Mega-earthquake... that would be what in magnitude? 10+?

I think 8.0 or 8.5 or something. I don't know. That's what the reporter called it. Clearly a 5.6, 7.2, and a 5.3 in less then a week leads most people to believe something is going on.

definitely felt it here in industry, i was eating in&out outside.

just heard that they downgraded it to a 4.9. this is everything that followed.

I was right under it, about 17 miles away from the epicenter.

I didn't feel it very much due to the fact that I was outside on just regular ground and walking/moving, however, my sisters and mum were inside of the house and they felt it shake quite well. Doesn't help the fact that we also live in a bloody 80 year old wood house sitting on a CONCRETE and BRICK foundation. :D

i wouldn't be smiling if i were you...

this is just bad. i dearly hope its all over. peeps from cali .. keep posting thats its all good... if you stop i will wonder.

btw my idiot cableguy has screwed up and i cant see some channels including CNN. got only BBCWORLD here and the pommies not telling anything bout this quakes.

Mega-earthquakes probably don't even exist, the only place you could create such an earthquake is in one of two situations.

1) A subduction zone, such as the one that was in the December and caused the Tsunami.

2) A asteroid could trigger something akin to a mega-earthquake.

The first is much more probable then the second, and a true mega-earthquake (above the richter scale's limit of 10) would be more likely to happen in the mentioned subduction zone, so if you truly want to see some part of the Western U.S. break away from the mainland, Washington and Oregon (both within range of the Cascadia subduction zone) are much more probable candidates then California. but please do not put faith in my words for this is only what I can remember from what I have read in various areas of the internet.

EDIT: Here you guys go, more likely that Canada, Oregon and Washington will slip into the sea than California. :D

Total global engagement — FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 (official FIFA report) 5 billion people https://theworlddata.com/fifa-...-cup-viewership-statistics/ U.S., Canada, Japan drive vast World Series viewership for Games 1 and 2 In Japan despite a 9 a.m. local start time, Game One averaged 11.8 million viewers on NHK-G https://www.mlb.com/news/2025-...ching-large-global-audience There are also millions of annual viewers of the World Series in Latin America, especially Venezuela and the Domincan Republic due to the large number of players from those countries playing in the Major Leagues.
    • The original word arts were far more awesome! With their own preconfigured fill patterns, 3D layout, etc. I especially loved the ones circled below and still miss them from my primary school years: I frankly use them less these days 'cause the new one isn't as straightforward fine art as what we originally had. Same with the built-in picarts selection.
    • What didn't you understand about that was mainly referring to Google, Microsoft, etc. keeping your passwords. Password Management is a key service of Bitwarden and it's not going anywhere. In any case they do offer export to other Password management services, backup/download of passwords, and the already mentioned on-prem option. I don't agree with the OP to use the free option as it's better to be an actual customer IMO. They don't just don't delete accounts like the big tech companies with no recourse which was the main concern of this article. I was confused if the author was trying to sell this setup? It should be obvious to anyone reading this article this solution is overly complicated and overkill for most users.
    • I got this notification just now in Android: So I went in to disable the "Other" or "Marketing" notifications in Notifications management: But it came through the Now Playing? So if I disable that I no longer get what's Now Playing in Notifications? I'm a paying subscriber, not on the free plan... can they sink any lower?
    • Population especially in high density areas creates more heat and more humidity. This can be noticed in an indoor arena or concert room which heats up when the room or arena fills with people, without air conditoning to cool it down, Watering of lawns creates more humidity as the moisture from the watering rises into the atmosphere, creating a more humid condition. The again, depopulating an arena or room after an event will drop the temperature inside. Desert areas are less humid for a number of reasons, including a lower population density. Tel Aviv has horrible weather, unless you like it hot and humid. Summer days are regularly 90+ F with humidity well over 70%. It is probably not as bad as Mississippi but still it is bad enough.
