Indeed, sounds like a legitimate win to me.
It’s basically a FOSS Chromebook.

They are probably eating everything they can find, considering they are living under famine. If there is a bag of popcorn in Gaza, they will eat it.
But I agree, this doesn’t look like popcorn to me.
RIP Navalny.
I remember him flying back from Germany to Russia after the poisoning. Watching Ricky & Morty with his wife.
Very brave, but incomprehensibly stupid.
If ever there was a person who had a justified claim to political asylum, it was him.
I was expecting this news.
I think someone is doing some arm twisting in NATO, and I think that someone might be Joe Biden.
I am no fan of Hamas, but even I can see this is a bad deal.
So they want Hamas to give up all their leverage and then after two months they will happily continue starving and bombing Gaza?
Why would Hamas agree to such a deal?
It really seems like Netanyahu doesn’t care about the hostages and they’re just pushing bad deals to placate the Israeli public to make it seem like they are doing something.
I’m not an American.
Gonna downvote you for making assumptions.
And no, I am also quite critical of the evil of my own country, but I probably have huge blind spots as well.
Ok, wow… I didn’t know that even existed.
Today I learned.
Honestly, the one thing that really surprises me about this war is how little the Israeli government cares about the hostages.
They really do value land more than human lives.
And the absolute cold blooded attitude they have towards innocent Palestinians is horrifying.
Regardless of what the ICJ decides, for me people who support Hamas, ISIS, Russia, deny the Holocaust, neo-nazis or those who support the state of Israel are all immoral persons.
And it is difficult to accept that most people are actually quite comfortable with evil. It seems to be that people are just tribal in which evil they support and which evil they object to.

I think this is a major part of it.
Which is why high levels of wealth and power actually lead to bad mental health of the rich and powerful.
They get detached from normal life and start looking for thrills in the wrong places. It’s kind of a similar effect as what middle class people know as lifestyle adaptation or the hedonic treadmill.
Once the normal things that provide pleasure are easy to obtain, people start looking for pleasure in places that still provide mystery, adventure and a challenge.
These people desperately need therapy to learn how to be content with normal things, but instead they follow their flawed monkey brains into a trap.
I am very critical of the Apartheid crimes and genocide being committed by Israel, but I’ll give them a small credit for this.
They still need to do way more though.
Hamas and Netanyahu are allies.
Yes, fixed
So the Hamas oct 7 terror attack (which we all condemn) hit about 1/3 security forces and 2/3 civilians.
And Israel is hitting like 90% civilians in Gaza, and even civilians in the West Bank and Lebanon, where Hamas and Hezbollah are or were keeping low.
I always thought it was a terrorist organization against an Apartheid state.
But it seems to look more and more like a terrorist state against freedom fighters.
Ashamed my country abstained, but I am happy Canada didn’t.

Me neither. Apparently, some schools teach this, but most only learn this in college.
Which is why the culture war so often involves College educated van non-College educated.
I’m on the College side of the culture war, but we must kind of acknowledge the truth that we had extra education that the other side did not.
Some of them might resent us for it, some of us might be snobby about it.
But at root, that’s where the culture disparity stems from.
The best way to give domestic workers an advantage would be to really raise property taxes, but make them subtractable as a tax credit. Credit… not deductible, so overall tax burden on workers would be lower.
This would be an easy and logical step away from taxing labour and moving to taxation of land.
If we are going to shed tears for the loss of culture, then the loss of Roman era bath houses and early Christian churches in Gaza is quite a bit more concerning to me than this painting.
