Great, even more future space junk.

That's not entirely true but your are changing the subject.

Have the Palestinians been ethnically cleansed? Yes or no? Have they been oppressed for almost 80 years? Yes or no?

Including a sizeable Jewish minority.

There was a Jewish community in Palestine (mostly centered around Jerusalem) but they did not come up with the Zionist project. Actually, many were opposed and some of their descendants still do so to this day.

The ethnic cleansing/settler-colonialist paradigm is easy for outsiders to project on the region

The (European) architects of the Zionist project literally called it colonialism.

"You are being invited to help make history. It doesn’t involve Africa, but a piece of Asia Minor; not Englishmen but Jews … How, then, do I happen to turn to you since this is an out-of-the-way matter for you? How indeed? Because it is something colonial." -Theodor Herzl

Ze'ev Jabotinsky literally compared the Zionist project to other colonial projects when arguing the people living there would fight back against their colonizers and the need for numbers and strength to counter them.

Facts is that most of the palestinians fled in the earlier phases of the war, and the very little instances of forced evacuation of the population where within the borders of Israel/Palestine, not out of the country.

People don't leave their homes voluntarily. They leave because of violence or fear of violence. The fact is there were Palestinians living all over the map at the "before" stage. Settlers came to form an ethno-state. The orders given to the Zionist militia commanders were literally "cleanse" this or that village. In the "after" stage, all these people are gone from most of the map and the ones trying to return to their homes are shot dead.

That is ethnic cleansing period. The goal was to create an ethno-state in a place where people already lived. These people have been getting confined to smaller and smaller areas ever since. And the oppression continues to this day.

Regarding the "State founded on ethnic cleaning", in recent times this includes entire South America, parts of Africa, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand.

So what? What's your point?

Many states were "founded on ethnic cleansing".

So what? I don't get your point.

Israel has continuously been oppressing the Palestinians for almost 80 years. That is immoral. Israel is in the wrong.

They are widely considered to posses a right of existence, and even expected to defend their citizens.

You are just jumping to a different topic. I said nothing about its right to exist.

It's a state founded on ethnic cleansing. People were already living there when settlers came to create an ethno-state for themselves.

In late 1947, their militias begun a campaign of massacring and expelling Palestinians from mostly defenseless villages. These refuges pouring into neighboring Arab countries is what prompted the 1948 war. When the war ended, they murdered any civilians trying to return to their homes.

Gaza was originally a refugee camp created for receiving these expelled people.

The ethnic cleansing and denial of rights has continued ever since. The current Gaza war is not when the crimes against humanity started. Israel has been commiting crimes against humanity throughout its entire existence.

This is amazing.

I use to have a thick book filled with a bunch BASIC game listings. You had to type them in yourself to play.

I remember there was a version of this Star Trek game inside and I had tried it.

I can't remember the title of the book.

I remember wanting this so bad as a teen.

Little could I've predicted that only a few short years later I could play all the Genesis games I ever dreamed of thanks to Genecyst and a bunch of ROMs.

"Them" are the rich and we are the rest.

Where do we draw the line? How about those of use who work to earn a living versus those who make money because they own a lot rather than because they work for it.

Of course, this does not include those who have worked all their life and have retired to live off their accumulated funds.

I just wish to remind everyone that there is a lot more of us than there is of them.

That would explain why search results on Amazon are now indistinguishable with those on AliExpress.

Not having an'input' button on a TV remote is really stupid.

I actually document my code they way the article recommends. I even link to the documentation when new people get involved with the code base and most of the time they don't bother reading it.

I constantly get asked questions that are explicitly answered in the documentation.

This is hilarious

I've been enjoying TMNT: Shredder's Revenge.

All their games I tried work with a controller too if you don't like gaming with a touchscreen.

The one that blew my mind was Payback: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wApAbxZY9k

It's GTA1/2 clone with an overhead view of a full 3D world.

I can certainly relate but sometimes I wonder if the people we consider "normal" don't also see themselves as outside the norm.

This sounds like a scam.

This was original created for the US Air Force.

I've only disputed a credit card charge once in my entire life (which I won) and it really was a fraudulent charge.

Other than that, the only credit card purchases I had issues with were done on online marketplaces (eBay and AliExpress) and in 100% of cases I was able to resolve it with the marketplace's own resolution system. In many cases, the vendor themselves refunded me without the need to have the marketplace arbitrate.

How about transporting it under water?

This article is pretty light on details. Do we have data comparing sample microbiomes taken in the 80's compared to today? Are the specific bacterial species that have been identified that prevent or promote weight gain? Is there research into restoring the microbiome?

Are you a reader of virtually fun?

That's exactly the kind of topics they explore.

I've been reading Matt Strassler's blog for over a decade now.

I really like how unlike other science communicators in many of his articles he assumes you have some university level education. It explains concepts I have not found outside actual textbooks but in a way that is very understandable to an engineer such as myself.

At home, I use VMware Player and BlueStacks under Windows. In Linux, a just straight up use Qemu. I have shell scripts to launch my different VMs with the appropriate parameters.

At work I use Qemu for Windows with batch files to launch my VMs. I have hyper v enabled and Qemu performs quite well using the whp accelerator.

My workplace doesn't want to pay for a solution and the IT department is so paranoid about VirtualBox that they have a tool that periodically scans our laptop and automatically uninstalls it if it's detected.

Cool. Thanks.

It says it is not compatible with neither my phone (Android 12) nor tablet (Android 11).

What Android API version did you target?

Where I work, our target devices run RHEL but many of our dev workstations run Rocky Linux.

If the software I write behaves on my workstation but then malfunctions on my target device because a bug was only fixed in Rocky Linux, that would be very annoying.

I want stuff to run the exact same way on both so that I can develop workarounds if needed before even deploying to the targets.
