Hamas isn’t a state.

I'm with Gen Z on this. Hell, I've have been complaining about this since I was a kid in the 80s. You do not need every damn relationship to be a romance. People can be friends and acquaintances and frienemies and enemies and everything in-between without there being romance or sex.

That's kinda the thing about fascism... they don't need a majority. It's about seizing control and undermining democracy to do so.

Fascists can take over without ever having anything near a majority... hell, even a plurality.

"Price of waging war..."

Indiscriminate bombardment of civilians is not "war" Joe, it's fucking terrorism and genocide.

"But I have no confidence in the number that the Palestinians are using,”

Of course! Indiscriminately shelling a densely populated civilian population for weeks surely couldn't add up to such numbers! Let's just split the difference and call it two or three.

Yes, Hamas is a terrorist organization, but Israel is a terrorist state. Civilians are caught in the middle because we allow the terror to continue.

Do NOT apologize for mass murder and coordinated, deliberate terror.

Meta has irreparably screwed the pooch with their entire ecosystem and I will not be buying any more of their products. The UX is a major part of that, too.

Right now I’m hoping Valve re-enters the field at some point. I expect Apple Vision to be great, but it’s out of reach for most people and who knows how the walled garden will hamper key use-cases (like connecting to a PC).

And then there is Firefox, which isn’t evil at all. Lets not settle for any level of evil.

So… barely a tap on the wrist… and after his SECOND violation, no less.

I really wish Nightdive was a little more ambitious with these.

The System Shock remake looks exactly how my rose-tinted memory remembers it.

This, however, looks awful. This is not how I remember SS2, even if it's literally how it originally looked. :-(

It'll be fine. Surgery is neat. If they put you under, one second you are awake and counting backwards... and then you are suddenly waking up.

The most important thing is do exactly what they tell you... especially any and all rehab afterward. Take the rehab seriously, because if you shirk it, you are very likely pay for that for the rest of your life.
