YouTuber LGR felt 'numbness at how powerless I was' as his one-of-a-kind retro PC collection took a direct hit from hurricane Helene, but seeing most of the trove survive now has him eager to share it (www.pcgamer.com)

So far, things seem to be prety decent where I'm at in Utah, but we do have the looming risk of "the big one" Earthquake. But to be fair, that has a pretty high chance of causing Yellowstone to erupt, which would probably kill everyone on the planet, so I guess I prefer a quicker death to starvation.

But yeah, Ashville is way in there, no wonder he was surprised.

Yellowstone would only immediately kill people within a certain radius. overall it would be pretty survivable.

Huh, I thought it would be bigger than that, what with how massive it is and how much ash would go up into the sky.

Looks like I would probably survive, but my house wouldn't, and getting out would royally suck because it would wreck the air intake for my car. But I could probably make it out.
