Earlier quoted context omitted.

TSMC is extremely prepared for earthquakes. The YouTuber Asionmetery has a good video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNKF21B01NQ Its incredible what they do in terms of accuracy in a place with so much seismic activity.

From what I understand (I used to live in the main city for that), even the vibration from local trains are a factor

wow that is crazy attention to detail it must be so negligible but significant enough for the production

Are fabs knocked offline?

when the entire building shakes you really can't prepare for that

this is the first time i've ever seen this person. how is he received in non youtube audiences? is this fringe level stuff, or is this accepted science? i have a hard time wrapping my head around a planetary alignment with Neptune affecting Earth. I'm not dismissing it, but my knee jerk is this can't be real, yeah?

his track record indicates this is not a random reinforcement but something worth looking into. I also didn't know what this planetary alignment is but there have been papers around it.

All earthquake prediction is fringe science.

(FWIW, predicting a M6+ earthquake isn't that hard--an M6+ earthquake happens on Earth about every 3 days.)
