There was Palestine. That's a distinction without a difference.

And just look at the beautiful Genocide they've created there!

I'm not siding with anyone here. I dislike all religious ethnostates because they always go wrong at some point. The only thing I like is when they become more secular, like Iran was before the USA tampered with it. I am siding against genocide. If Israel can stop doing a genocide, I can stop disliking Israel for doing genocide and just focus on their religious oppression.

Vs. the Koreans what Honda offers isn't so much more as less, specifically fewer vehicle fires due to failures of the fuel supply line or injector bodies.

It will be interesting to see if Korea has reversed this with their EVs, but first Japan has to actually sell EVs, and second time has to pass.

Honda is showing the beginning of the end by selling cars not designed by them, so maybe you won't have to wait too long for their come-uppance. Their only full sized EV is a GM product and they didn't even bother making any interior changes so it doesn't even look or feel like a Honda inside. It sounds like this can only be an improvement at this point.

It's so weird given that Honda was the undisputed champ of making a good simple reliable car in the 1990s. How did they get here? Did they hire execs from Sony?

Oh yeah, Gemini is great!

I finally just had to block the AI search results on Google because they are so much worse than worthless every single time. The "citations" linked never say what Google claims they say. Every time I search for information on something I know about already I can see that Gemini doesn't know shit.

Russia loves cutting cables, we should give them more of what they love... at home.

I'm sure they'd find a way to export their porn via other means, so nothing of value would be lost.

Actually, I'd miss ÐYоÐÐÐон-98 but I could live with it.

Yes, I know that isn't readable. I just don't care any more. Besides, there's no way to make it readable here.

The latter exists anywhere there is the former, but there are good and obvious reasons why aircraft should have to be highly regulated.

A part made with fiberglass which was somehow made with a resin that was as heat affected as ABS would have the exact same problem as the part that failed. The problem isn't the nature of the CF, the problem is that it can't do its job if the plastic melts.

Unfortunately there's no chance of appealing to Mr. Netanyahu to tear down that wall. There's also little to no chance of him being dragged off to the Hague while Israel can stand in America's shadow and thumb its nose at the UN.

Oh look, RWNJ doesn't understand asymmetric warfare. We'll add that to the long, long list of things it willfully doesn't understand so it can avoid learning anything.

History did not start October 7th. You are ignoring at least decades of history, if not millennia.

You mean of the nation murdering Palestinians and stealing their land since the 1940s? Yeah, self-defense is so horrible. Why don't you look at the comparative death toll sometime if you don't want to be a Zionist tool. Make sure you look at what it was on October 6th, you genocide-supporting clown.

The cooperation was not general knowledge because there was a veil of secrecy not penetrated until this millennium.

The trains running to Auschwitz were tracked by a special guarded IBM customer site facility at 22 Pawia in Krakow. The millions of punch cards the Nazis in Poland required were obtained exclusively from IBM, including one company print shop at 6 Rymarska Street across the street from the Warsaw Ghetto. The entire Polish subsidiary was overseen by an IBM administrative facility at 24 Kreuz in Warsaw.

The exact address and equipment arrays of the key IBM offices and customer sites in Nazi-occupied Poland have been discovered. But no one has ever been able to locate an IBM facility at, or even near, Auschwitz. Until now. Auschwitz chief archivist Piotr Setkiewicz finally pinpointed the first such IBM customer site.

The newly unearthed IBM customer site was a huge Hollerith Büro. It was situated in the I.G. Farben factory complex, housed in Barracks 18, next to German Civil Worker Camp 7, about two kilometers from Auschwitz III, also known as Monowitz Concentration Camp.

IBM's cooperation greatly enhanced the Nazis' ability to exterminate Jews and failing to hold them responsible for their exceptionally willing cooperation is a strong indictment against western society's worship of capitalism.

I got ticketed for this same thing in Austin. Passing a school bus, no lights. As I was passing, they put on the yellow flashing lights. The red lights were not flashing and the stop sign was not extended, which I could tell because the stop sign is at the front of the bus. Then I was written a ticket for passing a bus with red lights flashing. This was before dashcams, but I also got the fuck out of that shithole state before I had to go to court about it, and I'm never going back. (I also did a warrant search in Travis county and there isn't one, even for FTA.)

I don't trust Waymo, but I trust cops even less, and I trust cops in Texas even less than that.

You mean the orange shitgibbon right?

This is entirely the thing. Loki games can or at least could be coaxed to work on Linux with Loki_Compat libraries, but last time I tried to run Alpha Centauri for Linux even that wouldn't work — and I'm even still using X. But add to that, the Linux versions of games are frequently inferior. The Loki games are included in that, for example in AlphaC for Linux you cannot ctrl-shift-a automate formers only near their supporting base. Fast forward to a more modern game like Civ VI, and there's a huge slew of features and even leaders you can't get access to with the Linux version. Meanwhile, the Windows version runs better on Linux than it does on Windows.

I haven't heard the OS/2 thing, what's that about? I figure it failed because Microsoft was already doing "good enough" with Windows, plus NT had relatively meaningful security and OS/2 didn't.

I like having serious conversations on Slashdot at least as much as the next nerd, but arguments on Slashdot can only be taken slightly seriously today. There's a lot of people here who are not arguing in good faith.
