That’s the historical meaning but it can also mean this (according to Merriam Webster):
3 a: to reduce drastically especially in number
An outbreak of cholera decimated the population.
Kamieniecki’s return comes at a crucial time for a pitching staff that has been decimated by injuries.— Jason Diamos
3 b: to cause great destruction or harm to
A fire decimated the city.
An industry decimated by recession

What about “Aging Movie is Ominously Current” or AMOC for short?
This is what happens when you take away the island but don’t jail the people.
Haven’t taken a look yet but there’s a zip file link.
Trump became president and ratfucked the global economy but at least Israel got it’s weapons.
Not even a day old account and you are here saying stuff that’s clearly antisemitic. Suspicious to say the least.
For one, the victims are never at fault when it comes to genocide and oppression, no one “deserves” it.
Why do you think they are cheering because they are Jewish and not because they are a part of a genocidal regime that’s shown itself to be the worlds greatest evil of the past decade or two?
I don’t approve of the cheering but do you really think everyone is too stupid to see the spin you are trying to pull with it? Pathetic.

Point me towards a comment where you have been critical of Israel bombing hospitals in Lebanon, bombing refugee camps in Palestine or causing over 1000 civilian deaths in Iran these past few weeks.
I know it’s a bad thing to kill civilians. That’s why I’m against the country that goes out of its way to do it. Israel revels in civilian deaths.
It’s a common Israeli talking point to associate any critique of their government with antisemitism.
It’s very transparent.
It’s the same people acting as mouthpieces that are silent when Israel actually targets hospitals or their soldiers torture babies and rape prisoners. Hard to pretend they aren’t the ones indoctrinated to hate a specific set of people.
Your hate towards anyone that isnt subservient to Israel has turned a massively shitty theocratic regime into some kind of weird underdog worth cheering for.
It’s like if Italy and Germany were fighting in WW2 and you dont understand why people are cheering on Italy, but even more, you actually think the Nazis are the good guys. Everyone else is simply going “they both suck but one is clearly worse than the other, because of the genocide and all”.
Put all the quotes that you like but you are either against Zionism or pro genocide.
I feel like luxury goods are harder to get into in terms of career change and it’s a bit off to characterize them as always needed.
If we enter a depression, people will have less money to spend on luxuries. I just think the percentage of people buying hand made furniture is kind of low. I think most people “buy” them from friends and family doing it as a semi-hobby, or are rich, at least in my experience.
Not trying to be overly critical, just saying it’s not easy.
As a side note, I’ve noticed no one makes nice wooden informational kiosks with integrated touch screen even though orgs like museums would likely buy them over plastic and metal ones. Just an idea if you were looking for a niche product.
Anything that’s done on site or with your hand. Forget about working from home or having your own hours though, most of the benefits you are used to won’t exist and it will be arguably harder work physically depending.
I’d pick something that can’t be automated since that’s also a risk even if it’s not directly AI. That means something to complicated for robots (not much), too big or messy, where it can’t be trusted entirely to robots (high safety like making plane parts) or most likely where robots can’t easily go (house plumbing and electricity for example).
A lot of trades and manual work pay very well but you have to look before hand, it’s definitely not all of them. Cooking jobs for example are pretty safe but don’t ever become a cook lol.
If you have dev experience, I’d go towards micro electronics. It’s too niche for AI to be good at it yet and has the physical part of prototyping and soldering that isn’t easily accessible by AI.
What? Ikea wrecked that a long time ago. Not that you can’t make a living but the demand isn’t high in any way whatsoever. Hand crafted furniture has become a luxury.
The reason is in the post tbh
The whole area has little food security and no water security. A few desalination plants have already been hit iirc. It’s going to be a huge crisis.
One explanation I heard was that it was very close to a naval base and almost all the students were kids of high ranked officers. They killed their kids to send them a message.
I can’t find the video in the article to confirm, but I also heard it was double tapped.
Your definition excludes a lot of genocides, including the Holocaust, unless the SS are to be considered an unorganized group of civilians. Bosnia, Armania, Cambodia, most except Rwanda.
Of course, that would exclude Gaza as well.
I’d say who is targeted and for what purpose is more important. Targeting military installation vs purely civilian targets like refugee camps for instance.
I thought the same thing right away and it makes the whole thing seem like a dystopian dark comedy. What a nightmare.
