Israel "intends to deliberately cause massive destruction to infrastructure and civilian centers" while taking large numbers of civilian casualties for granted. That violates the laws of war, the memo states.

I guess you're arguing the memo only accuses them of intending to destroy "civilian centres", not civilians. But ""taking large numbers of civilian casualties for granted" is part of the intent. Israel is the arsonist who knows there are children sleeping in the house.

My view is that the Dutch are, in diplomatic language, saying that.

It's more than not giving a shit. Killing civilians is a feature not a bug, it helps Israel's war aims in several ways and is entirely intended.

So is this pretty much an Analogue Pocket with a less good screen?

She professes to be a Buddhist. She may be the first practising Buddhist to hold high office in the UK. I guess it shouldn't be such a surprise given the number of cruel 'Christian' politicans

I couldn't say scientifically but it's generally not felt that humid. We do get what we call 'muggy' days where you can feel a storm brewing, but often the hottest days are drier.

I've experienced real heat and humidity in Northern Australia and we never get those levels in the uk.

Yep UK's certainly not sweltering, although we have gone over 100f on five occasions, all in the last 3 years (and all in the south east of England which is our warmest region)

Also the US is hotter and a light beer is best when you've been out in 100°F heat for a while.

Hmm, Greece, Italy and Spain would like a word with Minnesota, Wyoming and Maine. And let's not even mention Alaska

In my personal experience, although I still struggle with this, things do get better. Both getting better at social interaction, and caring less about being bad at it

True, and I'm guilty of this at times

TIL, thanks!

I actually think it can be harder to communicate moderation. I have a friend who's a recovering alcoholic and when he says "I don't drink" he rarely gets any pushback.

Whereas I do drink sometimes, and even get drunk very occassionally, but can go weeks without it. Some people have trouble with the idea that I drank one time they saw me but are choosing not to the next time. It's a bit like the way some straight or gay people can't wrap their heads around the concept of bisexuality... "which one are you? Straight or gay? Teetotal or drinker?" 😂

But also, why do Danish priests wear Elizabethan ruffs?

Replied to OP above with some suggestions

I use Ubuntu Studio. First thing to do is configure it with the included Studio Controls app, which is easy.

I used Reaper on Windows so it was easy for me to just use the Linux version. I've also messed around with Renoise which works well on Linux. People rave about Bitwig and it's more similar to Ableton I think, but like Ableton it's expensive. IMO you want want one of these rather than the built in FOSS DAWs, although to be fair I haven't tried those recently.

All these come with some built in FX to different degrees. Ubuntu Studio also includes a bunch. The free Airwindows plugins are also well worth getting.

I have a couple of U-He synths which are top notch and run native on Linux. They have some FX too which I haven't tried.

If you want to use VSTs you've bought it's doable with Yabridge apparently, I haven't tried it.

I know this is a gaming sub, but I'll just add that I had a similar experience with music production. Used to he a fiddly disappointimg nightmare, now it's smooth and usable as a daily driver

Yes! I tried a couple for Linux and they were shite 😂

To answer the 'just use the browser' comments - I don't like the tiny image box for posts. I'd like a much larger display for image/video-based posts so I can enjoy them at a glance. I'll only click into them if I especially want to read or post comments

I'm in the UK. When I was young it would be around 10 degrees now, 15 tops. The forecast for tomorrow is 24 degrees

Ah yes I remember this guy, they call him the Crystal Methodist

Also Renoise (also not FOSS,. but good)

Yeah I've been too lazy to install a custom ROM. I do use a different launcher (KISS) and am pretty happy with the phone overall. I do get the odd random crash, and the memory management is a bit aggressive
