					<description><![CDATA[The ICC &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/icc-unveils-arrest-warrants-israeli-leaders-historic-first-crimes-against-humanity&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;issued an arrest warrent against Bibi for war crimes and crimes against humanity&lt;/a&gt;. I guess they also issued one against the leaders of Hamas.

&lt;blockquote&gt;On the basis of evidence collected and examined by my Office, I have reasonable grounds to believe that Benjamin NETANYAHU, the Prime Minister of Israel, and Yoav GALLANT, the Minister of Defence of Israel, bear criminal responsibility for  the following war crimes and crimes against humanity committed on the territory of the State of Palestine (in the Gaza strip) from at least 8 October 2023:

Starvation of civilians as a method of warfare as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(b)(xxv) of the Statute;
Wilfully causing great suffering, or serious injury to body or health contrary to article 8(2)(a)(iii), or cruel treatment as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(c)(i);
Wilful killing contrary to article 8(2)(a)(i), or Murder as a war crime contrary to article 8(2)(c)(i);
Intentionally directing attacks against a civilian population as a war crime contrary to articles 8(2)(b)(i), or 8(2)(e)(i);
Extermination and/or murder contrary to articles 7(1)(b) and 7(1)(a), including in the context of deaths caused by starvation, as a crime against humanity;
Persecution as a crime against humanity contrary to article 7(1)(h);
Other inhumane acts as crimes against humanity contrary to article 7(1)(k).&lt;/blockquote&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;a href=&quot;https://karmismusingstech.com/index.php/2024/05/20/media-library-digitizing-your-dvds-blu-rays-part-2/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;Part 2&lt;/a&gt; of my ‘&lt;i&gt;Media Library – Digitizing your DVDs &#038; Blu-rays&lt;/i&gt;’ series is up. Ain’t posting it here since it has lots of links in it, and Part 1 ended up in the spam folder last time.

Am a novice at this digitizing a Media Library, so my method is for those with low budgets and no experience either. :) Costs so far are $189.63 including tax and free shipping – most of that cost was from a Seagate FireCuda ST4000DX005 4TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5 Internal HDD Bare Drive purchased last night. Have also purchased an external Blu-ray burner and EaseFab LosslessCopy software. I already had some of the devices &#038; hardware, which cut down on my expense so far. Still, probably less than $250 for a basic setup. 

Commenter huxley gave me a tip on the free &lt;b&gt;HandBrake&lt;/b&gt; reducing software, and it has been amazing. A 7++ GB MP4 movie’s digital footprint was reduced down to about 1.5 GBs or so (?). A 15++ GB series disc was reduced down to about 2.5 GBs – which comes in handy when trying to save money on the big TBs drives. The additional 15-20 mins to reduce the size of a MP4 is worth the time.

Speaking of time – have 50 of those double/triple movie series, 47 Blu-ray movies, 148 DVD movies, and 34 TV series (&lt;i&gt;like Game of Thrones, Hell on Wheels, Sopranos, etc&lt;/i&gt;) that I plan on digitizing – plus whatever new stuff I buy. Well, I rarely buy new movies or TV series, with Yellowstone being one of the exceptions. Time reduces the prices of DVDs &#038; Blu-rays.]]></description>
