“Good preppers would have stuff that’s mechanical and not computer chip dependent.”

I got a box of LM555’s put away in a Faraday cage for this very reason.

You have to be a geek to get the joke.

LM555’s are timer chips.

LM380’s are audio amps.

LM741 is operational amp. (& LM358’s)

I’ve got them all, not in box quantities.

And I can etch printed circuit boards.

My junk box is a room.
