Menachem Begin: Our race is the Master Race. We Jews are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

I compiled it a few months ago and was fairly impressed. I really hope we see another major browser engine rise in the same way Firefox/Gecko did in the early to mid-2000s, before Mozilla sacrificed all their values and destroyed their userbase.
Edit: I was able to recover my partitions by creating new partition starting and ending from same exact sectors.
I was copying files from my previous installation to my new Gentoo installation. After I was done. I ran wipefs on /dev/nvme0n1 thinking it is my old nvme drive which is connected through usb. I am in disbelief. Lost all of my configuration files. My perfect installation of gentoo. Just gone. How do I never make such mistake again? Thankfully I had backup of passwords file. Rest is gone. I am sad.
I have nothing to offer but some sympathy and one advice: I have two critical backups running: my personal files and the various folders containing my config files.
As I learned more or less the exact same way you just did how critical it is to backup those files too as, losing them by formatting my drive, I instantly realized they're as personal as my 'real' files are.
I've recovered my boot partition but my other partition was formatted with luks. The boot partition is working and not throwing any errors. How can I restore the luksheader? Is it even possible?
Guys, I managed to recover my partitions. I used test disk to write the detected efi partition which was of 500MiB. The gpt partition table backup uses 33 sectors to I created second partition starting from where the previous ended to totalsectors-33. I was able to luksDump the header after this and successfully decrypt and mount my device. I had to grub-install and now my system is up and running. Thank you so much everyone for their help and their kind words.

Hamas Executes Several Ambushes, Mounting Zionist Casualties
The al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced on Thursday that its Resistance fighters had targeted a Zionist engineering unit consisting of 12 soldiers as they were preparing to carry out a demolition operation inside a house near the Fida’i Junction in the al-Tannour neighborhood, east of Rafah city in southern Gaza.
The Brigades stated that its fighters struck the unit with two anti-personnel and anti-armor shells, leading to the explosion of the house and causing casualties among the occupation force, with soldiers either killed or wounded.
It added that following the attack, helicopters were observed landing to evacuate the dead and wounded.
The group also reported that its fighters engaged in fierce, point-blank-range combat with Zionist soldiers and military vehicles in the al-Jeneina neighborhood, also in eastern Rafah.
Evacuations in Rafah and media blackout
In a second operation, as part of the Gates of Hell ambushes, al-Qassam fighters successfully targeted an infantry a Zionist unit of seven soldiers with a powerful explosive device near the Omar Ibn Abdulaziz Mosque in the a-Tannour neighborhood.
The group confirmed that its fighters saw body parts of several soldiers scattered at the site.
Following the operations, Zionist military censorship swiftly imposed a blackout on a security event in Gaza involving the collapse of a building and numerous casualties.
Occupation media had earlier reported a “serious security incident” in Rafah in which a building collapsed on Zionist soldiers, causing multiple injuries, some of them described as critical. The wounded were transferred to Barzilai Medical Center in Askalan.
The media indicated that the occupation was facing difficulties evacuating the dead and wounded from the Rafah site due to the intensity of the fighting, as helicopters conducted fire cover operations to secure the evacuation.
The Hadshot B’zman outlet published footage showing wounded soldiers arriving at hospitals following what it described as a “very serious security incident,” the details of which remain under censorship.
The report added, “Hamas has cameras and explosive devices awaiting the army’s forces in Gaza.”
‘Hannibal Directive’ reportedly activated by occupation
Zionist media described the day as “difficult for ‘Israeli; forces in the Gaza Strip,” particularly as the Rafah incident coincided with another event in Gaza City’s al-Shujaiya neighborhood.
Reports indicated an attempt by the Palestinian Resistance to abduct a wounded soldier through a tunnel opening inside the collapsed building in al-Shujaiya, amid a tight media blackout.
Zionist media also reported the activation of the so-called “Hannibal Directive” in both al-Shujaiya and Rafah, a Zionist military protocol aimed at preventing the capture of soldiers, even if it means striking their own positions.
In this context, the Zionist military began firing on its own forces amid fears that troops caught in the ambush east of Rafah could be taken captive by the Resistance.
Second fatal strike targets armored vehicle hours later
Roughly two hours after the first operation, an explosive device struck an armored personnel carrier operating in the same area of Rafah. The blast resulted in the death of Staff Sgt. Frid and wounded four additional soldiers, three of whom were listed in serious condition by occupation medical teams.
The twin incidents highlight the growing intensity of confrontations in southern Gaza, particularly in Rafah, where occupation forces continue ground and air assaults while facing mounting resistance from Palestinian fighters.
Al-Qassam launches ‘Gates of Hell’ operations across Rafah
On Wednesday, the al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, claimed responsibility for several high-impact attacks on Zionist occupation forces. Al-Qassam confirmed that Resistance fighters had targeted a fortified Zionist unit inside a house near the al-Mashrou junction, east of Rafah, using two TBG rockets. The fighters then stormed the site and eliminated the remaining soldiers with light weapons at close range.
The operations are part of al-Qassam’s “Gates of Hell” campaign, which has also extended into Khan Younis.
In a second operation in the same area, al-Qassam Resistance fighters lured a Zionist infantry patrol into a pre-set ambush. The patrol, consisting of ten soldiers and two military dogs, was trapped in a zone rigged with multiple explosive devices. As soon as the soldiers entered, the explosives were detonated, causing fatalities and injuries, which prompted the deployment of helicopters for evacuation, a move closely monitored by the fighters.
Escalating attacks
Two soldiers of the occupation were killed and at least six others wounded in separate attacks during ongoing military raids in the southern Gaza Strip, according to an official statement from the occupation military.
The incidents unfolded in the Jenina neighborhood of Rafah, where confrontations remain fierce between the occupation and Palestinian Resistance groups.
The two soldiers were identified as Sgt. Yishai Elyakim Urbach, 20, of the Combat Engineering Corps’ 605th Battalion, from Zikhron Ya’akov, and Staff Sgt. Yam Frid, 21, of the Golani Brigade’s reconnaissance unit, from Sal’it.
According to an initial military investigation, Hamas fighters fired a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) at a building housing occupation troops, causing part of the structure to collapse. The blast killed Sgt. Urbach and wounded two others, one seriously and the other moderately.
It's prettier than a TTY and you can pick whether you want a Wayland or an X11 session without having to know the correct startup commands. You can pick between different desktops too. And a Display Manager can offer on-screen keyboard and touchscreen support while a TTY can't (at least GDM does, I'm not sure about SDDM off the top of my head).
Aside from that whatever command you are using in the TTY to launch Plasma might or might not be the same commands SDDM uses, which might or might not lead to issues in setting up the environment. If your environment is fine and you don't care about having to use a physical keyboard then of course you can remove it. It's not exactly load bearing.
Most people expect a GUI interface to get into their desktop. But you dont have to use one if you dont want. SDDM can log into any desktops you have - KDE but also Gnome or XFCE etc. It can also help select X11 vs Wayland sessions.
There are alternatives like LightDM if you dont like SDDM. Or TTY is fine too. But generally they're not large pieces of software and while they are undoubtedly bloated from what they could be, they are still small and lightweight in the era of Tbs of storage and Gb of memory. The savings you'd get in not using them would be small on the scale of the rest of the OS. Obviously they're useless for none GUI machines / servers.
They're called display managers because historically the concept was added to X11 system where you'd have a stand alone X terminal running locally for the end user with an X server which would then connect to an X display manager on a central machine. This was in shared spaces like governments, universities or corporations and the set up was potentially less hardware intensive allowing cheaper X terminals and an expensive central server.
The concept has gone now (PCs are vastly more poweful and can easily run the OS locally, and thin clients are the modern set up if you do want terminals/clients and central servers). The most common scenario is now the display manager runing on your local PC, alongside everything else and essentially replicates the TTY login in a GUI form. So yes its basically a session manager but the name is historical and probably won't be going anywhere fast.
It's interesting because instead of "display manager" it should be "graphical login manager", and the current "login manager" should be called "session manager". I don't know the origin of the name, though.
The term Display Manager is a vestige of the use of X11.
X11 is a Server/Client protocol.
When a user logs in to an XServer, they are given an Xsession. The user can use that Xsession to create one or more X11 Displays (they are just IDs). The X11 Display ID is passed to the X11 client application (that's what the XDISPLAY environment variable is for) The client apps render their content to that Display ID. This whole thing allows for more than one user to be able to use a single operating system on a single XServer at the same time.
All of that is pretty cumbersome for a user to do themselves in their terminal, that's what Display Managers are for. They:
Start the XServer if it isn't started yet
Provide a method (eg, login with username and password), to start a new XSession.
Use that XSession to create an empty X11 Display.
Look up which is your configured default DE or WM
Launch the DE or WM with the right parameters, passing it the new XSession and XDisplay
If you're using Wayland, then the architecture is very different. The Display Manager then simply operates as a login screen.
On-screen keyboard was already mentioned, but there are some other small things that might be useful for some:
Reboot/shutdown without having to login (Your husband/wife/partner can shutdown your computer without first having to login and be greeted by the porn folder on your desktop...nah seriously, this can be useful at times when your turn on the computer, get called away and someone else can easily shut down the computer after you didn't return for some hours)
Keyboard language selection before password entry. Very useful in multi-language households/companies.
The WM selection also allows kiosk-like behaviour in special cases...like you don't start a WM but start in kodi media player for a movie evening or you create your own WM session file for a single game that runs as soon as you login.
I don't know whether it's me or my hardware, but display managers seem to absolutely hate me. I've tried quite a few, and I've always encountered some sort of issue within a few days. Even on distros that install and set them up automatically for me.
Since I'm the only user of my computers, I've set mine up to log me in and startx (well, now the Wayland equivalent) automatically, bypassing DMs altogether. If I decide to experiment with other window managers/desktop environments, I just change the line in my bashrc.

This weekend, 800 yen is on the line for After Midnight Games as we try out a Linux-native indie RPG. It's cheap-as-free on Steam, but if we're impressed enough after 4 hours of playtime they'll earn a sale of the Supporter Pack.
"Let's Try: God's Disdain" is this Saturday May 10th, only on PeerTube
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

F-4E, the Phantom version equipped with an internal gun entered service just too late to participate in the early phase of the Vietnam War known as Operation Rolling Thunder. But it was very heavily involved in the fighting in 1972 during operations Linebecker I and II. It achieved a good number of aerial victories, including some with its M61 cannon but one achieved by Major Phil 'Hands' Handley of the 58th TFS was very special.

Acer netbook fan been making noises for a while. If I press on the case it settles down but let go and it sounds like an angry bumblebee. It keeps getting harder to make it settle down. I think the fan is slipping on its axle. Little dab of epoxy might help, but how to get it in?
