Right now SW is making me sad because it is turning more and more into a cesspool.

Your about 6 months behind me here. Give it up, you'll feel better, and be able to laugh when someone cross posts the insanity.

I'm not actually on it anymore. Kind of gave it up when I came onto ML about 5 months ago.

It's kinda funny to me... Here at ML, we have probably the broadest skillset of any IT forum out there... Since I've been here, I haven't posted on SW near as much either. I only log in every day or two to answer the stupid questions I get in email, lol.

Then you're doing better than me. I rarely visit SW anymore, unless I have to. I feel like I graduated to the big boy party around here. Digging deep into subjects and technical matters. Just felt that SW was a mile wide and an inch deep in technical content.

I am rarely on forums posting much anymore, mainly reading, lots of projects going on.

I'm still over there in the TP list. Ha ha, just realized that it is a TP list. Goes with with the WC.

Yes
Aren't those supposed to be more destructive than the nukes the USA used in WWII? Less radiation, but still.

Not that I'm aware of. They are still conventional, although very powerful. The issue I see here is that this is an airbust bomb against a cave. It's not really what it was designed for. I guess show of force?

Really, really close in total yield. Hiroshima was the smaller of the two dropped. The MOAB is still smaller. The FOAB that Russia has should be larger than Nagasaki significantly, even though it is still conventional.

That is the only thing I can think of, but it doesn't really seem effective if your "shock and awe" doesn't really do anything than shake the ground.

FOAB
I thought the FOAB was only 44-50 tons of TNT. The little boy that was dropped on Nagasaki I believe was 15 Kilotons.
