Arch Linux

Unless you’re on a good downstream like SteamOS, I’d suggest switching to something stable cutting edge (Fedora or Nobara if you want to put in zero effort).

Arch by itself will give you way the hell too many possible problems. You could waste hours on DKMS alone.

Mint will also work, but it has the downside of having slower updates to software packages.

‘They miscalculated’: Gaza’s floating aid pier failing to deliver in rough seas (www.theguardian.com)

The pier has been usable for just 12 days since it began operations on 17 May. On most of those days the assistance arriving by sea has had to be left on the beach as there have been no trucks to distribute it to warehouses in Gaza, because of lack of security....

Aside from blatantly stupid claims with zero evidence, why would Hamas have any reason to waste any sort of resources and energy on their own people?

You could at least vaguely make a statement about human shields, but no let’s go with “obviously it was Hamas because it’s always Hamas, even when Israel itself says it wasn’t Hamas”

I’m gonna be honest I’ve never had a flatpak version of something ever work properly.

There was even one popular media player that only came in flatpak form or otherwise build from source.

So obviously, for no reason at all, it barely functioned compared to other applications I had already tried.

Congrats to you people put there somehow running things like Steam with no problems lmao.

US aircraft carrier counters false Houthi claims with 'Taco Tuesdays' as deployment stretches on - AP (apnews.com)

Actually hitting a modern USN vessel with cruise missiles is like throwing a dart at a haystack and trying to hit the one needle.

Actually hitting a modern USN Carrier with cruise missiles is like throwing a dart at a haystack guarded by the ultra rapid fire death laser 3000.

Israel Bombs Gaza After UN Security Council Passes Binding Ceasefire Resolution (truthout.org)

Aside from the irony, it honestly wouldn’t be a bad idea to setup a demarc zone with US troops, similar to how Russia placed one in Azerbaijan and Armenia.

It would at least for the time being ensure the ceasefire actually holds, instead of expecting Israel not to break their “assurances” for the nth time.

I’m gonna be honest here, is there even any naval force besides the USN that could claim the ability to project power?

  • Russia’s carrier repeatedly caught fire
  • India left the door open on their brand new submarine
  • UK flopped a missile into the ocean
  • China pretends the SCS is the same size as the Pacific, and also allegedly had multiple nuclear sub accidents, which they cover up.

There was an article like two weeks ago which claimed Israel actually did accept the deal, believing Hamas would reject it so they could use it as reason to start the Rafah invasion.

Except Hamas immediately accepted, which led to some cheering in Gaza, which quickly ended after Israel invaded Rafah anyway.

I think the source was some anonymous officials invovled with brokering the negotiation, so it might be true.

Not really.

Its plausible that Bernie might have been successful on his own in recent elections had he made his own party considering how much support he got in the DNC’s primaries despite being a technical independent.

It’s not impossible for a new party to compete successfully, just very difficult.

If it took Imran Khan 20 years to create a populist party worthy of rivaling the military establishment in Pakistan who runs an actual fraudulent election every season, surely America can create a grassroots party worthy of dethroning the GOP and DNC.

Repeatedly voting those two parties and expecting ranked choice voting to become a thing is the real fallacy here. Neither party would pass legislation that weakens their stronghold on elections.

This all seems pretty tame compared to Pakistan getting couped for the nth time by the USA because they wanted to do trade with China and Russia because the USA kept screwing them over with infinite IMF loans and expensive LNG.

Now their democratically elected leader is in jail, the economy imploded, and they have a massive LNG shortage.

China is a bully, but they don’t infiltrate your entire government everyday like the CIA has been doing for several decades.

It seems weird that the CCP destroyed this Mosque and ran a massacre, apologized for it, paid for it to be rebuilt which was completed in 2009, and then promptly changed it again.

Incidentally, it had to do with who was running the CCP at each time period. Really helps to discredit Xi as some pompous moron compared to Deng who understood the value in giving people rights & liberties and not running the country like a craphole like how Mao did.

Egypt signed away control of their border as part of their peace agreement with Israel lmao.

Sisi has no jurisdiction, and even if he did Israel already controls the crossing, meaning he’d have to setup a new one and send military power to keep it up.

Of course he’s just a slimy [100 adjective long insult] who sucks [another 100 long adjective insult] so there’s a 0% chance that’ll ever happen.

I’m not even sure why Biden even bothered because everyone already knows this. Unless he thinks he can get Israel to comply somehow.

Kind of annoyed people here still haven’t made the connection that NATO doesn’t want to support an offensive war because that would cost money and the entire MIC would not be making tech for profit. Hence why most tech given to Ukraine has been 90s surplus.
