I had a decently awarded account on SO because I joined it in 2012. I asked and answered questions. For the first few years it was fucking awesome as a professional developer. Then it's popularity on google search results ended up making it too well known and the comment quality dropped substantially. Then the fucking powerusers popped up and started flagging almost everye one my questions as duplicates while pointing to unrelated questions. The last I really used SO was around 2017. I got too fed up to participate in the platform because when I spent the time to make a well formed question, it would just got shut down and my time wasted.

International lawmakers are already pissed off enough at Israel that I wouldn't be surprised if it was actually the cause of war. They're only tip toeing around it right now because peacekeeping wars are very unpopular. Kill your own citizens? That's fine just keep the international casualties down. Kill international diplomats? War.
Is that a jim kb comic? Where's the author's signature?
A state shooting diplomats would be casus belli.
I just uninstalled it on my work pc. I got fed up when certain applications saved a cache to somewhere in %APPDATA% that got backed up every Tuesday. The apps then saw the cache changed and attempted to reconcile the changes and corrupted my work.
Never again.
Gosh if only police had a procedure for announcing their presence before someone opens the door so that person is less likely to hold a gun and get shot to death for answering the door in the middle of the night. Maybe it should be something like "this is the police"?
They have a huge safety-orange pull tab that disconnects the two banks of the battery. But even then you shouldn't operate on them unless you are trained. 350 VDC is no joke.
