Nah, I just don’t want to engage with someone who started the conversation in bad faith and then never stopped. You know what you’re doing, I know what you’re doing, so let’s just stop. I’ll even let you have the last word.

Same to you I guess. Oh well.

I’m not entitled to an opinion, remember? So, please, enlighten me.

Yeah, and the problem is that the history of the conflict didn’t even start with the current state of Israel being established. There really is no simple good/bad narrative to be had. It’s just a shitty situation for anyone who happens to live there.

You are really good at putting words in my mouth, that’s been clear from your first reply.

So what’s your great plan that isn’t childish idealism?

Maybe try looking at it from the point of view of the individual people living there (and having been born there for generations) instead of whatever strategic/historical layer you’re on. The state of Israel exists and won’t be going away, that’s a fact. You can hate the injustice if you want but it would still be better if they’d finally make peace and just live in the present instead of murdering each other over the past. But neither leadership is willing to do that.

Okay, now you can continue scolding me. Don’t forget to link this to Russia’s attack on Ukraine!

Let’s just fight forever then. Endless hate. Only war. Is anyone who started this shit even alive anymore?

The people who won’t accept a two state solution are the bad guys, so much is clear.

Turning the US election into another battlefield of the gender war is going to make the people stoking said war very happy. And they support Trump.

Do they still taste like sad, slightly burnt air?

I was really surprised when I learned that the inner eye wasn’t just some figure of speech, so I don’t see anything, certainly no extra visual details.

Something is still happening though, I can sort of “feel out” shapes/volumes and motion, like depth perception with no visuals attached.

True, really wish that could just be a them problem though.

I agree, there doesn’t seem to be a good way to make voting not at the very least semi-public anyway so just stop a) pretending the information is protected and b) remove the not-a-disagree-button-but-totally-a-disagree-button. There is a report link for rules violations, maybe a separate one for spam would be good as well, otherwise, I don’t know, just allow people to add an actual poll to comments if they want to?

It’s also worth noting that the bourgeoisie doesn’t just compete for power with the other two classes (proletariat and petit-bourgeoisie) - it also competes internally. And for that, different factions within the class will seek external support from different groups, and align their discourses to those.

And if someone were to ignore that and view them as a single-minded monolith it can easily be explained as divide & conquer tactics.

Don’t hold your breath, 10 already broke the pattern IMO and all I hear about 12 is that they will cram “AI” into everything. Windows the operating system is dead, replaced by Windows the sales platform.

To anyone saying “just use GPOs”, here’s a quote from the SetUserFTA page:

Microsoft offers a solution with GPO, but it is Computer-based and not User-based – and rather complicated. this means, you can not associate your Users on the same Server/Client with different file types. for example:

you have a PDF viewer and a PDF editing software on your XenApp server. Now you want that a certain group opens their PDF’s in the editor and the others only in the viewer (for licensing reasons for example). this is NOT possible anymore and Microsoft states “it is by design” and “this is a security measure”.

Said solution:

1. Set up a reference computer
2. Install applications
3. Go to Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs and configure default apps associations.
4. Export/import the custom default app association with dism.exe

[…]

As some recommended applications can manage more extensions with each new Windows 10 version available, it’s a good practice to refresh your XML. For example, in Windows 10 1703, Microsoft Edge registers the epub extension. If you’re using an XML file from Windows 10 1607, epub is missing. As a result, you will get an app reset notification for epub.

[…]

Configure a policy for your domain-joined computer: file association will be configured at each logon. User will be able to change file association, but at the next logon file association will be configured using XML file. This policy works only for domain-joined computer.

This is just about the most convoluted, annoying way they could come up with for doing this, doesn’t help people whose machines aren’t part of AD and isn’t scriptable. If they were mainly concerned about security they’d have an option for not allowing the user to change these preferences even temporarily on domain-joined machines.

Yeah, anyone who thinks that there’s exactly 16 types of person is using it like a horoscope, but that really isn’t the point.

but the “cognitive functions” as defined by Carl Jung, which a lot of people will find to be just as much non-sense but with the right attitude I think they’re a useful tool to learn about ourselves and others.

Exactly, and that’s what it helped me with. It’s not a personality test about how you act outwardly (or which Pokémon you are or whatever), it’s supposed to be about the inner workings.

But if you want an example of misuse: There’s an MBT community on Reddit that is full of that sort of bullshit.

Sounds like the test itself isn’t the problem but how it’s used and how much people attach to the results, like with IQ tests. Neither that nor Myers-Briggs should be part of interviewing for a job either but apparently some US companies do it anyway.

They have been here tomorrow for people who bough one with an 11th generation Intel CPU in 2021. I don’t think they are looking to get acquired either.
