Hamas was not the one that killed her. And they weren’t using her as a shield whatsoever. Israel killed her AND targeted the ambulance they were fully aware was coming to save her, since they agreed to let it go and get her, but then killed the paramedics when they got there.

It’s a stalemate, largely. While Russia was massively on the backfoot earlier in the year, they mined massive swaths of eastern Ukraine before partially retreating.

Which makes it unlikely for Russia to actually have any future forward progress, but it also stymies Ukraine from doing the same except extremely slowly. There’s still been several victories for Ukraine over the past few months, but they haven’t changed the fighting area much.

It’s largely a war of attrition to wear down Russia now, who has been having more and more internal issues as time goes on.

The first thing I did when I made an account on Kbin was block the several meme instances that showed up on the front page feed. Shouldn’t everyone do that?

If you like authentic Korean food, I’d suggest Maangchi

Silver is related to real name. Seren is Runescape god name.

They don’t inherently do so. Unless you have some biological claim to that effect?

The only reason they encourage monocropping is because the seeds are just that much better than the alternatives, so farmers are less likely to want to grow other options. A similar effect happened when F1 hybrid seeds were introduced, leading to the Green Revolution.

In that regard, having a broader variety of GMO cultivars with many kinds of crops would help diversify farmer usage.

Crop types are subsidized, like corn in the midwest, but that doesn’t have any special connection to biotech seeds. Outside of you’re more likely to get research done on and biotech seeds made for the more popular crop types than others.

Don’t even get me started on the people who claim those with diabetes or asthma can get better with willpower and shouldn’t be taking medicine.

Good and useful crops encourage monocropping because why would farmers want to grow inferior options that will produce less overall and be less desired by consumers?

So monocropping is the natural result of consumer demand and the agricultural improvement of seeds.

That doesn’t make monocropping not a problem, but it doesn’t mean purposefully using worse seeds is the solution.

While companies are bad, that doesn’t automatically make things a company produces bad even if the company is trying to price-gouge or otherwise make the most profit out of it. You can oppose the latter while not pushing bullshit about the former.

In this regard, I’m referring to things that people generally try to push anti-science views on and use “company bad” as their purposefully bad argument to conflate the two things.

So, medicine and pharmaceuticals are not bad, even if the companies are bad.

Same goes with vaccines, obviously.

Biotech crops are not bad (and people really need to learn about how all crop cultivars have patents, including heirloom and organic cultivars).

You’re gonna make me start a fight with you.

Though, from a realistic scientific standpoint, the answer is and has always been both are responsible. The impact was a major destructive event that caused massive sun-blocking constant winter die-offs that the Deccan Traps contributed to over a much longer period.

If the reason for this is to prevent pedophilia content, then this will do nothing. People who access that sort of thing on the dark web aren’t going to be affected by this whatsoever.

I mean, I’m using Chrome right now, but if they actually implement this and my ad blocker stops working, I’m switching to Opera or something.

Do they really expect to not lose browser users with this move?
