i think ~1-2 per winter usually its a tree hitting a power line in a storm o algo
>>
Power outages: once, twice a month
Water outage: once, twice a year (during summer, may last for a week)
Waste disposal strikes: once a year
>>
1-2 a year (we're a third world shithole)
>>
Never

>>223437183
2-3 a year. but this is belgrade, capital city.
in rural areas it could be 3-5 outages in a month.
>>
>>223437183
Haven't had one years (I live in London), last time I'm sure it was just our street
>>
Never happened in my entire life here.
>>
>>223437183
only when there's a really bad storm and even then the lights come back on in less than 10 seconds
>>
>>223437183
idk but i got my internet cutoff for like for 24 hours couple times this year
>>
>>223437183
seldomly where i'm living right now
but it was close to a daily occurrence back in the town I used to live
>>
>>223437183
Unusually often now that i think about it. This flat is a fucking shithole
>>
Our electric grid is privatized so pretty often. The worst part is we pay for it.
>>
Last time it was out for any significant length of time was after Hurricane Helene shreked the entire upper South, knocked a few trees down and tore up power lines
>>
>>223437183
It rarely happens, but sometimes it does due to rain, since the streets where I live are filled with trees. Before the pandemic, we had water rationing two or three times a week. It stayed that way for a few years.

So go suck a cock and live on welfare state while bvlls fuck your blonde little sister. Fucking firsties, nobody wants to hear how perfect your stupid life is.
>>
>>223437183
Almost never
>inb4 it goes off just as i say it doesn't
>>
>>223437183
Happens to me once every five years or so, always because a storm knocked down a powerline.

Once or twice a year for a few hours but at least they message beforehand and claim it’s for upgrades. It usually happens after 9 AM.

>>223437303
Based and uptime pilled.
>>
>>223437183
it's only been off for more than a couple of minutes once in the three years I've lived here
>>
>>223437183
Unscheduled ones? I think it’s five years since last time. There was a scheduled one that lasted for 30 mins ish some weeks back because they’re building an apartment building next door and needed to connect that to the power grid.
>>
>>223437183
5 days a week in average, 5 hours each
>>
>>223437183
I've experienced 3 of them in 34 years.
>>
>>223437183
Often. We don't have enough power. Long story.
And they kept trying to sell electric cars and bikes. The country's retarded.
>>
>>223437183
Good thread OP.

Bumo w00p!
>>
>>223437183
Basically never. Think we've had one short power out in my entire life but mostly the lights will just flicker a bit if a thunderstorm or something is fucking stuff up.
>>
>>223437183
I dont know I dont put such irrelevant events into my memory palace
>>

>during summer, may last for a week

>>
>>223437183

Couples times a summer during bad weather.
In winter it can be never or several weeks without power.
Rural Sweden fucking sucks when it comes to the power grid since above-ground power lines and poles are still in use like some third world country.
Picrel happens pretty often.
