As more folks pour into Arc Raiders’ servers to hopefully extract and craft their way to glory, they’re capturing epic victories snatched from the jaws of defeat and sharing them as reminders that even when you think you’re about to lose everything, luck…
Cracks deep in Earth’s crust can stick themselves back together within hours after certain earthquakes, new research suggests.Specifically, these cracks can heal speedily after what geologists call slow slip events. This is when the deformation- and stress-induced movement between two sides of a fault occurs over days, weeks or months, rather than over seconds or, for the largest earthquakes, minutes.Slow slip events are “silent” earthquakes in which the slip happens much more slowly and doesn’t radiate the strong waves that can make regular earthquakes dangerous, said study lead author Amanda Thomas, a professor of geophysics at the University of California,…

Now, activists are using both Fortnite and Grand Theft Auto V roleplay to educate gamers on how to handle an IRL ICE raid.
