Always wondered why I felt useless when trying to work on a plane.

Just showing carbon dioxide levels in an airplane cabin. Anything above ~1000 starts to measurably impact cognitive performance.

Look at the chart over time! (The Aranet app can load it.)

It usually builds up quite high while idling, then more while the plane is being pressurized/depressurized (first/last ~hour), upwards of 2500+ on most planes.

There is no network and no working environment, which makes people feel useless.

For me, this is the best time to calm down and read or think. Because the network is limited and the environment is limited, I can only read or think obediently.🤣 🤣
