There is currently no power in the Iberian Peninsula. It has been going for about 9 hours now. Yet on Lemmy, I feel like no one talk about this huge international event.

    Maybe because the people that are affected don’t have power.

        I would like to speculate that the entire Iberian peninsula has fallen into the Atlantic. Andorra is coastline now.

      Can confirm - we just got our power back (I’m in Lisbon). We had internet access for the first hour or so, but after that we were offline for several hours. Most of my family (outside of Lisbon) are still unreachable.

    It was a failure of the interconnection between France and Spain after a sudden drop in power, but no reports of what caused the drop yet.

    Have you heard any theories about what it could have been that caused the drop?.

      First I’ve heard of it, and I’ve checked lemmy at least four times today
