The system may be failing, but “infinite growth” is the natural result of inflation which is intentionally targeted to a positive number.

If you think your salary should keep up with inflation, then you too need infinite growth.

I bought the Cyberpower 1500 six years ago, and I have no complaints. Just last week it worked perfectly when the power went out.

I use it to keep my NAS and router running, they will last about two hours on battery. But a desktop + monitor might have higher power requirements.
