That needs to come with an additional allowance for pumpkin spice lattes.

Thanks, Bill.

Well, for example, a metric ass-ton of shoes and shoe components are made in Bosnia. But hardly anyone still makes the traditional opanci in the traditional way; there's one guy left in the whole Hercegovina that does. And they are required for the national costume, so they are still important. But the economics just don't work out.

That's pretty normal. I think bro is pointing at either a general strike or regicide, both of which are highly frowned upon.

No, but rich assholes like getting away from it all too.

Please move to Texas. Those of us who like waterfalls, are not suicidal, and who will accept beautiful nature in lieu of a functional state government appreciate you freeing the capacity for someone else.

Not if you disable JavaScript.

I have a fun story. I was allowed to set up an HTTP server on the network at work. Boss wanted me to be an Apache expert. I didn't get permission to run a BZFlag server, modded to allow infinite reload. I had rotating servers with goofy stuff like blank maps, all flags Laser, with infinite reload. I remember the frantic call from my boss about a DDoS attack hitting my server. The thing I missed was each shot is a single UDP packet, so I was basically DDoSing the entire network. Woops

Which reminds me, where is @simonw ? lol

I think the clue is in bro's name: https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=TiredOfLife

There's no proof of that. However there is proof of Israel invoking the Hannibal directive on Oct 7 and torching hundreds of cars from the air, which were then buried.

Have you seen the video evidence Israel says they have of Hamas's brutality? I haven't either.

> destruction of Israel and murder of all Jews

You people keep saying this is what Hamas wants. I've read the original scary charter everyone keeps pointing at. They never say to murder Jews. They do say to dismantle the apartheid state and replace it with a justice oriented one. That doesn't require marching 7 million Israelis into the sea, it just requires a regime change.

And while they're at it, forget about Israel being an ethnostate and give the 5 million Arabs without any representation a vote.

If you knew anything about how Iran is doing this, you'd know they are happy to throw money or materiel at anyone who can put together a force against Israel, or even Serbia during the Bosnian war. They hardly direct or control anything afield, other than being mostly ideologically aligned. They don't need to pull puppet strings like you say. They happily work with resistance forces regardless of sect.

It was expert timing on the commenter's and the developer's part. Opus 5.5 still doesn't show under coding though.

If you're the sort of person who ignores parts of a book you're reading, try Mindfulness in Plain English by Bhante G.

Yes. This kills the sentient AI.

You've found the load-bearing seam, and my explanation was worse than it actually is.

Good riddance. He can eat zaqqum fruit with Hitler.

Hey, at least a bowl of burgoo tastes good, unlike some community slops.

I was a cool kid! I used FrontPage :D

Most of these are good points though with the right framing.

Oh, it done found like 50 of those

I find it funny that being Texan == gun nut. But I'm from Oregon, lots of OreGUNians around here.

QBasic Gorillas was poggers, but I'm more of a Nibbles guy myself

Many native Iberians who were Muslim were either driven out or were paid an unexpected visit by the Spanish Inquisition.

He glosses over Muslim history and al-Andalus with a "the Muslims were driven out of Spain" like Spain itself wasn't Muslim for almost 800 years. And then, the Enlightenment created the most peaceful time in human history, really? Seems like mutual assured destruction is what makes peace, not sound philosophy.

People are forgetful and argumentative, by nature. The sooner we realize that, the sooner we can have nice things.

"Ethnic cleansing" is such a nice word. "Etničko čišćenje" is what the Serb paramilitaries called raping and murdering a population to make them leave. "Remove kebab" as the later meme culture would call it. It's so trite, and a little funny it seems. We should call it what it is: *genocide*; thereby robbing the perpetrators of any semblance of cleanliness or propriety.

Monsters are filthy. Let's call them the filthy monsters they are.

No. Better technology is only making it more efficient. We need better humanity, better morals, better policing of criminals in power.

Captain Obvious? Is that you??
