Nukeometer

Get ready to hide under your desks, kiddies. It's seems we aren't out of the irradiated water yet.

Tell The Nukeometer where you live and it will tell you how many loaded guns you have pointed at your pretty little DNA strands.

I think I'm cancelling any further TNL Chicago meets.

Exact same results for Columbus Ohio. I'm guessing it'll be about the same for most of the continental US.

Nope. The coasts are safer.

Aren't there a lot of warheads in Nebraska, where shidoshi's from?

not really. The numbers are down because of nukes from the us on the coasts.

Ok, so it's in the 6000's if you're on or near the coast and in the 8000's for everyone else.

You're fucked no matter where you live.

Cow, your failure to capitalize "U.S." has been reported to Homeland Security.

Crofton residents beware! The sheer number of nukes that can come from submarines is kinda scary considering it's fairly close to the country's largest estuary and the Atlantic Ocean.

Do we have to add all that up?

Don't forget electromagnetic pulses, which can wipe out TNL access for a large area. Remember Escape from L.A.?

In other Nuke related news, the Doomsday Clock is at 5 minutes to Midnight.

In three minutes, it'll be time to kill the unborn in the womb. Whoopee!

Nick was about to get Iron Maiden rep. but he instilled a system that is broken and forces me to spread around rep before I can give it to him. By the time I do that, I'll have forgotten all about repping him.
SO THERE NICK! STARE AT YOUR REP AND KNOW THAT IT COULDA BEEN +1!

Plus...he's early. It's 2 minutes. Not 3.

Anyway, onto happier thoughts...

9011 nuclear warheads
Are within range of
Calgary, Canada

And three minutes from five minutes leaves how many?

he's truly earned his screen name today.

I didn't want to be mean and say it.

OK reading comprehension for the loss apparently.

You win this time Nick. But I'll be back!

Interesting site.

The coasts may be safer but if Russia was ever to launch it's entire arsenal the only places being remotely safe would be areas far from the cities in the middle of nowhere. I don't think the nuclear apocalypse would ever destroy all human life but it would certainly fuck it up.

2892 nuclear warheads are within range of Sydney, Australia

So Russia has a fuck load of Subs around here?

certain Russian missile types can deploy up to 10 warheads per missile, and the subs which fire them can carry 20 missiles, so 200 warheads. But there aren't many of those subs sailing any more, so that number is iffy, even if they are just counting theoretically.

A lot of the ICBMs are still deployed but the MIRVs (the multi-warhead missiles) should no longer be active because of a previous arms reduction. Still, I believe their ICBM deployment is somewhere around 1,000?

Oh I'm not saying they don't have any ICBMs any more, just that I find the amount that would be submarine launched is overly high. Russia is apparently only operating 3 Typhoon class subs due to operating costs, and they are the ones that carry the most warheads. So that's 600 warheads. There are 4 additional retired Typhoons, so theoretically that's 800 more warheads, so 1400 if everything was returned to coldwar status.

There are of course other sub classes in the Russian Navy, so 1000 warheads is very realistic, but nearly 3000 is extreme. There is no way they have that many subs deployed, which was Detour's original comment.

OMG, FRANCE!

Funny thing is, those nukes from France would probably be more than enough to completely cripple this or any other country.

Wait, that ridiculous doomsday clock is a real thing? I thought Alan Moore made it up.

How soon they forget.
