    Israel War Cabinet member Benny Gantz files motion to dissolve parliament
  • Right before October 7th, Israel was in the midst of a huge political upheaval because of the looming judicial overhaul. Gantz was the leader of the opposition, and the main political rival of Netanyahu. The country was extremely divided, almost verging on civil war.

    Right after October 7th, Israelis were focused on unity, survival, and combatting Hamas, Hezbollah, and other threats.

    Gantz joined the war cabinet mostly to signal that whatever disagreements he and his party have with Netanyahu [of which there are many], he still prioritizes national unity in the face of existential threat.

    This unity was fragile, and by now the political infighting in Israel is back in full swing.

    Conservatives are freaking out because they learned that some animals are gay
  • The trailer for the series is full of comments criticizing Peacock (the publisher) for releasing this documentary and saying they'll delete their Peacock accounts.

    I've never heard of them before and I might open an account specifically to watch this! It looks genuinely good from the trailer

    Fact checked
  • My friend, I will give you the benefit of doubt and believe you when you say that this post's purpose was to make fun of how shitty Twitter's community notes are, and that is indeed an important topic to shed light on, so people won't treat community notes as reliable.

    However,

    You can rest assured that a significant portion of the people who saw this post believed it as straight fact.

    It is impossible to overstate how gullible people on the internet are, and how readily they will straight up believe conspiratorial BS, especially surrounding controversial topics like Israel.

    That's how Poe's law works, and it is attitudes like yours that don't take this shit seriously that end up inadvertently contributing to an environment full of libelous antisemitic conspiracies on the internet.

    I beseech you to carefully consider this stuff if you ever plan to post such a thing again.

    Ukraine backers blast ‘double standard’ after allies rush to Israel’s defense
  • It's worth supplementing this with his earlier statement from 2 days ago:

    “Ukraine condemns Iran’s attack on Israel using ‘Shahed’ drones and missiles. We in Ukraine know very well the horror of similar attacks by Russia, which uses the same ‘Shahed’ drones and Russian missiles, the same tactics of mass air strikes,”

    “It is critical that the United States Congress make the necessary decisions to strengthen America’s allies at this critical time,” he says.

    I'm on the market to buy a new laptop, and Lemmy has successfully coaxed and goaded me to give Linux a serious try.

    I've never used *nix as my personal OS.

    Which hardware/laptop do you recommend? And which OS to pair it with for a Linux newbie?

    I'm a software engineer, and quit my job to pursue an MSc in AI. So my uses will be:

    • programming
    • study
    • browsing lemmy
    • gaming

    Currently Sync only shows submission and comment score (score=upvotes-downvotes).

    This is the main reason I'm currently using Thunder instead of Sync.

    Please add seperate counts for upvotes and downvotes!

    I used to use thepiratebay.org, but recently it seems the quality of the site has degraded.

    I sometimes also use 1337xx.to , but that site seems to have a very small selection.

    Note that I couldn't find an answer to this question in the wiki + meathread, so if the answer is already there, please direct my attention to it 🙏🏴‍☠️

    I find it both hilarious and impressive that they bother including a satire news source in their aggregator. I also like that they clearly mark it as [SATIRE] everywhere possible.
