40 Jahre, ein kontrolliertes Atomrisiko?

40 years, a nuclear risk under control?

Large corporations are shopping for underground bunkers that can survive a nuclear blast, and the first adopters are mostly cryptocurrency firms, says @Semafor. The facilities are designed to protect data centers and C-suite execs, and cost tens of millions to build. The pitch? The apocalypse. "The more worries there are in the headline news, the more people look for solutions," Larry Hall, owner of Survival Condo said from his company's bunker in Kansas, a 54,000-square-foot space with a rock wall and hydroponics farm.

Corporations dig deeper: using bunkers to secure data (and their CEOs)

Several large companies are building underground housing for their data centers and executives.

#FACTCHECK:

This program upgrades old #Nuclear Fission #warheads into newer Nuclear Fusion warheads, and generally maintains the current arsenal. It does NOT increase the supply of #NuclearWeapons, and newer Fusion warheads actually have FAR LESS #NuclearFallout than the old ones: this decreases the risk of #civilian exposure to nuclear elements, and #NuclearWinter.

This is an alternative to #Putin attempting to fire a #missile recently which malfunctioned and destroyed the entire launch site.

While nuclear weapons are a dangerous thing to have, and preferably should NEVER be used, #NATO keeps a supply for retaliatory purposes: Russia alone has more nuclear weapons than all of NATO combined.

NATO's nuclear weapons are only usable in specific, retaliatory and existential circumstances, such as a full-scale nuclear first-strike by Putin.

Either way, as having nuclear weapons is neither new nor exclusively #US policy, the claim that it increases the likelihood of #NuclearWar is FALSE.

Russia is seeking to militarily target three Ukrainian nuclear power plants, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has told the United Nations. Putin really needs to google what directions the wind blows over Ukraine. Spoiler: the wind blows towards Russia, douchebag.

@ai6yr @bud_t @tsherrygeo Researched Tecnu after using for an exposure to poison ivy, and found out it was originally invented to remove nuclear fallout dust. Crazy! #tecnu #poisonivy #poisonoak #nuclearfallout https://www.bikemag.com/blog/tecnu-inventor-dr-robert-smith-dies-at-88
