  I fully support this. This is a very easy to implement. 99% of the documents don’t require specific msoffice undocumented features

  I think you are wrong.

  Israel doesn’t want a unified Iran

  I think it’s better for israel to put someone with whom they can cooperate than to let it go to a civil war.

  because Iran is mostly unified under their hatred for Israel due to its various crimes.

  IMHO, this isn’t true. Israel was able to pinpoint the location of top political figures extremely easy. That means that the civil society hates more the government than israel. If they hated israel more then, they wouldn’t be able to pull the moves they did (like killing a hamas top operative in a safe house)

  Anyway, this is just a guessing exercise. Nobody knows the future. Let’s hope for the best for the iranian people.

  Israel knows there will never be a friendly government to them in Iran, Israel knows that hatred for Israel is broad and will survive a regime change, especially one triggered by a war of aggression from Israel.

  I dunno. Lots of iranians don’t like their government.

  The only answers i can give you without conspiracy theories:

  But why now? Why at all?

  The top of the Iran administration (khamenei and top military generals) decided the meet in person. Israel found out and bombed the shit out of the building. That’s why khamenei and top military generals all died in the beginning of the war.

  The negotiations where progressing in a good rhythm and it caught the US (Israel informed US right before the bombing, but there was nothing US could do) and Iran of guard.

  Is Israel gaining something that I’m not seeing?

  Iran is the only close country that still keeps an aggressive stand against Israel (mainly by using hezbollah as a proxy). By doing this Israel wants a more friendly government.

  Thanks!

  I’ve been looking into the area in google maps, and unfortunately for me, as i don’t have a way to compare the before and after, it looks like the success is minimal.

  I’m hopefully that the improvement continues.

  this + remapping the remote youtube button seems to be the solution.

  Thanks!

  That’s via DNS, right? If so i don’t think it will work, i’m using https://nextdns.io/ with lots of block lists and it doesn’t work.

  I don’t think the ICE officer will care about your rights, much less about rights that they don’t even know…

  Why not jitsi meet? Isn’t better to use an already “established” opensource conferencing tool?

  They could just selfhost their instance.
