Israel pulled out of Palestine in 2005 and Palestine elected their own government, at that point they’re an independent nation.

What? Why? Where did I say that? What the fuck are you talking about?
I asked how this conflict was different and you started talking about a completely different topic like stategic bombing. But Israel isn’t using strategic bombing, they’re using artillery and missiles. Just like how the allies did against Berlin and other German cities when fighting the Germans. So how is this different?
But you’re still ok with using artillery against a city if the city has an army in it?
My impression is that at least half of fediverse.
I got that impression too, and the fediverse has lost a lot of its shine recently. People are rushing to say that they support “both sides” and Israel can defend itself… but just not in any way that would be able to stop another attack like October’s from happening. It feels like a lot of people just want to side with Hamas, but don’t want to actually say that out loud.
Ok, I have to ask. How would you apply this to any other conflict. For example the Allies fighting against Germany. Where did the German civilians fall in the spectrum of evil. Was fighting Germany justified, knowing that German civilians might suffer? If so, how is this situation different?
So, just to be clear, you’re saying that the attack against Israel was actually a secret Jewish conspiracy to make Hamas look bad?
In your example neither Pakistan or India are on America’s side, so it’s not reasonable to expect loyalty. Now consider this, what would make America turn on another western democracy like the UK, France, Australia or Canada. It would take a lot.
Seems like normally consequences for acts at the global level are more based on geopolitical considerations than moral considerations. I could imagine if India assassinated a US citizen the intelligence would have just been buried and nobody would have ever heard about it so the US could contribute building up the India relationship to use against China.
Which I’ve always had trouble with, because if you know that someone is immoral, then why are you trusting that they’re going to care about your relationship with them?
It’s better because Bing may still have selling ads as a priority when building the indexer. If you’re not the one paying, you’re the product.
Because last time I checked they just used Bing anwyay, while Kagi runs their own indexer.
I can tell you from experience I have a Samsung T5 (500GB) that has over 95TB of writes over 5+ years to it and it’s only used up 17% of its spare blocks. The T7 which is the newer model is like $40, I’d just get one of those. They’re very reliable, I’ve bought a few and none of them have failed. The larger drives have more spare blocks and are even more resistant to writes.
Personally I would recommend a portable SSD, over a HDD as I’ve had several HDDs fail but never lost an SSD, BackBlaze backs this up with their total drive failure statistics being 2.5% for HDDs and under 0.5% for SSDs. Your real danger will be that a portable drive is guaranteed to get jostled and an SSD is far more resilient to that.
There’s loads of flaws in it, but it’s a method that could push back on global warming on a wide scale fairly cheaply.
Google’s becoming pretty terrible anyway, it only seems to return pages that are selling things. I’ve switched to Kagi at this point and it seems to work better, it’s subscription only, but you know you’re the one paying for it and that means that you’re the end customer.
Maybe, but the thing about plants is that they grow themselves. Which means they’ll still be contributing after funding gets cut and the project scrapped.
I think some kind of drought and heat tolerant bamboo might be needed it we want to grow plants fast enough to actually make a dent in carbon levels.
I was just discussing this with someone earlier today. It’s been like ~20 years that Evergrande’s been in business, right? Possibly more, that’s a huge part of someone’s entire career. That means that people could have joined the workforce and worked their way up into upper management purely just working on Evergrande’s contracts.
In some places you can get a home internet line that runs through the mobile phone data network, and they tend to be more reliable than cabled connections, they can get even better if they use a modem data plan and not explicitly a home bulk plan. It really hinges on how much data you use and what plans are available where you are. Of course if you do it this way you won’t have a private IPV4, but if your ISP allows IPV6, that should be unique and directly accessible no matter what.
As the other poster mentioned there are routers that have a SIM connection as backup, and now they’re being offered with a SIM and automatic fail-over as part of some fiber to the home plans.
How much worse is their internal strife going to be once they lose a war? Russia was tooling along before attacking Ukraine, but now they might actually for real topple within a few years.
Revoke their pardons then. It’s only fair.
I read the BBC article on the recent shooting, you’re right, it’s tragic and wrong. Two gunmen shot up a settlement and then started exchanging fire with an IDF unit and the child was shot in the crossfire. This is awful, but has nothing to do with Palestine being an independent nation since this happened in the west bank, not the Gaza strip, which as I understand it, are different.
Also, this article (which is the only one I can access) seems to be posted in bad faith, the whole tragic situation started by a bunch of people opening fire on random Israeli citizens. But there’s no mention of this at all when you’re decrying Israeli violence. And the same for your talk about “Strategic Bombing”, that no one is doing, or the political situation in the west bank (which is different from the Gaza strip).
