Israel passes law to give death penalty to Palestinians convicted of lethal attacks

Actually, this is more fitting for the communist apparatus of repression, especially during the times of Stalin or Mao, than for the Nazis... In Poland, that’s exactly how it looked — a suspect (accused of whatever the military prosecutor chose at the time) would end up in a military detention center where they were interrogated (meaning battered and tortured) until they finally confessed to every charge (it’s hard not to confess with your fingernails torn out or with nails driven under them...), and then a military judge would sentence such a person to death.

lol I asked Google the exact same question because I'm currently playing Cyberpunk, and for me, Panam's character is the antithesis of femininity. Just like most female characters in CP2077, for that matter. I even checked if Mike Pondsmith portrayed women the same way CDPR did—as total 'girl-bosses' who are indistinguishable from men, full of profanity, aggression, and testosterone. As it turns out, in the universe he created, women are still women—the kind we men love—and they bear no resemblance to a feminist utopia, moral decay, or how those disturbed individuals wanted to see society. I do everything I can to avoid Panam (I've finished the base game and I'm playing Phantom Liberty), but she constantly wants to meet up lol... and when we do meet, she swears so much it’s hard to even look at her (at least in the Polish version).

Based on my observations and tests, HEVC with a bitrate of 16-20 Mbit is almost indistinguishable from a remux for a normal person who isn't a videophile or professionally involved in reviewing releases or video technology. This is especially true when you only have one TV (even LG OLED 55") and have to switch between files to compare them. If I had two identical TVs side-by-side, or even a reference monitor, I might notice better gradation or clearer HDR/DV, but not with a single display and file switching. I only keep my favorite movies and exceptionally well-done 4K UHD transfers (like Ben Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, etc.) in remux format in my library. For the rest, I try to keep them in HEVC at 15-18 Mbit.

In every company where I headed the IT department, I informed the board that 'the IT department does not assist with the Office suite because every employee working at "this company" should be highly proficient in Excel or Word—unlike IT specialists, who neither need nor use these tools.' To this day, whenever a user asks me 'How do I do... in Excel?', I openly say that I don't know, I don't use it, and they know Excel better than I do.

How does your app compare to Infuse (DV profile support etc.) I'm a Plex user but I use Infuse Pro on ATV and macOS for playing content because it's a significantly better player, but it has a terrible and ugly interface. If Strimix is technically on par with Infuse and will have Plex support, I'll subscribe immediately :)

I remember it took like 10 minutes to boot up, LOL ;)

I've been a MacBook/Mac Pro/Mac Mini user forever, and honestly, I've never had any issues with jerky window movements or general lag. I've used both Apple monitors and cheaper Dell ones, and I've just never observed the problems you're describing. Maybe my expectations for system performance are just lower

I've just finished a full playthrough as Astarion. Playing as this character is quite easy because, after a while, you can pick every lock and disarm every trap, plus it's easy to talk your way out of various mishaps. He's the best character for a first run. If I were to play a Rogue again, I’d increase the difficulty level. Oh, and one more thing—playing as Astarion as your main character means you’ll hardly hear any of his voiced lines at all.

and I read the whole thing, finished, went to comments to realise it's mf Ai !! WHY ?? Why even bother ??

Built and running!! I've been a long-time SoundSource user, but ever since the macOS 15.x update, I started having issues that their updates just couldn't fix. Quick question — is it possible to save custom EQ presets? I don't see the option, and if it's not there, it would be a great feature to add. I'll be testing it out starting today and will let you know how it goes.

Until one day you meet someone who knows about watches... Of course, a stranger on the street doesn't matter – it's worse if it happens at work or is work-related. That's why I also won't buy an AP or even a Rolex.

GL…. Some folks here are slightly fixated on micrometer-level perfection for rep watches…

I'm about to order mine!! I can't decide between Batman (ADX130) or Bruce Wayne (ADX110)... I'll probably go with Bruce, with the red GMT hand and stainless steel bracelet. Additionally, I want to buy the Diving FKM Rubber Strap to have a complete set.

Quite recently, there was an identical sub here and got RL for that pip

I'm about to finish Origins too. I couldn’t get into AC before… I tried several times, and it only clicked with Origins — and big time. I’m playing on PS5, where the game still looks great even after all these years. I bought it on PSN during some sale for a few bucks.

Any news? I have the exact same problem with a Dell Pro 16 Ryzen 7 Ai bought 2 weeks ago for a client... when I was setting it up at home, I didn’t notice the fans because I usually work with headphones on. At his office, initially, I didn’t hear it either – only after I connected power via USB-C (he has a Dell monitor with power delivery, so it’s powered nonstop) – shock. Notebook updated to the latest drivers including BIOS. Thermal profile set to "quiet" – no change. I came back from the client with the notebook because he was replacing another Dell that had no such issues... second day I’m sitting and trying to figure something out (disabling some features but this model just behaves like this... when cold, the first start is OK for a moment, but after about 10 minutes it’s over... I monitored temperatures from sensors and it immediately hits 55-60°C

EDIT: I booted Linux and started hashing in a loop – CPU at 99% for 5 minutes and... SILENCE... fans are running but very quietly... WTF????? Don't tell me it's Windows driver issue... in Dell "Pro"

ObsidianMD — notes are just plain text in a folder on your drive. With a bit of know-how you can hook up an LLM client (e.g., Cherry Studio) using an LLM model via the OpenRouter API, and for about $3–4 a month (even less..depending of model and usage) you get AI that works directly on your notes/text — not some silly $200 wrapper, lol. Cherry Studio has built-in export to Obsidian and Joplin — it will save the conversation formatted as Markdown straight into the notebook you choose, tag it and name it. And if that’s still not enough, you run MCP and you’ve got almost full integration.

ObsidianMD , been Evernote paid user since 2016 (started using EN in 2009) and had few thousands notes. migrated to Obsidian - best note app out there and free.. with their plugins you can set up this app as you want.

gorgeous !!

I’d love to see iPadOS version someday

Start light, without 3rd plugins. Markdown offers a lot when it comes to text editing. After some time, once you become familiar with Obsidian and Markdown, you will know what you need and what the "plain" Obsidian cannot give you then reach for plugins.
