Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I think they mean it's a 8.0 earthquake and a 80.0 earthquake.
No the richter scale is logarithmic. Adding one point actually multiplies the intensity by 10. (Well, roughly in this case, but it's a lot closer to 9 than to 80)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richter_scale
But 1 million times 10 is… 10 million. You have to multiply it by 1000 to get 1 billion. It’s the difference between an 8 and an 11 on the Richter scale then, no?
Yes.. yes, you are right. Woops
It makes it way more insane doesn’t it? An 11 point earthquake is INSANELY strong.
so imagine adding 72 points
THAT'S SO MUCH WORSE!
