Insurgencies have been squashed in recent past (without resorting to nuclear weapons). Search for the end of Tamil tigers in Sri Lanka, Russia crushing Islamists in Chechnya, China crushing Islamists in Xinxiang (or however it's spelled), China crushing the Tibetan insurgency, and currently, Israel almost crushing Hamas.

Lolwut? I use Vim plugin for Visual Studio every day and although pretty limited compared to full fledged Vim, it's still extremely powerful. Besides hjkl movement, I still get splits, registers, macros, search/replace, formatting and the aforementioned features are easily 95% of Vim features I used to use Vim for. So the limited experience is still pretty great and I don't know how to use VS without this plugin anymore.

It's amazing if you were a poor kid from Hyderabad (i.e. to have material stability), but not so good otherwise.

Indeed. It is amazing to not starve and live a prosperous yet "boring" lives. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I have one of those big phones with 6inch+ screen (they're pretty mainstream these days) and I wish I had something smaller. Hard af to use with single hand and screen is still pretty small for comfortably reading anything or consuming media (you have to hold it very close to your face for too long to be comfortable). Wish I had bought something cheaper and smaller and gotten a tablet with the extra money I saved. I'm buying a tablet anyways now.

When rules are applied selectively and one nation is singled out for bulk of the vitriol, it's 100% valid to ask why someone else wasn't penalized for doing something much much worse. And you're right, most of Israel bashing is antisemitism.
