Does the reduction of sea ice has any effect on land ice melting?

Sea ice = floating ice. Its melting does not increase the average sea level. The southern hemisphere has summer right now and it is perfectly normal for an ice to melt during summer.

I would re read that physics books again - a melting floating ice you and the article referring to does NOT increase the average sea level. What is more - the southern hemisphere has summer right now.

That's not nearly enough. The people of Yemen deserve so much better! They need help now, not in 2026. It's outrageous that it has taken this long to raise the money they need.

>Dosis sola facit venenum.
In radiation all dosage is cumulative and no, research has not shown otherwise yet.
>Do you have any education about radiation hazards and how to interpret them? You're acting like an expert yet failing to respond to the points at all.
I have a minor in Nuclear engineering and a minor in physics. So, kind of? I also have a BS in computational mathematics and poly sci, but they're less relevant.
>You're arguing dishonestly and cherrypicking a tiny part instead of responding to the actual point
Lol, you literally said this: >>Tritium occurs naturally, just saying. There's always a tiny amount in your drinking water. It's such a weak beta-emitter, that there's almost no danger from it.
and this
>> ...tritium decay is also far lower energy (and therefore both less penetrating and less damaging) than most other nuclear decay, to the point where it can't even penetrate human skin in the first place.
Really, this is the only point I've been attacking. Tritium is not a safe material, you keep saying it's harmless, and it's not. You don't know how it effects biological systems or the risk of it once ingested or inhaled. Your own paper says, exactly, what I said. Yet, somehow I'm dishonest.
>I'm sick of people who don't know anything trying to act educated but failing to grasp the most basic things.
Same.
>Respond to my individual points please and stop the cherrypicking. It's obvious and dishonest.
I did, you responded by posting a source that agreed with me, and point blank, said your understanding of the bio availability and effects of Tritium were wrong. Again, that is the only point I've been making this whole time.

Australian politicians are so incompetent you can just ask them for state secrets directly and they'll tell you. Hell, they'll brag. It's what comes from decades of blindly bending the knee to foreign policy and investors.

Reply to comment by Timey16 in German minister warns of ‘massive’ danger from Russian hackers | Nancy Faeser says Ukraine war has exacerbated German cybersecurity concerns by misana123
Hi, I'm an IT guy for a local municipality:
We operate FAX machines. Mostly advertisements arrive these days, but also offers for contracts.
The reason why FAX machines were so widely used is because they offer a unique combination of factors. Those factors are:
- They are fast
- They are secure/secret (*)
- They are valid for contracts
(*) Not really, but they were defined as secure/secret during a time when it was illegal to wiretap telephone lines without approval by a judge.
No modern tech offers the same combination. For example E-Mails are transmitted unencrypted most of the times and as we know since the Snowden leaks, everything going over the internet is intercepted and read if it isn't encrypted.
DE-Mail was designed to fix that problem, but since it wasn't widely adopted it is dying a slow death. The Telekom shut their DE-mail service down last year.
One huge chance that might make a difference is the new electronic ID-card. You can use it to file your taxes, and i wouldn't be surprised if way more will happen with it later.

You fucking bet that even though Ukraine doesn't officially have the death penalty, more than one captured saboteur and other traitors were probably just executed on the spot.

Because even in the EU only around 5-6% of animals are held on "farms". There aren't as many animals on such farms, diseases don't spread as easily. However, you cannot satisfy the populations meat consumption "needs" with only these farms.
