Generally deploying some kind of service.

It's things like this that prevent me from using Linux more.

I force myself to use it for projects where it's an option because I feel I need to learn it better but I kind of dread it every time.

Inevitably I'm stuck frustrated reading conflicting guides from years ago and wondering just how badly I'm going to fuck things up this time.

Sometimes it all feels so esoteric.

Something like that, yes.

No, what Israel is doing makes sense from a strictly selfish point of view.

The question of 'Why doesn't Israel integrate the Palestinians?' is a good one. The answer is numbers.

Israel was founded as a Jewish ethnostate. Those who have immigrated there have done so because they wanted to live in a Jewish ethnostate. So one of the core values of the country is that it is primarily a place for Jews.

If Israel absorbed the populations of Gaza and the West Bank into Israel, the Jewish population would become a minority in Israel if not immediately then within a generation.

I don't agree with the idea of ethnostates in general and I do believe establishing Israel as one was a mistake.

... But if you imagine the viewpoint of someone who does want a Jewish ethnostate like so many in Israel you can see why this solution is a non starter.

I've gone to playing Project 1999, an OG EverQuest emulator server.

It's only up to velious and it's as close to how the game was back then as you can get.

I don't recommend it to people who never played EQ back in the day - games have changed far too much for this ancient game to be fun for most people who don't have nostalgia for that era of gaming.

But sounds like you might, so I thought I'd suggest it to you.

I'll tell you, I have my setup to the point where I go to one website, subscribe to a show, and episodes of that show appear to watch on my TV same day they are released.

I also set myself up to get email alerts telling me what new episodes I have to watch when they are done being downloaded.

... Setting all that up took me awhile and will take tech skills. But now that it's set up, it's zero touch aside from adding new shows.

Plus, I never have to worry about trying to find where to stream at it and even if my Internet goes out I can still watch my shows

alot of ppl on fedi are privacy-oriented and focused

I'm aware. I'm just reminding you that most outside the fediverse aren't.

Tell that to the dude who will probably never have a partner.

Not everyone cares so much about that.

Someone knowing things about me in general is not a big deal.

Yes, they exist, but then so do lesbian women.

The existence of homosexuality doesn't make the gender imbalance any less painful.****

I was pointing out that this statement you made:
Gaza has a majortiy of Muslims but never rejected "citizenship" to Jews or Christians.

Is very, very wrong.
