It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Your primary residence catches on fire and burns for one hour before the fire gets put out. How much do you lose? (All living beings are safe) (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

There were not enough time to get anything at all, not even your phone, keys, or wallet, you have nothing besides your clothes and any disability aids (like glasses, hearing aids, etc.). Anything that can't sustain one hour of burning will be destroyed. All living beings are safe.

Things to thing about: money, sentimental stuff, journals, books, hard drives / digital data, and all of the time and effort you spend organizing your bedroom.

we've recently cleared out our shed and then filled it with crates and crates of stuff. and it's more than far enough away to be safe from a house fire that starts in the house.

losses would still be devastating but it wouldn't be everything like most people in this thread.
