THe hackers got paid. I suspect we will see a lot of mayhem over the next year or so until these companies dig in deep and fix their shit. You really believe there was a hack? Lol |

Prepare. New Yorkers generally took it remarkably well, I remember. They were sitting relaxedly outside drinking coffee or beer, while chatting, and the splendid evening Sun was slowly disappearing behind the horizon (well, the skyline actually). |

That city is going to be hell... especially as all those people are going to be forcibly weaned from gambling as nothing will be working..... lol But then again, a Las Vegas without power may just be what everyone secretly, deep in their soul, was yearning for..... as, perhaps, hell is Vegas WITH power.... |

FPL generates a massive excess of electricity that they sell to neighboring states. All nuclear and solar power. We also have the lowest energy rates in the country (~9.5-10.5 cents per KWh) My 2400 sq. ft. home, keeping the AC set at 70 degrees, cost me ~ $135-$145 per month. I can't speak for the other states you mentioned, by Florida won't have a problem. |

The ONLY way to get the people on board for the Great Reset is to tear down the current system. Little by little at first, and then when the people can't take much more, they will throw the switch and bring us to our knees. It will be the only way to get Americans on board and it is at that moment, we all FIGHT! |

They want us nice and softened up so they can just take more control. First with the fires that made people grateful just to survive. Now they’re shutting the power off when it gets extremely cold or hot. Welcome to life in the third world! IDGAF |
