So I just lost every server I have based in the general LA area, mostly Burbank, but was perplexed at first as I have 3 redundant connections in place (no cell backup - cause 'muh budgets'). Then I get a call from an office manager there and hear about this shit.
Could be a nothingburger and I'm not trying to get all Qanon retarded here, but it is mighty convenient to knock out power and internet at the very center of the hellspawned perverts that run that shit people call "entertainment".
America is a big place. Something is always going down. Q is a faggot larp for faggot people.

Guess I could not be a faggot and actually post a link. No, I'm not archiving this right now because it's causing me a lot of work at the moment. My apologies anons.
Wow, this is the first time you've posted without showing us a picture of your ugly bloated face. You feeling alright, fag?

Well, you see, I've been in IT for a long time now (nearing 15yr) and most of the time when power outages happen the battery backups take care of it and the connection persists. Not just the office backups mind you, the ISPs have batteries on their hardware too. Trust me, I've made it almost 4 days after natural disasters on these batteries.
This didn't just knock out power. Qanon are retarded, yes, but this is unusually from my professional perspective.

Gotta love that thick, black mineral oil smoke. That's gonna be an all nighter.

The darkness has been going on a very long time, and nothing Q is doing will help stop it.
Wait, most businesses in LA don't have backup generators at this point in time? We did back in 2000ish during the rolling blackouts then. It does happen naturally. I'm in FL though where nature cannot exist along with an electrical grid. I worked with a guy who had an out of the blue lightning strike that melted his box on the utility pole outside and fried a lot of his inside shit.

why was there a ball of fire? How does a sub station produce fire? Whats there to burn?

Haha Burbank sucks!

oil from the transformer used to cool the coils from the high voltage

Can't delete the kiddie porn if you don't have power.
We do, but that's what I'm saying, this didn't just knock out power. I killed two fiber circuits (two different ISPs) and a coax backup at the same time as power. I've had many a power outage, this knocked everything out at the same time.
The t-mobile datacenter in bothell has a room full of battery racks and two giant fucking generators. they are designed to stay running while everyone else is down.

They are probably destroying some important areas before the upcoming cosmic event

Still recoverable and that isn't deleting, nigger.
Nope, no collocation. Other than sites hosted on AWS, shit is all on location. Plenty of hardware in place to handle power issues (this is LA we're talking about after all). I'm thinking if anything it fried the POPs around us. Although with something of this scale you could be right and my hardware is toast. Looks like my weekend is fucked if so.

Kid, do you know what substations do? Do you know why an explosion would send a surge up a grid? Ok good.
Now the next question is, do you fully assume that your failover is fully airgapped from the public power grid?
No? Then you just had a power surge that friend all your fancy words for servers.
Blake Hall
I saw a Twitter vid of a girl two blocks away from the substantion literally hearing the surge go through the power lines next to her house.
>No? Then you just had a power surge that friend all your fancy words for servers. > you just had a power surge >that friend all your fancy words >that friend
I'm going to be writing a very strongly worded letter to APC on Monday morning if that 500v UPS didn't do it's job.

I don’t know about you all... but because of Corona this is the first time since college that I’ve felt alive. I have lots of silver and been waiting for something like this to happen for 5 years. The point where things get so bad that 1 silver Roosevelt dime will buy me a blowjob from a formerly well to do housewife and her 18 year old daughter at the same time. I’ve been waiting in the shadows laughing at these cuck husbands who buy their wives range rovers instead of buying silver bullion... knowing that I’ll be face fucking their wives mouths for the 1.30$ it cost me to buy that silver dime.
Just yesterday at Whole Foods I seamlessly entered into conversation about Corona with a roastie milf that had a ring on her finger in the water aisle... and I said this is all a cover for trump to bring us back on a gold standard. She started looking at me in amazement like she wanted me to paint her lips in cum. At the end of the conversation I’m like take my number l have plenty of protection and freeze dried food if you ever need it and she took it from me.

South LA user (Santa Ana, Irvine). All systems up here...for now. Will monitor and report with any issues. US Critical Infrastructure is RETARDEDLY vulnerable One asshole with a silenced subsonic long gun can drive around this country and cripple our telecom and power grid infrastructure
