One of the ions of hydrogen is a proton, but there’s also a proton and one or two neutrons for deuterium and tritium, and anion versions of the 3 isotopes where they absorb an extra electron, mostly within stars.

Sib please get on a fucking bus once in your life. You are not allowed to smoke on them, marijuana or no.

Well no, if you wanted to keep the discussion to marijuana then you should have stuck to actual criticisms of the drug instead of criticising potential consequences of misuse, which can apply to a lot of things. Driving unimpaired also kills innocent people, do you think driving should be banned?

So you’re also arguing alcohol should be banned?

Elves canonically see in a flat plane, which is why they’re able to navigate to Valinor across the straight road, which is west of the grey havens ignoring the world’s curvature.

Sib (as in sibling) is my preferred one.

Actually, on second thoughts, this comment explicitly proves that you’re a reactionary hiding their lack of investigation behind accusations of immaterialism - just by applying your own logic to real world numbers, you’ve gone from a day to half a week. You have no place opining on this subject.

Yeah, you’ll notice that your “massive” 22°F is the difference between direct sunlight and no sunlight. Do you think there’s another sun to take away after the first one, to get rid of even more sunlight and drop the temperature another 22°?
Why don’t you believe that physical materials are capable of holding heat energy? Why did you latch on to atmosphere and ground instead of the biggest energy store on the planet, the ocean (you don’t need to answer that we know it’s because those are the ones I named)? Why do you think that the temperature difference between day and night - sunlight and no sunlight - is the same as the general rate at which energy is lost from the planet? Have you not ever been outside at night to discover the largest part of the temperature drop happens as soon as the sun disappears?

You’re doing a very good job of the typical liberal application of raw, familiar logic to a new situation, but the only part of it you actually understand is that the sun supplies lots of energy, and haven’t made it any further than that.

that article is the peak of liberal honkey reasoning

Every single government will genocide 99.99999999999% of their population

I’m gonna be real, I started thinking about responding to the tiny relevent bit at the start (it’s got a big picture to help you understand the interdependence you’re talking about), but your histrionics about justifying the hypothetical are pretty funny. Like sib nobody’s talking about how humanity would survive in the ridiculous hypothetical, we’re just talking about the physics of heat loss.

The ENTIRE PLANET does not cool by more than a degree from a few clouds you absolute moron. We’re not talking about your local microclimate, we’re talking about the entire world. This is as dumb a response as saying it snowed recently, so global warming isn’t real.

Read the article before trying to be a fucking smartarse. It gives specific numbers for geothermal radiation.

You are also forgetting the atmosphere and ground (and oceans, of course) - It being one huge interconnected energy system is exactly why I’m saying it would take longer. This guy’s calculations reckon we’d lose about 1 degree per 12 hours. January’s global average temperature was around 13°, so that’d be 6 and a half days. July last year it was 17°, so that’d be a whole 8 and a half days. It’s going to be more like a week.

I honestly think you’re forgetting the atmosphere and like, physical ground under our feet. It doesn’t generally drop to 0C overnight unless it’s already pretty close to 0C because of the heat trapped in the atmosphere and emanating from the earth’s core. It’s going to be more like a week for most places.

Surely this isn’t going anywhere - other countries are going to push back against it and the UK isn’t going to try to stop Apple trading here.

You tellin me this one fish lived 24 million years? wild

Interesting, I seem to have the opposite condition - something breaks, then they ask me to look at it and by the time I get there it’s working perfectly again.

If a cat weighed 300 pounds, had the intelligence of a toddler and the morals of a seagull, it would be a dog. It’s just a dog. Seals are exactly sea puppers, people just don’t know what a pupper really is.

Crocodile, shark, pill bug… They’re all creatures that are now famed as “living fossils”. Even looks like a coeleocanth fin in one of the panels.

Use Kelvin then, 314°K is a way bigger number
