    Does anybody know why this just happened? This is highly concerning.

  3. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    a/c being turned on in the evenings to cool off the summer heat

  4. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    thats the guess id wager

  5. tom

    15 Gigawatts of energy demand doesn't just instantly drop off from the grid

  6. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    as someone who lives in an area that practically doesnt have seasons

  7. tom

    all at ounce

  8. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    > 15 Gigawatts of energy demand doesn't just instantly drop off from the grid looks like it declines from like 7pm 4am and then slowly builds up again to me

  9. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    > 15 Gigawatts of energy demand doesn't just instantly drop off from the grid major power outage?

    It didn't deline. The graph just did a vertical line from 51000 megawatts to 36000 megawatts

  11. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    like if a line went down that knocked out a huge area? i dont know how common that is in the mainland

  12. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    i think i thought the bit at the end was just a graphing error

  13. tom

    I'm only seeing around 300 people lost in seattle and a another 300 in oregon

  14. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    > like if a line went down that knocked out a huge area? i dont know how common that is in the mainland here its very common for a line going down to poweroutage half an island

  15. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    so i dont know how that translates

  16. jjj333_p [pain.agency]

    but it feels like that kinda outage

  17. tom

    15 gigawatts.

  18. tom

    That's a massive amount to lose

  19. tom

    instantly

  20. diane

    A totally uninformed guess, maybe someone turned off a couple of AI data centers.

  21. ri

    It would be hilarious if that's actually the case

    An incredibly negligent thing to do.
