  • If only the situation were even that “good” for Palestine. It’s been an occupied territory by Isreal for years - long before last Oct. There already are “border fences” - Gaza has been under blockade by Isreal for at least 2 decades, restricting any movement of Palestinians. I recommend having a look at a map to see just how dire the situation is for Palestine when they have Isreal right in the middle and all around simultaneously.

    Palestine isn’t even recognized as a country by several, including - conveniently - Isreal and the US.

    So, neither of those proposed alternatives would really be a good argument to Israel I’m afraid.



















  • Any company taking 2FA seriously will either compensate you for the requirements to fulfill that security, or provide you with the devices necessary. I used to work at Duo. I currently work for another company that does more or less the same thing. Your company’s security team will do whatever it takes to get you compliant because not doing that is on them and not you.

    It’s honestly wild for a company to allow an employee to be on the verge of locked out of critical services and not be resolving that on their own. They have the metrics in duo to be able to see that you have no viable device to 2FA with.


  • EDIT: I’ve just done some quick research and it seems like stellarsan is a locally made equivalent to starsan in Australia. It’s probably so much cheaper just because it’s not an import.

    Starsan is a recognizable trusted brand. I know exactly what I’m getting when I buy starsan. I have never before heard of stellarsan and cannot vouch for how well it works. I will say that the fact they’ve specifically chosen a name that could feasibly be confused with the established brand does not bode well for their own legitimacy.

    That’s the reason for the price difference I would guess. Name recognition vs taking a gamble on some unknown brand

    If you must buy online because you don’t have a local homebrew store, I recommend only doing so through a reputable seller that specializes in brewing supplies. Amazon is not ideal, and I’m not sure if kegland can be trusted as I’ve never heard of them. Try to make connections with other brewers in your area and see where they are ordering things from. Sadly, from what I’ve heard Australia is not the easiest place to source…well, anything from lol
