Gadjet reliance

[addjunkie]

well what a relief,

If I was asked do I rely on gadjets, Id have said no, but this morning stupid dog number two woke me up early, went to surf the news etc as you do with cuppa.....ipad black screen, no life. Quick panic press various button combinations....still dead.

On to phone, help how do I wake my gadjet up???

What a relief I felt after 2 hours, reading, fiddling, charging when the little apple icon appearded.

Cant decide if it was better than bad sex or my reserve parachute opening some yesrs ago when needed in anger..

How reliant on electronics we are what happens when there is a major solar flare....

Sure you're not thinking about a meteor?

Solar flares are, as I understand them, are what knock out radio communications/GPS etc with high dose radiation - harmless to humans but can cause chaos with electronics.

I think that was what he was referring to, how most of us would be screwed without electronics.

As Outof' mentioned, there'd be anarchy if peoples gadgets stopped working. Some people are completely dependant on them, these days.

I see you are not letting the device make it's own choices on how to spell things
