My answer to both is “not much”.
“I’m planning to sleep through it”

As an avid camper, my YT suggestions are filled with “prepper” vids, and that’s really helped in planning everything out. I now keep a little vial of cyanide ready, because I am NOT dealing with those aholes.
I downloaded a shit ton of technical, survival, medicinal, herbal, and even the DSM -5 (cause mental health is important too when everything around you is crumbling ) books.
Why digital you ask ? Well, all these book aren’t available where i live and also because generating electricity isn’t a problem anymore with solar and it allow to create a lot of accurate copies of each book later to share with the survivors.
Making a generator isn’t really too hard either. Wrap some copper around a magnet and spin the magnet.
Am not very knowledgeable about these kinds of stuff but isn’t the hardest part is to output a stable voltage. I don’t even know how and if you can store such fluctuating energy.
I’m not sure… I’m not a magnetist… But I’ve seen them manually dial the stargate by wrapping some copper wire around it. So how hard can it be?
Idk if a stable output is necessary to charge a battery. They make flashlights and other small things with simple generators you power by shaking, which charges the battery that runs the light.
I’ve never taken one apart to see what else is going on, but I’d sure like to.
yea, they usually have a rectifier in it. All that is usually is a configuration of four diodes(a component that only lets current flow one direction) so it can take the alternating current(AC) and convert it to direct current(DC) and then a large capacitor to stabilize the rectified voltage.
That’s really interesting. So you can technically make you own rectifier with salvaged electrics.
If you’re going to do that, salvaging a rectifier is probably easier. They’re in most devices nowadays
Thanks for the tip.
An AR15 and a lifetime of video game experience will get me through the apocalypse right? Right?!?!?
I am once again asking for your soup
What happened a million times to YOU in these games?
Good point, best to load a previous save.
If there’s ever a settlement in need of help, I know who to ask!
My plan for all end of the world scenarios is the same. Imma blow my fucking brains out because im not even going to try to deal with that.
If it’s nuclear Armageddon, that won’t be necessary. Just get to the highest place you can quickly and watch the show.
Run towards the bomb
Honestly this, if you are at drop sight death is immediate. Worst is on thebout edge where your body slowly melts from radiation exposure. Fun times.
I’m ready to start a new internet
But this one already has blackjack and hookers.
I keep asking chatgpt when the Purge is, where can I see Shirley Jackson type lotteries, or can I challenge people to thunderdome
Chatgpt keeps telling me that those are fictional as of it’s knowledge cutoff.

As a communist I do. The fall will make space for a rebuilding of a better world.
Empty words is not a plan

Accelerationism won’t work because no matter how bad it gets, that won’t magically teach people to use your solution. We’ll just become even more barbaric. You’ll be quoting Marx to cannibal cultists.
You’ve chosen an easy delusion to feel better about a dire situation. Snap out of it and educate people now.
Has communism ever worked with a number of people above 100? Or are you planning to split people up into small communities and/or cull them?
Read a book.
What book do you recommend?
Lets start with a short paper like The Principles of Communism
Fall, since the collapse of autumn, being the only option that’s left.
Living around the equator means we don’t get autumn here…
I wish I had plans for “the fall”
at the current pace it might be both
Is Lemmy always this ridiculously apocalyptic? Do you guys need some help?
No, help is not required. I am safe, and you can trust me fellow human. There is no apocalypse happening below your nose. Your nose is too small to fit an apocalypse under. LOL. Human humor is humorous as I am one!
WHY ARE YOU YELLING, FELLOW HUMAN?
FINALLY, SOMEONE ELSE ON HERE NOT YELLING.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR POLITE TONE, FELLOW HUMAN
I mean what else do you do when the world is on fire and we decided we can’t turn off the gas?
I just need someone to get me out of here. Their choice of interpretation on what that means (body/country/planet/era/other). (Note/medical thing: my body can’t/doesn’t really sweat, so a heat wave could easily kill me. )
But other than that? It don’t matter, none of this matters.
No we’re good thank you.
‘Fall’ is not used to describe autumn in most places outside the US.
Yes, it’s always this ridiculous. It’s the polar opposite of Q level conspiracies except somehow democrats. The weird thing is you’d think they’d be cool with RFK Jr. but apparently he’s an antisemitic Nazi because vaccines or something.
What a weird take

No but he is batshit. He makes some really good points but all that is overshadowed by some of his crazier theories.
