Your part of the world does seem to have particularly unreliable power, at the moment. Sounds much like living in a somewhat rural part of southern Spain under dictator Franco in the early 1970s... power off was a daily occurrence.
Whatever it is they are doing with this HardFork, I just hope the many deliberations mean that it will go off more smoothly than those chaotic affairs back on Steem...
Oh yes, despite the fact that the area in which I am now is actually considered metropolitan area of the country's capital. Let's say that I am on the mountainous frontier forgotten by the gods of the official maintenance of these basic services at the moment. And therefore, I'm more lucky than others to enjoy of more time in the silent darkness. LoL
Yes, me too. I also hope that after they have had to pass by so many of those chaotic affairs back on Steem, they now have gained a lot more of experience to make this current transition as painless and smoothly as would be expected.
