Nah. There’s way too many literate people, and information is easy to access. This isn’t going to be a dark age dystopia. It’ll be closer to corporate owned life.

So a glorified tablet?

Well for starters most residential outlets are rated for 15 amps. You don’t need to run a lot of stuff on that outlet, a vacuum and a space heater is most likely enough for the outlet to overheat. Toss in an extension cord and another appliance and the outlet is going to melt. And since you’re only pulling like 25 amps once the short happens when the live parts touch each other the arc explosion would be spectacular. Since you’re on a 500 amp switch gear breaker with selective coordination set in a way that not only is the outlet done, but the wiring I’m assuming is not ran to the outlet in 600kcm copper, so all the wiring from the outlet to the breaker is also going up in vapor. By the time the breaker trips your house just went through a neat fireworks show and it’s ablaze.

Be careful, apparently I got banned from lemmy.ml for mentioning that the friends I have living in Venezuela see Maduro and “his goons” gone (his words) as great news. The future though is not bright and the people are still very sceptical of Trumps motives. Obviously for us here in the US the writing is on the wall for anyone who’s lived through Iraq.
