remembering that one time the whole state of Hawaii got a government message telling them nukes were on the way and that the message wasn't a drill
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_Hawaii_false_missile_alert
I hate it when that happens!
This is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time
The shitty interface for their statewide alert system was so funny
God tier UI
it cracks me up when i have to go to a website that is based in japan and its like this not because they never updated this but because they prefer it this way
Holy shit
I had friends and family members sit around and wait to die because they were convinced that taking cover was pointless cold war propaganda. North Korean nuclear weapons would not have wiped out the whole island, only a few square miles, and they all could have gone blind, been hit by gamma radiation, or had rocks go through them like bullets
Nuclear weapons go from instantly vaporizing you at one range, to being a warm breeze at another range! There is a middle ground!
