It's a very interesting concept, because now in 2015 I've seen more and more things using technology and computers where they shouldn't be used. People seem to not understand that the gimmick feature that needs a computer just adds a billion moving parts (one for each transistor, statement of code, etc) that may fail.

I was in the process of buying a new TV and I couldn't find a good ol' TV, nope, all there was "super awesome smart voice commanded can see the weather TVs"... so I bought one intending to just use it for cable (I still used netflix in my computer) and after a whole damn day of updating firmwares and waiting for it to boot (I miss the CRT days)... some capacitors that were in the backlight circuit blew. Thank you very much Samsung. (Btw another clear example of misusing technology was yesterday's post about trains using GPS for "smart door controls")

Oh also, the scale in your post is more of a Mercali than Richter.

I didn't realise there was an effect-focused earthquake scale, that's definitely more what I meant
