Hopefully Fedora and others forcing users onto Wayland is going to help push Wayland devs to fixing the stuff that’s breaking compatibility for everyone still stuck on X11.
Good for Fedora for being a trendsetter regarding Wayland, though I’m sure others are right in suggesting that this is probably not being done with KDE’s express approval lol.
Hamas hasn’t even been in control of half of palestine for decades and you know what happened there? MORE violence against the occupied palestinians. MORE displacement. MORE settlement and murder.
The part Zionist apologists wont admit is that Hamas and their armed resistance is the only reason Gaza has survived as long as it has. Making colonists afraid of setting foot in Gaza is the only reason there’s any palestine left to fight over.
If Israel disappeared tomorrow, the genocide stops. If Hamas disappeared tomorrow, the genocide continues.
Those are the stakes. But don’t let me stop you cheering on the death of children behind the crocodile tears of “but hamas”.
Jews, Muslims, and Christians all lived in the region of Israel-Palestine (well, just Palestine) before 1948. Israel was a concept by nationalists and Europeans who saw an opportunity to get rid of Jewish refugees as well as project European military interests into the Arab world.
Religion was a useful tool in dividing these people, but nationalism and colonialism played the role in turning these divisions into wars.
They stopped defending themselves roughly 3 days before the Hamas attack. Not sure what level of genocide was comfortable to you?
Those tunnels were always a propaganda tool of Israel too, by the way. They were built because of the total blockade of Gaza that made tunnels the only method for Palestinians to trade with Israel and the wider world (Remember Israel blockades Gaza’s access to the ocean too!). If these were purely military in their purpose, Israel would’ve cleared them all out a long time ago but the reality is that these tunnels were a benefit to the economy of both sides.
Hamas using those tunnels to resist the Israeli occupation and cleansing of Palestinian communities is a side-effect, sure, but you’re clearly too receptive of the propaganda of Israel if you think tunnels are an excuse for indiscriminate bombing of civilian infrastructure.
If you exclude exclusively political lemmy instances like lemmygrad, lemmy is at most slightly more politically liberal than reddit, but without astroturfing racists being able to declare what makes it to the front page.
I no longer have the cognitive dissonance to condemn any Palestinian for resisting Israel.
If you fight against Israel, you’re called Hamas - No matter who you are or what your opinions are. I simply will not condemn Hamas knowing that most of the “Hamas” being targeted at actually children armed with nothing more than stones and grief. I won’t condemn people driven to violence and aggression by a regime that is a million times more violent and aggressive.
Hamas was a tool of Israel and the people who spend endless days arguing over Hamas are the victims of this tool - The only way to defeat the ghost of Hamas is to support them. Only then does the Israeli propaganda fall apart, and thus the necessity of Israel to maintain Hamas as a scapegoat for terror.
This is why Palestinians are staying at home despite the threats.
They know that if they leave they’ll be bombed.
They know that if they stay they’ll be bombed.
They know that if they leave and survive they’ll be permanent refugees to a world that despises them.
They know that if they leave and survive and are allowed to return, they’ll be clearing rubble for the rest of their lives (until Israel bombs them again)
No matter what, they’re doomed to be a tool for propaganda or a corpse. I’d rather be a corpse in my own home in a final act of defiance than a statistic of a settler colonial cleansing project.
As long as Israel continues claiming its genocide is in the name of every Jewish person around the world, despite a plurality of Jewish people standing up to this narrative and condemning Zionism, people are going to be driven into Antisemitism.
The exact same tactic was used by Daesh to drive people to islamophobia – The more afraid your target audience is, the more likely they’re going to support your fascist solutions.
Actually, warning civilians you’re going to bomb their families and turn their farmland to rubble, then slowly condense the remaining population into concentration camps for decades until they can finally be wiped out under protection of the US and EU is still a genocide.
I’m no sysadmin or IT prof. myself, but here’s my take.
With Nix, you can build out an entire Linux operating system from the ground up with a few files. You can specify the exact versions of software and even dependencies of software so that every single installation of your OS is going to be identical. You can upgrade specific software and roll it back if it has problems. Dependencies are managed through Nix in a way that allows them to be shared where necessary (saving space) but diverging when necessary to prevent dependency hell.
The best part, imo, is that all software is from source. You don’t have to rely on package maintainers at RHEL or Debian to keep apps up to date and working - Your system will download binary blobs from the cache server or build apps from source when theyre not available. You get to have bleeding-edge apps (if you want them) without the pain of waiting 6+ months for them to come in from your distro updates.
It’s quite immature when it comes to tools that make it easier to pick up and learn, so there’s drawbacks in that regard since many IT pros will stick to tools that enterprise systems offer that make managing their infra MUCH easier.
However, Nix is imo the future of non-flatpak applications because it’s simply smarter, faster, and more declarative than RPM, Deb, Apk could ever be.
