Sorry, i dont want to be rude, but do you actually have any arguments other than gesturing at the article & giving both-sides-isms?

Hamas has committed war crimes, yes, however it shouldn’t be ignored that Israel is currently engaged in terrorism, genocide, land grabs, torture of prisoners and more. Simply saying “both sides bad” lays the blame more evenly than it should be laid.

The article also mentions that Israel has started using it in their own propaganda videos. showing the triangle over targets as they’re hit, and when you flip it like that there’s a very clear implication of destroying the symbol of freedom… Which is to say, I still fail to see your ultimate point. You’re just pointing at the news article and saying “SEE! THEY SAY ITS BAD!”

Could you provide some actual argumentation to go with that?

And just so it doesnt seem like I’m running, “Targeting reticle” would imply a weapon optic or similar, hence my confusion. “using it to mark targets” would have been clearer.

Asking you what you mean by calling the triangle a “targeting reticle” absolutely does not mean I don’t know the topic at hand, its me asking you to clarify your argumentation.

What is this even in reference to? Do you care to elaborate on the propaganda you’re trying to spew, or are you just expecting me to know the same talking points as you?

Now I might just be too stupid to understand what I’m displaying, but last I checked, the red triangle has been a symbol of pro-Palestinian support since the Palestinian Revolt in uhhhh… 1938. It’s possible Hamas might have co-opted it, but then you might as well ban the Palestinian flag as well since that’s the source of the triangle, and it has also existed since 1917, I’m failing to follow how this is a symbol of Hamas

I totally understand where you’re coming from. It’s absolutely not uncommon to casually refer to high-rank NCOs as Officers (in Canada at least)

I did it with Debian 12 bookworm. I’m working on getting the web interface accessible externally, as it’s bound to local host only by default.

Theres 2 steps where you need to watch for noob traps if you plan on using Debian, one in particular being where the link to Rustup is contained within the command block, you need to navigate there in your web browser to grab the rustup install script before you run the commands. If you hit a wall, feel free to message me and I may be able to help!

Just about to get the web interface running!

The build from source is actually incredibly straightforward! There’s a few noob issues if you don’t fully read the command blocks included in the instructions (They have some links you need to navigate to to install dependencies) but beyond that, for how large everything is, I’m very surprised how easy they make it! If it was difficult last time you tried, I’d give it another shot!

If Greenbone doesn’t work out I might try this next, it looks interesting.

I originally crossed this one out because of the docker requirement, but because of your comment i looked again. It looks like it can be built from source instead! I’m deploying it after work tomorrow

Yes and at the end of the day it’s all just binary getting dumped into a cache and processed by the CPU. The point is that the intent of the file matters and while they do both hold text, the intent, purpose, and handling of the kernel mode/ring 0 driver is much different than a “simple text file”

So different in fact, that as another user pointed out, it has happened to Linux too

Calling a kernel mode driver a “simple text file” sure is interesting

Not to jump at you in another comment thread, but any OS that is deployed in a business environment should have some form of endpoint protection installed unless it is fully airgapped + isolated.

Despite the myth that “Linux doesn’t get malware”, it absolutely does and should have protection installed. Even if the OS itself was immune to infection, any possible update can introduce a vulnerability to that.

Additionally, again, even if the OS (or kernel in the case of linux) couldn’t be infected or attacked, the packages or services installed can be attacked, infected, or otherwise messed with and should be protected.

I’m not sure if you intended to reply to me, but I am aware of this. Thanks for checking my understanding though :)

I see you’re operating on a plane of reality where windows is the only bad software, so it’s kinda pointless for me to continue here. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Y’know, I’m pretty deep in the FLOSS brainrot, but as someone who: A. Daily drives Fedora and Debian B. Works for an MSP and deals with Windows daily

Most companies cannot afford the productivity, monetary, or labour hour investment that is involved with changing to a whole new OS and re-training all of the workforce. Thats even if you ignore that switching to Linux generally also involves changing some percentage of programs that are used for business critical processes.

I love Linux, but it’s not meant for every situation

Is your point “Linux and Mac dont get viruses or targeted for cyberattacks”?

Or is it “This wouldn’t have broken on a different operating system”?

This was very much not caused by windows

I edited one word of my comment because I had another reply from someone who misunderstood what I was referring to, so i clarified so there wouldnt be further confusion, not to give myself an excuse to be snarky.

• I’ve read the article you’ve provided a number of times previously and while yes, it does indicate that there is no scientific evidence for my claim, it is limited to the UK.

• I don’t see what interbreed-ability has to do with invasiveness?

I don’t care about some American publication talking about cats

• I provided 3 sources, one was American, the others were from Oxford (also in the UK last I checked) and Tillburg (Netherlands), both discussing the EU broadly

• Here is another study from the checks notes British Ecological Society which concludes in part

“…It is also well established that free-ranging cats pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation and restoration worldwide, and that remedying this threat is relatively easy when compared to other drivers of biodiversity loss…”

If you’re not going to read the evidence I’m providing, while saying I’m only providing americentric evidence, then I’m going to respectfully abandon this thread. I apologize for the snark, that was uncalled for.

Edit: formatting only

I was specifically referring to domesticated cats not being native to these regions since that was what is being discussed.
