Though NSM-20 imposes no new legal requirements, it also asks Secretary of State Antony Blinken to report to Congress by May 8 on whether he believes Israel has complied with the assurances.

But an internal State Department memo ― obtained by Reuters and published Saturday ― was jointly submitted to Blinken, and included four bureaus who said they do not find “credible or reliable” the Israeli government’s pledge that its military is using weapons supplied by the U.S. in accordance with international humanitarian law.

The senior officials reportedly cited eight examples of Israeli military action in the memo that could be considered such violations ― including the repeated bombing of protected sites and civilian infrastructure, a massive level of civilian harm, the lack of accountability for those who cause significant civilian harm, and the killing of journalists and humanitarian workers. The bureaus also cited nearly a dozen instances that the Israeli military would “arbitrarily restrict humanitarian aid,” according to Reuters.

A huge post about how to create a Facebook business account without a personal account. The whole thing was filler text and ambiguous sentences like this

The internet is dying, but it is being killed!

I use KDE on arch and would like to achieve the following behavior:

Whatever way I launch Konsole, I want it to check whether there already is a Konsole instance. If one exists, it should be brought into focus, and if no instance exists, one should be launched.

I am unable to find such an option in the Konsole settings, even though I found a roughly 1 year old forum entry mentioning such a setting. Was it removed or am I just blind? Or do I need some optional dependency?

Avert your gaze! He's shy!

Two examples:

Saving Private Ryan - Spielberg made the whole main cast go through 2 weeks of "hell week" boot camp. He made them suffer together.

Then he flew Matt Damon in on a private jet, put him up in a nice place, and made the rest of the cast fully aware of it.

So there was actually real animosity towards Damon for not having suffered like they did and you could feel it in the movie.

Inglorious Bastards - Quinton told Eli Roth they were going to shoot the "bear Jew" scene a certain day. He put him in the cave and filmed other things. Only to say they weren't ready for him.

He did this I think 2 or 3 days in a row.

When Roth finally comes out you can just see in his eyes the craziness and I can't imagine how it must have felt to finally be set free from this literal cage (cave).

What other examples do you know?

I recently bought a Drop ENTR, and I would like to use the media keys. On the drop.com website it says that using FN + the F-keys should work, but “Fn hotkeys may work with Windows operating system only.”. Well, for me it doesn’t work. Any ideas as to why that could be, or how I could go about creating a workaround?

obligatory I use arch btw

In most countries it will be probably DnD. But in mine (Poland) for many years Warhammer Fantasy was THE RPG. Nowadays it is more equal. Other popular games are Call of Cthulhu and World of Darkness line. I see that recently Shadows of the Demon Lord gains popularity. There is also quite alive indie scene. We have some bigger, commercial Polish RPGs (like Monastyr, Neuroshima, Wolsung), but nowadays they are rather not played.
