Yeah, you're right. It would be even more obvious now if it were redone. I specifically like that one because it invites people to scroll through the time axis slowly and on a linear scale. It makes the recent changes more real than the same graph fitted to a screen and seen all at once.

Here is a graphic to help visualize the unprecedented rate of temp change. Data source for temperature is cited and likely errors are explained. https://xkcd.com/1732/

No. This is a global average, not one weighted by population. (Edit for spelling)

If they had the courage of their convictions they would've carpeted the inside of the tub too.

I think the sick days were the sticking point for the unions that did not approve provisional deal. So this reads to me like this:

Side with the megacorps - pass the first bill

Side with the 'economy' - pass both bills (temporary benefit for most workers)

Side with workers - pass neither bill, pass a new bill giving them higher benefits than requested to show rail companies that they can't play fast and loose with infrastructure and expect any support

This is actually the strength of federation and open source. There is no central authority to stop any use. We individually have control over what we interact with in the usual way and we (collectively as an instance) have the same control. If you don't want to belong to an instance that blocks anyone, join a different instance or even start your own. This is just one place of many. Each of us can find or create the one that is right for us.
