China tells NATO not to create chaos in Asia and rejects label of 'enabler' of Russia's Ukraine war
  • You're not a teenager and you still think spewing nonsense emotions at strangers accomplishes something?

    Jesus.

  • Russia Attacks Hospitals in Ukraine. Israel Does the Same in Gaza. The U.S. Response Couldn’t Be More Different.
  • Ukraine doesn't have combatants using their hospitals as bunkers.

    Hamas does use hospitals as bunkers for their combatants. This is actually a war crime. The reason it's a war crime to station combatants in a hospital is because it makes the hospital a valid military target, which is bad for the civilian population.

    But Hamas doesn't give a shit about the civilian population and puts their combatants in hospitals anyway. The goal is propaganda so they can get donations and the people that only want to hear one side of the story aren't going to care about "little details" about Hamas war crimes. The leaders of Hamas living in Qatar are actual billionaires because they've monetized the suffering of Palestinians. But then so has TikTok, and this intercept site linked above which is making emotional pleas to get in on the donation action.

    Grifting off of Palestinian suffering is getting to be a big business now.

  • The power usage wouldn't be a problem if the electricity were generated in a green way.

    If only the energy sector had a workforce experienced in building offshore structures that could build offshore wind farms. And maybe a workforce that had experience in drilling that could develop geothermal energy.

    Of course we also need an energy sector that had a lot of financial resources to put into these kinds of investments.

    If only the energy sector had these kinds of resources, a big sphere drawing a lot of electricity wouldn't be a problem.

  • Microsoft is reportedly banning Palestinians in the U.S. for life for calling relatives in Gaza
  • Many Palestinian protests have people cosplaying Hamas and waving Hamas flags.

    Hanging out with people that like to dress up as a member of a group that wants to kill Jews makes someone a little antisemitic I think.

    Denying that there's an antisemitism problem in the Palestinian movement doesn't mean it doesn't exist. In fact that's the sort of attitude that allows it to persist.

  • F-16 Fighters Now En Route to Ukraine
  • It's basically impossible to keep something like this a secret. The pilots have been in training a long time and they're not just sending planes, but also the means to maintain them.

    Besides there are dangers in keeping it secret. Having F-16s suddenly doing attack runs on the Russian military out of nowhere could result in the Kremlin coming to the wrong conclusions.

  • Hamas is a fascist group that's supplied with weapons by Iran that routinely fires rockets at civilians.

    Russia is a fascist country that's supplied with weapons by Iran that routinely fires rockets at civilians.

    There are groups in the West that think Ukraine shouldn't be supplied with weapons. There are groups in the west that think Israel shouldn't be supplied with weapons.

    Both Ukraine and Israel is the target of a lot of propaganda. Main difference is Ukraine has won the propaganda war, while Israel has lost the propaganda war.

  • Zelenskyy: Modi is a ‘huge disappointment’ for hugging Putin
  • Lets also not use past problems to justify fascists making problems right now.

  • The "Don't vote" crowd seems to have an agenda
  • Ok so you're not good at abstract thought, and also not good with analogies.

    Apparently you can only learn through narratives? So... Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra when the walls came down?

  • It's one of those things wher eI'm sure it's fine if you learn it. But it's not DOS CMD, but also not bash.

    So instead of improving CMD to have more features or just going all the way and offering an official bash implementation, they want me to learn a third thing. Just don't have time for it.

  • There many things wrong with many zoning laws. Of course it's dependent municipality, but in many places light residential is given preference, neighbourhoods are designed for driving. Wide roads designed to have higher speed limits so aren't all that walkable. Zoning is done separately for residential, commercial, and industrial. So there's no shops close by to walk to, so gotta use a car.

    It all adds up to neighbourhoods that aren't all that livable. But older parts of a cities that were built before all this zoning are walkable, there's a good mix of housing and shops. Those places are were people want to live. But also where tourists want to stay.

    Bad zoning laws indeed.

  • Toronto police increase presence along hospital row after pro-Palestinian protest

    Protest swiftly condemned by all levels of government; organizing group denies hospital targeted

    Toronto police say they are increasing their presence along hospital row after a pro-Palestinian protest downtown on Monday night, including outside Mount Sinai Hospital.

    Toronto Police Service spokesperson Stephanie Sayer told CBC News the increased police presence is to ensure that essential hospital services and emergency routes remain accessible.

    "Interfering with the operations of a hospital is not acceptable," Sayer wrote in an email.

    Police have not said if the hospital's operations were impacted by the protest. The hospital has not responded to CBC News's request for comment.

    "The Toronto Police Service is investigating several incidents that occurred in front of Mount Sinai Hospital and along the demonstration route. As we have said before, officers use their discretion during large crowd demonstrations and even if arrests are not deemed safe to make at the time, investigations will continue and charges can be laid at a later date," Sayer said.

    UN agency probes staff suspected of role in Oct. 7 attacks

    GENEVA, Jan 26 (Reuters) - The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said on Friday it had opened an investigation into several employees suspected of involvement in the Oct. 7 attacks in Israel by Hamas and that it had severed ties with those staff members. "The Israeli authorities have provided UNRWA with information about the alleged involvement of several UNRWA employees in the horrific attacks on Israel on October 7," said Philippe Lazzarini, UNRWA Commissioner-General.

    "To protect the agency's ability to deliver humanitarian assistance, I have taken the decision to immediately terminate the contracts of these staff members and launch an investigation in order to establish the truth without delay."

    Lazzarini did not disclose the number of employees allegedly involved in the attacks, nor the nature of their alleged involvement. He said, however, that "any UNRWA employee who was involved in acts of terror" would be held accountable, including through criminal prosecution.
