The big "FU and The big "ugly" is converging soon. It's not going to be pretty! I live for the day when Junker is wearing egg on has horrible looking face and the rest of the Nzai scum of his ilk.

Please Doc, you are not allowed to imagine or suggest the truth in here, never mind tell it. smegster had a hissy fit when I told him which Nazis were the founding fathers of the EU and went on to suggest I was an employee of the Riussians

"1943, Nazis Joachim von Ribbentrop and Cecil von Renthe-Fink proposed the creation of a "European confederacy" a "New Order" on the continent"

"
NATO has ensured peace in Europe and not the EU. EU's fascist management style and disasterous immigration policy has fostered the rise of the far right and will bring about civil unrest in Europe.
On the founding of the EU:-
Walter Funk
Hans Josef Globke
Paul Henri Spaak
Prince Bernhard
Theodor Heuss
Kurt Kiesinger
Walter Hallstein
Alfred Toepfer
Alcide De Gasperi
What have they all in common? They were all founding fathers of the EU
And a little less know interesting fact, all were Nazi, SS, Fascist members or collaborators,"

I have tried my Peking / Confit de Canard fusion. It's good . Firstly make a marinade mix of finely chopped ginger, garlic, Chinese five spice, honey, soy sauce. Loosen the skin of the duck legs and rub the marinade onto the meat underneath, careful not to rip the skin. Rub the marinade all over the skin too. Leave overnight in the fridge. Then place in a dish with some rice wine and star anise, cover and slow cook in the oven for a couple of hours, fairly low to medium heat. Uncover for the last half an hour to dry the duck legs a bit before dropping them into a deep fat fryer for a few minutes to crisp. The fat fryer should be fairly low heat as well, about 130-150 degrees, otherwise you will burn the duck.

I served it on a bed of potato dauphinoise with a red wine and juniper berry jus and some lightly steamed tenderstem broccoli, with my favourite red, St. Émilion.

French cuisine does not really make use of spices (not too successful in their Empire building), so I think a fusion works well.

{quote} I would go with the previous assumption rather than the latter, reason is it is not implausible to assume that technology hasn't reached its zenith when developing such destructive devices. Lets be clear though it is not NK, it is China who has been developing and providing such technologies to NK.
Yep, and I am quite surprised that the world has not responded to this. No way a country like NK gets a hydrogen bomb that fast. China and/or Russia would had to have helped them.

The instructions were probably all on Wikipedia

It is not hard to make an H-bomb. All you need is a regular A-bomb and pack heavy hydrogen into the casement. Maybe they can use heavy-water, I'm not sure if the Oxygen would interfere with the rate-of-rise of the reaction. The clever part was down to the guy who first postulated the attempt. Having demonstrated the H-bomb others can easily follow.

News just in from Tampa - despite significant looting, it has emerged that no work boots were stolen. However there are no Nikes to be found for 10 blocks from the centre and there are still plenty of Father's Day cards on the shelves. For the sensitive snowflakes in here this is meant to be a joke

In the FF news threads at the moment is a discussion on the NK atomic technology March From it I have extracted this interesting table, which raises a couple of questions. Either: my understanding of the magnitude of the Hiroshima bomb is somewhat larger than reality (entirely possible), or the quoted numbers are massaged to make them look small compared to the claims of other powers' big bombs (equally likely). In any event we can see that the current size of any explosions is at least an order of magnitude bigger than devices that have actually...
I think the last one is being extremely over estimated.

Ok, my memory had not let me down. The dubious aspect is that the information has indeed come from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_Project). Therein the size of the two bombs dropped in 1945 are reported as 13kt and 21kt. Whilst it is difficult to know the truth, I would tend to believe the measurements from the calibrated bang produced at the Trinity explosion .

For the sake of completeness, the USA tested (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermonuclear_weapon) a 10.4-megaton device in 1952, and later in 1954 a 15-megaton device. Thereafter efforts were re-directed to making warheads that are significantly smaller. At the arrival of Polaris (you need to be old...) the delivered device was down to 18-inches diameter and a weight of 320kg.

The British managed to generate a 3-megaton explosion, along the way they damaged a load of their own aircraft when one of the devices under test unexpectedly performed much better than expected.

In 1961 the Russians set off a 50-megaton device with almost all its explosive power coming from fusion material.

Everybody seems to have stopped testing. 50-megatons is a devastatingly huge device. So I hope that fat bastard has not got one, nor anything like it. As I wrote before, you don't need to be too accurate with the delivery system when that kind of device is being delivered.

The only way I can see that the Norks achieving that level is with outside help (which is most likely what is happening anyway). Almost all information to make a nuclear device is readily available. The technical/engineering ability is what is needed. The US, Britain, and Russia had access to many minds, have no clue what the Norks have access to other than Iran and China and possibly Russia, If Russia the learning curve gets flat real fast.

Lookup Trinity on wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_(nuclear_test)) and then follow the links to the various test phases and you can see the US was busy.

Trump talks to the Dems to try and get the do nothing Reps to do something. But they are too stupid to take the hint and keep acting like Dems themselves. Ther's a reason the Republican party is called the stupid party and the results (lack of) that we have seen from them is proof. They have the House, Senate, and Presidency and could pass legislation that would keep the Dems a minority party for a couple generations and they f*ck it up and step on their d*cks. Dumb ass fools.
