They could both be doing genocides you know. It doesn't make Biden's lack of response and continual support of Israel good, and it deserves to be criticized.

What a great idea for a page. People are becoming blase about privacy even though it's still important.

Thanks for the explanation! I recall something sort of similar happening years ago with Microsoft recommending WPF over WebForms even when it didn't have all the same functionality or data controls yet. But at least they had different design considerations, separation of concerns and stuff. Still not quite sure what the different design ideas behind Xamarin and Maui is, but I probably have to actually try Maui to figure it out. Going purely by reading, it just seemed like the same purpose as Xamarin, so it didn't seem like big enough impetus to learn something new yet and I haven't been pushed to yet from an outside source, like my work. But I'm sure I'll have to eventually if I keep working in industry places that like Microsoft enterprise software frameworks.

I haven't looked into Maui yet, but is not more reliable than Xamarin yet?

Great picture! So lucky

So they've played this game before, of calling humanitarian and rights groups terrorists.

Straight from a spy movie lol. It's like the Cold War still up in here apparently.

Kung Fu Hustle is so good! I still think about some of those fights randomly sometimes.

Yup, sounds like a classic miscommunication. I think we should all compromise and just agree capitalism is the problem lol.

Makes sense. I was considering getting a Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch for kinda that same reason.

Wait, that looks kinda like my posture. Shit lol, how do I fix that?

Been playing PC or PS5 games instead? Or just haven't been gaming much?

It's getting really cyberpunk all in here lol

They've also been heavily investing in green tech for years way more than the US, so it's probably related.

Seriously, we already left Saudi Arabia get away with chopping up a journalist for a US publication for that reason. And have a base in Iraq. And ostensibly Pakistan is our ally. And Turkey is in NATO. How many allies do we need in that area? And why do they all have to be terrible?

They may not have done the biggest atrocities that were rumored, but they still purposefully kidnapped civilians, which I'm pretty sure is a war crime.

They have to maintain some veneer of legitimacy for international audience as well. They're not going to nuke Gaza lol. Other than that, they're going at a pretty damn good click, though. They got down to only one major city left and Northern Gaza is completely uninhabitable.

That part is true. It is usually extremely difficult to prove. It's why the case on whether it's genocide can take years. And why people saying the ICC hasn't said its 100% genocide yet aren't arguing in good faith. They said it's plausible, which is already huge. Anything more wasn't realistic, as it will take them most likely literal years to finish the case out, but we can call it as we see it before then.

In this case, it's still okay for everyone else to say it because we don't have to prove it legally, and it's pretty obvious to the eye and ear with the mountain of evidence given by South Africa. Luckily, Israeli government officials and soldiers have said openly many statements basically proving that they want to do a genocide. They've called Palestinians animals, compared Gaza to Amalek, said they need to erase the Gaza strip from the earth, said there are no involved civilians, been encouraging another ethnic cleansing through emigration as well ("If there are 100,000 or 200,000 Arabs in Gaza and not 2 million Arabs, the entire discussion on the day after will be totally different."), etc. Those quotes and statements have always helped me feel more comfortable calling it what it is.

Did I also detect some racism at the end of the video, too?

This picture is dystopian as fuck. Godamn. Never seen it before, but that's something. Waving a flag of love while in a land turned into rubble, flattenes by bombs, no doubt standing on the buried bodies of children. Such insincere appropriation of the word love. Damn. This one hurts.
