LLNL - The True Story -

Bringing this topic back. Musk is about to give amnesty on band  correction: banned) twitter people. That means we will (be) in for an onslaught of fake information and violence. If we cannot shut down twitter can the labs at least use science and tech to combat fake information? This could be more important than any possible nuclear war.

As near as I can tell their numbers are off by a factor of 100 to 1000 What is odd is they even mention " after the 1783 Laki eruption in Iceland1 or the 1815 Tambora eruption in Indonesia2,3' They could have considered Krakatoa as well. All these events are like 100-1000 times more ash than Pakistan India war. I cannot for the life of me figure out wow they get 5–47 Tg of soot, which would most likely be less than 16 by their own numbers. I do not think these soot numbers are even correct since they comparing them to volcanos. None of their numbers make any sense to me if you do some simple back of the envelope calculations in comparison to past volcanic events. They also do the usual thing and assume the nukes are dropped right on top of the most populated cities where they would mostly be us...

Charles Richard, the commander of US Strategic command. “The big one is coming. And it isn’t going to be very long before we’re going to get tested in ways that we haven’t been tested [in] a long time.” Richard’s warning came after the US released its new Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), which reaffirms that the US doctrine allows for the first use of nuclear weapons. The review says that the purpose of the US nuclear arsenal is to “deter strategic attacks, assure allies and partners, and achieve US objectives if deterrence fails.”
