  • Reading this again, I see you're not a Zionist but just a person interested in nuance and the actual truth here. That's good, the source is doing the thing where you cut out a soundbite and make rage bait out of it.

    So what's the solution here? Both sides are human, and will harbour grudges and gravitate to ideologies that legitimise them. Peace has been imposed under similar situations before.

    What will happen is a totally different question. A successful and very ironic genocide seems most likely.

  • Lol, and this guy is blind on top of it all. I respect the commitment - people in my life are pissed I'm not on all the big walled gardens.

    I’m not eager to turn this into a malware museum

    It's an XP machine on the internet. I think it already is.

  • I mean, we're not at the point where they even have a say in it. They're busy struggling to survive because Israelis don't accept their right to exist and actually have American hardware to impose their will with.

  • If it was identifying Lemmy users, it definitely would be. But, it's a tool that reveals identities of a small, supposedly accountable group during real-life interactions, and we're just mentioning it, so it seems like there's at least an argument to allow it.

  • They have incredible value, actually. I'm not sure what cheaper system your thinking of, but none come anywhere close to it's general capabilities.

    If you factor in the development process it might not be such a great deal. But, you're not at this point.

  • There's no equivalent jet in general. And for good reason - the requirements were insane and the development process was both massively slow and unfathomably expensive.

    In the long run, you have to wonder if sensors will move to any number of alternatives to radar reflections, but word is that stealth is still pretty (war)game-breaking ATM.

    It's just that the US has privileged access to all the software...

  • My sense at this point is that grotesque flattery works on Trump, but only to a point. Trump doesn't really like anyone, the best you can do is a slightly-better-than-neutral relationship. (And at the other end he's willing to coexist with anyone who hasn't personally slighted him, like Kim Jong Un)

  • No. It's all culture warriors in the Alberta Republicans right now. I don't know if I've seen much about pipelines at all from them. They prefer dogwhistling - "stand up for our values". Meanwhile, the oil industry basically owns the UCP and Danielle Smith, to the point where agriculture has kind of been pushed out.

    That's also why they lost. The oil industry is popular in Alberta, as is the idea of having our cake and eating it too, when it comes to the federation. The cultural conservative stereotype of is way off, though, even for the most part in rural areas.
