Andre C.<a href="https://norden.social/@SheDrivesMobility" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@SheDrivesMobility</a> mich hat in dem Zusammenhang interessiert, wie groß der Unterschied zwischen WoMo-Reisen und Fliegen ist <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/doTheMath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#doTheMath</a>Schauen wir dazu z.B. auf die CO2 Emissionen:Im Wohnmobil (Diesel mit zwei Personen ) kommt man auf etwa 200 Gramm CO2 pro Personenkilometer (g CO²/Pkm), beim Fliegen sind die Emissionen mit 300 g CO²/Pkm etwa anderthalb mal so hoch. Zum Vergleich: Bei Zugreisen liegt dieser Wert bei 15 - 40 g CO² / Pkm. (1/2)

Eudaimon ꙮ"Energy transition aspirations are similar. The goal is powering modernity, not addressing the sixth mass extinction. Sure, it could mitigate the CO2 threat (to modernity), but why does the fox care when its decline ultimately traces primarily to things like deforestation, habitat fragmentation, agricultural runoff, pollution, pesticides, mining, manufacturing, or in short: modernity.

Boris Kretzinger"Can Atari K-O 3DO?" Well, we know the answer to that. But in December 1993, that was indeed a good question asked in this headline inside of Popular Science. At that time, it's wasn't already clear just how limited the Jaguar's launch would turn out to be, and even after that, the Jag sold a bit better than the 3DO for some months - which isn't much, still 😅. Also, this little bit was placed in an article about the 3DO, and you gotta agree that this picture of their crew is great! So celebrate the Jaguar's 30th anniversary, enjoy the good and mediocre games, heck, maybe even some of the not-so-good ones. And remember that the Jag had a lot of potential and did not start out as a flop. If you want to read more about its history, you might like to look at my book Clipped Claws. It's free.

It’s very similar to telling someone they’re the villan, an adolescent that they don’t know what they’re talking about, an elder that they don’t know what’s good for them, or a mentally impaired person that they are nuts. How does that usually work out? After all this time, we still haven’t figured out how to do these things—not in one shot, certainly. It’s one thing to convince someone that their notions about the pangolin are entirely wrong. Most people have little knowledge or personal stake in the ways of the pangolin. But people immersed in modernity are going to have strong opinions, feeling that they know a thing or two about it. In addition, it is the only thing they’ve ever known. Saying that modernity is a temporary fireworks show is like saying: all you have ever known is an illusion—not as “real” or permanent as you have come to believe. Yet, modernity is what we see out the window.
