History

The earliest recorded eruption of Fukutoku-Okanoba in 1904 formed an ephemeral island named Shin-Iwo-jima (New Sulfur Island). Other ephemeral islands have also formed, the most recent of which formed in 1986.[2] The most recent eruption of Fukutoku-Okanoba was in 2010, when the Japanese coast guard spotted steam rising one kilometer above the ocean and water discoloration of the surrounding area.[1]

gollark: `multishell` manages its coroutines internally, and you can't really touch them in a useful way.
gollark: It uses `parallel` as its top level event loop thing to run rednet.run and shell at the same time, but you can't add your own stuff to that.
gollark: I think a major problem with CraftOS is that it's not designed very extensibly, to be honest.
gollark: I should probably readd Polychoron's event preprocessor thing.
gollark: Some bits of the architecture are not great, but it's easy to run your own stuff on top of it.
