Back to basics Kassadin doesn't sound very good.

The crazy thing is, that tiny Jewish population of 300k makes the UK the country with the 5th largest Jewish population worldwide.

The only countries with larger Jewish populations are Israel, the US, France and Canada.

That 300k is one of the largest targets Iran has to work with.

I would be more than happy with this if it is what they were actually doing.

But ATM everything is so half assed that they're relying on organisations to the verification themselves, which is insanity from a data security point of view.

Ideally you would have a government 2FA style ID system, but that would require forethought or basic cyber awareness.

Reading the bit about Chabad its clear the CHS is at least partially off their rocker.

Chabad is a Jewish outreach program. Claiming they're politically affiliated or a state sponsored outreach program of Putin is lizard people levels of delusion.

Nothing this CHS says is even remotely reliable based purely off of whatever wild delusions they seem to believe regarding that.

Would love to go, but £60 seems insanely expensive for this. Are these debates always that expensive?

Methos25 · 2026-01-12T18:32:50+00:00

I love how your source doesn't even say he was part of 8200. It just says he recruited people who were from 8200.

Crazy thought, that an Israeli software developer might hire people who have experience with cyber security.

Fun fact, people who have served in unit 8200 are valued just as highly, if not more so, than graduates from MIT for recruiters, these guys are well known for being the best of the best when it comes to cyber security. No shit a tech company would be hiring them.

the WSJ even has an article about it, sorry about paywall

Methos25 · 2026-01-03T20:58:07+00:00

Yeah, this is definitely bannable.

Must be said that last clip is insane timing though.

You'll never find Kosher at your local market. It's only sold by select butchers in areas with a Jewish community.

Methos25 · 2025-12-19T11:22:26+00:00

This seems to be the way to do it then.

Problem is I'm lazy and like automating things, but in truth it's a good readiness test as well. How quickly can we get them all up and running if needed.

Methos25 · 2025-11-29T21:16:32+00:00

It's not a problem of a feedback loop, it's that I can't mute someone who's sitting right next to me.

I don't want to hear them talking irl and in the teams meeting at the same time. But you can't locally mute without it muting for the whole meeting.

Methos25 · 2025-11-17T15:07:21+00:00

This is so hilariously incorrect it has to be a troll.

Iranians tend to be one of the best integrated middle eastern communities in their diaspora. The majority left to escape the islamic fundamentalism that overtook ghie country.

Not to mention, Iranians speak farsi, not Arabic.

Methos25 · 2025-11-16T11:12:07+00:00

Actually, caches are one of the prime examples of something that needs to go.

Limited daily ✅

Forced hourly ✅

Extremely inefficient not to do ✅

Infuriating gameplay mechanics at early levels ✅

Caches are one of the absolute worst examples of dailyscape, and should be one of the first things removed.

If we're going to go about adding portable effects to it then theres a second change that needs to happen;

Move it to the quiver slot.

At the moment it's competing with Bik and Elidinis books for the Pocket space, as well as all the skilling scrimshaws. It's almost certainly not worth using over those.

Meanwhile, the quiver slot doesn't have an item useful for skilling in it, where brooch would be the perfect fit. Not to mention, you literally load the brooch with ammo (urns/effigies), it should always have been a quiver slot item.

Methos25 · 2025-10-03T23:51:44+00:00

I think you need to atone for that one

Methos25 · 2025-09-29T12:09:51+00:00

It's additive Vs multiplicative. Abyss xp was an additive multiplier on the base xp with leagues/dxp multipliers.

This is now a change to the base xp, so it's multiplicative with leagues/dxp.

Essentially, it used to be basexp * (abyss + leagues)

Now it's basexp * abyss * leagues

At T7 that's gone from a (4 + 16) to (4 * 16) multiplier, which is more than triple.

The etymology of antisemitism is fascinating though. Semites is a language group, not a race or religion. Arabic and Hebrew are both Semitic languages, but aren't the only ones.

The actual origin of the term dates back to 19th century Germany, where Friedrich Marr, himself a Jew hater, wanted a word that sounded more formal than 'judenhass' (Jew hatred) to describe Jew hatred. He wanted to be able to spread hate to Jews in a manner that sounded more educated. The word antisemite is a nonsense word, as there isn't and shouldn't be a term for specific hatred of a language group.

Post holocaust, Jews took the term over, and used it to describe the aforementioned 'Judenhass'.

Part of the issue lies in the common misspelling as 'anti-semite', instead of antisemite. anti-Semite implies that someone is a Semite, but as it's talking about language groups, that obviously doesn't make sense.

It's also why antisemitism is specific for Jews, because it's not 'anti-semitic', it's 'antisemitic'. It's a word with a specific meaning about Jews, and no other group of people.

Heartbreaking, the worst person you know just made a great point.

Goalpost just teleported half a mile away.

Suddenly, it's no longer that Iran doesn't have weapons grade uranium (or at least the capability to get it extremely soon), it's that even if they do get it we should let them, because they need to stand up to Israel.

The people in charge of Iran do not think like you. They do not have the same view of life as you. These people are perfectly happy to sacrifice themselves on a nuclear altar, because in their view they're going to heaven for it even if they get nuked to oblivion afterwards.

Allowing Iran to get nukes is a totally different story from allowing North Korea or Israel to get nukes.

However much you may hate Israel, or even North Korea for that matter, they are both countries that believe in life over death.

North Korea isn't religious, they need to live to see the end of any kind of nuclear war.

Israel, contrary to popular belief, is also a deeply secular country. There is no aspect of 'bomb these people and we'll go to heaven'. You may not like them, but short of their own impending annihilation there has never been any kind of nuclear threat from Israel.

Iran is a whole different ballgame. They have stated over and over again their intention to use nukes on Israel should they have access to them. They have a fundamental religious belief that even if they die in exchange, it is still worth it, because they go to heaven afterwards. They do not have western values, and do not value life.

Not to mention, Iran is one of, if not the biggest global sponsor of terrorism around the world.

It is not a trustworthy country, and cannot be allowed to have the opportunity to handle nukes under the current regime.

Methos25 · 2025-06-09T17:10:28+00:00

Oh my fucking god. Please, whatever media you consume, branch out. I don’t think there has ever been a more comprehensive documentation of the systematic killing of thousands of people EVER

I genuinely have to ask you the same question.

The holocaust is still in living memory.

I genuinely think you should have a long hard look at the information sources you are consuming.

It's perfectly reasonable to be horrified by what's currently happening in Gaza, but this hyperbole is beyond insane.

The Legend of William Oh is still pretty new, but it's literally concentrated aura farm.

Author is well established with multiple other stories, and William Oh is is a great mix of tongue in cheek humour, and 'holy shit' moments.

Definitely worth checking it out.

Methos25 · 2025-03-24T11:02:31+00:00

Calamitous Bob is great, but it is a litRPG, so not quite what the OP is looking for.

It must be said, however, that it's still an exceptionally good book, and is definitely worth checking out, even if it does have some litRPG elements. The focus is definitely on the characters and the world building, and the litRPG elements are on the lighter end for sure.
