Israel’s foreign minister threatened Wednesday that his country’s forces would strike Iran directly if the Islamic Republic launched an attack from its territory against Israel, as tensions between the rival powers flare following the killings of Iranian generals in a blast at the Iranian consulate in Syria....
Truth down voted by offended tankies, who are so anti West and anti Israel that they will side with a literal autocratic theocratic terrorist state that kills its own people and brutally subjugates its women and dissenters and sponsors terrorism all across that region. It’s apparent that these stupid fucks have never lived in an Islamic country.
Wait, I thought gravity is not a “force” but the curvature of spacetime, so at some point the curvature gotta end or be disturbed by some other source nearby, right? A star so far away is not exerting any “force” on me as I already have two massive objects Earth and Sun twisting the spacetime around me so much. I could however be getting some gravitational waves from that star but not sure how strong they’d be or if they reach me at all (again given Sun and Earth).

I’m interviewing for a software dev job currently (it’s in the initial stages).

Oh so now are we supposed to praise people who are mentally ill to such an extent that they are setting themselves on fire, just because it’s for a “cause” you support? What’s the next step, praise Hamas suicide bombers? You fucking absolute hypocrite.
Israel has announced plans to launch a full-scale offensive on the town of Rafah in the southern Gaza strip, claiming it is the only way to “completely destroy” Hamas. But according to former French military officer and author Guillaume Ancel, a large-scale military operation in the city that is now host to half of Gaza’s...
Yeah “offered” a deal when Hamass got their asses fucked so much it stated bleeding. They want an unconditional full ceasefire which ain’t gonna happen buddy. Full ceasefire only when Hamass releases the hostages, surrenders all weapons and agrees to end their almost 20 year old tyrannical and terror based rule on Gazans.
You (Hamass) attacked on Oct 7 knowing full well that the opposite side was gonna rip you and your family a new one, now bear the consequences.
Israel traded hundreds of people for 1 soldier, they do care about their civilians that’s why they are fighting a war against the most evil regime on earth currently (right after Iran, Syrian Assad and Hezbollah), but you don’t reward hostage taking with negotiations because it will only encourage that behavior. Israel did it with Shalit, which encouraged Hamass to take even more hostages, knowing full well that that is Israel’s weakness. This time, Hamass gets fucked in the ass for taking hostages so bad they’re gonna squeel like a piggy, and don’t ever think about taking hostages again.
West Bank is ethnically cleansed, how much did their population drop, 50%? 75%?, 90%? Oh those poor people must be suffering so much why don’t their billionaire and millionaire leaders who sit their asses in Qatar, Lebanon and Turkey do something for them? Why do they ask the poor to fight for them while they and their kids enjoy lives in 5 star hotels?
Wait, didn’t Gazans have free elections in 2005/6 when they elected Hamass? So they are ruled by their own government they chose. Or are Hamass terrorists and usurpers? Then Israel is doing Palestinians a favor by getting rid of Hamass tyrants for them, right? Why did Egypt not declare Gaza a free Palestinian state last time it occupied it? Why did Jordan not do the same for West Bank?
If your great-great-great grandfather occupied my land am I allowed to rape your mother and sisters? You won’t object too much if I also kill you first, right? After all I’m only resisting the occupation.
Yes, genocide of Palestinians committed by Hamass who are sacrificing those poor people for a war they could not win for 75 years, and will not win for the next 750 years.
Canada is sending another $40 million in aid to organizations that are helping Palestinians in Gaza after pausing funding to the UN's relief agency in the region.
Yup, and if not for the current war all 40 million of which would go into building tunnels and filling pockets of Hamass thugs and terrorists. It probably still will not be used for poor people there.
I don’t think you ever took even economics 101 in school because for almost all products there exists a price where you can actually increase your profits by decreasing the price because the larger sales volume offsets the revenue lost. Applies to your fridge example as well. You just assumed the same sales in both scenarios which is not even close to being realistic. And your Nvidia/AMD example ignores the high inflation seen during that period.
Got 6/10, for at least 2 pictures I looked at the outside corners of the eyes, if they match it’s likely AI, most real humans likely do not have symmetry there.
My favorite was the first Talos Principle, TP2 is also great, but the suspense in the story of 1 was so much I found it hard to put the game down (My Steam year in review shows I played it for 37 days straight). The puzzles in TP1 were also harder (TP2 had hard optional puzzles but the story was so long that I lost all will to do even 1 more puzzle by the game end, plus there’s no fast travel to those optional puzzles)
I didn’t like Titanfall 2 on the Steam Deck, the game is fine, but FPS games just dont work for me with joysticks.
In these situations I just keep checking, and making sure every move is a check to avoid stalemate. Mate in 1 or Mate in 49 I don’t care I just want the win.

Gravitational force is never truly zero. If it has mass, it is pulling at you, though it may be so close to zero that you don’t realize it.
