    black out = a failure of electrical power supply

    brown out = a reduction in or restriction on the availability of electrical power in a particular area

    "The term brownout comes from the dimming experienced by lighting when the voltage sags. Brownouts can cause poor performance of equipment or even incorrect operation. A blackout is the total loss of power to an area and is the most severe form of power outage that can occur." Source: Google

    And it shows how clueless you are. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights is the foundation of our democracy here. I can't stand NRA nuts, hate groups, etc but they are afforded the right to bear arms and free speech by our constitution. It's as important an issue as any.

    I hate Vegas, a bunch fat Midwestern white trash with their "what happens in Vegas" and "Vegas Baby" bull**** gets nauseating.

    you can't fix stupid and they need somewhere to go so all that doesn't bother me. the city uses a ton of resources from elsewhere and produces virtually nothing themselves.

    Never heard of that :shock: Probably because in advanced countries there are only blackouts, brownouts seems more like a thing that happened 50 years ago, when the power infrastructures were barely able to provide enough electricity.
