I was mentioning how the NOSA images get doctored

fart enough

I mean gair enough

And by 'doctored' I mean 'putting a fake title for the image underneath'

FAIR ENOUGH XD

ahhh

I did eet

<:pepe_hang:460603218766987298>

People were using the same images to claim that these were 'wave graphs' showing all the 'radioactive water' being swept from Japan over the the Western seaboard

ahhh

I remember that

here we go

Fuck

lel

You know what? No

I ain't deleting it

The second one has slightly higher detail if you look closely enough

...just look

I mean it's also a H I G H Q U A L I T Y P N G

We both got it from Snopes

But I went to Google images

It's a pity there aren't more people to try and argue against the two identical images.

That could've been pretty entertaining.

They probably aren't actually identicle

XD

Mine is a png

Proof

The pixel... over there!

One is 0xFFFFFF and that SAME pixel on the other image is 0xFFFFFE!

It's CLEARLY DIFFERENT! XD

here's something you might enjoy, then

https://www.reddit.com/r/theydidthemath/comments/6uptk2/request_fukushima_reportedly_dumping_300_tons_of/

```One of the main points they kept being alarmed about was that Fukushima was dumping 300 US tons of radwater into the PO every day.

After a bit of digging around, it would seem that the Pacific Ocean contains roughly 638,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg of water. After converting that to US tons and rounding down to zero, I got about 703,000,000,000,000,000 tons.```

```Regardless, does this mean that it would take over two quadrillion days for the entire tonnage of the Pacific Ocean to be replaced with water that has passed through the reactor?

In which case, all of the red flags I had at the very beginning seem somewhat justified, and these people are using the "300 tons per day" to sound scary, because 300 tons seems like a lot to Joe Average```

Spooky Nuclear

```If they are cycling water through the waste cooling pools at Fukushima at a total rate of 272 tonnes per day (which comes down to about 3.15 litres per second so that's actually a reasonable figure at least), it would take about 2.38e15 days to cycle the entire volume of the Pacific Ocean at that speed. This is about 6.516e12 years... or 6,516 billion years.

Considering the age of the universe is about 13.7 billion years, the age of Earth about 4.5 billion years, and Earth probably staying habitable for only 500 million years or so (give or take some millions of years) from now, I would say there is no reason to worry about the entire Pacific ocean getting "cycled through" Fukushima plant.```

six thousand billion years 🤣

It's not a bad read on the reddit

There is one thing I remind myself of.
