I feel like this is not the first time this has happened.
NO IT SAYS FOR THE FIRST TIME ^sorry ^I ^shouted
You need to use a carot/arrow on both sides of the word to use superscript on lemmy.

Have they asked Charles Koch and the other oil men to sit for this experiment? They should have a taste of the future they’re forcing us to endure.
Will not defend the oil men, they don’t need it. But we’re all complicit, quit your high horse and look around at all the plastics, electricity and fuel you’re using in your day-2-day.
I know, I know, they’re literally forcing you to do so. If you really wanted to remain pure, you’d have to act as the protagonist of the Brave New World, though, when he just ends up going to live in a secluded forest by himself.
C’mon mate, this is decades old fossil fuel industry propaganda - making people blame themselves for the mess they got us all into. There’s no benefit from beating ourselves up - as individuals we hold no power over the industry. We need to work together and build an organised movement if we want to change things, we can’t change our behaviour individually to change the system.
Reader mode exposes a much better headline:
Scientists testing deadly heat limits on humans show thresholds may be much lower than first thought
I live in The South.
My air conditioner broke 3 years ago. This year we got a small window unit. It’s not enough to cool the whole house. But it does provide the very important feature of dehumidifying the house. The temperature in the house and outside can both be in the high 90s. But it is so much less oppressive inside the house where the humidity has been stripped out.
Get a good dehumidifier with a drain hose option so that you don’t have to keep emptying the tank. It will produce some heat, so placement is important, but it will pull moisture from the air more efficiently than the AC and that will improve the cooling.
We have a pretty decent one located in Mt wife’s room which is basically sealed off from the rest of the house. It runs into the shower. But despite its size it is inadequate for the whole house. I don’t have the money to buy a dedicated one for the whole house.
But this little window AC is doing a really excellent job. Set it to 80 and it keeps going and drying the air.
That’s some awful website design.
I think it’s pretty good for what it’s trying to do, which is relay scientific data to non-technical readers.
It’s a fairly standard format for news articles to be in.
That doesn’t make it any less awful.
Thankfully, a lot of browsers have a reader mode to undo such sins.
No it’s not.
We’re so fucked aren’t we
Nothing new
On a side note who thinks this overlay on repeating .Gifs style of websites is bloody annoying.
It’s like all rhose.facebook memes ‘a boy in Switzerland invented a brand new idea to help the disabled, sticks you can use to support your weight when walking!’ And the comments are people amazed by it.
I saw one where Finland inventes raised pathways made of wood so people can experience.nature without getting their feet muddy - europe has had raised track ways for at least 6000 years!
This is literally the kids sauna in Scandinavian countries
Do you sauna for 3 hours? or as the experiment is modelling for 5-12? without cooling your body down first?
