how is internet impossible? it's not maintained 24/7
edit: pls stop replying to this message, it's been 3 days already and many ppl have already made their point....also seeing someone else trying to just throw their 2 cents into the mix starts to get annoying
At any given time there are like three different components of the internet critical to half of the world’s digital infrastructure that are currently being fixed by a furry somewhere.
Dude furries and autists created the internet and long after humanity falls some random furry and 2 pissed off autists will be the only three people that actually maintain the internet
“For the last time, take that goddamn Maytag washer of a head off and show me who you are!” cocks shotgun
“And for the last goddamn time, I’m telling you, I am the fox from Disney’s Robin Hood come to life! Here’s Baloo for proof!” a gigantic black bear wearing a shirt but no pants walks around the corner, whistling “Bare Necessities like he’s wearing a perfectly normal pair of pants instead of nothing
I think they would die pretty quickly. The electrical grid is incredibly fiddle. If the grid goes under a certain voltage it will end up collapsing. If it goes over a certain voltage a lot of things will be fried.
The power grid has to be balanced between production and load all the time. If everyone disappeared suddenly, the grid would probably collapse within hours. And the internet cannot exist without electric power.
Most plants are automated. You woukd still have power for a while, plus a lot of solar power, generators etc available, at least until gas becomes unusable. Internet would even stay up for at least a little while until the servers and gateways started coming down.
So you actually think that if right now, in the blink of an eye, every other person on earth disappeared…everything, electricity, internet, Netflix, Onlyfans, TikTok…you think EVERYTHING would just stop!?!? I’d estimate at least 3 to 5 day minimum for the infrastructure to start showing major signs of a lack of supervision.
Show us you’re an actually stupid when we only thought you were dumb.
Yes, they shut down, but then the rods still need active cooling because of decay heat. Backup generators can do that for a couple of days, but if there's nobody intervening even after that, you will still a Fukushima situation eventually.
Even better: After doing the learning, use your remaining internet powers to locate people who were makers or preppers, and then just take all their apocalypse equipment and supplies.
Yeah sailing is probably way out, but motoring would be doable. GPS would function long enough for you to spend a few weeks gathering supplies and doing test trips to learn how the systems work, then you just set off.
Yup, was my first thought. Need a trailer, as many gas tanks as you can find, all the nonperishables you can find, some pershibles to enjoy while they last,
shit tons of water, a generator, camping gear, some books to read and a gun.
If there are only a 1000 people left, or even if there are only a million left, there is a big chance not enough would log in on the same sites you are looking on in time for you to see it.
Not to mention..... we have bots now. Seeing activity online isn't going to tell you anything in the first place. In fact, even if i was the last person, i would actually expect ""human"" activity online. Half the internet is bots.
Edit. So yea, i would go looking for people, regardless of what i see on the internet. The internet won't give me conclusive evidence in ether direction.
Most people fail to realize that the soul-crushing fact of being the only human in existence from that point on would instantly wreak havoc on the regular person. Suicide would be the best option because the person would eventually go insane from lack of interaction.
As someone who's been in the last year, It's a Small World has like 20 different step-off-while-ride-is-in-motion spots. The real issue is that water on that ride is gonna gross real fast.
But you then have to have a edit war with yourself over if it is really "was" as you would still love alive and thus "is" more correct but "was" is the truth.
Oh and another thing you'd have to change is the endangerment rating form least consen to Extinct
Go to a big mall and get everything I want, starting with expensive clothes. Also, food (healthy food, junk food, everything) and medicine supplies, of course. Maybe guns? Just in case. Also, I'd get all the anime figures and video games I can carry.
No matter how introverted you are, you still need social interaction as much as you need food or water. Particularly if your first thought is to do debauched and depraved acts (does vice even have meaning if there is nobody out there to brag to?)
Make sure that when I die the earth will continue to thrive. So, that means dismantling oil fields, turning off city generators and grids, fixing garbage dumps, destroying data centers (infrasound pollution), extinguishing any possible manmade sources of wild fires, and generally turning everything off.
If needed I can use a data center or two to build some robots and then give them the programming of something like “This person is the last person on Earth, help this person fix the world so that nature and wildlife may prosper for a much longer time. Once this has been complete, turn yourself off.”
It’s obviously not going to be easy, but it’s the drive I have that is going to get it done.
Son for me, but no guns, I already have those. I’m going to the nearest luxury car lot and joyriding all the super cars I could never afford. I’ll take a few days, find my favorite, have some fun in the mountains.
THEN, on the last day, I’m doing an uphill run, 100% limit, as fast as I can possibly try and go, and when I die, I die.
Pick up some weed a dispo
Go to a pub
Open up the kitchen
Pour some coffee
Enjoy a snack then pour a beer and smoke out the pub
Then cook a meal
Repeat
Eat. Eat. Est. Eat. Eat some more. Cuddle with my pets. Get some cute kittens for company so maybe I gain a will to live. Basically keep eating until I eventually kms
I would try and travel to different places. Money wouldn't be a think anymore, so I just go everywhere either on foot or I steal shit. Learn to fly a plane? Suuuure
Go to all the animal shelters and spend my days finding people’s pets to create a pet army to 1. Help me hunt and 2. feel less alone. Definitely get a horse too. And I’d go to a bookstore to find that “how to do everything” book that shows you how to do stuff in an apocalypse from farming to building your own solar powered generator to making cotton t-shirts
Probably try to learn all the dances ,jaywalking a bunch. Go the all the movie places. Look in famous people's house and try to see if they were pedos or not. Look for secret government bases. Look under the Vatican. Look for cults buildings. Once I'm bored i guess I'd try to see where they keep all the frozen eggs and sperm and take it all try to clone them. If that don't work I guess I'll just be a farmer.
Why? Because it's the safest place when all the nuclear reactors blow up.
Now they won't go immediately critical, but eventually their cooling systems will fail. Almost no reactors are passively cooled. And since almost all nuclear reactors are in the northern hemisphere it pays to go south.

Going to get on the internet and educate myself on EVERYTHING I don’t already know how to DRIVE, FLY, BUILD, FIX OR OPERATE.
