In the Philippines, an electrical blackout is called a 'brownout.'Everyone is brown if there is no light.
In australia men go out for days in the bush to goon, they call it a "wankabout"
>>221507007In the past brownout used to mean dimming of light. In the 80s and 90s you either have electricity that's unstable with voltage or none. It was rare to lose power 30 years ago unlike today. Today the private electric company provider can just cut your power for 12 hours and still charge you for it. So the term brownout never really disappeared.
>>221507129Fake newsThe term brownout is used instead of blackout because people are brown as fuck.
>>221507007i don't get it
>>221507205>Fake newsLight bulbs used to be incandescent until the transition to LED so when it dims down it looks brown. I lived through it and stop defending your billion peso company while you're posting here without electricity

The negroes at Meralco are rationing oil reserves hence the rotating outages and hours long blackouts.Rich people don't care since they have backup generators and private oil reserves so they're willing to fuck everyone else up instead of buying more oil.Power companies also refuse to build new powerplants because it'll make electricity cheaper and the oligarchs don't want that. They'll only build to keep the status quo instead of having a robust surplus. But its mostly the oil right now.t. knower
>>221507553>The negroes at Meralco are rationing oil reserves hence the rotating outages and hours long blackouts.Your conspiracy theory falls short when 95% of the country is powered by coal.>Power companies also refuse to build new powerplants because it'll make electricity cheaper and the oligarchs don't want that. This is true, but this is not a conspiracy theory lmao. That's just how filipino businesses are. Nothing new here, they want billions of profit at our expense.

>>221507007a localized electric outage is a brownout. ei just in your street, a portion of your town etc.a provicial electric outage thats a blackout. because it spans multiple municipalities hence largerthats the difference.
