Hey Pandas, What Would Happen If All The World’s Computers Stopped Working Forever? (Closed)

Mass chaos? Uprising? Incredible amounts of needless homicide and suicides. Religious catastrophizing. Panic toward the notion that we, as people, have lost most of the industrial skills we once had. A second, subsequent, industrial revolution. A dark age. Monarchies. De-unionization of countries. The fall of modern currency. Commercial business models will erode and devolve. Bartering will become viable business again.

where do i sign up?

Massive famine and death. Not enough people realize how much the high yields of modern agriculture are dependent on data analysis and computer-controlled machinery.

My disappointment would be immeasurable and my life would be ruined. And then I would just play exploding kittens forever and ever and ever

If all the computers in the world stopped working forever, I don't think I'd be here, writing this answer.

I would literally die

No computers= unhappy people
unhappy people=suicide
suicide= money for coffin companies
Stonks

everyone would go mad and i'd dieeeee

The people would get on their phones.

The middle ages all over again.

NO MORE ZOOM :D

Believe it or not we would all survive the way people did for thousands of years before they were invented. Unlike us today, what they had never known they didn't miss.

HUGE period of adjustment while we go back to 1940s technology. Bye-bye to smart phones, cars with computers, diagnostic equipment in hospitals, programmable household appliances, and calculators. Oh, and goodbye to the astronauts on the space station, because there will be no way to resupply them or bring them home. Hello again to the slide rule, board games, letter writing, pay phones, and typewriters. We managed before, we'll manage again. -- Until the worldwide power grid fails,

I WOULD DIE well I still have a i-pad sooooooooooo I might be ok
