Seeing that they need quite a lot of clean water, which is not widely available everywhere during the entire year in big amounts, especially with these droughts due to climate change.
Four relatives of a journalist were killed on Sunday in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, the official Lebanese agency NNA said, adding that the journalist was also wounded.
Concluding her post, the Academy Award winner called for a ceasefire, writing: "Palestinian and Israeli lives—and the lives of all people globally—matter equally." "Anything that can prevent civilian casualties and save lives most be done," she said....
The letter posted on Israeli journalist Amit Segal channel to 184,000 followers says that "the nation of Israel will stand up bravery to strike at its enemies," according to a translation of the Hebrew. It goes on to justify targeting sites even "when the enemy hides behind a human shield."
""If in such an action innocent blood is spilled, the blame will fall only on the head of the murderers," the letter added, referring to the Hamas militants Israel is fighting against."
This is so infuriatingly fucking stupid and nasty it makes my head hurt.
Shall we apply the same twisted logic to the Palestinians who keep getting murdered by the "settlers", or would that be antisemitic of me?
“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”...
This was Putin's biggest mistake. He expected the Ukrainian people to just roll over but history has shown over and over that people fighting for their lives can be a fearsome force against an army that would rather be anywhere else.
I'd just be straight with him, in a kind manner tell him his behavior is something you're having a hard time with, that you expect him to take your feedback on board, and that you're not interested in dealing with him acting out because his feelings got hurt.
Document everything, give him a chance to modify his behavior and if he persists, you've given him a chance and now it's time to talk to HR because you've done everything you can reasonably be expected to do. It's not your fight anymore.
So, nothing? With a mind like yours we could solve this conflict once and for all.
Straight to petty little barbs? I guess I upset you.
Gaza slaughtered innocent children. Doing nothing is an unreasonable expectation.
Now do Israel, they have blood on their hands too. Do you think Hamas committed the atrocities they did for funsies? That you're blind to this speaks more to your bias than your understanding of the history of this conflict.
One which you would never accept had your children been murdered.
You're so close to figuring it out, keep going. I believe in you.
The terrorists must be brought to justice, and yet you want them to be left alone?
Did I say that? No I didn't. You started with an ad hominem and ended with a straw man, all in the same paragraph. Nice work, champ.
You want me to single-handedly solve the Israeli-Palestine problem? Do you really think that’s some kind of “gotcha” moment? It’s not.
We could start with the Israelis ditching Netanyahu and electing a non-war criminal who is committed to a two state solution. That would be a good start.
I would've thought that was pretty simple. If Israel can kill them without the loss of civilian life, have at it. If they can't, then they shouldn't do that.
Researchers have devised an attack that forces Apple’s Safari browser to divulge passwords, Gmail message content, and other secrets by exploiting a side channel vulnerability in the A- and M-series CPUs running modern iOS and macOS devices....
Of course they bury the important bit right at the end of the article:
“There’s no indication that this vulnerability has ever been discovered before, let alone actively exploited in the wild.
That means the chances of this vulnerability being used in real-world attacks anytime soon are slim, if not next to zero. It’s likely that Apple’s scheduled fix will be in place long before an iLeakage-style attack site does become viable.”

You're not objectively correct, "designated as terrorist by current and former national governments, and inter-governmental organizations" - they've expressed an opinion. You're taking that opinion and presenting it as objective fact.
The guy has been reporting since before many of us were even born. If you can catch his show on the BBC it's a great antidote to the sensationalized, biased reporting that passes for journalism these days.
I guess it depends on how you define “real processing power”. I run Windows on Arm on my Mac Studio through Parallels. I installed Steam and played Civ 4 and it’s great. Sure, it’s an old game but it runs smoothly.
What do you want them to do? Grow gills and go live in the sea? Even that wouldn't work as the Israeli navy shoots at anyone who gets too far away from the shore. You have no clue what you're talking about.
