Why are Israel’s prisoners terrorists and Hamas’ hostages elders and civilian women? Seems like an imbalance overall.

I mean in the actual article the title is: Israel says Hamas rejects key elements of US ceasefire plan for Gaza

So it seems that way. That, and historically they prefer more war and death over peace, as is evidenced by thousands of rockets year after year into civilian territory.

The headline in the actual article is: Israel says Hamas rejects key elements of US ceasefire plan for Gaza

Well they certainly weren’t building infrastructure for their own citizens with all the materials and money. shrug

Probably the fact that they started a war on Oct. 7th that they can’t win, as a starting point for escalation of conflict specifically.

Out of curiosity, why are no other countries accepting Palestinian refugees?

As someone who writes C++ every day for work, up to version C++20 now, I hate the incoming C++23 even more somehow. The idea of concepts, it just… gets worse and worse. Although structured binding in C++17 did actually help some with the syntax, to be fair.

Sweet, do you have any links on how to set that up? My next goal is to set up my own lemmy.<mydomain> instance up so I can pull various things for my own aggregation. Last I tried, I had errors after the Rust compiling steps, need to try it agian.

I was shocked as I went through the source struggling to find any modules that had C. Craziness.

https://odysee.com/ – this one is also worth checking out, Louis Rossmann even posts there.

It’s weird seeing comments that outline the actual problem getting downvoted here more than the superfluous comments that do not address the real problem at all. Bizarroworld.

Would you rather a hostile foreign entity do it instead, who have vested interest in sewing destructive chaos as a goal, though? That’s the alternative.

I’m still on the google prompt bandwagon of typing this query:

stuff i am searching for before:2023… or ideally, even before COVID19, if you want more valuable, less tainted results. It’s only going to get worse from here, 2024 is the year of saturation with garbage data on the web (yes I know it was already bad before, but now AI is pumping this shit out at an industrial scale.)

Not participating so much as reading the hivemind room temp IQ drivel that usually comes with the territory is just a complete waste of time because there’s nothing interesting or valuable in any way. I’m still on the hunt for better circles as is tradition. Eventually I’m going to write my own javascript extension for firefox to help mitigate some of the overly politically biased posts and comments in the main feeds, which will likely have to work over time as I start building regular expression rules and whatnot and start doing weighted statistics. Might actually be a good use case to start using Python to start classification systems as I aggregate the datasets. Might even be an interesting case for machine learning. I think I might actually do that now that I think about it…

Are there any lemmy servers that consist of more moderate and centrist or even moderate right-leaning people? I don’t like solely participating in the echo chambers, because if you don’t think like the liberal hivemind you get insulted repeatedly with no meaningful discussion, and the talking points are combative instead of philosophical or thought provoking. Surely there are less extremist communities on lemmy somewhere?

The problem is I want a home feed where left-wing political stances and memes aren’t crammed into every possible row, and lemmy users seem to spend significant amounts of brain power making anti-right wing memes and whatnot, so instead of having useful meaningful entertaining content it’s just political garbage and left-wing propaganda. Might have to just make my own instance and somehow filter out the useless political rhetoric noise I guess.

By Iran funding their Hezbollah proxies to continue the attacks (that just caused injury and serious injury to multiple people in Israel)? Seems like a continuation of the assault on civilian territory from an outside perspective.

Yes, that is why my opinions are that of my own.

That’s very… peaceful of you to say. Do you sympathize with terrorists who have civilian hostages?

Yes, I am aware, it was still an actual question.

It was a legitimate question.
