How much CO2 has been emitted in my lifetime?

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

NOS.nl kijken in het buitenland met VPN

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

Use VPS/PC on phone

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?

How does Jerboa sort comments?

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

Crappy icon on Android

Does anyone recognize this issue (see image)? 

Just checking: am I correct that there are two AskLemmy's? https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy If so, is there any way to bring communities with the same purpose (or even same name) on different instances together? If not, how can we prevent fragmentation of these communities?

Moving instances and deleting users

1) I can see that people have been asking for the ability to - as a user - move to a different Lemmy-instance. Is this still considered? How probably is it that it will be implemented any time soon? 2) When I create a user at an instance, I delete it, but then afterwards I want to create it again (with the same name), it says that the user already exists. Is this intentional? Will it be possible to (re)create a user with the same name after some time? Or never?
