Why waste a bomb when you can use no-food for free? Oh, maybe it's a recreational bombing.

It's kettling at a national level. Virtually imprison innocent people for long enough, in conditions bad enough, and it's no surprise that they lash out. Likud was waiting for it and used it as the pretext for the extermination of the Palestinian people.

Our ancient tradition since the 1960s.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. [...] The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway. We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people." - Eisenhower

Stop it, he has an accountability allergy!

Tanks fired, then people died. How many were killed directly? Any? Did people die in a panic stampede? The headline is misleading by omission, even while speaking basic facts. I suspect people were killed directly by the IDF, but can I support that with this headline? No.

The headline is making the reader commit a 'post hoc ergo propter hoc' logical fallacy to get there. A weaselly headline like that gives cover to those who want to interpret events as the IDF not causing the deaths.

Killing Palestinian and other journalists.

Just don't flush them after

Like "recyclable" plastic.

Oh, the taxpayers will still pay for it. It will just never be built.

It's good to see the tide turn.

Not everyone was disgusted with Israel's actions before, and some of these people are just blowing in the political wind.

Ethnostate gonna ethnostate.

What's nice is that Microsoft today doesn't have capability to improve in the short or even medium term. They could drop a billion dollars into it and it would still take them years to improve their offering, if they can at all.

Yes they still can, it might just not be legal. This is America.

Yeah, Bezos basically kills his employees already. Maybe he just likes Mister Bone Saw's style.

Has anyone ever seen him properly laugh?

No, the current corporate approach of large scale AI typically uses a lot of water. It is not the only approach.

Let's also not forget that there are places where water is plentiful and these levels of consumption would be OK. The problem is they are competing with other water uses.
