There's still the potential of a foreign cyber attack, or some kind of EMP disturbing the network, but the government will NEVER admit to it if it is the real cause. Best evidence for an attack would be if authorities keep saying they don't know the cause a few months after this.
They're not gonna admit that green energy left the energy grid unstable and caused this either. But if this is the cause of the blackout, you can expect the government to silently take measures to reinforce the grid, measures that are designed specifically to address this weakness. And there will likely be non-governmental providers and investigators that will be able to prove it over time.
So basically, I think people will need to be patient for the truth on this one, but also be careful not to forget about it, and allow their government to escape scrutiny.
Best and most reasonable explanation I've heard so far for the Spain blackout.
So quick question, why are we allowing the CCP access to work on the biggest OS that powers so much of the western internet infrastructure?

Silly dream for a silly day
So I dreamed that a Serbian military airplane invaded my country's airspace, and it was all up on the news.
Concerns that we were being attacked, confusion, all that. So we tried to tried to send our own plane, to get close and establish radio contact, and figure out what was up. It took a while, both planes were shitty old Soviet models, so not very fast or maneuverable, but they eventually got close enough together for our pilot to ask "what's up, you invaded our airspace".
The response we got from the Serbian pilot: "I know, I'm just trolling you guys. Bye!". And then he turned around and flew away.
If you're Serbian, a military pilot, or especially both of these, please don't do this.
Update on this: there's a backup.

Well... if our power grid drops out due to "extreme temperature variations", I have my ebook reader charged, I have a good amount of AA and AAA batteries, I have an old MP3 player ready (the kind that runs with AAA batteries), a simple portable radio, a few roms loaded in my phone's Retroarch, and a bluetooth gamepad that has a surprisingly long battery life.
I'm fairly confident I'm not at risk of getting bored. Though I can't rely that much on gaming on my phone. Still, it would hold longer than a laptop. And I could probably charge it a few times over from my laptop and power bank.
