A forgotten business? They are pouring a huge effort into it, with ChatGPT and turning it into a leader in the AI space. Hardly forgotten.

Reply to Magnitude 7.2 earthquake strikes Tajikistan, near border with China by Papppi-56

Just looked it up on the USGS site. In no way is this going to even remotely come close to the Turkey death toll. Firsty, it’s now a 6.8 and it’s in a very remote mountainous area. Nowhere near the pop density of southern Turkey.

Rebar inadequate, contractor pocketed the difference. Same as in the Izmit quake.

Taken on a tripod to get the water blur, I have a cheap travel tripod and this was taken with a Sigma DP1. Sigma uses a Foveon sensor, which is unusual in digital photography. I find the sensor is incredibly detailed and works especially well in the yellow to reds, which makes it double good for fall colors.

Molas Pass, bigger lake in distance is Molas Lake. I camped there during covid. such a beautiful area. Hwy 550 doesn’t go to Telluride. There are dirt road passes over to telluride, though.
