I use systemd-nspawn to absolutely pissoff everyone :)

Even if they wanted to, how would they accomplish that?

2 out of the 4 countries boardings Israel, Jordan and Egypt, have peace treaties with Israel. The Arab gulf nations were in the processes of normalizing relations.

Lebanon(Hezbollah) and Syria were basic Iranians proxy.

The only country that’s hellbent on wiping Israel off the map, beyond just lip service, is Iran.

Unlike sewing, fabric manufacturing is mostly automated

Fast fashion still uses fabric rolles as raw materials.

The fabrics used in fast fashion are chosen for cost and workability, not durability and environmental impact.

premade fashion does produce fabric waste, it’s unavoidable. However, the waste is lower than self made clothes due to the differences is production volume and optimization.

If you make your own clothes, you get to choose better materials, remove at least one step from the chain of exploitation, and learn how to repair your own clothes along the way.

Not as a title, but if i recall correctly, the first first article of the old constitution states that the Syrian Arab Republic is a Democracy. Also for what it’s worth, the Baath party was also officially “socialist”.

The lack of a monarchy isn’t enough to qualify as a republic, the people need to also hold some sort of power.

and Baathist Syria was totally a democratic republic

Why would being self serving and old disqualify him from being a dictator?

He’s behavior so far seems consistent with dictatorship. Disregarding laws, undermining democracy, promising protection for those who fall in line and retribution for those who don’t, surrounding himself with yes-men… and I could go on for a while

What’s with this black and white mentality? They’re absolutely leaches, but that doesn’t fully define then. They are probably other things as well, that are hopefully good.

The original article is about global numbers, not just the USA.

Sometimes kernel level anti-cheat is good for the consumer, actually.

I was about to relapse and install league of legends, but then vanguard for league was announced, which immediately cured me <3

There’s a flatpak steam package. You could also use distrobox to install containerized packages from other distros.

I’ve never seen a more Lebanese picture in my life

I’m guessing this “quote” is from this article.

If that’s the case, here is the actual paragraph:

The prisoner would be bent over a desk with his hands placed in front of him, handcuffed.

The female soldier, standing behind him, would insert her fingers and other objects into his rectum.

When he reacted or moved back, the soldier standing in front of him would hit him in the head and force him to bend again.

And further down in the article

“Nothing was more humiliating than when they made me take off my clothes, or when they inserted this object into my butt, or when a young female soldier kept [touching my penis].”

English is not my first language, but this does not sound like cavity search

I speak a slightly different dialect, but it sounds authentic to me. Still, you never know these days.

He says more stuff, but can’t make the rest out.

This is looking less and less like a war by the day, and more and more like mass execution.

Welcome to the the Palestinian holocaust…

Demographic from Wikipedia:

0–14 years: 44.1% 15–24 years: 21.3% 25–54 years: 28.5% 55–64 years: 3.5% 65 years and over: 2.6%

something like 75% of all Gazans were either not born or not of voting age when the last elections were held 16 years ago.

Goddamned time traveling Palestinians!
