I’ve been asked about power outage trackers occasionally. And, the thing is… BPL (or was it Bahamas Grid who knows) has an outage tracker.

Mainstream tech news is not worth the time (in my opinion). But, maybe it’s a fun waste of time? Fun fact/joke: Newton predicted that the world would definitely not end before 2060 (a true pessoptimist).
