Sure.. last power failure was like 4 years ago and the one before that was also measured in multiple years.
Back when I still used a UPS down here, it was usually the UPS that died and triggered the power failure. So I stopped investing in a UPS.
Where I live the power is quite dirty, so even when power losses are measured in years I invest in line-filtering UPS’ to extend the life of my systems.
I even lost a MBP to a light flickering event with 0 power loss. Fried the charging circuit straight through the original power brick.
