Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Seismic activity had intensified overnight and residents of Grindavik were evacuated at about 3am (0300 GMT) on Sunday, the Icelandic public broadcaster RUV reported.

“A crack has opened up on both sides of the dikes that have begun to be built north of Grindavik,” the MetOffice wrote.

Live images showed jets of glowing orange lava spewing up against the dark winter sky.

Grindavik, a small fishing village of about 4,000 people, was evacuated as a precaution on 11 November.

Since then, residents have been allowed to return for brief periods, before an evacuation was again ordered overnight.

Iceland is home to 33 active volcano systems, the highest number in Europe.
