How dense would the atmosphere need to be to result in a cataclysmic chain reaction during a nuclear explosion?

Famously, Oppenheimer and co worked out how close a nuclear bomb test would be to causing a chain reaction of nitrogen fusion in the atmosphere. They made a lot of worst-case-scenario assumptions and still came to the conclusion that no, a nuclear bomb test wouldn’t scour the surface of the world....

i think the idea is that the part that already fused creates a blast wave that could create the conditions, including preassure required for more fusion. i have no idea if it's possible though.

    it's basically the furthest you can go before it's a monster truck

    Does it have onboard graphics? It will be hard without that.
    If it has, you can make a vintage arcade machine, but with multiple games. You could, for example, run linux with OpenTyrian on it, which is one of my favorite games. Xgalaga++ and a lot of old games with DOS emulation should also be possible. You can strip down the OS, so only the barest minimum runs; should save some RAM and CPU.

    the very christian guy sounds like he's trying to cover something up. may be closeted gay with an affair with a migrant or so idk. he's preemptively telling you his cover story, so when the truth reaches you, you'll be like "very Christian racist guy would never".

    the other racist ones could be of the sort "if i don't get disputed, they are silently agreeing". you have multiple options to deal with that. for example, telling HR, who may be interested in protecting the company from a racist image, or you could mention to coworkers, you suspect they are racist. both could lead to them leaving the company. speaking from personal experience, but i'm in EU.

    Depending on how much calcium is in your water, they can calcify if not being moved for a long time. Some electric ones periodically go all the way in both directions to make sure that doesn’t happen. It is however very rare this happens. Usually you can leave them off for summer without problems.

    AFAIK you can allow it in the sudoers file to not need a password, if you keep the sudo.

    idk how KDE autostarts, tho.

    Knights among toner cartridges ( infosec.pub )

    (Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse. -William Strunk Jr. (The Elements of Style)

    i don’t think you need to be a paid member to use the finished product. membership is for having a say in what will be changed.

    but other people read them too and didn’t go absolutely nuts

    That also may give them votes. They basically become their own bosses. Has helped a lot of companies.

    Maybe it would be better to have people pipe their mails into a rotated log dir, so you only get critical errors.
