    Why is there a ICC case of genocide against Israel but not China or Russia?

  • Lots of people and countries are claiming Russia is committing genocide and are investigating that possibility.

    Several nations and legal institutions have also classed China's actions against the Uyghur as genocidal.

    However, as far as I'm aware neither Russia or China are signed up to the ICC so there's not much point in using that body to penalise them.

    Israel is though and your claim there's no proof is literally true (in the sense you used the word 'proof') but there is plenty of evidence that Israel certainly has genocide very much in the forefront of their minds when members of the Israeli government suggest nuking Gaza, or creating 'no go' areas for Palestinians in recognised Palestinian areas that just so happen to be where Palestinian farmers grow and harvest food. Israeli historian of the Holocaust Omer Bartov warned that statements made by top Israeli officials "could easily be construed as indicating a genocidal intent."

  • Do any of you have that one service that just breaks constantly? I'd love to love Nextcloud, but it sure makes that difficult at times

  • In my own personal experience, Nextcloud;

    • Needs constant attention to prevent falling over
    • Administration is a mess
    • Takes far too long to get used to its 'little ways'
    • Basics like E2EE don't work
    • Sync works when it feels like it
    • Updating feels like russian roulette

  • hey - trying to switch from Chrome to Firefox, what are your recommended extensions and/or quality of life addins, etc?

    Linguist is a translation extension that respects your privacy. If you switch to the Bergamot translator it acts in offline mode.

    Redirector which allows you to set custom rules so you can redirect (for example) Twitter to Nitter, Instagram to PikUki and also rules to redirect pages that are behind paywalls via 12ft.io (or 1ft.io as 12ft is currently down) .

    TamperMonkey a userscript manager. I don't have loads of userscripts but I do have things like SocialFixer for making FB a bit better, Absolute Enable Right Click and Bandcamp Volume Bar.
