I can't think of a more reliable source than testosteronedecline.com

and I'm sure they're paying them lots of money to do it
because God forbid the rich assholes aren't rich enough 🙄

was gonna say, I'm not exactly a gun guy, but when playing Modern Warfare the FN SCAR with ACOG scope was always my favorite. Bad guys go down relatively quick and the scope works even after an EMP (IIRC).

You are going to be trapped in a room for 12 hours with a mid 2000s office desktop with no internet connection and an external hard drive; what are you putting on the hard drive?

I've got some DOOM WADs I have been meaning to play so I would probably grab Trench Foot, Total Chaos, and the sequel to Ashes 2063, Ashes: Afterglow with a portable install of GZDoom to play them....

probably some snes roms, an emulator, and some ebooks

FFS people, they're just Arab
nobody is trying to kill all the Arabs

chalk46 ,

you know, ethnically-speaking the Palestinians are just Arab
it's not the hardest thing in the world to research
nobody is trying to wipe out all the Arabs, and calling it genocide is probably just pissing Israel off
educate yourself a little and stop buying into the propaganda: https://time.com/4084301/hitler-grand-mufi-1941/

[Question] Why didn't infantry tanks work?

It seems to me that in the interwar period there were a lot of tanks designed with the idea that they would stay with groups of infantry, providing direct fire support while being a lot more durable than a field gun. My understanding is that this was generally abandoned in favour of faster tanks which operated somewhat...

Well, I'm no expert, but I know Germany had these MASSIVE tanks (Tigers) during WW2, and the UK/US response was the Sherman tank, these small and fast little suckers, who technically couldn't take them out, so they modified some of them in-field by replacing the turret and changing a few things inside to create the Sherman Firefly, which were these badass tank-killers. Suffice it to say, they made a lot of Shermans..

If it's not seen as much, that probably means the green material is heavier than iron. It's less common, but large enough stars can fuse even heavier elements. That's where all those elements on Earth came from in the first place.

I've been switching between the two a lot lately, primarily tweaking "sway" and "spectrwm"
Xorg generally uses less RAM and has way more options as far as window managers go, but I like how Xwayland uses the actual names from the /sys/class/drm/card*-* for the screen names (multiscreen randr stuff), although in Xorg my lid-switching script is considerably simpler since it uses xset for DPMS.
There's a reason X11 has been around for so long I guess. I mean I just discovered a window-manager agnostic way of setting my media keys using xbindkeys (which is nice because spectrwm's custom action bindings are bugged and need a reload after every fresh start), and even compton isn't so bad once you learn to use it properly (it was ignoring the documented user config path ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯).
I mean don't get me wrong, it's cool as hell that you can literally run "sway" from the command-line, and set the bg and screen positions in a single config line, or that setting transparency in the "foot" terminal is also a single simple setting, but the complexity of Xorg isn't always a bug..

how the hell does gobshite like this get 500+ upvotes

in systemd runlevels are basically just targets (it still sets rc?.d symlinks in /etc akaik) which have services they want and are wanted by, it's the basis for dependency handling
plus you get cool security features like syscall filtering, capability limits, user switching, etc

Chosen people, are you frickin kidding me? Do you know how much land the Arabs have (Palestinians are mostly Arab)? Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. The Jews ask for one little plot of land and suddenly everybody starts crying genocide. What the hell happened to all the native Berbers in northern Africa?!
All because some random guy claimed they were the illegitimate descendents of Abraham ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

4-60 years after all that? They need to lock their asses up and throw away the key. Fucking psychos

I've gotta admit, it takes a lot of nerve to fork an open source project a bunch of other people put all this time and effort into, change a few lines of JavaScript here and there in the UI, then act like you wrote the damn thing.

gotta love that ly uses the wtfpl license

Netanyahu snaps back against growing US criticism after being accused of losing his way on Gaza ( apnews.com )

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu railed Sunday against growing criticism from top ally the United States against his leadership amid the devastating war with Hamas, describing calls for a new election as “wholly inappropriate.”...

ffs people, learn English and do your own research

You can't always trust online PSU estimates (as far as how many watts you'll need), it never hurts to calculate it yourself
I've got a 9th gen Intel board (MSI) with a 10th CPU and a Radeon RX580 running on a 400 watt power supply (EVGA), my biggest concern is overtaxing the poor thing 😀

ahh, Jewish mythology
brainwashing idiots for thousands of years

it's kind of a no-brainer really
can they? yes. would they? yes. so will they? probably.

I thought colonizing was what you called it when you farmed the land ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
