Fascinating that experts in extremism (which Marc is, btw) now see X as their core platform for research.

(For over a decade, you had to delve into small telegram groups and other networks to track what extremists were saying.)

Honestly I’m not sure my dad knows who Mike Tyson is

Just as a refresher since I haven’t been active here: I’m Osariik and I’m into rocks/geology, volcanoes, rock music, metal/metalcore, playing cricket, video games and pretty much anything else cool that I see.

I forgot this place exists, I’ll be honest.

Air pollution could be significant cause of dementia – even for those not predisposed People in areas of high PM2.5 concentrations had higher amounts of amyloid plaques in brain

bear in mind that this is a city who spends $249M of a $730M budget on police who, at least as of last year, were setting all-time lows for arrests and citations.

Numerically satisfying

Fantastic news!

I'm still of the opinion that this band is criminally underrated. They haven't had a single bad (or even mediocre) release, every single one of their songs is fantastic yet they're still so unknown www.youtube.com/watch?v=a60u...

🧪 ⚒️ RÚV now has an English newsfeed for the new eruption north of Grindavík.

Unfortunately, it appears that this eruption will have much more of an impact on the local population than the previous one, with the lava crossing the protective berm that was built earlier. 🧪⚒️

⚒️🧪 Earthquake activity north of Grindavík has picked up again in the last hour. Scientists at the Icelandic Meteorological Office say this could be a sign of another imminent eruption.

If a strategy game has volcanoes in it, I'm about 470% more likely to purchase that game; closer to 4090% more likely if the volcanoes actually impact the game.

Thank you! :)

I have officially completed my bachelor of science degree (majoring in geology)!

Merry Christmas!

the history of Iceland in a nutshell

My favourite Unicode character is the Cyrillic character ꙮ, the multiocular O, which is literally only used in one phrase in one manuscript in the Old Church Slavonic language from the 15th century: "серафими многоꙮчитїй", which means "many-eyed seraphim".

Read this as: DON'T rush to Iceland to see this, even if you're a scientist. The starts of eruptive crises are chaotic & those in charge of protecting people don't need tourists taking resources from locals. People's homes and livelihoods are under threat, so have some humanity & watch a livestream.

Hey, I know this is an old post but I saw it and thought I'd answer. Hoogerbeets is a fraud. None of his methods are based on science, and the reason why he gets so many correct predictions is the sheer number of predictions he puts out. He is not to be trusted.

M5.8 earthquake shakes Mexico City Likely caused by the bending as the subducting plate abruptly steepens

🧪 ⚒️

A M5.8 earthquake occurred a few hours ago southeast of Mexico City. Not much damage, but interesting tectonics: the subducting slab is flat to the SW and bends down steeply to the NE. That bending seems to be capable of causing large, sometimes damaging earthquakes. Read more on our blog!

I spent all of grades K, 2, 3 and 5 in an American school, and parts of 1, 4, 6 and 9.

I spent about 7 months of 9th grade in a California public school. I’ve never heard of Charles Lindbergh and I didn’t learn about Ford in year 9, I learnt about him in my own time
