Many people are saying it folks: 4 degrees of warming by the end of the century (even as soon as 2070s) is a real possibility. How much longer do you think the :lmayo: countries in the north can hang on under these conditions?

    One of the scariest things I've ever seen depicted in a movie is in Bladerunner 2064 where a solar flare has already fried all the electronics on earth - everything from financial records to digital photo albums all gone - but neoliberalism lurches onward regardless.

          I thought they were talking about the movie but I guess that's BR 2049, and but there'll be a TV series set in 2099? Now I don't know if this solar flare even happened or if it's just bort's fever dream

            I think she was just fucking around while referring to BR 2049. there is definitely a plot point in the movie about a big blackout that wiped out records, but it is not explicitly named as a Carrington Event
