Essential infrastructure for what? Roads aren't essential for survival. Electricity isn't essential for survival. But essential for modern life?
Do to be clear, you imagine everyone has access to clean water, all the food they need in their personal farms, and the means to harvest all that - in their back yards?!
"Essential for X" and "Essential for Y" and "Essential for (X or Y) for all people" are all different things. That's why I asked the question: "Essential for what?" Food and water are essential for life. Roads and Electricity are essential for modern life. Internet access is essential for modern life in the near future if not already.
Magically destroy all roads, electricity, and internet access, and there will still be enough people alive to go back to 1800's style rural living (since there wouldn't be fuel for tractors et al). But cities will be abandoned and lots of people will starve or die in resource wars. Just destroy the internet, and there will be a lot of unpaid bills and taxes, people losing access to funds they stored in purely online banks, disruptions in credit, and financial market chaos. The DOW would crash faster than a bandicoot on spin-cycle.
From my fields. From my woods. Oh, you mean modern food? Technically, that can be purchased and brought home on horseback or foot without roads too. Although I'm allergic to horses.
Essential infrastructure for what? Roads aren't essential for survival. Electricity isn't essential for survival. But essential for modern life? Essential for sustaining the economy? Essential for military security (that's the initial reason for public roads and the internet).
I won't drink Jones' Soda's Turkey Dinner, no matter how good it might taste. I want the texture of meat. Conversely, I have a friend who won't eat steak (but will eat hamburger) because of the texture. Maybe she'll like the mealy fake steak.
If Federal kill-switch legislation is passed, you can bet it will be amended such that you will need local, state, and federal approval before you can wipe your own phone.
If the story was REALLY bad, all of it plus I seethe with rage forever.
Now go: collect sentience from the species of the galaxy with the sentience thresher and deposit it in the sentience silo at the center of the galaxy for the eternal ones to eat.
Soilent sentience is People!
In the games that were AWESOME, I do. And you know what made those games awesome in my opinion? Internally consistent plots (along with good gameplay).
But this firmware is killer, which in software terms is the same as bodacious!
P.S. I find it sad that bodacious isn't in my browser's or OS' dictionary files.

In the case of velociraptors, the farmers will have to shoot them to prevent losses of farmers.

Well no wonder we don't know the recommendations. The CDC is dabbling in metric.
So when I eat a fatty steak, I enjoy it because it's processed food?
Powershell can download via http. So can vbscripts.
That's the thing: XP no longer receives security patches. It's reached EOL.
The wild deer population has to be controlled by man, otherwise the population will skyrocket
It doesn't have to be man doing the controlling. We could reintroduce wolves, cougars, saber tooth tigers, and velociraptors.

I'm glad they made that clear before I spent money on them.

Did you know arkinoid had a plot? It was written in the game manual.
It was explicitly spelled out in the follow up episode. He tried to steal her candy.

You can Finnish it in one sitting.
That joke was terrible. Don't like my criticism? Suomi.

What's a meta for?
Get one that prints with sugar (either crystal or powdery paste) and they'll beat a path to your door.
I'm going to bet they get special plates just like congressmen.
Smartphones don't automatically create a security culture. Ask the parents of kids who bought $5000 worth of in-game purchases with real money.
So then games should cost $120 because of all the level designers, or they should be procedurally generated or mostly empty space (aka boring)?
Whilst we're sorting out the doors, I'd also like to be able to lift my feet a bit higher and climb over small walls, rocks etc.
