They unironically are, gaming is no longer a small nerd niche, but rather a mainstream activity.
neoromantique··on NotepadNext – a cross-platform reimplementation of Notepad++
It helps when it is a bit more interactive, i.e when I only need to replace some of the occurrences versus everything.

Also when working with lists it is useful, you spawn cursors on , or < or whatever symbol you've got at a fixed location between lines, and then you can manipulate text in any number of otherwise different lines.

TIL, thank you for informing me.

I started using VPN full-time and Reddit bans any datacentre ip address, does wonders to fight muscle memory built over decades to avoid this god forsaken site.

First symptom of Lyme is very distinct red oval on a place that got bit, if you see it then evaluating the tick is kinda pointless at that point.

Thanks for recommendation, we are looking to move our servers off Hetzner for precisely the same reasons.

I live in a place with real winters and road salt and I can assure you that modern cars are plenty corroded by 5 year mark if they weren't treated additionally post manufacturing for it.

You are clearly not arguing in good faith. Comparing Bandera to Hitler is utterly ridiculous, and I am Jewish myself, so I'm not exactly standing in line to protect UPA/Bandera.

Regarding Azov, I am native Russian speaker with many friends from Ukraine, there are legitimately orgs/groups that you can call out for being open nazis, but if all you can do is comment on Azov in 2023 then you are simply delusional or misled by Russian propaganda, I'm sorry.

After full scale invasion support of Bandera increased because he was vocal proponent of independent Ukraine, not because he was a nazi collaborator.

It is an argument in bad faith to cite him as a marker of support for 'neo-nazism' in Ukraine, doubly so during time when adversary is coming and is very open about stripping you of your national identity, language and history.

I wonder what happened prior to April 2022 that would explain a significant jump?

Your own link.

Bandera remains a highly controversial figure in Ukraine.[9] Many Ukrainians hail him as a role model hero,[10][11] or as a martyred liberation fighter,[12] while other Ukrainians, particularly in the south and east, condemn him as a fascist,[13] or Nazi collaborator,[10] whose followers, called Banderites, were responsible for massacres of Polish and Jewish civilians during World War II.[14][15] On 22 January 2010, Viktor Yushchenko, the then president of Ukraine, awarded Bandera the posthumous title of Hero of Ukraine, which was widely condemned. The award was subsequently annulled in 2011 given that Stepan Bandera was never a Ukrainian citizen.[16] Bandera gained further prominence following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.[17][18][19]

US is still battling with its confederate past many years later, it's insane to ask country that's had barely 30 years of independence to go through this quicker.
neoromantique··on Wasm3 entering a minimal maintenance phase
In Russia? Wagner, Rusich, etc.

Azov on the other hand is not a "Nazi regiment", it's had troubling beginnings but it was cleared up as it was brought into army ranks.

EDIT: misread the question, in US there aren't 'regiments', but denying the fact that army is rife with supremacists is plain silly.

[Any] Army by itself is a magnet for these sorts of folks, and it takes active effort to weed them out, not something that a country at war can easily afford.

>Neonazism does indeed enjoy broad support there.

Not any more than US or Russia itself

neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
It is important context as the person I was responding to is insinuating that this was just a civilian scholar, which in verifiably false by reading his own tweets.

EDIT: I just saw the same remark towards the comment I responded to, fair enough

neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
Yeah, the moment Hamas rockets start actually hitting civilians en masse the brakes would be off.

You can’t negotiate with Hamas.

neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
Glad to hear that, certainly doesn’t transfer well on the first read, as I saw that sentiment far too widespread last few months.
neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
The only thing that cutting US supplies to Israel is going to accomplish is increase in deaths of innocent Palestinians as Israel will be forced to use less precise munition ‾\_(ツ)_/‾
neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
The blockade didn't originate from some Israeli hatred towards Gaza, it had very clear and objective reasons, so far we only see confirmations of why it was necessary.
neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
Amnesty International has showed itself to be little more than Kremlin mouthpiece in the past few years with a very one sided reporting of Russian invasion of Ukraine.

>Treaties and UN involvement

UN has assisted Hamas in the past, there is no reason to believe it would be any different this time. The history didn't start on October 7th, what has happened on October 7th is the violence went over the threshold in which Israel would believe intent of international community and instead is handling it themselves despite the uproar.

neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
UN has proved itself to be severely biased towards Israel time and time again, so referring to it as some sort of source is weird.

>Refaat Alareer

>Poet

Ah. One of the most known Hamas propagandists is now a mere poet.

neoromantique··on 'Like we were lesser humans': Gaza boys, men recall Israeli arrest, torture
You might be coming from a good place, but you are word for word posting Kremlin talking points currently being pushed all over the place through their think tanks.

Minsk agreements were impossible to uphold and Russia never attempted to do so from the beginning, it was showed upon then much weaker Ukraine as Ukraine was in no position to defend itself then, it is different now.

neoromantique··on Terraform module for scalable GitHub action runners on AWS
We're too small for on-prem services, so not your target market, just shared my 2c as someone who had been burned by self-hosting github runners too many a time.
neoromantique··on Terraform module for scalable GitHub action runners on AWS
It's only really usable for anything that doesn't involve secrets, I'd be very concerned using anything third party in CI, let alone the runner itself. Supply chain attack senses tingling :).
neoromantique··on The pro-Israel information war
Uhhhh, actually, please do that yourself? There is an Arab party in knesset arguing that Israel shouldn’t exist, not sure what else you could even ask for.
