If we have a total global outage, Stack Overflow will be unavailable, and the internet will never be fixed. :) Mostly joking, I hope...

- jaywalk 5y agoSome brave soul at Stack Overflow will have to physically go into the datacenter, roll up a cart with a keyboard, monitor and printer and start printing off a bunch of Networking answers.
- lesam 5y agoThe StackOverflow datacenter is famously tiny - like, 10 Windows servers. So even if the rest of the internet goes down hopefully they stay up. They might have to rebuild the internet out from their server room though.
- orhmeh09 5y agoLarge portions of stackoverflow are archived and available for download with the Kiwix app (typically used for offline Wikipedia). Same with the arch wiki. Might keep it around for a rainy day.
