I’ve had 6 different notifications from Ring in the pass 16 minutes of people asking when their power is gonna turn on. I live in a Suburban area and nothing is remotely “rural”. Having lived in the East Coast, dealing with hurricanes, no power/running water, all while being snowed in, the rains and wind rn in the Bay Area is nothing compared to what was considered “normal” in the east coast. People out here can’t go 30mins without complaining on having no power. Idk what would happen if Wi-Fi was down for 4 days (longest ive been without power) It blows my mind.

However, in older people, the novelty of a new environment doesn’t boost memory as much as it does in younger people. by Wagamaga

I tried this and never got into it. I would much rather walk through a Forrest than go looking for a box in X area. But I think that “drug” is essentially the same.
