    Absolutely, well put!! It’s honestly sad in my eyes

    I’ve given up especially when it comes to Linux vs Mac on the topic of open source. People will have such a violent reaction that they cannot possibly consider Apple as anything else but the literal antithesis of open source.

    if you think Apple has a place in open source, you’d be right, but you’ll also get attacked for it because Apple bad.

    Only a handful of months ago Apple released open source AI models that run on-device.

    It’s so obvious over many years that Apple has always gotten their hands dirty in the open source world going back to even before the birth of OSX, both with use and contributions, yet this is stomped out by the notion of expensive and elitist Apple could never and would never actually bother contributing to open source codebases



  • pretty sure the latest blow to the ceasefire and thus the latest to walk away from the table as you put it, was Hamas adding yet more terms, but okay.

    President Joe Biden’s months-long push for a cease-fire and hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas has been upended again in recent days, putting the deal on life support as U.S. officials say they are reassessing next steps after they initially hoped to present the two sides with a “take it or leave it” proposal in the coming days.

    The latest obstacle — the abrupt introduction by Hamas of a new demand surrounding which prisoners Israel would release — underscores the frustrating, often excruciating process that has preoccupied top U.S. officials, and Biden himself, for nine months. At several recent points the United States, along with Qatar and Egypt, believed a deal was within reach, only for Israel or Hamas to derail the talks with new demands that set negotiators back weeks or months.

    Obligatory fuck the IDF and Bibi and Hamas. Reminder that hostages and killing said hostages are also warcrimes, disgusting acts on both sides. No this isn’t whataboutism, it’s not an excuse but it simply is not just about the piece of shit IDF. Hamas has responsibility here as well.
