Title: What would happen if all the computers stopped today...
Post by: Mike Stenson (RIP) on August 12, 2011, 04:36:53 AM
Was thinking to much the other day and thought what would happen if all the computers in the world stopped working.  sorriso2

Here a list of things I thought of..

All the money will disappear..
No electricity/ no lights
No water
No tv or radio
No phones/cell phones
No post
No pc's/facebook/email/oranjemund on line.
All the airplanes will fall out of the sky.
No trains.
No street robots
No taxes
All the mines and factories will stop working.
No beer.
No cameras
Most clocks will stop working.
No ATM's
No check point.
No shop tills.
No GPS
Lots of cars and trucks will stop.
Most micro waves will not work.
No burglar alarms.
No weather reports.
Food will get scares to .
Hospitals will come to a standstill.


There must be lots more, what can you think of...

No Oranjemundonline,
and a lot of the modern cars would not work, seeing as they build them these days with so many PC parts....

Peace and quiet as well as calm would prevail after  complete and utter panic, uprisings, coup de tats, chaos and social pandemonium. People would not know how to live their lives and the energy required to re-adjust to a manual life would sadly see increases in suicides.

Just think, people would have to walk a lot more. Pubs would fill up and communities would regenerate and bond again. Handwriting would make a big comeback. Farms would regenerate, handbuilt carriages will be revivied, skills from the pre-1970's would have to be resurrected Whhoooot!

Fantasy might just finally become a reality.
