skellatYep00:38
skellatThe relation had "robotic surgery"00:39
skellatAnd from how the machinery was described, **nobody** was pondering if the things was running F/LOSS software.  It was described as something that looked like it used a comic book as design inspiration.00:40

jrgiffordouch.16:59
skellatYeah, that's how fragile our local power & comms infrastructure can be17:01
skellatBesides, our cell towers get "backhoe interference" at the worst times when people fail to Call Before You Dig17:02
jrgiffordi regard all utilities to be fragile.17:02
jrgiffordPOTS is slightly less fragile, i make some assumptions about it *being* there.17:02
jrgiffordbut that's about it.17:02
skellatPOTS, electricity, Time Warner Cable, and I can't remember who else all got knocked out with that accident17:03
skellatThankfully it was a lower populated area of Kingsville Township stretching into Sheffield Township17:06
skellatAshtabula City and the 3 surrounding townships (Plymouth, Saybrook, and Ashtabula) would've been a bit of a problem17:07
dzhojrgifford: I've been resisting joining the ham effort, but the increasing irrelevance of POTS has me reconsidering19:04
dzhowith the idea that ham radio might be a better emergency fallback than POTS these days19:05
jrgifforddzho: hm. interesting point.20:15
