America's richest 10% are responsible for 40% of its planet-heating pollution, new report finds (www.cnn.com)

America’s wealthiest people are also some of the world’s biggest polluters – not only because of their massive homes and private jets, but because of the fossil fuels generated by the companies they invest their money in.

This, and most of China's carbon emissions come from the production of goods for the rest of the world, so they're not the only ones "responsible" for those 50%.

Newbie Looking for Solid Keyboard $200 or Less

Ummmm so wow how have I never discovered this before??? This is the perfect place for me and it just so happens my keyboard died and I need a new one! I run a Mac and am not picky about Bluetooth or hardwired. Everything else you will have to explain it to me like I’ve 5 haha. Thanks I’m advance. Oh and I did read through...

Love Keychron, I have a K2 and need to refrain myself from ordering more keyboards from them

Apparently Ficus Elastica (rubber tree, tineke) is easily propagated. (lemmy.world)

Did some digging online and the secret is a dish of moist O²-rich soil inside a loosely sealed clear tote. The clear tote lets the leaves photosynthesize while maintaining a higher than average temp and humidity. Meanwhile the oxygenated soil helps with root production....

I recently tried putting ficus cuttings in water and was surprised at how quickly they made new roots. They are now potted and grow pretty fast

If you have access to Netflix, comedian John Mulaney made a whole special on the subject recently : link

I have the same issue, I posted to Lemmy communities from my kbin account and my posts are visible on kbin but not on the server I posted to.

Here's my posts history on 2 different servers, both are incomplete:
https://lemmy.world/u/starfennec@kbin.social
https://lemmy.ohaa.xyz/u/starfennec@kbin.social

Okay, seems to be related to posting images instead of links. My links posted to other instances are displayed everywhere, my image posts only appear on kbin.

Hey, I sent your post to my scientist friend who said this. Hope that helps

"I am an atmospheric scientist myself, and studied meteorology. I took some climatology courses during my studies. I think that to get most out from those courses , you should think about taking some courses in basic atmospheric dynamics (take a look e.g. at Holton's introduction to dynamic meteorology; maybe its not that hard given your background). My work has loads of variability as I conduct various measurements, perform data analysis and model simulations to investigate atmospheric phenomena (not that much pure climatology). Programming is an essential skill, of course in addition to knowing the basic science, familiarising oneself with recent literature, and connecting new findings to those. It's quite fun. Of course job security is not really a thing, and might be better in weather forecasting. Good luck! :)"
