Do you remember that 7.2 a couple years ago? Much closer to Taipei then these Hualien quakes. That felt really sickening to me. The ones yesterday I felt pretty sick for a while too
There were no 7+ magnitude quakes in recent years. [1] The closest is 2016 at 7.1 which took out some undersea internet cables the caused a reduction in spam worldwide of 50%. [2]

alright I checked: this is weird, but can't remember this one being a 6. Anyway, it was 7 on the Taiwan intensity scale. Maybe that's where I got it from?
