What incentive do they have at this point to return to the old status quo?
If the US fucks off, then Iran is left in a powerful negotiation position. They could us this incident to help normalize relatuons with oyher gulf states by pointing how the US and Israel started the fight, then left them all high and dry. They could make non-agression and safe passage deals with the gulf states as well as exhert real pressure against the normalization of relations with Israel.

I use Windows 10, MacOS, and Linux. Use the right tool for the job is whatI always say. Linux is the right tool most of the time, just not all of the time.

- Comment on As US Slaughters Iranian Kids, Iran Says It Does Not Want to Hurt Americans 2 days ago:
That’s because, unlike the maniacal morons currently in charge of our government, the Iranians are not stupid. They know that the Trump administration is extremely unpopular and vulnerable. Screaming “death to America” or “the streets will run red with American blood”, etc. is only going to bolster support for Trump, out of fear. If instead they reassure the American population that there is no intention to bring harm to them, then the American people will (hopefully) reject Trump and his batshit agenda.

- Comment on Do RICH people of color ever get harassed by ICE? 3 days ago:
Yes. I’m a person of color that gets mistaken for hispanic, middle eastern, etc depending on location (I’m very mixed). I made it a point to buy a brand new BMW i4 M50 EV and a used 2021 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG because I was gerring harassed while driving my beloved Ford Fiesta. Since getting the nice cars, I have not been bothered once.
It’s bullshit, but I understand the “why”. Bothering someone wity money is a pain in the ass and detrimental to their career. They can fuck with poor people all day long without consequences.

As a middle aged man, I think it would be hilarious if I put that on my car. Unfortunately, I think people would immediately assume that I’m some sex trafficker like Andrew Tate rather than someone that gets paid to put on a show.
- Comment on i have a fantasy of marrying a divorced dad and being the young cool stepmom 4 days ago:
In my experience, having kids didn’t factor much into the conversations. Not having children was acceptable and in many circumstances beneficial. What did come up every single time was marriage status (single, married, divorced, widowed). The vibe I got was that the biggest red flag for a middle aged man was never had been married. I guess that paints the man as either selfish, a man-child, or both. In all, not positive.

So your ex’s actions are inadvertently serving as your wingman? Nice.

I think it’s a fairly common fantassy. Never in my life have I been hit on as much by young women as when I got a touch of grey in my beard and temples. It started in my early forties and I assume it will stop once I pass or get close to sixty, but holy shit!
My best friend (f) since high school use to tell me how she loved men with a little grey. When she was 19, she even went out of her way to pick a guy (~43) up at the gym and bring him to her place to fuck. I always thought she was goofy but once I got my grey I realized how common a fantasy it actually is.

- Comment on Which Linux Distribution has the best Community Support? 6 days ago:
Well, Raspbian is an entirely different architecture so it never occurred to me to ask questions about Raspbian anywhere not Raspbian specific. That said, I take answers for Ubuntu, Debian and Mint when working on my Pop!_OS install without issue. The same applies to my Mint and LMDE installs.
- Comment on Which Linux Distribution has the best Community Support? 6 days ago:
My answer is that as long as you pick a Debian based distro, you can ask any of their chat rooms a question and the answer will likely apply to all the Debian distros.
- Comment on Which Linux Distribution has the best Community Support? 1 week ago:
Debian is the correct answer, mainly because Ubuntu, Pop!_OS, and Mint are all Debian based, so most of their suggestions work with one another.

- Comment on Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS 1 week ago:
Jokes aside though, we have to use Windows 10 iot VMs and VDIs to connect to secure production environments due to our clients’ corporate policies. Currently we host and sandbox the VMs on Linux servers in order to ensure the integrity of our interactions with the client systems. How the fuck arebwe supposed to do that in the future when the VM’s OS is constantly chatting with a third party?

Gen-X here. Most of us grew up on absolute trash weed. Modern weed is incredibly clean and strong. Vapes are a distillation of that. When it’s all said and done, taking deep hits of a THC vape after only having a few puffs at a Pearl Jam concert back in 1994, might lead to regrettable consequences.
