But for a moment I was like wow, 100FPS in software rendering

Thank you, that exactly was my point.

Because the title is still vague, and yes GPU and "graphics card" are often used interchangeably by the internet (examples: https://www.hp.com/gb-en/shop/tech-takes/integrated-vs-dedicated-graphics-cards and https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/connectivity-and-performance/article/switching-to-your-pcs-dedicated-gpu/000081045 ).

"New CPU hits 132fps" could wrongly suggest software rendering, which is very different (see for example https://www.gamedeveloper.com/game-platforms/rad-launches-pixomatic----new-software-renderer ) and died more than a decade ago.

A bit misleading, what is meant is that no dedicated GPU is being used. The integrated GPU in the APU is still a GPU. But yes, AMD's recent APUs are amazing for folks who don't want to spend too much to get a reasonable gaming setup.

just nostalgia

Surely mostly nostalgia. But I do remember feeling a sense of accomplishment whenever I managed to run a game and get the sound working 😅

Yeah it's not Linux. It's forked off MenuetOS (https://menuetos.net/ ) which is a hobby OS written entirely in assembly (FASM flavor, https://flatassembler.net/ ).

Not gonna lie, part of me wants to relive the SoundBlaster and DOS extenders era and watch stuff with QuickTime. Tinkering with config.sys and autoexec.bat was quite fun back then.

I dare him to send some money to Hamas accounts and see whether his position that Hamas "isn't a designated terrorist entity" still stands

Hamas is not a designated terrorist organization

It is:

Who says it wasn’t civilians?

Hamas and Islamic Jihad themselves, or are they too just Israeli hasbara?

"Hamas confirmed that Jalamneh was one of its members. The Jenin Brigade, which includes a number of Palestinian armed resistance groups, said in a statement that two of the three men were members of Islamic Jihad."

is downvoted to shit

You should take those counts with a grain of salt, and they shouldn't mean anything in principle since we have no Karma here. I caught someone making two accounts just yesterday to downvote everything on my profile. Lemmy has a clear vote manipulation problem and some are clearly weaponizing it to try to hide some stories from those who filter by "Hot", like for instance this story which literally got censored by the bot downvotes: https://lemmy.world/post/10789603

This is three terrorists.

One being a Hamas commander and the other two being members of Islamic Jihad, also a terrorist organization. At least one of them had a gun with him.

The IDF's claim is that the three were involved in a transfer of weapons and were planning another Oct 7th style terrorist attack.

Now if we dismiss IDF's claim as "propaganda", sure one can say "boo Israel bad, perfidy!!" but Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists hiding as civilian patients in a hospital is pure moral bankruptcy no matter whether the above accusations are true or false, because they know fully well that their presence is endangering every other patient there.

That said, I'd also have preferred if the IDF detained them for questioning instead, they could have extract so much valuable intel on the hostages and the tunnels instead.

Also important to add: only the bedding got damaged and not a single civilian was harmed in the whole operation.

It's not when they themselves require "the fulfilment of two cumulative criteria: a person must require medical care and must refrain from any act of hostility".

Again, since you're fully confident in this, go ask the journal to retract the article I linked to. Show them how they should read the Geneva Convention, that it "shouldn't be a debate" and that it shouldn't even require an article.

One with Hamas, the two others with Islamic Jihad. So yes, that makes three terrorists.

Patients in hospitals, either ill or injured, are a protected class under the Geneva Conventions.

Again, not a clear-cut issue. You cannot extrapolate a few lines from the Geneva Convention with your own definitions of what constitutes a "patient". So again, since this misinformation is being repeated, I find it only fair to quote a few passages on why that is, at least, debatable and why it is still indeed very important to add that the 3 killed were terrorists, were carrying guns and were planning a terrorist attack.

The Geneva Convention provides guidelines for the medical treatment of enemy wounded and sick, as well as prisoners of war. However, there are no comparable provisions for the treatment of terrorists, who can be termed unlawful combatants or unprivileged belligerents.

(there wouldn't be an article about it if it was an obvious question: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19998085/ , you should contact that journal and ask them to retract that article since you seem to say that they're wrong)

Qualifying as wounded or sick in the context of international humanitarian law requires the fulfilment of two cumulative criteria: a person must require medical care and must refrain from any act of hostility. In other words the legal status of being wounded or sick is based on a person’s medical condition and conduct.

(https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gci-1949/article-12/commentary/2016 )

Being an active terrorist member of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, carrying at least one gun, planning a terrorist attack, and very likely committing perfidy by hiding as civilian patients in a hospital, all of that is certainly NOT "refraining from any act of hostility". You're free to consider the more general moral debate on whether it's okay to assassinate terrorists hiding in a hospital, but it's wrong and misleading to make the Geneva Convention say what it clearly doesn't say at all.

What would have clearly defended the terrorists' right to care would have been if they surrendered and left Hamas. But in the absence of that, it's, at best, still debatable whether the First Geneva Convention defends those terrorists' right to hide as civilians in a hospital to "receive care" or not.

With all this said, yes, it is very much indeed misinformation to maliciously leave out the fact that the 3 killed were Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists.

When you’re in a hospital bed you are de facto refraining from any act of hostility. They aren’t active combatants in a hospital room no matter how much the IDF would like you to believe that.

Conveniently ignoring this doesn't make your point true: being part of a terrorist organization that just committed a massacre on Oct 7 and is still holding hostages, planning a terrorist attack and carrying a gun are certainly NOT “refraining from any act of hostility”.

Your point would have been defensible if those three terrorists 1- surrendered and left Hamas, 2- weren't carrying arms (at least one of them was carrying a gun), 3- weren't accused of planning another terrorist attack and 4- didn't commit perfidy by hiding as civilian patients in the hospital. Still being active members of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, with one of the three being a commander, IS an act of hostility.

Joke's on them, I only use Arch (btw)

Our two quotes aren't in contradiction? Here's what the first Geneva convention defines as "wounded or sick":

Qualifying as wounded or sick in the context of international humanitarian law requires the fulfilment of two cumulative criteria: a person must require medical care and must refrain from any act of hostility. In other words the legal status of being wounded or sick is based on a person’s medical condition and conduct.

(https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gci-1949/article-12/commentary/2016 )

Being part of a terrorist organization that just committed a massacre on Oct 7 and is still holding hostages, planning a terrorist attack and carrying a gun are certainly NOT "refraining from any act of hostility".

medical units, i.e. hospitals and mobile medical facilities, may in no circumstances be attacked.[5]

Irrelevant as no medical facility got attacked (okay, they'll probably have to replace the bedding) and most importantly not a single civilian got harmed in the process.

probably ex-Redditors believing Karma is a thing here, they could also be some of the bots that someone created to downvote everything on my profile even not related at all to the Israel-Hamas war (and probably even the stuff they'd have agreed with if they read it)

Hospitals are OFF LIMITS

To terrorists too? Your oversimplification makes it seem like a clear-cut case when it's not.

With the escalation of terrorism worldwide in recent years, situations arise in which the perpetration of violence and the defense of human rights come into conflict, creating serious ethical problems. The Geneva Convention provides guidelines for the medical treatment of enemy wounded and sick, as well as prisoners of war. However, there are no comparable provisions for the treatment of terrorists, who can be termed unlawful combatants or unprivileged belligerents.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19998085/

So yes, sorry to insist on it again but it does matter and it is important to detail that the 3 assassinated were terrorists, and yes it should be considered misinformation to maliciously leave that out.

Reading comprehension, Hamas and Islamic Jihad are two groups.
