Massive blackout in Argentina and Uruguay
Electrical failure cuts power to all of Argentina and Uruguay, supplier says - BBC News
Parts of Brazil and Paraguay too. ~50M people without power. |
Neat. I remember our big fancy blackout whatever year it was. 2 days without power I think? It was p sweet. An interesting summer break. Bars were blowing out beer and ice cream basically free.

the big northeast coast one in 2003? ya that was fun south of bloor had power back within like 7 hrs, and most of t.o. by the next morning - but the 'burbs were slow to restore iirc the whole thing was caused because even tho some tech spotted the problem before it happened, they forgot to restart the monitoring software and that's what caused everything to fail |

"Everything came to a halt. Elevators, water pumps, everything. We were left adrift," Juan Borges, who lives in Buenos Aires, told the BBC.
Wow Scary stuff for a whole country to go black. Sounds like they're too centralized relying on a single dam for power. |
