The nuclear attack on Japan wasn't intended to defeat them - they were already essentially defeated, just trying to find a more favorable way to lose. The nuclear attack's purpose was to intimidate the USSR, as a power flex. The reason nuclear weapons are a deterrent isn't because a couple of nukes hitting your country is a problem - that's just a minor inconvenience when it comes to war. The reason nuclear weapons are a deterrent is because the countries that do have them have a lot of them, and can destroy not just a couple important cities, but cover your entire country in radioactive waste.
Not only will your "plan" not achieve its goal, but it will also hurt hundreds of thousands, possibly millions of civilians. I know it's popular to associate a people with a government, and that's not completely baseless, but - and I can't believe I have to say this - that's absolutely no reason to launch a nuclear attack. That's just genocidal nonsense. There's a reason countries at war don't kill civilians, and it's not "good will".
no, it isn't bidirectional, public = encrypt, private = decrypt, that's it. You can address a message to multiple recipients though (when using GPG), so often in case of email a message is addressed both to yourself and your recipient, so both you and your recipient have access to message text
this did affect Russia at least because I've seen many memes about egg prices (though I don't eat eggs myself so I have no personal experience to validate that)
In short, Nix reduces the setup time, both for your system and for your projects. If you find yourself spending a while setting stuff up (for example, after a reinstall; or maybe you want to run your project on another PC and need to install the right dependencies), Nix will help. Otherwise, if your desktop is vanilla Fedora or whatever and you don't do much programming (or you don't have any dependency management problems), Nix probably isn't for you.
I don't care much about rofi itself, I primarily like it for how powerful its scripting is compared to e.g. dmenu (css themes are nice to have too I guess)
sway with tabs (i usually dont use actual tiling)+4-5 workspaces
waybar for status display and on mobile also for menu access
rofi as the app launcher (i also plan to write a proper rofi menu for my phone for quick access to useful commands/config but it's heavily wip)
i patched sway for push to talk because wayland spec doesnt support keybindings in a way required for push to talk for now
i also plan to patch it on the phone to completely forbid fullscreen apps (as they hide the menu which i use for workspace/window switching) and show the window bar on all windows (for example, firefox extension/downloads popups)
Which does beg the question why the others haven't implemented such functionality (yet)?
Helix continues the work previously done by Kakoune (some people prefer Kakoune over Helix anyway). As to why - because it, like any other computer science topic, is a topic of active research, and Kakoune is the next generation of research into modal editing. Disclaimer: I use Neovim because it works well enough for me (it does offer more configurability, but I doubt I use it that much) and I don't want to learn another set of hotkeys (which is similar enough, but still different).
I shouldn't expect remote accessing some random server will allow me to use Helix, right?
That's right, but as a Neovim user, it's hard for me to use Vi, because it lacks many features, and I don't know which ones. When you start going from basic to advanced knowledge, it sadly doesn't translate. Of course, I would still pick Vi over Nano any day.
There's a similar problem with many shells (fish, readline (bash)) that don't fully implement Vim's features, so their Vi mode sucks, but I still use it.
yes, if that AUR was in a centralized git repository, and kept track of inter-package compatibility, and centrally cached prebuilt versions of the packages for every single update, and you could also easily modify any of the packages, and there was a way to autogenerate build scripts, and and and...
First, elimination of Israel is a good thing. Second, please show me the source.
Indeed, "terrorist attacks" have widely been performed by Palestinians and Palestinian liberation groups. Some were aimless, as they were just the spontaneous expression of the hatred of Palestinians towards Zionists. Some were quite purposeful (and it's not just Palestinians doing that, there were plenty of cases of e.g. terrorist attacks of Ukraine on many people in Russia, the most recent one I remember killed a former Ukraine deputy who defected to Russia, and the blowing up of the Crimea bridge may well be considered one) - with the purpose being anything from assassinations (like the assassination of the minister of tourism by PFLP, and I hope you won't claim Israel's government is innocent and shouldn't be targeted), to raising money, to political demands (the Japanese Red Army Faction hijacked some planes for ransom or to make the Japanese government release prisoners, or to make a point by flying one to DPRK), to perhaps the most objectionable purpose - intimidating Israelis to show that this isn't "their" land.
"Terrorist attacks" shouldn't be equated with each other - they should be looked at in the context of who's leading them, what's their purpose and means. If you reject "terrorist attacks", you're often rejecting the only means of partisan combat for heavily overwhelmed forces. Of course indiscriminate attacks on civilians are bad (though if civilians start shooting at you, you're forced to fight anyway), but, depending on the organization leading them, most terrorist attacks aren't that. There's of course also the wider problem that terrorist attacks can't be the only means towards an end, and don't make sense in a lot of cases. Whether Hamas or PFLP perform them is not up to me, I'll just trust that they know their options better than me. I'm not in a position to teach or moralize them.
Support for Hamas does imply support for Palestine.
However, what the original commenter said is that supporting Palestine doesn't imply supporting Hamas, which is true, but that in turn implies an eclectic worldview in which you support a people against a genocide, but not their only means for resisting said genocide, and ignore facts (for example, by reading the 1988 Hamas charter, which is heavily cited by Western media, instead of the 2017 Hamas charter, which is much harder to find because it's inconvenient for the West)
it's actually a reference to "video games cause violence"
