If there was any question about Israel’s genocidal intent, surely there can’t be now.

I certainly wouldn’t rule it out. I doubt we’ll ever know for sure.

You’re right - my color vision let me down there. That’s good news.

One of them is dead, isn’t he? Evidently the other one has doubled down on the evil to compensate.

Edit: Maybe you meant the Supreme Court fuckfaces. They’re all very much alive.

I’d favour GPL3 too, but we do need wide adoption because that’s the only way an independent browser will influence websites not to just design for Chromium. That needs to happen for the new browser to have any impact on Google’s ability to dictate standards unilaterally.

Seymour Hersh may not always get things right. He seems to have been mistaken about the Syrian gas attack, for example:

https://www.bellingcat.com/news/mena/2017/06/25/will-get-fooled-seymour-hersh-welt-khan-sheikhoun-chemical-attack/

And his Nord Stream story is hard to corroborate given its dependence on an anonymous source:

https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/02/10/hersh-nord-stream-sabotage/

This isn’t to say he’s wrong, but since there is just one anonymous source we don’t really know he’s right either.

That chart forecasts a consistent large use of coal and a rapid increase in power from oil after 2030. China’s progress in renewable energy sources is good news, but these forecasts for coal and oil don’t seem to be.

Am I likely to be annoyed about where the fiber comes into the house?

That one depends on the company installing it. When I got it installed they asked me exactly where I wanted the fiber to terminate and ran it through the house to an outlet under my desk. So let them know and they might put it where you need it.

As for the router, I recommend buying a mini PC with at least 2 Ethernet ports and 4GB of RAM and running OPNsense. It’s great and will give you all the control you need. Or you can repurpose any old PC you have lying around and just add some Ethernet ports on a PCIE card.

How many high school kids will go out of their way to seek out and read extra text books though?
