In the beginning, autumn and spring duration were 13 weeks. Then six, then three weeks. The last autumn lasted for a week. In next year they will be four days, we could be seeing a summer and winter transition in eight hours, until they switch in four minutes.
If amoc shuts down we’ll (nordics) have a Siberian climate.
Does Lemmy have a version of the remindme bot?
Thank you
The reddit people that are more and more coming here
Isn’t this a non-corpo alternative to reddit? Or am I missing the point completely?
It is. Doesnt stop people from reddit to come here. And among these there are also the problem people
why is asking for a remindme bot so problematic for you?
Because it’s a redditism and people are pissy about reddit.
This should be really obvious… Feels like you gotta be out of touch to have to ask that.
:/
Complaining about “redditism” on a website that is built to look and feel like old reddit is a bit weird. Oh no, someone made a post and another person commented. That’s just like reddit.
How about we don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater and if something from reddit was helpful we have our own version of it.
It’s as non-corpo until the big bucks start swinging here. Enjoy it while it lasts, or until all freedom of speech is gone
I’ll get them started attacking people for having free speech.
Dumpy has a tiny pee pee!
There’s one on mastodon that works on lemmy too! (Yay Fediverse) check out this post for details: https://threadiverse.link/lemmy.ca/post/1143350
!RemindMe 2035
How come you can makum snowballs in summertime?
why 2034 we already barely have snow
Its not like the weather isn’t recorded everyday for the past while now, right?
Hello yes police? This guy over here is talking about record keeping. What’s that, you need to shoot me too? Anything for my country^^tm
You’ve seen how much evidence there is that the earth is spherical and that germs are real right? Just because information is recorded doesn’t mean it will be trusted. Anything they like is true, anything they dislike is “fake news”
MRGA guy on the right
brace yourself, winter debate is coming
God, I remember when that meme was so fun to use.
Clouds.
What’s winter ?
The time when stuff is really dry because nestle cloud seeds over their collectors, but it’s not all hot enough to reach its flash point. Until the big fire (that’s usually ‘spring’). So its the ~month where you can sometimes see the sky.
It used to snow as late as April in southern Kanto (Tokyo metro area) back in the early 2010s, sometimes leaving several cm on the ground for days.
I spent last winter in northern Kanto and it only flurried a couple of times.
Western Europe. Places stopped having any freezing in winter. It just turned into one long autumn.
When I lived in the NE US in the ‘00s it would snow so much the airports would shut down for a day. Piles of snow would last well into spring. Last time I was there it snowed maybe a total of a foot for the entire winter for a couple years running. All those winter scenes in film, or even Currier and Ives prints from the turn of the last century are the only context that it used to actually snow and stay covered for months at a time.
Same deal with Lake Placid, NY and Hakuba, Nagano, you ask anyone who’s been in a snow area since the 70s about how impassible people’s yards became from the snow when they were in their 20s. At least Sapporo got snow this year.
I grew up in NE Ohio in the 1970s. Generally the first snowfall was in early October and by November the ground was entirely covered in snow. You didn’t see even hints of green grass until the end of April and the snow wasn’t entirely gone until some time in May (and the giant mounds of snow thrown up by the snow plows would often still be there into June, after school had let out). That is literally half the year in snow cover. Granted, being right next to Lake Erie makes the snow situation about as bad as possible, but it’s nothing like this today.
That shit made me move to the South as soon as possible, but it took me a couple of decades to realize that institutionalized racism is worse than trudging through snow once in a while.
institutionalized racism is worse than trudging through snow once in a while
How many black kids went to your highschool? There’s still institutionalized racism in Ohio, it just takes slightly different forms.
I live in the arctic, we had 3 weeks over 30c this summer.
The first two weeks of September were all over 20c. Normal high for these two weeks is 8.8c.
Snow would usually sit around until late April/ early May. The last 4-5 years it’s been gone early April at the latest.
Do you remember the seasons, Mr. Frodo? It’ll be winter soon. […] and eating the first of the snow with the yellow colour. Do you remember the taste of yellow snow?
I had a coworker who told us every winter that “There always used to be winters with little to no snow, the alarmists just make that into a big deal.” and every summer that “There always have been hot summers.” When pointing out that he is saying that every year and when did he have 3-4 hot summers in a row in his childhood, he’d just say “oh it’s just 3 summers. Shit happens. It’s no big deal and doesn’t mean anything.” (And the year after that it was just 4 summers and the year after that he denied it was even that hot 5 years ago.)
