You see to be justifying that? As in “well of course the terrorists are stealing the fuel”? And yet you are at the same time blaming Israel for the fuel shortage? Wow.

Excellent write up! Israeli here. Everything you wrote is spot on. There’s obviously a lot more you didn’t cover, but it’s a good intro :D
The system is rigged against you. Any “gameable” aspect of the system which could be used to even the playing field is either regulated (ie you need a specific license) or billed in such as way to make it unprofitable (or at least transfer all the risk to you).
or maybe they just believe in “from the river to the sea”.
The day the Palestinians puts down their weapons will be the day peace begins. The day Israel puts down their weapons will be the day all Israelis are massacred. That is the difference between the two sides - coexistence vs “from the river to the sea”. Don’t forget who started this war. Jews were already genocided once, so STFU while we defend ourselves after this latest attempt. Nobody else will protect us, so we’re doing it ourselves.

yeah nobody calls to “step in and end” anything for a sovereign country. Good luck trying to “step in” to China, Russia etc. Same for Israel. If you want to dissolve the military then you are welcome to go over there and give it a try.
1st of all, Hamas terrorist attacks also fall into that definition. Secondly, IDF has not targeted any "national, ethnical, racial or religious group”. IDF goals are to eliminate Hamas militants inside the Gaza strip. The general Gazan population was given weeks of advance notice and provided safe/r places to evacuate to. If 100% of the civilians had chosen to cooperate, and Hamas had not forcibly used them as human shields, then there would be no casualties. Clearly that is not a realistic scenario, but it’s important to understand the genocide definition requires intent . IDF is actually attempting to minimize casualties whenever possible. Unfortunately it often isn’t.
Israelis are disturbed by such behavior, the soldiers will be investigated and prosecuted if necessary.
Contrast that with the Gazans who danced in the streets and handed out candy while the dead bodies of Israeli children were being mutilated in front of their eyes by the Hamas terrorists
Laptops are not long-term investments. Hardware innovation makes them obsolete almost as fast as phones. Whenever some new OS security feature comes out that depends on BIOS or chip capabilities then you need to swap motherboards (and often memory) which is the bulk of cost. Or when a new USB format comes out. Or whatever is the “flavor of the month” improvement in GPUs, Bluetooth connectivity etc. The only scenarios in which extensibility really makes sense would be SSD size, maybe battery or RAM. But if it costs double then you would be better off buying a new laptop now and then another in a few years, instead of paying up front for in order to “maybe” be able to swap some of the components later…
Atheism. Most of the atrocities in the world are driven by religion. As the saying goes “good people will do good, bad people will do bad. When good people do bad, there’s probably a religion involved”
Correction: escape routes are targets of Hamas who want to keep the civilian population in place as human shields.
Heartbreaking indeed, but just for the record- The road bomb which killed 70+ was from Hamas. They are literally bombing their own people, putting up roadblocks inside their cities, and confiscating people’s car keys to keep them in the area as human shields.

One pro-tip: you can hack your own mind to work better in these situations by shifting from thinking “OMG why are he/she so stupid for doing X or Y, I would do it better” to “He/she are clearly stupid for doing X or Y, let me use my superior brainpower to guide them to achieving their goals even if they can barely understand/explain what they are trying to do”.
They’re asking not for the info, they are asking to see how you communicate (ie “soft skills”). Your response immediately demonstrates that you do not like people, are probably a PITA to interact with, and will have a hard time collaborating with any other humans who do not think exactly like you do. The good news is that soft skills are skills, and as such they can be learned and improved on.
AliExpress has been solid for the past few years. There’s indeed some sketchy sh*t there but it’s usually pretty obvious what to avoid. And, of course, expect to get what you pay for… a $5 tshirt isn’t going to be the same quality as a $25 one from Amazon.
I live outside the US market. As a rule I’ll pay for whatever content is legally available in my country (netflix, disney+, steam etc) however there are certain publishers and/or content which is simply not offered through any channel. At that point they aren’t going to see $ from me in any case, so I may as well pirate.
Its you who is straight up lyong brah
