Here is the scenario. There are no more energy sources to power your electronic devices:

Not the sun (solar eclipse)

Not large bodies of water which power Dams (the dams are broken)

Not your batteries (they are all worn out)

Not the outlets (the power grid is out for the entire world)

Not the hand cranks or other man-powered devices (they mechanical non operational)

Not any fossil fuels (they are being carefully rationed)

. . . Fellow SW'ers, what would you do in a situation such as this? Elaborate.

Eidt: To this saying that this is not relevant to SW, there is a reason why I ask you all. You are all bias toward devices that run off of an energy source. In a scenario such as the one outlined above, what would you do?

Mind you, I ask this without a hit of irony. So, I know it is difficult for some people in SW to answer (w/ out being trollish), but I think that if you all pull together your (as people around these marvelous devices) resources you can find some answer as to what to do in a situation like the one a presented above.

Also, I will grant you that you have enough energy sources to power your fridge and do other required stuff but (obviously) you're not going to want to sacrifice your life over wanting to use something that can power your gaming device(s). (Or would you?) Answer below, SW'ers!

Assuming the shadow is permanent, India will become much cooler. That will cause a sharper temperature contrast between India and the surrounding sunlit areas. The temperature contrast will allow the formation of winds. So, India can harness that. Winds not driven by a pressure gradient flows from cooler to warmer. India can have a network of wind farms facing inward.

In a situation like that I think the last thing I'd be worried about is playing video games.

This would probably be better in the lounge.
