Hamas rips up pipe to make rockets, and steals construction supplies to make tunnels.
The pipe and supplies that are supposed to help Palestinians live and survive without disease.
So that Hamas can apply pressure to ISRAEL for the Palestinian conditions?
Myself and literally everyone I know want to support the Palestinians. And it’s impossible to support them while Hamas (or another jihadist organization) is there.
It’s a circle, not a line. Far left and far right end up meeting in the middle.
I recently got sick and decided to play through ff2 (iv). I’ve owned it since I was a kid but never beat it.
I finished it in less than 24 real world hours.
I was astonished at the difference being an adult makes with regard to gaming.
As usual, the onion nails the satire.
Arguing from empathy with no regard for facts is hopeless.
Arguing from facts with no regard for empathy is dangerous.
We need both.
It’s not a subtle ad. Google has sold the top slots of your search to companies in exchange for money.
When your search for “Excel”, Google doesn’t try to find you the most relevant result. They find you the highest paying ad, and then what you’re searching for.
Don’t be evil.
Don’t forget Coca-Cola Fanta.
Just BROADLY speaking, the pro Palestinian take right now is that Israel should be removed and Palestine given all of the territory.
Like, that’s the take. They don’t just want an end to the violence - Israel wants that too. Hamas has been dedicated to the destruction of Jews and Israel for basically forever.
So it’s asymmetrical.
The pro Israel take is “destroy Hamas so that these attacks stop and there can be peace.” But it’s important to note that up until the October 7 attack Israel only wanted peace. This new policy is a reaction to an unprecedented attack.
Underrated pun. Nice.
Oh!

Adam Something just released a C:S2 video where he removed roads and messed with traffic logic.
I too am an Adam Something fan. 😂

Also wait for sales.
$404 divided over 10 years is different than as a lump. But getting the whole bundle for 80% off because it’s been successfully developed for 10 years is value.
Star Citizen only feels like it’s been in alpha for 65 years.
Yeah people don’t seem to be understanding that this is a technical and pragmatic issue, not a business decision.
It’s the “new and improved” problem. If it’s new, it’s not improved. And if it’s improved, it’s not new.
If you want a new, cutting edge game, you aren’t just improving the old game. So the old stuff likely won’t be compatible.
If you want an improvement/extension of the old game, you won’t be getting a shiny new game.
They made the choice to make a shiny new game but they need to try to prevent the inevitable backlash from people being upset that they’re favorite X/Y/Z is missing.
I have some organic cyanide you might be interested in…
Yes.
This is the thing people don’t understand about a ubi.
I had a coworker who’s wife was a… Case manager? For welfare. Her whole job was determining whether or not people were lying/exaggerating about various elements of their claim.
First of all, government union paper pushers make decent money. There was an entire office full of people that covered cases in their region only.
Second, it’s a soul sucking job. Her primary assumption was that everyone was cheating and lying and she needed to minimize everyone’s payout.
UBI solves both of those things and by plugging it directly into the tax system people can be free to try to earn a better living, which studies have shown most people want when they are given a UBI.
Increased productivity, increased employment, increased entrepreneurship, increased mental health outcomes, there is literally no downside except for needing to tax the rich.
So wait, your position is that Israel is behind the Hamas attacks on Israel, in order to justify their military action against Gaza?
Do you have any evidence to support that?
More importantly people don’t want to buy into closed game environments. They promise of ongoing development attracts players that want that type of scale, and also allows devs to continue to eat. It’s a win/win.
This is the right choice by devs. I haven’t played it and honestly I probably never will, but I respect the decision.
Hamas literally ran politically as MODERATES. They’ve gone full jihadist. Without democratic process to keep the structure honest no party can be trusted.
