The article uses Midjourney. Nobody is tuning it.

Other than international outrage or intervention what would prevent Israel from occupying all of Gaza?

Having an iota of humanity In their souls.

...and that's why the person you originally replied to asked their question. General popularity is generally a bad proxy metric for personal preference.

There a lot of people who aren't scientifically minded that treat scientific knowledge just like scripture. It comes from wize people and they just trust and accept it unquestioningly.

Those who practise science know that all knowledge is to be questioned, and everything needs evidence. They also know that everything we "know" is most likely wrong. It's just the best explanation we have so far and that's a good thing.

Is it impossible to like things outside the mainstream?

I think it's more that people confuse the Israeli government with "the Jewish people", when the truth is that they are very separate. The Israeli people are somewhere in the middle. There seems to be a bunch of them who are quite supportive of their government's actions.

No, it's a melted down speed camera.

Enjoying messing around doesn't mean people aren't good. Shit posts in particular show a level of awareness, otherwise it's just a post.

Only works if you can start a cycle on power on. My machine will just sit there waiting for someone to press the go button.

I do use the timer delay to run the wash cycle when the power is cheap. I'd really like it if I could set it as "ready to go" and something else give it the "go" when the power is cheap.

Once I have that, it's also useful to have something to tell me there's wet washing that needs to be unloaded.

If my washing machine was older I could do all of this with a remote power switch and sensor, but because my washing machine has touch buttons instead of click/clacks, I can't. Turning the power on just makes it wait for a button press.

It would be far better if somebody sold a single VPN device for the mass public to be able to access home devices. Something wireguard based could be so simple for people to use. Even better if your ISP had this as a standard feature which they made easy to setup Then none of these devices would have an excuse to go out to the company's servers. Any that did would be obviously spying and they could be shamed.

Also libretube (android client to piped.video so you don't connect to YouTube at all) and clipious (android client to invidious) are worth looking at too. You'll need to tweak the servers you connect to to get good performance, but both work quite nicely.
