No no everyone matters, but if they're not brown they just matter a bit more /s

Oh they'll take disciplinary action against those who took the videos... Can't have that leaking. Note that the headline does not state "Israeli soldier misbehaviour in Gaza create a headache for army", it's the Videos of part that troubles them

This man is literally giving his life and sacrificing himself in the hopes of creating a better Russia. It's incredibly brave.

I agree with all you said, but I think a 3D printer is actually a special type of concern next to generic cyber security and privacy, because it can affect the physical world. It's not unthinkable that the machine can remotely be told to heat up beyond safe levels and as such create a fire risk. Not the type of device that should have an open and active connection to a server somewhere far away in my opinion.

Personally, a 3D printer that has to be connected to a cloud would be a hard no. Even more so when that cloud is located in China without EU or US oversight.

For what it's worth (annecdotal and n=1 and all that), my Prusa mini has been absolutely flawless for 3 years now. I would buy it again even at a higher price point than the current.

You need to see this in the current context though, this polling is done after two months of heavy bombing by Israel. The sentiment in Gaza at the moment is not exactly positive towards Israel right now, and rightly so.

The one that for me is a key point is how small the believe in a two state solution has become and the other ones related to the believe in a peaceful situation. This is what I have been thinking all the time - Israel has created a situation in which peace with Gaza is becoming impossible. There is an entire generation now that will not be able to forgive Israel. Short term, they may be able to defeat Hamas, but there is no way that this will be a stable situation. But I guess Bibi just needs it to last for as long as he intends to be in power, and doesn't give a shit about what comes after.

I'm Dutch and afaik right-wing media doesn't play a role.

I take it you haven't looked at the Telegraaf or PowNews the last months? They definitely played a role.

Omtzigt is sowieso een draaikont eerste klas gebleken, zwaar teleurgesteld in hem.

Yeah, 15 guns in a hospital that holds thousands, in the middle of an active warzone? That's probably the lowest density of guns in the whole of Gaza right now. Hell I'm willing to bet that if you were to search any big hospital on the planet, there's probably 15 guns stored somewhere.

Israel itself has said they dropped something like 6000 bombs in the first week. Imagine that number, and then realize Gaza is one of the most populated areas in the world (like pretty much a city all the way through), how would that number of deaths be anything but realistic? Just think about what would happen if they dropped 6000 bombs in Manhatten, how many deaths do you think there would be? If anything, 9000 sounds of the low side.

I'm not asking what Israel considers acceptable collateral damage, I'm asking what individuals consider acceptable collateral damage. Note that also no where in my post I presumed Israel and it's supporters, my questions were balanced both sides and I let open which one you would find acceptable. For me personally, collateral damage on either side is not acceptable.

If you consider both sides acceptable collateral damage, congratulations you are not a racist. However, you could question your value for human life in general.
