Well, at least under capitalism a few people do get to live well…
I don’t have a profile picture, but just FYI I’m shirtless right now.
At least you can fix the sleeves in public. Uncomfortable is when your underwear slides down inside your pants.
Ok but then who exactly is the World Bank propagandizing to on Twitter?
Why was the World Bank advertising on Twitter (or anywhere) in the first place?
I’m surprised that Hamas apparently did not retrieve the corpses (which are still valuable to them) for six months. My understanding is that information about where hostages are kept is deliberately decentralized to prevent any single leak from letting Israel know all their locations. Did everyone who knew that these hostages were there die? Or maybe the tunnel ventilation system was either insufficient or damaged and the air in that tunnel was unbreathable this whole time?
Edit: Also I’m not seeing this information on www.ynetnews.com which is the Israeli newspaper that OP’s article claims as its source.
I’m not trying to be pedantic, but I thought a ceasefire meant a temporary pause in hostilities, as opposed to a peace treaty which would be permanent.
The five-minute piano solo is dedicated “to the journalists of Gaza,” according to D’Netto.
The MSO said it does not condone the expressing of political opinions onstage and apologised for the comments.
Comments of that sort would be clearly unprofessional in the context of a more “ordinary” job, but I suppose a musician might feel that his performance is not just work for pay but also a form of self-expression. Clearly the orchestra disagrees, although perhaps they would have tolerated something more anodyne like “world peace”.
We need another meme like this about Firefox but with the first panel saying “Antitrust judgement against Google” and the second panel blank, without anyone coming to the rescue.
The large majority of Mozilla’s revenue comes from the money that Google pays to be the default search engine in Firefox.
$5 million for information on Fuad Shukr
played a central role in the October 23, 1983 bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps Barracks in Beirut which killed 241 U.S. military personnel and wounded 128 others

There’s the US side and the bad guy side but I think some Americans would support Satan himself as long as he was anti-America.
Then the artist searched his library for a card and put that card in his hand.
Edit: did you clean the dust out of the fans and heat sink?
Governments do have the option of simply buying the patent from the drug company (no communism necessary) but Americans have rejected socialized medicine for Americans. I don’t expect that they would want to subsidize medicine for poor Africans.
By that logic, the profit on software (which is free to copy) is infinite. You need to look at revenues minus costs for the whole company, not for the specific act of manufacturing a pill.
In that scenario, why would drug companies bother to develop drugs that deeply impart public health? They already prioritize drugs for smaller numbers of rich people rather than drugs for larger numbers of poor people (e.g. antibiotics). If they can’t make a large profit off of developing an AIDS vaccine, they’re going to work on something like weight-loss drugs instead.
I think many people dramatically overestimate how profitable drug companies are. The average net profit for a brand-name drug manufacturer is actually less than 30% (source). They’re about as profitable as tech companies.
That’s still quite profitable, but I suspect that if you were to limit them to 30% net profits on their most successful blockbuster drugs, their overall net profits (which have to compensate for the R&D that goes into failed drugs) might not even be positive.
The dolphin was diagnosed only a few weeks ago, but it died over two years ago in March 2022.
If I recall correctly, when trade is considered to be zero-sum, the net exporter gains and the net importer loses. Therefore if what’s bad for Israel is what’s good for Turkey and vice versa, this is worse for Turkey.
Maybe I’m wrong - I wasn’t very good at macroeconomics.
It sounds like it’s worse for Turkey than for Israel.
Capitalism is to blame!
