so annoying. all the bigger earthquakes happen at midnight
http://www.cwb.gov.tw/index.htm is not loading for me anymore
give it a minute or two. im guessing everybody is refreshing that page right now
and I figured out a way to roughly estimate when the next 4.5 mag or higher earthquake will happen
after every 7~9 medium (3.5 ~4 ish) earthquake, there will be a significantly stronger one
after 40 mins passed after a 4.5 or larger earthquake without any smaller earthquakes, there will be another larger one
I know that a bunch of Italians are renting a lot of computing power in Lugano's super computing centre in an attempt to predict seismic activity
you should tell them your find 😄
Damn it where are the cali quakes
My find is based on 8 hours of data. its hardly reliable <:thenk:329322130804047872>
it loaded for me a few minutes ago
I went to a presentation of them
sick stuff they're doing
earth quakes are a huge energy source
imagine if we could absorb that
with your qt little island shaking like that, if we could absorb the energy, you could power your night markets for years
I think it's a super exciting field
and yet we know so little about it
what pun?
`Super exciting field`
"field"
oh
not intentional, actually
why are Taiwanese people so depressive?
not depressive, just too laid back
"this is good enough"
etc.
i am too but i mean, that's just how it is
I mean is kinda true
If you're in a building that will collapse, then youre fucked already
depends on the strength of the earthquake, the building and your luck
you might just be trapped for a few days
you have like, 5 seconds to get out if the quake is large enough to seriously damage your building
Assuming you fall with the building and the building is not a 10+ story building or something like that
You might be trapped in the crashed building
a few bottles of water and a radio might save your life
are there anti earthquake building standards in taiwan?
