Then you are voting for the greater of two genocides, which seems worse tbh.

In the US it's not really feasible to vote 3rd party without throwing your vote away. Something like the parliamentary systems would work better, or perhaps a ranked choice. You are going to have either the R or D candidate as president. Best to choose the one you can stomach the most.

It should be changed, but would require a rewrite of a lot of the constitution.

Yeah. And it would have been this way no matter if he did nothing, attacked Hamas directly, or bombed Israel.

The conflicts in the Middle East is very devisive. Folks have been fighting over that area since before we have written history. No matter what you do someone is going to want you dead.

I think his approach of guarding without direct invasion is probably the right one, but neither side will be happy with it.

How would you get those batteries or power those armed sentries without being a part of society?

They require quite a bit of specialization to build and maintain.

If someone steals my bike I would totally steal it back, and depending on where you live they execute murderers. I don't think it needs to be a special case.

I think that question should be up to you. If you want kids have them, if you don't then that's cool too.

Unless you really want to start another eugenics movement telling who can and can't reproduce.

The Australians have a cardboard kamikaze drone. The hard part would be sourcing enough electronics in a warzone.

As long as you do not rely on SEO to get traffic. This has a good chance of affecting how Google sees your site as well.

Yeah, I have a network attached brother black and white printer. It's pretty great. It handles 98 percent of my printing workload, no fuss, I honestly don't remember the last time I changed any toner. Has a scanner on top that works if I need it.

If I want something big/nice and in full color I can always go down to the print shop. But for your common printing it's great.

If it's going to get scalped anyways, I would prefer we did it in the open auction style the first half year, with the RPI foundation getting the proceeds.

These scalper bots are adding nothing of value. Fuck em.

Unless you have been locked in a sensory deprivation tank for your whole life, and have independently developed the English language, you too have learned from other people's content.
