मांग बढ़ी।

  13. Had a power cur about 1.5 hours ago and it's taken me until now to get the nas back up 😢

    ZFS had a real issue this time causing truenas to have issues restarting.

    Turned out the main pool wouldn't come back online until I manually cleared errors then it reappeared.

    I'm now having to do a scrub on a 24 disk array to see if that will fix the remaining issues

  14. Power has been out for about 3 hours. LOVE our woodstove. It's 77⁰ in the living room. Candles, lantern and a good glass of wine 🍷. We're badass Alaska survivors 😁. #Alaska #Anchorage #BearValley #PowerFailure #Winter

  15. Nice. The "security" lights in our apartment complex are out. It feels nice & non-stressful to be out on my lanai at night for a change.

  16. What a morning. TIL: cat vomit can and will trip your RCD circuit breaker.
    Of course this happened on the day I switched to a solar+wind plan from my power company so I spent much of the morning trying to get in touch with them to figure out what “they’d” done wrong.. 😂 #PowerFailure #Cats

  17. Glad I finally bought a UPS. Too bad I forgot to plug the computer in.🔌

    😂 🤦
