Donald Trump ordered Israel to “immediately” stop bombing Gaza as he welcomed Hamas’s partial acceptance of his ultimatum to end the nearly two-year war.Hamas has agreed to release all hostages in return for Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails, as well as surrender governing power in the Gaza Strip, in accordance with Trump’s plan.
In a statement on Friday evening, the Palestinian militant group asked for further negotiations on other parts of the plan, and did not say whether it would lay down its arms – a key part of Trump’s proposal unveiled on Monday.
Despite the qualified response by Hamas, Trump said in a post on Truth Social: “Based on the Statement just issued by Hamas, I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE."

Hamas has prisoners, it’s the propaganda that calls them hostages. If you want to call them hostages, you should call the prisoners that Israel has hostages as well.
Actually, propaganda is what you are doing.
A hostage is someone :
1. That isn't sentenced for anything.
2. That can not be precisely located anywhere.
3. That doesn't know if he will be released or killed by his captors.
For instance, Nelson Mandela wasn't a hostage. He was a political prisoner.
(A political prisoner is still a prisoner)

“Israel must immediately stop the bombing of Gaza, so that we can get the Hostages out safely and quickly! Right now, it’s far too dangerous to do that.
Meaning that as soon as the hostages are out the bombing can continue?

This serves as a litmus test for the report’s scientific credibility. A commitment to scientific integrity requires the authors to produce a point-by-point response to the expert comments, overseen by an independent review editor.A refusal to do so would suggest that the report should be viewed as an advocacy piece rather than a scientific document, and its conclusions should be treated with caution.

Kansas special session on trans law would be 'more important than redistricting'
Top Kansas Republicans want the Legislature to hold a special session to amend a state law related to transgender people, which they say is "even more important than redistricting."The move comes after the Kansas Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from Attorney General Kris Kobach related to Senate Bill 180. That 2023 law is the subject of a legal dispute over whether it blocks trans people from changing their gender marker on their driver's license.
It also comes at a time when Republicans are moving toward calling a special session on redistricting with a goal of gerrymandering the congressional district maps.

Megachurch pastor and ex-Trump (spiritual) adviser pleads guilty to child sexual abuse
cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/47246639
Cindy Clemishire, 55, the woman who publicly identified herself as the victim of Morris’s sexual abuse, was present in the courtroom as he pleaded guilty. In a prepared statement she told him: “There is no such thing as consent from a 12-year-old child. We were never in an ‘inappropriate relationship.’ I was not a ‘young lady’ but a child. You committed a crime against me.”A leaked transcript of a phone call revealed that in 2005 Morris tried to bribe Clemishire into silence, telling her to “put a price on it”.
He also became a spiritual adviser to Donald Trump. He joined the White House spiritual advisory committee during the first Trump presidency and was part of a campaign to mobilize evangelical voters for him in last year’s presidential campaign.
Trump also visited Gateway church in 2020 where he praised Morris and his senior team as “great people with a great reputation”.

Running a command only when resuming from the hibernation part of suspend-then-hibernate?
In the interest of maximizing battery life, I've set up suspend-then-hibernate on my laptop. Using a discrete window manager, so I have a systemd unit that locks the screen when I close the lid. After an hour, it automatically goes into hibernation.
All is well, until I have to boot up from hibernation. I'm prompted to unlock LUKS, then I'm hit with a redundant lock screen once resumed. I've tried setting up systemd units referencing suspend-then-hibernate.target and hibernate.target, but I can't get it to kill the screen locker when resuming from hibernation only, so I don't have to type in my password twice. Is there any way to have systemd discriminate between the suspend and hibernate parts of suspend-then-hibernate?
like this
You don't want anything like what you're attempting.
1) Bypassing either password challenge for simplicity's sake is just defeating the purpose of having LUKS on the full disk anyway. Just encrypt your home of that's a problem for you and simplify things.
2) Killing your lock screen from the session manager is going to cause all kinds of problems, so that's not going to help. It's not JUST a plain old process to kill, it's the session manager. You kill it, and it's going to ask you again anyway, and likely destroy your existing session.
Instead, look into Clevis. Pair it with your TPM, and set it to handle the lower level LUKS challenge. Learn about it to understand the tradeoffs in security, but it's going to be more secure than what you're attempting.
This is for a SeaBIOS system without functional TPM.
Bypassing either password challenge for simplicity’s sake is just defeating the purpose of having LUKS on the full disk anyway. Just encrypt your home of that’s a problem for you and simplify things.
Could you explain this? I do not see how it would compromise the security model since the lock screen would be dismissed only after the LUKS password is entered. The screenlocker is only relevant when suspended to RAM as the LUKS key is no longer in RAM once hibernated.
Killing your lock screen from the session manager is going to cause all kinds of problems, so that’s not going to help. It’s not JUST a plain old process to kill, it’s the session manager. You kill it, and it’s going to ask you again anyway, and likely destroy your existing session.
I am using slock, which is separate from my session manager (startx in ~/.profile), and in my testing, I was able to kill it without issue.
If killing your lock screen unlocks the system, that signals there is actually little protection. Killing a lock screen should kill the session and log you out, or at least render the session unusable.
If you still want to go that route, you could wrap your hibernation process in a script or use a slightly more complex service setup to kill it once, by inspecting system/service state and enqueued systemctl operations, you determine hibernation is done (not pending)
I'm focusing on the lock screen as having one single job to do well: protect the session from any access not granted exclusively through the password.
You posit this as if the attacker and the killing of the lock screen were connected: the attacker can only kill if they already have malware, so "it doesn't matter". But the point is, if the lock screen won't relinquish access upon receiving the kill signal, even if the attacker had compromised this vector, or if there were some other cause behind the lock screen dying, crashing, whatever, access would not be granted in the first place. It stops at that layer.
Thinking in terms of "if they already can access the system, whatever" is different from thinking about security in depth/layers. So its not so much about the cause of the problem, but where you can contain it. This threat (a physical access attacker) is pretty extreme, but if we are going there, then yes, it's not unfeasible to think that they could leverage this weakness to go from a possibly limited shell access to a fully unlocked physical session where you could have unrestricted access to e.g. a browser or unlocked password manager or other in-memory information.
But the two things don't really need to be connected. The lock screen having a secondary way to allow access that does not require the password is a weakness in itself, that the attacker could exploit, but that should not have been there in the first place.
Look into man 8 systemd-suspend.service
Immediately before entering system suspend and/or hibernation systemd-suspend.service (and the other mentioned units, respectively) will run all executables in /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ and pass two arguments to them. The first argument will be "pre", the second either "suspend", "hibernate", "hybrid-sleep", or "suspend-then-hibernate" depending on the chosen action.
