And now for the segue into a shower thought - so the first thing night side would notice is the Moon disappearing (if it’s in the night sky), but after that, how long before effects begin to suggest something is seriously wrong on the day side. Something tells me it will be sooner than the morning.
I’d assume after 8 minutes the people on the day side would notice and all media would blow up, so hopefully you’d be asleep and wouldn’t have to worry :)
But all the solar panels will stop working so there will be no electricity. Batteries would run out and any other source of energy would be destroyed by people who started a cult worshipping the Sun hoping it would reappear
So no social media on the part of the Earth that would notice the disappearance of the sun. The other side wouldnt have any problems with electricity since they wouldnt have the Sun-worshipping cult

I wonder how long till everyone was dead. And what would be the last living species.

The ocean would revolt.
