  • Not even in Israel, all Jews agree with how things are handled by the government (and I’m well aware that Israel isn’t all Jews, but also various Arab ethnicities).

    Just because a person is Jewish doesn’t mean they need to justify why they oppose the government of Israel. I’m not pressing Christians here either about whether they oppose the actions of the Trump administration which is heavily influenced by evangelicals. But this is unfortunately where Antisemitism kicks in: it’s the thinking that Jews are a kind of global cabal, and everyone living in diaspora is a kind of agent. So they’re responsible for any bad actions done by Jews anywhere.





  • SSRIs and SNRIs helped a lot of people, going after them is a recipe for disaster.

    Sure, I’d prefer if fewer people needed them, and they do have downsides. But in my opinion, the reasons for the mental conditions that require treatment are mostly societal, and there are no signs of these improving.

    What’s the alternative going to be? Tricyclics? Therapy for everyone? I suspect it’s a “fuck you” to everyone affected.

    My only hope is that he’ll actually push for legalisation of psychedelics which in some cases might offer an alternative, though they come with their own downsides (e.g. a friend of mine is on SSRIs but probably couldn’t replace them with psychs for his depression because he had panic attacks and could be at risk for psychosis).

    Luckily we aren’t US citizens.

    You don’t configure GRUB directly in NixOS. You configure it like everything else via NixOS modules which are pretty robust (but with enough energy, you can probably create something that passes evaluation but won’t actually work). Only my VPSs use GRUB, the rest lanzaboote and none of these ever broke.

    So I’d say breaking your GRUB config by accident in NixOS is very unlikely.
