You wouldn’t suffer any long term effects from the blast at that distance.
You may want to wear sunglasses though

You either want to be close enough for instant death or far enough to be mostly unaffected. The middle ground where you die slowly from cancer or get crushed by debris or something would suck
YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH@infosec.pub 1 year ago
The burns and your body turning into soup from radiation is the real terrible part.
GladiusB@lemmy.world 1 year ago

InfiniWheel@lemmy.one 1 year ago
Well, getting instantly vaporized is safer than getting hit by debris or getting all types of cancer at once.
clb92@feddit.dk 1 year ago
You and I define “safer” differently.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 year ago
If you’re vaporized, bits of you have no chance of hurting anyone else.
vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
you have to stay 9 feet away as the shockwave expands. That’s the trick
PopcornTin@lemmy.world 1 year ago
The shockwave will help keep you safe by moving you another 500 away from the epicenter.
Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 year ago
In many different directions.
HopFlop@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
Would that actual save you? Because, I thought the radiation also kills peoples far outside of the shockwave range…
blusterydayve26@midwest.social 1 year ago
That’s the thing: people wouldn’t survive that. The only thing that could survive it is some sort of glassified sand immediately beneath the explosion. So sand dgaf, I guess?

Google’s featured snippet thing is not only a bad feature, it’s actively causing harm. It’s extremely unreliable, but people who aren’t tech literate, which is most people, think “well it’s Google, so it must be right.” Sometimes it’s obviously wrong in a funny way, but more often, it’s doing something like parroting dangerous medical misinformation. To make things worse, it’s very likely to answer a question, which is the search form preferred by the technologically illiterate, with a yes. I would go so far as to say they should be sued for criminal negligence for implementing it.

It’s going to be more and more unreliable as the results it’s snipping from are increasingly machine-generated.
ImFresh3x@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
This is true.
But this screenshot is old if even real. I googled it and the snippet was much more realistic and detailed.
DaCrazyJamez@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Yes, but what is the distance from the blast to perfectly cook a frozen pizza?
MeatPilot@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Sometimes you can find instructions for different ways to cook a pizza on the back of the box. For example I checked mine and underneath airfrier instructions there were “nuclear blast”…
Nuclear Blast
Remove pizza from all packaging and shrink wrap. Be sure to remove and discard the cardboard tray.
Place pizza on metal baking tray within a clear path of the blast source. Do not use glass cookware as it might shatter.
About 5 miles out from the blast source. Find a sturdy structure, like a rock deeply embedded into the ground.
Place pizza on the tray and tilt tray to a 45 degree angle on the rock. Angling toward the blast to evenly cook.
Bake for 5secs for 15 kiloton yield atomic bombs or until pizza is golden brown. Grab pizza and run to shelter before the shockwave hits. If the shockwave hits your pizza it will disintegrate.
All atomic bombs cook differently, so be sure to keep an eye on your pizza as it cooks. Pizza is done when the cheese is melted and edges are golden brown.
AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Damn, my nuclear bomb is only 8 kiloton and I never know how to convert.
GreenSkree@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Pretty sure this isn’t real guys. There’s no “Do not thaw pizza” clause.

Artifical Idiot still fits. The question is, why we invent an artifical idiot having too much of the real ones.

I was told that when you see a nuclear explosion then you should carefully observe it because you’ll never see anything like it again in your life.

Sarah Connor already told us how to prepare:
“Anybody not wearing two million sunblock is gonna have a real bad day”
Contramuffin@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Well for what it’s worth, it didn’t specify that it’s 9 feet from the blast center. If we define the blast by its radius of safety, then staying that distance plus 9 feet will, in fact, keep you safe
init@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
I mean, maybe if it’s a really, really small nuclear explosion

Wait, does it have to be exactly 9 feet?
The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 1 year ago
Of course. An inch in either direction would be extremely dangerous.
MxM111@kbin.social 1 year ago
No. The second option is 9.31 feet.
MxM111@kbin.social 1 year ago
Ok, 9 feet and 3.72 inches.
Kase@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’m gonna need that in feet and inches my friend. This ain’t the metric system, and I don’t feel like doing math :/

It got confused by all the American measuring units. Probably meant 9 chinchillas.

Everything’s getting so complicated these days, they even added a fourth step: Stop, drop, Atoll, Atone.
