Why don't you have a solar USB charger to prepare for the aocolypse yet guys?

 No.129

Can OP recommend a good one?


 No.130

I had one a few years back when I went on hiking trips regularly but it broke as soon as the warranty was over. You probably need a bigger one than in OPs pic to charge modern smart phone effectively and they are sort of pricey. The real question is do you need your smart phone after communications went down?

That said, this one looks intersting http://www.amazon.com/PowerFilm-USB-AA-Solar-Charger/dp/B001RMBHMK

Is having a close group of able and like-minded friends invaluable when shit hits the fan? Physically fit, mentally sound, each possessing skills and assets that may prove useful when the time comes. Perhaps you are now training together regularly. What is the ideal number for such a group? What would your plans be? Might problems arise?
2 posts omitted. Click reply to view.

 No.80

My friends and I (the three above) have a meeting-plan-area and a symbol to show where we've gone, or if we've been there. Weaponry and fitness isn't a group thing, I wouldn't say.

 No.81

>>52
I would agree with you. Again, 4-5 sounds very reasonable. You can't survive for years by yourself - it's simply not possible to be fully self-sustainable without help. That being said, once you have too many people (especially people who do not entirely trust one another) other issues can arise such as mutiny.

When I move to the states with my girlfriend after I'm finished college, we'll check out any local prepping groups. Should be fun.

 No.89

>>81
'prepping groups' sounds like a gathering of crazy people to me tbh

How well do you have to know the members of your group in order to trust each other and cooperate in a post apocolyptic environment?

And what of family members?

We could put a whole ton of those electricity-generating stationary bikes in a gymnasium, that way we could all get our regular exercise, and generate electricity as well
Furthermore we could get some of those NASA toilet filtration systems so our waste can be recycled into water, in interviews astronauts have said that recycled water is the cleanest they've ever had

For sure. My girlfriend is a city girl. Lives in Houston, art-major, addicted to the internet and vidya, favorite food is sushi, can't live with the thermostat below 76 degrees Fahrenheit, buys tons of shit she doesn't need (or want, even), doesn't have any wealth outside of her bank.

I was raised in a rural or sub-urban environment, went camping several times a month, became an Eagle Scout when I was 16, graduated college early with two degrees--Economics and Political Science. When I was focused on my studies I realized exactly how fucked we all were and how transitive my girlfriend's lifestyle truly is.

When I try to convey my knowledge to her, she pretends it doesn't exist. I try to teach her practical skills, but she swears up and down that she will never ever need to know them.

Women will be completely fucked when the happening happens.

I'm that guy, I have a girlfriend, and to be totally honest, she's pretty nice, we speak about the happening, survival, go out camping some times, etc, but I can tell for sure, that no matter how much she try to convince herself, she doesn't want to live on the happening...

I see this is mostly a survivalist/causes board at the moment, so I'd like to introduce myself with a couple of important questions:
>What purpose do you see an apocalypse serving?
>Do you want an apocalypse, or are you entire on the safety/theory side? Nothing wrong with either.
>what is your preferred cause of the apocalypse?
>I've been collecting apocalyptic-themed pictures for a couple of years. Yes, I have a lot, (1000+) so no this isn't a question, but if a lot of you want to see I'll hand them out like fucking candy. Boring examples are shown: I have more specific ones, by apocalypse type.
>How many people are on here? If it's just me, my shadow and a dead owner I will be very disappointed.

>What purpose do you see an apocalypse serving?
Serving who? Like some sort of conspiracy that Big Brother or extremists would gain from it? I would see an apocalypse as a good reason to reinstate National Socialism on a global scale, so in that sense, I'm all for it.
>Do you want an apocalypse, or are you entire on the safety/theory side? Nothing wrong with either.
As stated previously, I wouldn't mind. I've already deleted my Facebook and other social media platforms, so I wouldn't be too upset if the internet went down (except for 8chan and Runescape)
>what is your preferred cause of the apocalypse?
Likely it will be economic-based. The dollar plummets, unemployment soars, riots start, etc. However a zombie-type infection scenario could be pretty exciting.
>I've been collecting apocalyptic-themed pictures for a couple of years. Yes, I have a lot, (1000+) so no this isn't a question, but if a lot of you want to see I'll hand them out like fucking candy. Boring examples are shown: I have more specific ones, by apocalypse type.
Fallout and the whole 1950s red scare was pretty radical
>How many people are on here? If it's just me, my shadow and a dead owner I will be very disappointed.
At least 5 people.

 No.91

1. When failure means vast consequences, there won't be shitty Liberal Leaders like today that will just blame someone else
2. Sometimes I do, because that will mean everyday men can achieve greatness and rebuild a better society, though that society will eventually go rotten, but worth the effort , because do you think someone from a rich family will know the plight of everyday people? And if you think Ordinary men can become leaders now your retarded.
2. I always liked a good ol' zombie apocolypse, not the American "ZOOOMBIYES" but something from the Walking dead (Comics) where zombies aren't even that big of a threat, but if I could pick out an OC apocalypse it would be an Asteroid crashing into earth making Dinosaur extinction 2.0, and a small asteroid hitting earth with alien (microbial) life on it creating mass epidemics and creating vast pink splurges where fields once were.
4. yes please
