is it a good sign when the national weather service runs out of pre-assigned colors to depict temperature?

@dirkhh Do not sit on the danger chairs!

[xri@kolektiva.social]

@dirkhh yes, it means it will turn around so tomorrow will be -36

@simonzerafa @dirkhh *winks from halfway across the ash zone*

@dirkhh I've noticed some of the heat maps just wrap the color scale around at some point of horridness.

[helenaviking@social.spejset.org]

@dirkhh It's the void!

@mirabilos @dirkhh

I told someone to watch out for the ash hole earlier and they got quite upset

@dirkhh
Don't worry, it's just a fever. It will go down, once the infection plaguing earth is killed off.

Ist es gut mitten drin statt nur dabei zu sein?

[dirkhh@social.afront.org]

@elala
meistens: NEIN
hier: absolutely definitely 100% NOT

@dirkhh most probably they predict a vulcanic eruption tomorrow …

[etchedpixels@mastodon.social]

@simonzerafa @dirkhh yeah. Nothing on but the aircon and it's still really hot

[dirkhh@social.afront.org]

@etchedpixels

I hear you. As I said, there are fairly simple limits to what A/C can do.

But with the difficult choice of "promote the essential-to-humanity unlimited growth of AI data centers" and "do the absolute bare minimum to try and slow down climate change", it's obvious that a well bought politician needs to accept option 1...

[peet@ravenation.club]

@dirkhh it's been bothering me why they've all gone past dark red to grey, ash was obvious

[lechimp@mastodon.pub.solar]

@dirkhh that charred black looks accurate, tho

[christianriegel@digitalcourage.social]

@amro @dirkhh

But the heat as a global energy will stay on the planet. Nothing will be cool anymore, even without the golf stream.

And yes, I "joked" (despite apocalypse not being funny) with a colleague that even regarding temperatures "40 is the new 30": when I was a kid, we talked about 30°C as we now do about 40°C.

@dirkhh @glynmoody is it a rhetorical question?

@lechimp @dirkhh I was going for the same comment... it accurately depicts the country being burnt to a crisp.
