Been eating paint chips all my life for this moment
What is that from?
Waterworld
Waterworld, when the Exxon Valdez ignites.
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 gross negligence for implementing it. It’s killed people, when antivaxxers say they “did their own research”, there’s a good chance it was a Google featured snippet reinforcing their claim.
Sorry, you’re not wrong about the misinformation and how removal from context can change the meaning of the he snippet. This is just my favourite.
This is true.
But this screenshot is old if even real. I googled it and the snippet was much more realistic and detailed.
More to your point::
One snippet I recently saw that was wrong was the result for ‘population of Gaza.’ It showed the population of Gaza city, which is tiny fraction of Gaza.
It’s going to be more and more unreliable as the results it’s snipping from are increasingly machine-generated.
Just stay inside a refrigerator and you will be OK 👍
What the fuck? I thought that was some clever photoshop shit until I started reading the comments
Jumped the shark or rode the refrigerator.

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
Yes, but what is the distance from the blast to perfectly cook a frozen pizza?
Tony?
Frankie Delicissio? I hear he’s datin your sister.
Tony Pizza!
For the uninformed:
Ayy, from Fiddler on the Roof?
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 airfry and oven instructions there was instructions for “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.
Pretty sure this isn’t real guys. There’s no “Do not thaw pizza” clause.
Nah, the uv light wipes out any bacterial concerns
Damn, my nuclear bomb is only 8 kiloton and I never know how to convert.
This sounds like a question for Randall Munroe.
Very much so
oh no, I only have 2 feet
Same, guess we’ll die.
I’ll taking both of your feet tqvm.
NOoooooooo
How many feet do you have now, enough to be safe from a nuclear blast?
Still 3 feet short, sadly
I mean, maybe if it’s a really, really small nuclear explosion
Nah. There are now three sets of imperial units: UK, US, and U235.
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
The burns and your body turning into soup from radiation is the real terrible part.
slush
Well, getting instantly vaporized is safer than getting hit by debris or getting all types of cancer at once.
You and I define “safer” differently.
If you’re vaporized, bits of you have no chance of hurting anyone else like they could if you were hit by debris and simply exploded into chunks.
Call me selfish, but I’m worrying more about what’s safe for me.
Also, If I’m at a distance where I’m exploded into chunks, then the people who could be hurt by those chunks are likely to not be doing so great themselves either.
Not true! Shockwaves could carry parts for miles!
…Oh, I see what you mean.
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.
Thanks ChatGPT
Or hide in a fridge.
You wouldn’t suffer any long term effects from the blast at that distance.
