What will you do if the wifi goes down for 24 full hours worldwide?

Question

veganrogue · Accepted Answer

Enjoy walking down Manhattan streets without the idiots staring at their phones walking right into me. I lived pre-internet for almost 25 years and I can live without it for 24 hours. As a matter of fact on my vacation time, I'll commonly turn off my phone for a good week and enjoy the real world as opposed to the digital one. I know... blasphemy right?

Maybe you mean internet, I could always use my phone network but if it’s everything I could just watch tv and use regular gps for navigation or paper maps

WaterIsland · Answer

Well, definitely not work that day since I work from home. If it’s summer time I’d probably go for a bike ride. If it’s winter, I’d probably get extra chores done or find a project around the house to work on.

I guess if I had a book or movie already downloaded I’d read/watch that. But that is kinda skirting the line about the intent of the question.

Anpu23 · Answer

I have a lot of off line projects and hobbies. If I lost internet for 24 hours I wouldn't be able to work, so I'd hobby. Maybe clean, but I wouldn't be board iuf that was the question.

If we lost power on the other hand we'd be on the generator, and I would have limited access to other projects.

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

Honestly some days I wouldn't even notice. I'd either hotspot or use the ethernet if it was a work day and I was working from home, otherwise I'd be working on a project or playing with the rescue kittens or lounging around the house and I might not notice it's off at all.

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

It’s simple & for starters it’s only 24 hours so I can handle it. On the flip side I don’t need wifi because my home is networked though routers & Ethernet cables.

ObscuredBeyond · Answer

Wonder what you're doing, wonder how soon it'll be back, hope the 5G works enough that I can finish copying what I need off the MAA Fanfic Universe Wiki to finish my encyclopedia about last decade, get some paintings done, and maybe take a nap.

AviatorTom · Answer

I think you mean the Internet goes down worldwide for 24 hours. WiFi is a local thing.

I lived many years before the Internet existed. I'd simply return to those days. Communicating in person and via telephone, and watching network television and DVD movies.

EmmaMary · Answer

Oh believe you me, there's a thousand and one things I could be getting on with! However, primarily it would naturally increase the extra time we would spend with the children.

Nothing. Because the world would stop turning! You couldn’t buy anything. Credit cards wouldn’t work. Cashiers couldn’t add up purchases and make change.
