olafurp , to No Stupid Questions in So is Israel just going to completely overtake Palestine?

Sorry, I meant to reply to a comment

olafurp , (edited ) to No Stupid Questions in So is Israel just going to completely overtake Palestine?

Sorry, meant to reply to a Zionist comment justifying the Genocide. My sincere apologies.

To actually answer the question:

The war with Hezbollah is in my opinion likely. It has popular support among the Israelis and Netenyahu has been doing whatever to stave off an election. It'll still be an enormously costly war which will fill people with regret a couple of months after starting it.

There's another angle where he'll say "If you vote for me I'll get rid of Hezbollah once and for all like I did with Hamas" and then delay until he can say "Circumstances have changed" which I think is a better move.

PLEASE ASSUME EVERYTHING BELOW THIS LINE IS OUT OF CONTEXT AND MEANT AS A RESPONSE TO A GENOCIDAL ZIONIST BECAUSE I'M AN IDIOT


What kind of bubble do you live in? If you take 2 million people, close their airspace, ports and land borders they're not going to be happy.

On top of that Israel does the following:

  • imprison kids for throwing rocks at soldiers wearing armor
  • take people's houses, most recently in Sheikh Jarrah
  • Ban farmers from using water, promise water from other sources and don't deliver.
  • Close West Bank Airport
  • Settle lands in he West Bank.
  • Make Palestinians go to Military court with 99% conviction rate instead of a civil court.
  • Administrative detetention without giving any reason. (Because classified)
  • Withold evidence from courts that's used to convict them. (Because classified)
  • Settlements are both within the 1948 borders and even within the Olso accord Green line.
  • Beat people up and throw tear gas that go play at Al-Aqsa mosque.
  • Don't convict any settlers of violence.
  • Fondle women at check points when they open the trunk of their cars.
  • Limit imports to single item per pallet.
  • Limit work visas.
  • Limit family reunification as a way to immigrate across the border.
  • Random checkpoints that destroy tourism such as in Jericho.
  • Open policy of disproportial response to every reaction the Palestinians have.
  • Raid refugee camps and destroy their roads like in Jenin.
  • Kill journalists that cover the story such as Shireen Abu Akleh
  • Don't even convict the murdered because he was a soldier.
  • Oh and kill/wound 5% of Gaza, half of which are children, for good measure.

When people are suffocating because someone has their foot on their throat they react. Nobody should be surprised that Oct 7 happened. Especially after Israel was warned many times that they would do something if they continue raiding one of the holiest sites in Islam.

olafurp , to No Stupid Questions in Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed?

I remember that one miracle closely resembles CPR. He put his hands on a body and brought it back to life.

olafurp , to No Stupid Questions in Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed?

Archaeology in good at giving us clues about the living thing. References to people existing is almost purely based on text people wrote. The proof would be someone writing down "Chrestos, popular among the poor was crucified for his crimes for spreading heresy" as a contemporary. But since the earliest reference we have is a century after his death it's not necessarily accurate or true.

Praise be Sol Invictus, the real OG Jesus

olafurp , to Showerthoughts in Technically, almost all video games are puzzle games.

The cookie clicker could still be a puzzle as long as you make it impossible to win without using some power-ups because you'll die sooner of old age. That's assuming there is a win condition in it. Other clickers are genuinely not puzzles since they're infinite and not winnable. Not winnable makes them not solvable so they can't be a puzzle.

Killings usually happen outside the borders

Beauracracy is one big puzzle of locks and keys where applications are keys and passports are keys to border control locks etc.

According to his interpretation of the genre it would be an action-strategy game which arguably fits tetris better. Your underlying point implies that all strategy games are puzzle games which this guy doesn't agree with I think.

olafurp , to Showerthoughts in Technically, almost all video games are puzzle games.

I'm going to provide a counter-example to disprove. A slot machine is a video game that is not a puzzle since there is no solution.

I agree with "Most video games are puzzle games" though. There are exceptions like Rail Shooter. Button mash only game. Bullet hell games don't really have a puzzle element since solution is already shown by areas having no bullets in them.

I feel like this statement also hinges on "all video game strategy is a puzzle" people might disagree with.

olafurp , to Showerthoughts in Shower thoughts are wasting water.

To absolutely minimise the water usage you could do a more old school "shower" by just putting some water in a bucket with a sponge.

  1. Put some water on your body with a quick sponge rinse.
  2. Apply soap.
  3. Use sponge to rinse off soap.

Then later use the bucket as toilet refill.

olafurp , to Ask Lemmy in Vegans of Lemmy, would you eat lab-grown meat?

That's true, I shouldn't since I'm not vegan.

olafurp , to Ask Lemmy in which one is the best anime in your opinion?

I have a lot of favorites, I'll just leave a short list here.

  • Steins Gate
  • Jojo's
  • Chainsaw Man
  • One punch man
  • Solo leveling
olafurp , to Ask Lemmy in Vegans of Lemmy, would you eat lab-grown meat?

Yeeeah, it's not going to be environmentally friendly, probably the opposite. In the lab grown meat discussions people seem to forget how incredibly efficient cows are at converting biomass to muscle.

For lab grown meat you'd need a circulation system that can reach all parts of the meat and provide it with enough nutrients, proteins, supplements and all that while also removing by-products such as ammonia that result from chemical processes in the cells.

So you'll end up needing a circulation system, immune system, bones for the meat to not get crushed by it's own weight ideally, recycling system like the liver and logistical system to back everything up, and that's assuming the whole process will be energy efficient.

Adding a brain to it makes essentially gives you all parts of a cow except the cow can largely produce the meat without any oversight and will do all the nutrient differential equations automatically.

We're still decades away from being able to scale this up while being within the same order of magnitude in cost. It's far easier to do a decade of chemistry and biology on textured soy meat to perfectly replicate the flavor, texture and nutrient profile of cow meat. This shouldn't come as a shock since plants are more efficient than animals in creating protein.

I'm personally hoping for genetically modified soy beans that have good amount of the amino acid leucine which is lacking in most plant protein.

Sidenote: We are close to fixing the methane emissions of cows by feeding them a supplement mixed with the feed.

olafurp , to Linux Gaming in Vulkan or DirectX on Linux?

Warhammer TW 3 "Native" mode sucks ass. Running Direct X on Proton is much better.
