CO2 Back-Radiation Sensitivity Studies under Laboratory and Field Conditions
Atmospheric and Climate Sciences, 2024, 14, 407-428

>Data from ground measurements indicate that the downward (backward) radiation of the atmosphere shows indeed full saturation of the IR CO2 bands and does not support noticeable additional Thermal Forcing (TF) by increasing CO2 in the lower atmosphere… we can expect full saturation already at current concentrations.

This recent paper gives a good explanation of absorption limits and specifically for absorption limits for CO2, it might be of interest to the overwhelming majority of people who never studied enough physics to be able to run through the absorption limit calculation on their own, this includes pretty much everyone who didn't get a PhD in physics with a strong focus on the propagation of radiation.

Liquid-in-glass thermometers too imprecise to detect global temperature trend since 1850.

Margin of error for average global temp 1900-2010 (3.84°C) is 4.5x larger than claimed warming of 0.86°C.

Global warming shills busted in yet another fraud

>Significant doubts have been cast on the accuracy of global surface temperature results following the discovery that electronic thermometers in Australia have read up to 0.7°C higher than traditional mercury glass units.

Electronic thermometers read up to 0.7 degrees higher than glass ones.
Sometime in the mid-1990s the Australian Bureau of Meteorology replaced their glass thermometers with electronic sensors. They claimed they were carefully verified to match the slow way the old glass thermometers worked — after all, we wouldn’t want to use gizmos that recorded new all-time *Hottest Ever Records* that were actually just one-second gusts of hot air, would we? Our newspapers would be full of meaningless headlines about how Climate Change made us hotter than ever in history, when really it was just a mistaken effect of a new type of thermometer. Imagine that disaster of public policy…

Of course this question is so easily solved. The BoM just needed to keep the two thermometers side by side in the same boxes and record all that data. Then they could release it, showing how well the electronic gadgets mimicked the glass thermometers, and Australians everywhere would feel confident that BoM was the sterling agency they thought it was. Instead Skeptics have been asking for comparison data for nine years and the BoM has refused, hedged, asked exorbitant fees, destroyed data and when the FOI requests came — fought them tooth and nail to stop Australians from seeing what their thermometers recorded.

The spike would show as an anomaly in the data. Which they are then feeding directly into their doomer models to scare everyone into paying more taxes.
it doesn't really matter, the global warming narrative is dead. The west opened its borders without the need for climmigration and so now these warmist doomers are redundant.

The month of November is almost up, which means that anyone who decided to participate in nofap should be starting to form an opinion about if the scientific claims of the nofap advocates are accurate or not.
Is there anyone where who performed the nofap experiment this year?
If so, what do you think the results of your experiment were?
Do they help to prove or disprove the nofap theory?

What going on in that picrel is they start the experiment by assuming the equation is correct and that 3 is the correct answer, they aren't open to considering the legitimacy of the equation or of the answer because they've already accepted those as dogma.

From what I read on this topic it seems to be very complex. All studies I've read agreed that for liver, SF fats are the best, USF (PUFAs) are neutral to bad depending on study and Ethanol is very bad. By combining USF+EtoH you are basically speedrunning ALD. MUFAs doesn't seem to be as bad as PUFAs for your liver. There is also some variation depending on whether certain enzymes are present which is genetic.
The problem with SFs is that they are bad for your cardiovascular system in a way that USFs aren't and alcohol intake also exacerbates cardiovascular disease. If you drink a lot you're fucked either way but the way you're fucked will depend on whether you eat SF UFS.
My main takeaway from all this is don't drink alcohol (duh), don't be a fat fuck so you don't have to eat 3000 kcal a day, eat SF in moderation and avoid PUFAs. If you need more fat that your moderate SF intake doesn't cover, consider MUFAs.

Wrong and wrong. Gaia is an all-sky astrometry mission, a successor to Hipparcos, it was never targeted at anything so specific.
And Gaia data has revealed multiple black holes in binaries, even with only a fraction of the final dataset.

not even in the top ten of problems resulting from full scale nuclear war. popularized by famous jew pothead astronomer carl sagan and you have to assume 100% of nuclear arsenal is detonated at ground level (likelihood of this is 0) before you even start to begin imagining nuclear winter scenarios.
