Isreal can without a doubt survive without the US. They might need to cut back military spending or reallocate money from elsewhere. I’m terms of arms they manufacturer domestically most of what is required, guns tanks missles. They are on the cutting edge in certain tech industries and can find people to sell to outside of the US. I’d bet China, russia would ditch Iran in a heartbeat to scoop up isreal.

Pretending isreal will collapse is fantasy and pushing them away would be an major strategic blunder and cause less peace in the region.

Thats a beautiful rack

Trump is doing the same thing.

The core issue with social media isnt the medium its the platforms and how they influence user behaviour.

On the fediverse there does exist some of the same issues as Instagram etc but instead of the platform working to keep the user in this cycle of negative feedback and behaviour the fediverse gives the user the tools and even encourages the user to use in a healthier manner. Examples being settings to toggle inf scroll, content warning, keyword filtering, chronological feed, no ads, no UI Dark Patterns.

Trumps statements dont feel news worthy. Nothing he says is of any value. Only his actions are worth watching.

You can. But people want more than what static sites are able to provide. Our computers and Infra are incredibly capable and we dont need to artificially limit ourselfs to static webpages.

I love browsing static blog sites but even I’ll admit I’d quickly get bored if we had no JavaScript web apps.

Hyper sonic missiles are interceptable. Drone interceptable. Cruise missle are interceptable.

That being said the US is way to large to cover since the batteries have to be right on site for the best chance of interception and its way to risky to rely on interception. Also any golden dome can be overwhelmed with a mix of real and fakes like we see happening in Ukraine and Isreal. Diplomacy + a non retarded leader + international trade + mutually assured destruction should be enough to prevent war.

These are so much worse. Osla proposed a government of Palestinians to govern and had clear restrictions on isreals involvement and withdrawal. this proposes a government of foreign technocrats and still let’s isreal operate in Gaza with no restrictions.

The ‘peace deal’ proposed is so bad on nearly every level and theyre only given 4 days to response and they’ve been threatened if they dont accept.

“Hamas would be forced to disarm and turn over power to a group of apolitical technocrats, supervised by an international body led by Trump and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.”

Yeah just want people want controlling them, right wing technocrats…

Its not really “from scratch” but its another great showcase of linux from a non linux youtuber. I think they did really well getting into the weeds of KDE’s UI.

No. It seems like pointless “HR” talk. I try to be direct and dry with my communication and very neutral so personalities dont clash while working. Generally I have no conflicts at work and the few I have had I work through it and make no attempt to resolve anything.

Did they mention anywhere what borders? I’m guessing its going to be pre67 borders which is a complete non starter without significant diplomatic work from both sides and neither are even close to working something like that out.

Maybe its current borders with land swaps for settlements in the west bank and Gaza to remain under occupation. I can’t see anywhere that they clarify what they are actually recognising as the Palestinian state so its ringing pretty dam hollow to me. Theyve also said they won’t accept hamas in power so I guess theyve managed to recognise something which no side agrees to which is so stupid.

Removing capitalism from the equation would drive even more demand for security and resources and put less pressure on playing nice with international markets.

If you think Hamas follows the Geneva convention you must not follow the conflict beyond Al Jazeera headlines. I don’t know why you people warp yourselves into a position of Isreal bad therefore Hamas must be good. I guess you must think its a good thing they are still fighting and support “eternal resistance”.

When I was over in the states there were plenty of parks and free activities. Plenty of people using them as well.

The article is paywalled does anyone have the full text?

I have no idea what this is but it was cool.

If the us wants to fight it needs to be now. But they have no domestic support and no foreign support. They had all the cards and fumbled them over and over by electing terrible leaders.

Now the only smart option is to fall to 2nd place gracefully and try build up domestic production and strong alliances. However no one likes to give up power and the American leadership is anything but smart.
