Biden calls for 'immediate ceasefire' in Gaza
  • thank you for the explanation that is a lot more understandable now.

    hostages being released in order to stop the violence is what I was thinking.

    but you're saying it's more like losing leverage in order to temporarily pause the violence.

    they would have nothing left to bargain with and would just have to hope the world actually cares enough to step in.

    I can definitely see why they wouldn't want to do that

  • Biden calls for 'immediate ceasefire' in Gaza
  • maybe I am missing something that I don't see why that is an objectionable position? like obviously the ceasefire needs to happen immediately but what is wrong with hostage release as part of it?

    not that long ago politicians were doing anything they could to avoid the word ceasefire and now they're actively calling for it I'm really not thinking that this is an unchanged position but I am willing to listen if I have some drastic misunderstanding.

  • Biden calls for 'immediate ceasefire' in Gaza
  • honestly doesn't it seem like this change of direction is him listening? Even weeks ago I would have never thought I would have heard the words ceasefire out of his mouth.

    to me this seems like a direct response of the message people sent to him with the Michigan primary and I am happy to see it.

    doesn't mean I'm happy with what he's done so far or even that he has not immediately taken direct action but this is a pivot and failing to acknowledge it weakens protest actions like this in the future.

  • graphene os advice

    so I've got a pixel 6A and I really like the device itself, but the last several months of updates have just screwed it up over and over again.

    first I lost my fingerprint sensor and it still hasn't been fixed with any of the updates. now with one of the more recent beta updates I have seen intermittent cell service issues in areas where I never used to have service issues.

    I've been considering switching over to graphene for a while now but wanted some feedback on how that works when I'm not really trying to disconnect from the rest of Google services.

    I use family link for my kids tablets, I use Google pay I use Gmail etc.

    Will I have any issues if I switch using the same Google services?

    also I use Nova launcher, and it would be convenient if I could save that profile and import it, assuming Nova works just fine on graphene as well?

  • I love memory foam but yeah I have the same problem, I get quite a bit more longevity by regularly rotating, but with the way these things are built you can only rotate and not flip.

    Video Game Industry Greed Hits New Low As Blizzard Begins Charging $30 Dollars For Class-Restricted 'Diablo IV' Portal Colors
  • this is where I'm at, grim dawn is great.

    D3 eventually got to a place where I actually liked it although it was too simplistic for most people.

    I picked up D4 played the first season got bored before I even got it to end game content and gave up

    POE had fun gameplay but is artificially cluttered and constantly balancing the fun away.

    I've got high hopes for last epoch we'll see.

  • I guess I don't understand that point of view, not only doesn't that make life easier for us but it also makes it actively worse for them and for the relationships they're involved in if they are not engaging as a real partner.

    why would I wish that on someone else?

  • it always just makes me feel kind of sad and awkward

    like sometimes my wife will get off the phone after having some long and serious seeming conversation with a friend of hers and thank me like it's some big accomplishment for basic things like doing the dishes and spending time with our kids.

    The bar is low guys we got to step this shit up.

  • Spirit Island expansions?

    Been enjoying playing Spirit Island lately and was thinking about picking up a couple of the expansions.

    I've only got the base game so far and was wondering which expansions to go for.

    One thing I'm noticing is that they all seem to be extremely well reviewed which is not making the decision any easier lol.

    what do you all think? anything essential?

    any other pixel 6 users lose their fingerprint and biometrics settings options completely after the latest update?

    I'm on Android 13 not 14 and I've seen reports a few months ago about this happening for 14.

    I've got no option to update or roll back and all fingerprint related settings and the fingerprint functionality have just vanished as if it's not being detected at all.

    very frustrating trying to remember passwords for all sorts of apps that expect biometric login.

    anyone else see this or have a fix for it?

    Don't delete posts/comments from edit mode until you're sure that they successfully posted

    especially with all of the connectivity errors as things ramp up, it is very frustrating to write out a long post and then lose it when you submit it because you get some random error and have to try and remember everything you just said.

    when posting or commenting you should stay and edit mode after hitting, submit until you get the confirmation of a successful post.

    popping up which specific error you're getting is already happening and will be very helpful if things need to be edited as well.
