Yes the girl at 3:08 wants to go first but he has to anyway.

What a sexist world. She should have just pushed him while laughing. It would have been better for everyone involved

Many people accuse Isreal in apartheid without realising at all what it means.

Do you for example know why Isreal built fenced borders in Gaza and West Bank?

In period between 2000-2005 over 700 Jewish civilians were killed in terrorist attacks coming from these territories.

Attacks basically stopped after the fences were built.

You do realize you didnt actually argue against it being apartheid? You repeated a victim narrative, a common method in fascist systems to normalize crimes against humanity.

Its really worth reading Einsteins notes on Israel.

"“When a real and final catastrophe should befall us in Palestine the first responsible for it would be the British and the second responsible for it the Terrorist organizations build [sic] up from our own ranks. I am not willing to see anybody associated with those misled and criminal people.”" https://www.currentaffairs.org/2021/07/albert-einstein-the-p...

Should echo in the ears of everyone that ignored Trudeau warning

Murderous totalitarian regimes do not work. They quickly turn into mafia states. At its not something you end up in accidentally, its very visible by people falling back onto tribalistic narratives they prefer over reality.

Looking back at Einsteins letter from 1948, its worth remembering, that Hannah Arendt co-wrote it while being a Zionist. Anyone actually interested in a future for Israel should think really hard if revisionist Zionism is a way to achieve that.

I wonder if the software would run on WINE. When they say “it won’t run on modern computers” I feel like what they mean is that you can’t buy a Windows 11 laptop from Best Buy and then run Windows 98 software as if it was a modern windows binary. But any modern computer can emulate a computer from the 1990’s one way or another. (Yes I know WINE is not an emulator but you get my meaning)

Certification is a major issue here.

Einstein didn't want a Jewish state, he wanted a binational Jewish - Arab state. Basically one state solution without the apartheid.

If you are going down a DRM search trip, both Widevine key dumping and DMCA compliant HDMI / HDCP downgrade hardware are quite interesting topics.

Explanation would be beneficial. Without you just make it more likely that someone does.

If you attach a load to an electrical line, then you are transferring power from the line for your use. This power is then no longer available for paying customers to use.

The load in question here is an inductive load, coupled through the air to the transmission line through well known physical principles.

If caught, you could be charged with theft for sure.

This is regardless of what people are doing or not doing in Belarus or Russia.

This isnt a one way argument. If this is stealing so is pollution reducing throughput sabotage. Prosecuting one but not the other is a value judgement which gets us to the nature of laws. They are not an end in itself and often times so stupid they get changed when unintended implications become clear.

edit: Someone posted https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/23799/has-anyon... a bit down with the following comment that highlights this quite well.

>At least here in germany, it is unclear whether "stealing" via induction is really stealing, the corresponding law explicitly states that a conductor is necessary. There have been lots of urban myths about it being forbidden, but the fact is that near lots of high power mid wave radio stations you automatically "steal" lots of power, e.g. just by having a neon tube installed in the "correct" direction.
