They were firing at military targets because Israel assassinated one of their generals. If Israel wants to start a war with Iran while they have their hands full with Gaza and Lebanon that’s their perogative but the US shouldn’t be enabling this insanity.
Dyson Sphere program has some great interplanetary and intersolar exploration and supply chain building. I thin that’s the more apt comparison.
It’s only blocked in India, while not great we can still access it and the information is still out there for anyone with a VPN.
Get up, come on get down with the sickness

This is literally what the UN secretary general was referring to when he said the Hamas attacks didn’t happen in a vacuum. I don’t think the attacks were justified or even effective but it wasn’t some random act, the growth of Hamas comes from Israeli government backed oppression of Palestinians which itself comes after failed peace talks so on and so forth until the birth of civilization (though you could argue until the late 1940s).
They go after it mainly to appease external forces like other countries objecting to it, but people who are convicted often get very light sentences.
Why wait a year?
I honestly was getting annoyed at Will in my DUrge playthrough where I kept Laezel. He was constantly asking weirdly prying questions about her sex life.
The dancing was fine until it wasn’t. It’s one thing to work up to it and go in for a kiss, but don’t get all pissy and run away when you get rebuffed. If you can’t handle a fairly normal rejection, maybe just go slower and talk things through more before getting physical.
A government using war to revoke civil liberties and oppress their citizens? Color me surprised.
They’ve been living under an Israeli siege for over a decade and had a mature enough intelligence apparatus to plan a highly coordinated assault while living in a surveillance state… If you don’t think this wasn’t a calculated informed attack you’ve got your head up your ass.
I’m not condoning indiscriminate killing and rape of civilians and taking hostages, I also don’t condone the inhumane siege of Gaza that has been happening for decades. 50% of Gaza is under 18. That’s not because they’re popping out kids, its because you just don’t survive that long in that kind of environment, those are also deaths. Not graphic ones that make headlines, but lives were still lost. Its incredibly hypocritical to assume Israel’s shit don’t stink in this situation either.
I’m also queasy when I read the coverage of the recent attacks by Hamas, I also haven’t been living in a police state. Not saying this is the most effective way that they can achieve their objectives, but I can understand how someone growing up seeing violence, sickness and malnutrition for completely preventable reasons dehumanizes the people they see as being the cause of their situation and join or support an organization like Hamas.
I feel like the high from reaching a difficult objective wears off too quickly for me to really feel worth starting the next challenge.
I like factory or management games, even ones where it is expected you will fail, like Dwarf Fortress, because it’s not about winning or getting a high score. It’s about going in with an idea and setting it through to fruition. I like seeing things I spent a bunch of time on as a large concrete thing I can go back and look at again, and actually have it provide meaningful value in a direct way instead of just incrementing some number in the engine somewhere.
I still play some roguelites that are like that, but there is something nice about sandbox games where progress isn’t directly quantifiable.
I didn’t read all of the articles, but the last one is local folklore. You can find stories about succubi or other framing of women as people who weaponise sex in a lot of cultures, it’s not something unique to local Indian folklore.
The second to last was basically saying that patriarchal values are encoded into religion and used to enforce a patriarchal hierarchy which is true with every religion that is practiced in a patriarchal society. Also, do not understand how they included Draupadhi’s SA as an example of something pro rape. That whole incident was perpetrated by the story antagonists and is framed as something so bad a god intervened on her behai to protect her.
Being if dravidian descent, like most of south India, they definitely identify as Hindu and have the same range of fervor from barely religious up to religious nationalist as the rest of India.
Hinduism amalgamated a lot of local religions and philosophies as well, so proto Hindu beliefs and traditions are also part of modern Hinduism.
There’s a sense of completion that isn’t there in a tabletop. When I play BG3 I’m constantly thinking about alternate paths and what-ifs.
When I’m playing in person its more thinking about your character and the story you’re playing in person.
Cloud saved banjo kazooie runs. The future is now.
The reason it is sports washing is because they have human rights abuses to be hidden. If you shred documents because they have your personal information on it, it fine. If you shred documents because they are evidence of a crime, then that is obstruction of justice. Same principle applies here.
Summary missed any mention of Khalistan, a Sikh separatist movement which is an important aspect of the article. It’s the purported reason the activist was killed.
So, it seems like the secret was the opposition parties actually campaigning on doing things the voters liked and addressing their concerns instead of belittling them. I agree, I think US politicians should also try actually appealing to disaffected voters to get them to vote against tyranny instead of lecturing them.
