Hamas thought this operation would change everything.

They were right, but not in the way they expected. All they've done is turn soft sympathisers like myself away from their cause. They deserve everything they get and it's not going to be pretty. The Palestinian who will be killed during crossfire are on Hamas hands this time and the rest of the world will see it that way. absolute own goal, so they could... massacre a bunch of civilians. Hamas showing military genius of the likes of Russia

forgetting the camera for a second, imagine going on your honeymoon, renting an airbnb and being given a list of chores and washing to do before you leave

peter Jackson was dragged in kicking and screaming years after preproduction started. it was destined to be a studio driven mess from the start

when doing your job is denigrated as "quiet quitting" who wouldn't be stressed out? I've never felt better about putting work last on my priorities than I do now.

er, by default any profit is taxable for them while as a lemming you get a tax free $600 profit before it impacts you

but fuck ticketmaster anyway

if I was as rich as Elon, whether it's my own companies tech or not, I'm having a paid human driver on hand at all times anyway

I'll cop some shit for this one, but coffee baristas.

you put some grounds in a machine, twiddle some nobs and pour milk in a wave pattern

edit: judging by the amount of downvotes ive either pissed off all the Bachelor of Arts grads working as baristas or all the coffee snobs who still think making coffee is some sort of art that can only be done by the most highly trained baristas. Yes, I also love coffee. No, making it is not some sort of complicated thing which is the point of this post (and topic of this thread), and no, I am not disparaging anyone working as a barista (unless they are an Arts grad, sorry) because a job is a job and all jobs deserve respect

any country a citizen needs to run from in fear for their life is objectively an utter shithole

Ah Fear-Laden, Osama's shitty redneck cousin

when you go shopping, push off with your trolley and pull yourself up to go for a little ride down an empty isle. 40m and I still do it

cool, but the real cost of desalination is transporting the desalinated water upstream, which presumably would also need to be done here

if he wins, im pretty sure the 2 term limit wouldnt be something thats sacred either.

stealth camping. basically camping where your not supposed to / normally wouldn't want to, and have your presence remain unknown. it's great fun and breathed new life into "the outdoors" for me

gunning civilians down during a music festival is "defending themselves" now? God I'm sick of people outright defending literal monsters. IDF and Hamas are both evil organisations. the people being killed on both sides are not. I cannot understand how anyone can sit here and justify killing civilians on any side for any reason.

it holds, but we might refer to "fries" as hot chips if there's possibility of confusion

what is it with countries and bullshit maps lately

Always remember, if you plan on doing some stupid crime or barbaric thing, just make sure you say the other guy is responsible first. Prosecutors HATE this one trick!

I thought we were all supposed to drop dead in 2 years, the cookers were all banging on about that at one point when they weren't punching horses and thinking the government used laser weapons on them and not that they got sunburnt from spending the day in the sun "protesting"

But if someone uses their speech to advocate the forcible and violent suppression of other’s rights, that is unAmerican

the absolute irony of your moronic opinion is likely to have flown over your head

probably a reference to that Pringle's guy dying in a "plane crash"

in Australia 12% (used to be 10) of your salary is automatically invested for your retirement that you can't touch until then except in extreme circumstances (or you have a shit PM who let's anyone withdraw it during covid). even then, it will be hard to say it will be enough and you want some other side investments. if you don't own a house, like many my age, things would be grim.

and even in bad scenarios, we accept none of us will ever see a pension. currently boomers can get a rediculous amount on top of owning a large valuable house and they will screech black and blue about "entitlements" but for everyone else it's a "handout"

4k video files will fill your phone up mighty quick. especially if you use it for youtube videos or similar. or film your family/pets a lot

guerilla warfare against an occupying force with huge amounts of drones at their disposal will be very difficult in future

I got shouted at and called stupid all the time, but i feel being belted with sticks for minor things was probably what left more of a mark (mentally) to be honest

travel alone if you have the means. go to your schedule, stop where you want, do what you want to do.

if thats not possible, alone time in general, just go for a walk. or a ride. enjoy being in a place and moment, whatever that is

I think the reference to collars was more a hypothetical in the article as the author was challenging the bunker dudes how would they ensure the people keeping them safe remained loyal, and that none of them considered anything like "treat them like people before the cataclism", it didn't even occur to them at all, instead they proposed a bunch of more controlling measures, which included "disciplinary collars"

true story. my son has a bit of a phobia for public toilets and one day I was out with him and his sister in the city, riding ferry etc. I could see around lunchtime he needed to go, but he refused as he usually does. after lunch it was obvious he really needed to go and wouldn't make it back home in time (1.5 hour train ride plus time to get back to the station). there was a nicish public toilet at Manly Beach and I walked him in, he had agreed to try as he was clearly desperate.

but he decided no he couldn't go.

so we catch the ferry back to Sydney. again I asked to take him into the toilet as it was quite nice, but he refused. as we got to the train station, there was no excuse. he was bursting. had to go and had no choice. took him into the toilet. it was without a doubt, handsdown, the worst I had EVER been into. there was shit in the floors, smeared on walls, on the frikken toilet seats. piss everywhere. he had no choice. thankfully there was toilet paper.

I cleaned the seat as best as I could with toilet paper. he went.

we disinfected the shit out of both ourselves when we finally got home.

As for OPs question, some people are just plain animals

well i woke to every comment i made yesterday about dead civilians = bad to all being heavily downvoted. if its not brigading thats responsible, lemmy as a whole needs to seriously take a look at it self if they actually think its good that civilians were being murdered on the streets in israel

gotta love Russian cookers who think it's a stalemate if Ukraine don't kick russia out in 3 weeks who seem to forget russia was supposed to claim victory in 3 days..

yep while we havnt gotten quite as far as the extreme right in the US, the nutbags here in aus love to focus on similar oddly specific things, like trans people and sex education which is going through a bit of a renaissance of ignorant idiots trying to make it an issue.

its even funnier because we don't have a large religious base to even justify it and most of the lunatics pushing it would probably identify as atheist or agnostic

its well known china has an enormous online presence set around spreading misinformation, and of course the worlds best 'whataboutisms' you are ever likely to see
