  • At the start of COVID, I was in Hanoi, but wanted to go to India before going home (it was super cheap). Before that, 2 things had happened:

    1. The stupid airline blocked the money (in the credit card) for our flight back and on top also transferred it, which left me without money in Vietnam. Super big pile of shit already.
    2. Due to COVID there was zero chance of reaching anyone for support. It took, at the end, another week when we where back for that money to be unblocked.

    Then something else happened: They didn't let us on our flight to India (and thus to our flight home). Despite the Indian government saying no restrictions untill 2 days later. I had the website if the Indian ministry right there to show them. (guess how long it took to get that money back, despite the person saying they refund right now: about a year!)

    So now we were stuck in Hanoi, without money for a flight back. So I had to call my family for credit card details to pay for a flight. There was essentially no other option. I don't plan to have 3x the amount of money "just in case". I don't travel much, so I assume parts of that are not too rare.

  • Big oil quietly walks back on climate pledges as global heat records tumble
  • Why do you think pyrolyzing random plastic waste generates biochar?

    It would also never be carbon negative, since it is from oil. Best case is neutral, but some carbon is burned off in the process.

    Same for concrete, it is not suddenly carbon negative.

  • ‘I’ve never seen heat this bad. It’s not normal’: Italy struggles as temperature tops 40C 118f
  • The last 20 years saw increased in emissions, but not the the way you claim. see this chart 1990 22 billion t CO2 2003 27.7 billion t CO2 2023 35? 36? Billion t CO2

    Even more importantly you can check how the shares of emissions change: Here on this page. 20 years ago the regional emission shares were essentially the same. 30 years ago too. Pretty much only China got really bigger, EU and USA are fairly constant in that time, even tho they moved things like steel production to China.

  • You are actually incorrect. Of course there are massive spikes like when a meteor hits or a super volcano erupts. But A that is not relevant. And B records can not show this, they don't have the chronological resolution to do that. Kind of the same way you can not measure the growth of hair over one day with a ruler, it is not possible. But over dozens of days it is possible. But how could you then tell if the hair grew much at one day and little on others? Your can't.

  • Aita for not constantly indulging my bag gremlin cat?
  • Sounds like an abusive relationship. Constantly demanding things is a huge red flag. She even still you from doing basic things like dishes for her own needs, super red flag. Maybe talk to her about it, if she does not reconsider her behavior you should leave here while your can. The abusive behavior will only get worse. One day you will wake up and she will be right in your face.
