Are power outages even a thing? My PC at home (germany) is always on, so I'd notice, and I'm involved with energy at our data center (Frankfurt, Germany) and home and external data center had no outage for the last 20 years, at a minimum.

Germany has an average of 30 minutes of downtime per person per year, Amerika seems to be around 8 hours

Could not find data how this is distributed..

Yes, rural communities exist.
