Israel Exploits Assad’s Fall to Expand Into Syria
Israel Exploits Assad’s Fall to Expand Into Syria
Israel violated the terms of a 1974 agreement by rolling its tanks across the Syrian border — less than 40 miles from Damascus.Jonah Valdez (The Intercept)
Why do you always say: dictator, murderer, enslaver, etc. What can you theorists know about this?
Do you even know how people lived under Saddam Hussein, the most developed medicine, complete tolerance of religion, there were no Islamic states, Houthis, etc., one of the highest standards of living and its quality in the region, the same thing happened in Libya during the time of Gaddafi, Muammar's state flourished and what is happening now in both states? Islamist's, states torn to shreds, complete lawlessness... Should I continue...
China?! How is this not a dictatorship? And that your computers are made in China, iPhones, cars... nothing?!
Were you in Syria in 1995? Of course not and you don't know or wouldn't want to know how they lived, and they lived very well, better than now, for example, the Baltic countries, etc.
Dictator, dictator... You have to think sometimes!
If anyone wants to know how to spot when someone has a clear and extreme bias, one can spot it very clearly in the comment above.
When someone lists a group's (religion, race, ethnicity) existence as a negative along with things like "lawlessness, state torn to shreds", you now have a firm understanding of who they're willing to dehumanize to make their points.
Еverything was fine with them, they lived as they could and as they wanted... What now? You are the judge who gave you the right to judge.
Hezbollah is an ambusher fighter, not an offensive fighter, though
Besides, don't wanna get in another Syrian quagmire
I mean they should've started their attacks on Tel Aviv and northern settlements again to draw the IDF into a fight on their southern flank. though with said flank under defended by Israelis ATM they could probably kick them out of the remaining occupied towns in S. Lebanon.
They wouldn't need to engage in Syria beyond maybe cross border attacks on IDF troops and convoys if they were taking this threat seriously. Either way it's clear Israel intends to bypass the southern fortresses and break the ceasefire deal very soon

Haha kinda scary !! XD
Yeah I tried readeck and while it does better than the others it still doesn't use single file (or I missed some configuration?)
I do like it because it even transcribes YouTube videos and that's very neat ! However, I work lot on superuser, stack,ask pages which aren't properly scraped and render with their comments.
The only perfect working solution I found was singlefile + Zotero.
OMG, are you me? I’m also a heavy stack* and ask* user, that’s so funny!
I’m not sure if it really uses single file, I’m a relatively new user and while linking around the system, saw that it saves its stuff in a single … what was it… gz or zip or tug. But not sure if it just scrapes everything and puts it into an archive file.
If you use the browser extension, it saves the page as rendered (at least it should). If not, open a bug report, the maintainer seems quite helpful.
You can also somehow script extractors I believe, so it should be possible to correct saving ask* and stack* pages.
CNN announces Kobe Bryant docuseries premiering January 25

Are there any actual guides to remuxing?
"Remuxing just means changing format without transcoding."
"...there are like a billion guides on how to transcode"
Getting mixed signals here...
That's horseshit. Google has gone downhill, for one thing.
For another, the vomit of inaccurate and/or outright wrong "ai" generated drek has taken over every search provider.
For another, there's a lot of benefit in asking other people that have followed a guide about their experiences in using them
And, for the last, it's just a dick move. Don't want to give a real answer, scroll on, scroll on.
I would have provided a guide if I had followed one, but I learned how to use Handbrake using trial and error.
Google is easy enough to use that, generally speaking, if you know what software you want to use, you can probably find a guide on how to use it.
And, again, since you had nothing to contribute, maybe scrolling past would have been better than being a dick about it.
Just saying, it's an option. The post didn't do anything to inconvenience you any more than any other random post. OP didn't name you in specific to give a response, no matter what it might be.
That's what it comes down to.
It's Wheaton's law. Don't be a dick.
So, apply it. Be better. We can all use improvement in how we treat people, right? I mean, you're making some kind of reaction to being told your words were dickish. Anyone would. So, don't double down. Don't make excuses. Just use it in the future.

The alternative is... this.
Oligarch's AI deciding if your children are worth healing or if they've already been exploited too much to make it worth it to them.
The violence is happening now. I reject the notion that we should continue to just take it because the slaughter is quiet and according to plan.
This is quiet, not peace. Have you been to our tent cities? Do those victims of our economy look like they're at peace?

But that doesn’t change the fact that adventurism isn’t going to get the goods. It’s a symptom of how bad things have gotten, but it’s not a solution. You can’t overthrow the largest global imperial hegemon in history that way. We haven’t even managed to pause a genocide in our name, never mind house, feed, and care for everyone.
Did you see who just won the popular vote? Many of these folks are as likely to cheer on the assassination of a socialist or trans person or an immigrant as a CEO. There isn’t a mass of class conscious proletarians organized for revolution right now. There is virtually no organized labor right now.

You can't organize a mass labor movement or major party under the current power structure for one important reason, one of the reasons Unions have been all but defeated from their height, the owners simply have a bigger pulpit, the biggest pulpit, the for profit media pulpit. They also have the pulpits of almost all elected officials. They don't need to use this pulpit to win any argument, merely divide this new renewed labor movement over petty divisions as they've done repeatedly over the last 60 years.
They own the means of production, they own the means of state violence, and they own the bully pulpit. All that is left is direct action or acceptance of the futility of the situation until climate change induced collapse.
Because before that climate change induced collapse, they'll also soon have virtually unlimited bipedal robots they can use to fight their battles for them, which will also eliminate direct action, which will effectively make the only possible agency anyone can e

This is last call for even a slim hope. If it requires generational struggle, it's already over. This isn't ebbs and flows of history, our technology and greed enabling are very well set to put a period on that in our lifetimes.
