its protection seems somewhat limited though
the hydraulic suspensions seem to be there to limit the movement of the ball so that it doesn't swing out of control
The ball may provide ample suspension from horizontal quakes but the same can't be said for quakes with a lot of vertical movement
if theres vertical movement shits fucked no matter what you do, thankfully thata pretty rare
another small quake right now.
poor Hualien tbh
Also Taiwan looks like a sweet potato
🤔
a sweet potato can look like anything
yes but the typical sweet potato is longish and slightly curved like that
no offense intended but please consider for a moment
lol
Is that your home?
Yeah. Fresh cracks
Do you live in a tall building?
the cracks keep forming between plaster wall dividers
if it were concrete walls i'd be in trouble
Sure, doesn't look cool anyway
i have bad feeling another large earthquake soon.
this is how people here feel 24/7
stay safe fella
get it inspected. It could be something simple like external damage on the plaster layer (assuming reinforced concrete structure with masonry walls)
if you're renting, move out ASAP
christ
When I met my gf in Taiwan the first time, her student dorm had 2-3cm cracks and you could see the bricks
its a hipstery design element at that point
<:tipsfedora:383326576609329162>
The first time I met the boyfriend of my wife, it put some cracks in my self-esteem
yep cracks are everywhere lol
but its fine as long as the key foundation parts of the building are strong
@transience you'll find that the network hardware wasn't at fault there
something further upstream went shitty
probably all 3 providers rely on the same fibre backhaul and some retard fucked shit up back there
