Back in the 60s, People used to criticize the American Civil Rights movement because the Soviets supported it. Bad faith then, bad faith now.

This is ironic since it's exactly the people who search for a "deep sense of meaning" who are the most credulous and vulnerable.
A man who says the meaning of life is when your quesadilla has burned bits of cheese on the outside of the tortilla might sound like a fool, but I bet he wouldn't let a cult leader fuck his wife.
I'm a huge keyboard shortcut guy. But any more than two modifiers can fuck right off. I wanna launch a program, not play carpel tunnel Twister.
More recently, “LShift+Win+F23” opens Copilot
That's insane considering 99% of users have never heard of F23 and the ones who know use a separate shortcut to activate it. I've never seen a keyboard with all 24 function keys.
I feel like the people most affected by paywalls, i.e. people who read their news, are already pretty well informed.
There's plenty of access to quality journalism, more than ever, the problem is that no amount of quality or availability can compete with misinformation tailored to addict, comfort, and flatter it's audience. You can't inform people against their will.
I normally don't encourage clicking on someone's post history, but this jackass is something special.
Journalists killed in Gaza represent the vast majority of journalists killed worldwide in '23, '24. So if Israel is putting them in jail, it's softening it's policy.

Their are strategies that make the fight significantly easier. Like charging the fire umbrella with his special attacks and countering. Sometimes he will spam the lightning attack in the last phase making it trivial.
IDK about straight cheese, though I remember seeing a Youtuber trick him to fall off the cliff.
Is the UN official saying that the pier is enabling the Israeli invasion of Rafah, as though it wouldn't happen otherwise? Or is he saying that but for the pier, Israel will open more land crossing to aid?
And what is the corrective action? Should the pier be built somewhere else, or not at all? Are their any factors about where to locate the pier besides political? Like the depth of the water or existing infrastructure?
And if the problem with the aid is that it's a meaningless PR gesture, then does PR medicine not heal? Dose PR food not nourish?
Please help me understand why delivering food and medicine to Gaza is bad.
Everyone lives in layers of self-constructed fantasy and coming into contact with reality is called trauma. At least according to Jacques Lacan.
The reason Dwyer shot himself is that he was facing prison time for a corruption scheme and if he died while still in office, his family got full benefits. ~~Oh, and it turned out he was innocent.~~
Edit: sorry, turns out I was spreading disinformation. I read the Wikipedia article and it turns out the evidence against Dwyer was pretty solid. Thanks u/TopRamenBinLaden for setting me straight.
I don't think the Warsaw uprising is an apt comparison for the war in Gaza. Never-mind the inflammatory nature of the Israel/Nazi comparison. But it's just doesn't add much context or illumination to what's happening.
I think historic examples that could bring more light than heat are : Plan Dalet and the Nakba (47-48), Beirut ('82), or the First Intifada (87-93). I think it might help if people understood more about this conflict, rather than trying to retread it over with WWII.
