C# didn’t exist in the early 90s, perhaps you’re thinking of another language?

4·22 days agoThe western Australia one is soooo wrong. There’s like 10 people in that side of the country and they’re all billionaire miners lol.
too broke to afford itself
If western Australia were an independent nation it would be in the top 50 largest economies in the world.

I’ve worked in commercial environments where we’ve had the rug pulled on us in exactly this manner.
Sure today Tesla isn’t charging you, but the moment it is expedient for them, they will.
A lot of users here will have had the same experience with Reddit – it’s not unprecedented.
4·1 month agoThat’s a bad comparison. The Wikipedia decision was made specifically because the experts – i.e actual scholars of genocide and war crimes – have a very widely held consensus that a genocide is occurring.
Do you disagree with the experts?
I feel the same way about Americans.

The United states holocaust museum has a pretty good ‘plain text’ definition of genocide, which perfectly captures what the Israelis are trying to do to the Palestinians as genocide.
The article also has some useful ‘plain text’ descriptions of ethnic cleansing, crimes against humanity, mass atrocities, mass killing and war crimes.

The astute reader will notice that the Israelis are actually guilty of all of these mass atrocities as part of their attempts to genocide the Palestinians.
Genocide is defined as any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group.
The acts are:
- Killing members of the group.
- Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group.
- Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.
- Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group.
- Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
Except for perhaps the last point, there’s no person that could argue that Israel has not perpetrated these acts against the Palestinians.
All that leaves then is the intent aspect of genocide.
The Israelis are very open about their desire to destroy Palestine. Law4palestine has a collection for quotes from current and former legislators which capture their genocidal intent:
If you don’t feel like reading through that, here’s an excellent summary of other evidence of Israel’s genocidal intent from Jewish Currents:

*Edit: added the link to the legislators list. Left the decision makers list as it just serves to hammer the point home
What creature is a Zionist in the morning, anti-genocide in the afternoon and uses Arch btw in the evening?
You’re putting a lot of faith in whoever packages the ‘distro’.
Obviously you have the same problem with trusting FOSS software distributions, but it’s mitigated by things like Linus’ Law and reproducible builds.
That being said, I personally use tiny11 VMs for certain non-critical things at home and work. I’d never use it for anything security related, or as my main OS, as there is a non-negligible chance that it’s compromised (and there’s basically no way of knowing).
I live in a country with a nominally ‘labor’ government that has stood in the way of unions protesting the genocide in Gaza and is actively working to suppress union led protests.
We in the west are in for a very rude shock in the coming years. Today it’s clamping down on protests for Palestine, tomorrow its teargas and truncheons for strikers.
A lot of people don’t understand that if we don’t stand up for the Palestinians, we won’t have a snowballs chance when it comes to seriously protesting our own governments and the corporations that control them.
Executing children in the street, for the crime of being Palestinian.
This is what genocide looks like.
1332·10 months agoNo, it isn’t. You can fully believe in people’s ability to rehabilitate and change, while also being aware that not everyone rehabilitates and changes.
The needs of the perpetrator of a crime need to be balanced against the needs of society at large. This is why you get your license taken away from you when you drink and drive, or why you end up on a sex offenders register.
In this case, there’s a valid argument to be made that this person represents a danger to society, and the need to protect/inform people from him outweighs his desire to not have past crimes revealed.

I’ll bet you’re an MSP monkey or a DC tech
It is marketing though. It’s on the box of a commercial product, what else is it?
