I’m not encouraging anything. If someone would show the people who report like this a gesture that is likened to a punch in the face, I might not stop them.

So that’s about 13,000 homo sapiens mothers?

As far as I know valves were shut quickly. The big leak was a result of remaining gas (under pressure?) between the valves that could escape. It was a lot, as the pipes run for 100s of km under the sea, so even with valves shut there was just a lot gas in the pipe.

Uh, I’ve actually seen it. It’s located in Cambodia in the Ta Prom temple (also called Tomb Raider Temple, because they filmed parts of the movie there). It’s a beautiful temple just a couple of km East of Angkor Wat.

I’ve heard that archeologists believe it depicts a water buffalo with some leaves in the background.

Until today water buffalos are being held as work animals to carry stuff, pull weagons and plow fields.

I also thought about wet bulb and checked the humidity in Delhi, which seems to be just 7 % or so. According to wet bulb calculators that’s still good, like around 23 °C wet bulb.

Interestingly the wet bulb temperature calculators that I tried only work until 50 °C, so that was what I put in.

At 50 °C you need about 35 % humidity to get to 35 °C wet bulb.

Regarding your second point: If I’m not mistaken, the hottest month in the region is around May. The temperature is influenced by monsoons, and although the sun peaks higher in summer, it is generally also more cloudy and rain cools of the surface. That’s why usually temperatures peak just before rain season.

It is far from over.

We are currently doing the easy part of dropping emmissions. We have not yet peaked, globally speaking. Then we need to get to zero.

The only possible pathway now is overshoot and return. Which means we depend on carbon removal in a big style, in whatever form that will be.

It also means we will go temporarily over 2 °C. That is a critical number where several tipping points could be reached.

Pretty much the hardship has just begun. Now we need to stop emitting completely, somehow in the same time start to remove atmospheric CO² and hope that while we will be over 2 °C that no crucial tipping points will be reached.

Good read!

It did not mention the nuclear bombs that have been lost somewhere.

I think not yet. Where I live we had a few cases last year. As I understood the virus jumps rarely to humans for example by unclean cooking habits but doesn’t jump from human to human yet.

I want to know this as well. This is the only reason why I often switch between browser feddit and Boost.

Mike Patton has the most versatile voice and music styles from all artists I know. In this song he sounds a little like Axl Rose. In others he growls the wildest metal and after that he sings operetta.

These diverse genre styles mixed with an incredible tone range owned by a hard working dude, singing with many bands and at the same time not being afraid of testing borders and being experimental, is something very unique.

I actually think Mike Patton’s work is underrated.

Hugh Thompson Jr.

During the massacre, Thompson and his Hiller OH-23 Raven crew, Glenn Andreotta and Lawrence Colburn, stopped a number of killings by threatening and blocking American officers and enlisted soldiers of Company C, 1st Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, 11th Brigade, 23rd Infantry Division. Additionally, Thompson and his crew saved a number of Vietnamese civilians by personally escorting them away from advancing United States Army ground units and assuring their evacuation by air. Thompson reported the atrocities by radio several times while at Sơn Mỹ. Although these reports reached Task Force Barker operational headquarters, nothing was done to stop the massacre. After evacuating a child to a Quảng Ngãi hospital, Thompson angrily reported to his superiors at Task Force Barker headquarters that a massacre was occurring at Sơn Mỹ. Immediately following Thompson’s report, Lieutenant Colonel Frank A. Barker ordered all ground units in Sơn Mỹ to cease search and destroy operations in the village.

In 1970, Thompson testified against those responsible for the Mỹ Lai Massacre. Twenty-six officers and enlisted soldiers, including William Calley and Ernest Medina, were charged with criminal offenses, but all were either acquitted or pardoned. Thompson was condemned and ostracized by many individuals in the United States military and government, as well as the public, for his role in the investigations and trials concerning the Mỹ Lai massacre. As a direct result of what he experienced, Thompson experienced posttraumatic stress disorder, alcoholism, divorce, and severe nightmare disorder. Despite the adversity he faced, he remained in the United States Army until November 1, 1983, then continued to make a living as a helicopter pilot in the Southeastern United States.

The interesting question is now: can you reel 'em in?

Looks more like a dildo shooting gun to me.

I was thinking:

“Hey boss, got the mine setup, should I do camouflage?”

“Nah, we’re low on explosives and tools. Throw on some tin roofs and let the government help us blast mine”

The exercise […] will include Cambodian, Lao, Malaysian, Thai and Vietnamese forces.
