Isn’t OsmAnd primarily a navigation app?
StreetComplete is an app that gives you tasks to complete, like “Does the bus stop have a light? Can blind people use the cross walk? What’s the house number? How many bikes can use the bike parking lot?”
It’s a bit like Pokemon Go, but without a for profit company behind it and the result helps other people.
Try it out… It’s free.
#4412 here… Damn… We could hold a community meeting on Lemmy…
What exactly is the point?
I can name you only 2 people from the Israel government. Does that mean that there are only 2? No…
Why are the names relevant? When there is a new hostage deal, there will be armed Hamas people with face masks forcing the hostages on a stage… Ask those Hamas guys what their names are… To be honest: I don’t care about their names at all. Them doing what they are doing clearly shows who’s in power.
We all know that Hamas did not want any fair elections. I mean… Read this…
After Hamas’s June 2007 takeover, it ousted Fatah-linked officials from positions of power and authority (such as government positions, security services, universities, newspapers, etc.) and strove to enforce law by progressively removing guns from the hands of peripheral militias, clans, and criminal groups, and gaining control of supply tunnels. According to Amnesty International, under Hamas rule, newspapers were closed down and journalists were harassed.[191] Fatah demonstrations were forbidden or suppressed, as in the case of a large demonstration on the anniversary of Yasser Arafat’s death, which resulted in the deaths of seven people, after protesters hurled stones at Hamas security forces.[192]

Can you? How can a party hold power if all of its leadership have been executed?
Why exactly can a dead person in power not be replaced with a living one?
I don’t exactly understand the question. Hamas is the de facto government since 2007.
If you want to, we can use a different word like “leaders” or “rulers” or “dictators” or “those in power”, if the word “government” does fit…
Or do you want to question whether Hamas still holds the power in Gaza?
Wow, advocating suicide at least twice in 14 days according to your modlog… You seem to suffer from some kind of learn resistance, too.
If you’re baited into opposing “Hamas”
I kind of got baited into opposing Hamas by… Let me check… Ahm… by Hamas!
That does not mean that I’m not also opposing Netanyahu and his far right assholes.
Both sides have terrible governments.
I think, the average view on a starving Palestinian and a proud member of Hamas or Islamic Dschihad differs. And above, I talked about “Hamas”, not about random people suffering in Gaza.
They caused the invasion but also this started with the Balfour Declaration
Yes, it’s more complicated than you seem to understand.
There was a recent cause for the current escalation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_7_attacks
But the whole conflict lasts longer.
If you want, I could ask ChatGPT to simplify that for you.
The only reason you would rate them higher is because you, like most in the West have been propagandized to demonize Muslims
Wow… I’m talking about Hamas terrorists and do not even mention a religion, but your brain seems to really really really want to connect that to regular Muslims… Why??? Can we please stop acting like Hamas/Islamic Dschihad and average Muslims are the same??? Please??? Doing that seems to actually be islamophobic…
especially ones who take up arms to defend from invaders
If we are talking about Hamas, we are talking about those how also kind of caused the invasion… And yes, I know, the conflict did not start 2 years ago. It kind of started with the Balfour Declaration.
If they let her in… She never went in.
I thought, that was kind of obvious…
Calling me islamophobic because I’m not a fan of Hamas or “Islamic Dschihad” is as intelligent as calling someone antisemitic because they criticize the Israel government…
An easy PR win is letting the trucks in.
Letting opposing, famous people (who would of course also take and share pictures from the war reality) enter the war zone without anyone getting hurt or killed by anyone else (with Israel military, Hamas and Islamic Dschihad involved) is probably the most complicated PR win ever…
Apart from that, it of course lets the question come up “Why is Greta allowed to enter, but not actual help organizations?”. And it seems that they don’t want such a precedent, because otherwise, they could easily allow the trucks to pass.
An easy PR win by letting them enter a war zone? You can only lose by doing that. For an easy PR win, they could just let the trucks enter Gaza.
I give it a 30% chance that Israel military kills them and blames Hamas, a 60% chance that Hamas kills them and blames it on Israel… And a 10% chance of surviving…
Sure, but if neighbour cities use the average and you want to compare yourself with them…
The Schwarz family is so damn rich… Their city calculates everything once with them and once without, because they make every “on average” statistic useless.
You can disable auto-upload. I collect 50 or 100 tasks and upload them at once. So, it’s at least not possible to know where I currently am, just where I was a few days or weeks ago.
I kind of completed tasks in a larger area. But which city I’m living in is kind of obvious if you look at my OSM account.
