I fully believe there are Jewish people who are against this. However, the history books will focus on the acts of the IDF and not the vocal minority.
Minority of what? There are polls of Jews in the UK and USA that show a majority disapproving of Israel’s current government.
“She has sadly transformed her activism into a platform for vile Jew-hatred,” the organization said.
Thunberg, 21, was arrested on September 4 while demonstrating with Students Against the Occupation, who called on Copenhagen University to cut ties with Israel, including climate change programs. StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez condemned Thunberg, accusing her of prioritizing hatred for Israel over environmental activism despite Israel’s efforts on climate action.
“Sadly, Greta’s hatred of the world’s only Jewish nation eclipses her love of the environment. …”
Well would you look at that: they make no distinction between demanding the university cut ties with Israel, “hatred for Israel”, “hatred of the world’s only Jewish nation” and “vile Jew-hatred”. So for them there’s no gap between asking for pressure to stop Israel’s active genocide and hating all Jews. It’s so absurd and such a blatant attempt at political gaslighting they don’t deserve to be taken seriously.
Because they have undue power over our lives.
My comment was just advising people to be media-literate and consider the source, though I also said that this in itself doesn’t make the article questionable (I actually think it’s quite credible). And I linked to Wikipedia’s article about this news website. I wasn’t trying to defend Israel or be controversial, and it was a bit of a surprise to see this get deleted.

Tumbleweed surprised me with how it receives constant, up-to-the-minute updates yet somehow doesn’t ever seem to break.
It also surprised me with how much I like KDE. I had used it way back in the day when it was a bit complicated looking and ugly. These days Plasma makes the whole experience nice.
I have set up OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on a couple of my machines with Windows 11 in a KVM virtual machine. Windows runs at a perfectly good speed in this setup, and I use it when I want quick access to proprietary software that only runs in Windows. It’s simpler and more reliable than messing around with Wine. It can be a little more complicated if you want to share folders between guest and host, but there are several ways you can achieve that.
Yes, in addition to MS Office, MacOS is particularly used by a lot of people who work in art or music, and none of the programs they use professionally for that will run on Linux. You can’t just go it alone with free software when all your colleagues expect you to use proprietary tools. And what people like about MacOS is that it is reliable for running these programs with a minimum of fuss, has a solid low-latency sound system (for musicians), and has easy access to Apple features like cloud backup. Imitating its desktop brings none of that.
This isn’t the worst-phrased headline I’ve seen, but it still feels like it’s tiptoeing around “IDF kills American-Turkish activist in West Bank.”
So we know these things work on one person’s computer (theirs) but not on another’s (yours). Such anecdotal experiences are not a reasonable basis on which to judge any OS, positively or negatively.
To be fair, most of them aren’t as nasty as C++. But Rust certainly gives you a sense of security you don’t get with most other languages.
I’m no Rust expert, but in my experience the borrow checker is a pain for a bit, then you start to get a sense of what works and what doesn’t, and after a while it has taught you to write cleaner code.
As one of the other quotes suggested: fork the kernel project and rewrite it entirely in Rust
That’s not practically possible given the scale of the kernel. And doing a total rewrite is almost always a recipe for getting stuck and, if you ever create anything, creating something worse.
Replacing C with Rust in the upstream kernel is akin to replacing the engine in a car while it’s running or being used every day.
Almost all real-world software development is like this. That’s what we do.
“I want to hold them captive all day long,” Ellison said during a financial presentation on Thursday. “I don’t want them leaving the building … I don’t want them walking down the road for a cup of coffee. We kind of figured out a few years ago how much that cost.”
Ellison, who was paid A$6m (£3.1m) last year, criticised other businesses that allowed their staff to work from home. His ASX-listed company, which is worth about A$8bn and employs about 5,600 people, formally banned the practice last year, despite the widespread trend of more remote working since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
“I have a no-work-from-home policy,” Ellison said. “I wish everyone else would get on board with that – the sooner the better. The industry can’t afford it.”
He also suggested that the trend towards more lenient working hours was misguided. “We’ve now got the industry all heading out there going ‘why don’t we do a four-day week, we got used to it over Covid’,” Ellison added. “We can’t have people working three days, and picking up five days a week pay, or [even] four days.”
Ok, this guy just jumped to the front of the queue for the sharp end of many pitchforks.
Funny how conducting a genocide is the action of a valuable ally who deserves support, but giving a speech criticizing genocide is terrorism.
I wonder how plausible a complete Rust fork of the kernel would be.
It sounds highly impractical, and it would probably introduce more issues than Rust solves, even if there were enough people with enough free time to do it. Any change must be evolutionary if it’s going to be achievable.
Not as annoying as all these people being sent over from number 302.
Welp, I guess my family will just carry on not being able to afford an electric car then. When it comes to the environment Canada is all talk.
Israel has shown again and again that it doesn’t care how many civilians it kills. Like any fascist state, it wears its lack of compassion with pride.
