For some years now, I have seen this graph go around on social media. I think it's a powerful image, because it shows us so clearly that it is happening in our lifetime and under our watch.

But when I use it in my work, I always add the disclaimer the the graph does not show when it was made.

Because that is a problem: the graph might show us that if you are currently 30 years old, 50% of all the CO2 that has been emitted since 1751 has been emitted in your lifetime. But that percentage changes over time.

By now, for people who are currently 30, the percentage will be higher, simply because the annual emissions have gone up since the graph was made.

So I made a new version of the graph, the interactive version of which you can find here: http://mishathings.org:8050/

I wrote a post about this: https://mishathings.org/2024-08-12-how-much-co2-has-been-emitted-in-my-lifetime.html

Heeft iemand van jullie ervaring met het kijken van video's op NOS.nl in het buitenland? Ik betaal me blauw aan Expressvpn, maar geen enkele Nederlandse server wordt geaccepteerd door NOS.

Dit is heel belangrijk voor me, want ik wil graag de video zien van dit artikel: https://nos.nl/artikel/2533363-olympisch-comite-australie-hekelt-pesten-van-breakdancer

I love how I can customize my PC/VPS (Linux), and I feel truly at home. I hate smartphones (iPhone and Android). I hate it how limited I am in configuring them, and it's a PITA to make sure it all syncs with my main computer.

Why isn't it much more common to just use our phones as little windows/gateways to our actual computers? Using something like VCN? Internet speeds should be fast enough?

We could even build a little interface that makes it easier to navigate?

I was trying to link to one of these specific comments, when I found out that the one next to it has the same url. Is this supposed to happen? https://mander.xyz/comment/717587

On the web version of Lemmy I can choose different ways of sorting comments, but in Jerboa there are no options for this?
