And what if the army splits in two? That happens in civil wars ya know!

Chat GPT is great at writing comments. Usually writes better comments than I do. I’m using copilot which uses Chat GPT so it’s also repo aware.

Two nostrils allows for stereo smells. If we only had one nostril, we would only be able to smell in mono.

One or more people on the board were upset with Sam pushing Open AI towards a “for profit” business model because they wanted to be all altruistic and not paywall things. But they were completely ignorant of the expensive reality of their tech (look up the tons of articles about Open AI burning through money) and after firing Sam, likely got a rude awakening from people in the company showing them the books. Once they realized their out of business in less than a year if they don’t monetize things, suddenly Sam’s ideas aren’t so bad and they know they just fucked the entire company over.

I think the way most Germans have owned the mistakes of Germany past, instead of trying to deny or ignore them, is an example that should be applauded and emulated by the rest of the world.

Right, I don’t care about him having an ego, I just don’t like how he talks over everybody else and won’t let anyone else get a word in. He acts like a coke head. I doubt he is, but he sure acts like one.

Hamas kidnapped some American citizens and is holding them in Gaza. The US would likely prefer to attempt any rescue themselves or at least assist in any attempts.

Apparently I get my world news from the history books, here’s a few examples you can look up:

• 1967 Israel takes control of the entire Sinai Peninsula

• 1971 Israel returns Sinai Peninsula to Egypt

• 1982 Israel invades Lebanon after attacks from militants

• 1983 - 1985 Israel slowly withdraws from most of southern Lebanon

• 2000 Israeli completes withdrawal from Lebanon

• 2005 Israel withdraws all military and civilians from the Gaza Strip and hands over control to the Palestinian Authority

• 2007 Hamas violently overthrew the PA in Gaza (bet you didn’t cry about this)

• 2023 Israel withdraws from Jenin in the West Bank after invading

Never claimed otherwise. In fact, I literally mentioned Israel stealing land when I wrote:

their approach of taking tiny bites has been subtle enough to avoid causing repercussions, so they most likely just go back to doing that at a later date.

I guess that was too abstract?

You think Israel will just stop and leave the Southern half?

Even if they did, they’re keeping the northern part and annexing it.

I’m opposed to what Israel is doing but the truth is that Israel has repeatedly given back land they have captured during conflicts. So yes, they will not be annexing any land. As well, there is way too much international attention on them right now, whereas their approach of taking tiny bites has been subtle enough to avoid causing repercussions, so they most likely just go back to doing that at a later date.

The thing I don’t understand about this invasion is what’s stopping Hamas from just relocating south with the rest of the Palestinians? Sure they’ll lose some heavier equipment that might be hard to move but they don’t have that much of it to begin with. If they stay and fight they’ll lose the equipment anyways, and only end up getting killed. Whereas if they leave with the civilians, then Israel will look stupid after invading Gaza only to find nothing. Huge failure for them.

I totally agree. I think a separate internationally recognized Palestinian state is the only solution to keep Israel from encroaching on any more land than they have. That’s been offered in the past but turned down by the Palestinians. A separate Palestinian state will also not prevent both sides from firing rockets at each other until the end of time.

Great points, but that doesn’t stop Egypt from allowing food, water, humanitarian aid, etc from being brought into Gaza, but people talk like Israel has 100% control over Gaza’s borders.

Besides, if Gaza and the West Bank were officially the state of Palestine, Israel would have no obligation to allow free passage between Israel and Palestine so it would basically be the same as it is now, although I’m assuming that right now there is also a naval blockade.
