The Hamas Response to Trump’s Gaza “Ceasefire” Proposal
Palestinian negotiators from Hamas have proposed a handful of amendments to a U.S.-promoted framework for a 60-day Gaza ceasefire agreement. According to a response that Hamas submitted to the U.S. and Israel and regional mediators from Qatar and Egypt, the Islamic resistance movement hopes the potential agreement will lead to an end to Israel’s genocidal war against Gaza that has lasted for 22 months. Obtained by Drop Site, the document is dated from July 4, when Hamas submitted its formal response to what President Donald Trump called the “final proposal.”
In its revisions to the Trump-backed draft, Hamas proposed stronger language in the framework to ensure that the initial 60-day truce be extended indefinitely—under a U.S. guarantee—until an agreement is reached on definitively ending Israel’s war against Gaza. It also wants Egypt and Qatar listed not only as mediators, but as guarantors of the agreement along with the U.S. “The mediators-guarantors guarantee the continuation of serious negotiations [on a permanent ceasefire] for an extended period until the two parties reach agreement, and the continuation of the [ceasefire and flow of aid] agreed upon in this framework,” Hamas’s draft asserted.
The original language contained more vague language and clauses, such as “if necessary,” and only placed the role of ensuring that negotiations continue on Egypt and Qatar, not the U.S. Hamas’s terms would make clear that the U.S. is responsible for Israel holding its fire during the 60-day initial truce and during subsequent negotiations for a long-term ceasefire.

Tony Blair Institute linked to Gaza plan condemned as ethnic cleansing: Report
The Tony Blair Institute (TBI) has been linked to a project widely condemned for proposing the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, involving a sweeping postwar redevelopment of the besieged Strip.
Although TBI insists it neither endorsed nor authored the slide, two of its staff members participated in discussions related to the initiative.
The Tony Blair Institute was founded by the former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair in 2016 to allegedly promote global policy reform and combat extremism.
Plans include a "Trump Riviera" and infrastructure named after wealthy Gulf monarchs, according to documents reviewed by the Financial Times (FT) and revealed on Sunday.

What is the supposed workflow for vanilla Gnome for keyboard users?
Question is in the title: What is the supposed workflow for vanilla Gnome for keyboard users?
Is there any video/design documents which explain, how the workflow is supposed to be?
Assume, I have a full screen web browser on workspace 1. Now I want to have a terminal... I hit the super-key, type terminal, hit enter ... and then I have a terminal which does not start maximized on workspace 1, so I can either maximize the terminal and switch between the applications, arrange them side by side... or I can navigate to workspace 2, start the terminal there (the terminal will not start maximized again on an empty workspace 2) ... and switch between the two workspaces (AFAIK there are no hotkeys specified by default to navigate directly to a workspace)...
What I simply do not understand: Does the vanilla Gnome workflow expect you to use mouse and keyboard? Like hit super, use mouse to go to next workspace, type terminal, click to maximize terminal (or use super-up)?
It just seems like a lot of work/clicks/keys to achieve something simple. And to my understanding Gnome expects you to use basically every application with a full screen window anyway, so why does it not open a new application on the next free workspace full screen by default?
Keyboard -> Keyboard shortcuts from Settings will show all the available keyboard shortcuts. You can also create your own custom keybindings
These seem like a lot of personal design complaints rather than actual issues with GNOME itself.
And to my understanding Gnome expects you to use basically every application with a full screen window anyway
You misunderstood, that's not what GNOME expects at all. Your app not maximizing on startup is because the app doesn't maximize on startup. GNOME doesn't have a setting to maximize all apps by default since that should be the app's responsibility.
If you want the auto-tiling window manager experience, you'll need to install an extension (Paperwm, tiling shell, Forge, Pop shell). Extensions are like applications, there's no shame in using them.

Bill in US Congress would give Israel access to B‑2 stealth bombers
U.S. Congress members from both sides of the aisle have introduced a bill in the House of Representatives that would grant President Donald Trump the authority to allow Israel access to B‑2 stealth bombers and bunker‑busting bombs if it becomes clear that Iran is continuing to develop nuclear weapons.
According to the proposed legislation—currently awaiting approval—this would enable unprecedented operational cooperation, including deployment, equipment and training, but without transferring permanent ownership or direct control to Israel.
Bill in US Congress would give Israel access to B‑2 stealth bombers
Under bill submitted to the US House of Representatives, Trump would be allowed to authorize Israel to use B-2 bombers and bunker-busting bombs if it is determined that Iran continues to develop nuclear weaponsDaniel Edelson, New York (ynetnews)
I imagine this so Israel can continue attacking Iran and the US can distance themselves from the political fallout, while still reaping the 'benefit' of Iran's military capabilities being damaged.
Gotta wonder when Russia and China will decide to be more open in this new cold war and hand larger weapons to Iran.
Russia seems to be actively colluding with Israel as it refuses to sell any anti-air defense systems and fighter jets to Iran. Whereas Russia is happily selling to India and Turkey.
Not sure what is happening with China. The Iranian defense minister went to China after their war with Israel was over

Hebron locals denounce sheikhs' plan to declare independence and recognise Israel
Palestinian residents of the occupied West Bank city of Hebron have disavowed a proposal by five purported local "sheikhs" to sever ties with the Palestinian Authority (PA) and establish an "emirate of Hebron" which would recognise the state of Israel.
Hebron-based activist and journalist Issa Amro said that the proposal and its authors are "complete fabrications". "The so-called 'Hebron sheikhs' in this WSJ piece are complete fabrications - anonymous figures with zero political presence, social standing, family ties and community recognition," he told Middle East Eye.
"No media, no clans, no Palestinian factions acknowledge them because they simply don't exist as consequential actors. This isn't journalism - it's inventing Palestinian 'leaders' to fit an artificial narrative while real Hebronites endure occupation," he added.

At least 64 people were killed and dozens injured in Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, according to medical sources. Eight Palestinians, including five children, were killed and 18 others injured in a strike on the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Al-Awda Hospital said in a statement.
Three more people were killed and several others injured in another strike targeting the Al-Sultan water desalination plant in the Al-Rimal neighborhood of Gaza City. Israeli fighter jets also hit a café in Al-Zawaida town in central Gaza, leaving six people dead, medics said.

Ibiza’s ambulance service risks collapse due to callouts to clubs, says union
The ambulance service on the Spanish island of Ibiza says it is at risk of collapse because of frequent callouts to attend to clubbers having bad experiences with recreational drugs.
The local ambulance union says up to a third of emergency calls are to clubs, the largest of which has a capacity of as many as 10,000 partygoers, and are largely drug-related. It is calling on club owners to contract private ambulance services.
“It’s inconceivable that businesses with an income of millions of euros a year can’t provide this service which is saturating the emergency services at the expense of the local population,” the president of the local health services union, José Manuel Maroto, told elDiario.es.

Israel's war on Gaza has exposed 'deep divide' within Brics, experts say
As one of the core members of Brics, Delhi has been foundational to the development of the collective.
It has also leveraged its decade-old position in the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) and now Brics, as well as its proximity to western powers through its growing economy, to stake a claim as a leader of the Global South and an interlocutor with the West.
But under Modi, India has increasingly moved closer to the US, with observers noting that Delhi has sought to clarify that it sees Brics as an economic rather than a geopolitical project.
Delhi has also been seen as insistent on both slowing the expansion of Brics as a means to halt Chinese influence over new members already within its sphere of influence and, therefore, temper what is being interpreted as a group geared to take on western hegemony.
Whereas there has been significant talk of Brics launching its own currency to replace the US dollar, India has shown it has no interest in doing so, opting instead to champion trade among Brics members via their national currencies.
India has also sent weapons to Israel for its war on Gaza, including combat drones and AI weapons, construction workers to replace Palestinian workers, and has refused to endorse an arms embargo on Israel.
Delhi's role has even prompted some observers to advise Washington to consider the Brics as a partner instead of an adversary.
"For some countries, notably South Africa, Brics is also seen as a critical foreign policy component in advancing its ‘South-South’ agenda, which aims to develop deeper bilateral relations with countries from the Global South based on common values and shared historical experiences," Singh adds.
But Singh acknowledges that this agenda has struggled to take shape, by his estimate, because of the inclusion of new initiatives that have detracted from what he describes as the core effort of refining a common agenda towards tackling the international governance system and international financial institutions.

Anyone have the experience registering a domain name with false personal information?

Anyone have the experience registering a domain name with false personal information?
I'm trying to register one but all provider asks for name and address. Anyone have the experience providing false information? Do they really care enough to check your info manually if you don't use your domain name for malicious purposes?
particularly interested in experiences with cloudflare
thanks a lot
EDIT:
reddit.com/r/Domains/comments/…
The issue with using fake details is that you risk getting your account suspended. Also, if your domain gets stolen you've made it impossible to retrieve because you will have to verify your information.
How can a domain get stolen?
Usually, the company you bought the domain from sends a e-mail once a year to ask you to verify the WHOIS information is correct.
It doesn't go any further than that if your just hosting nextcloud, a DNS, a blog.
If the website is used to break the law, then that email is contacted, if the email is non respondant, the email provider is asked for IP adress at the time of the last connection, if ISP: you get contacted, if VPN provider: IP at plan subscription or last connection etc. until they can reach an ISP. Then you get contacted.
What are your summer league overreactions/thoughts?
Summer league is still getting started and I'm curious what y'all are thinking so far.
I haven't watched every game but I have some thoughts myself. I thought Tim Connelly was crazy for drafting another French center but I understand it now, Joan getting 7 blocks in his first game has convinced me that he can replace (and possibly exceed) Gobert in the future. Dilly, TSJ, and Clark were exciting too, the wolves' young core is looking nice especially on defense.
I had higher hopes for pistons' 2nd round pic Chaz Lanier, I'm hoping he gets some better catch-and-shoot looks going forward but those aren't as common in summer league. Ron Holland on the other hand might as well have been LebRon Holland. 28pts 11reb 3stl 4/5 3pt is impressive, especially the improved shooting, I hope it's not a fluke.
Speaking of fluke, all eyes have been on Cooper Flagg and Bronny James. We'll see in a couple hours if Coop can have a better game today, 5/21 from the field is rough though. Bronny was playing lockdown defense too which seems to be his new identity, we'll see if he can keep this up, he could be a rotational player going forward.
Anyways would love to hear what other people are thinking and feeling so far!

in reply to paequ2 • • •I've not used Guix but I don't think any distro has anything close to number of desirable available packages as arch--- so be prepared for that. My ventures into debian, suse and fedora were made quite annoying by having to work around the many missing packages. Including user-facing applications, dependencies and background programs. I never quite got down with distrobox, maybe that's the cure.
this chart on wikipedia gives the impression that Debian has more packages but that's not the way it feels when you are looking for something. Maybe they have a lot of dot matrix printer libraries from 1992 or something which bring the number up.
Arch includes a lot of not-at-all-free packages (which it is impossible to distinguish in pacman or other tool as far as I can find), orphaned, new packages that haven't yet made it into other repos, and packages where no attempt has been made to submit them to other repos.
On arch I have virtually never had to go outside the repos for packages. It's very hard to give up once you are used to it. (Even though it's better to use properly libre/free stuff and other benefits of a more curated approach like security, stability and quality.)

– Hardware must be well supported in fully-libre-land - I was trying to install on a Mac Mini and had to go nonguix pretty much right away. That kind of spoiled the whole effort.
– Profound meditation and enlightenment on the essence of Scheme is a must. I had one of those 'no, this is where you don't want a closing brace' moments and my zen was blown out of the water.
I would have soldiered on, but personally I like Arch first and foremost because I can (and do) have a local repo by rsyncing a rotation of mirrors couple of times a week. Just in case the Internet dies one day, you know. I realised Guix was not really suitable for the apocalypse use case, so after that brace episode I decided to stick with what my spine already knows.
After all that is said – I really hope you fare better 😁

But when I do I for sure will start out from nonguix because I'm quite confident that my hardware won't be supported (I even have a recently purchased Wifi 7 card that relies on
ath12kmodule that I'm quite sure won't be in the official Guix repo.. maybe I'd even need to compile it myself..)I see in the nonguix readme that there's a way to generate an iso that includes already a nonguix kernel, so I'll have a look at that.
It even looks like you can create a writeable image to run from a USB thumbdrive, which looks very interesting, I gotta try that!
I've been burnt by Arch before which is what has got me into exploring other distros. I might ultimately end up again in Arch like you, who knows, but it looks like the way Guix works is well suited for hosting your own repo too.. I think I've seen before someone hosting their own Guix repo in github, including also a bunch of configuration for their system, which got me curious.

guix install distrobox. If you installdistroboxfirst, you don't end up using rootless podman and you run into more problems that way. (You have to usedistrobox --root.)After that command, everything should work like normal. Enjoy. 🍻
