#Palestine / IDF have lied, again, about shootings near the “aid site” in Rafah
Testimonies, video footage, and inconsistencies in official statements indicate that Israeli soldiers, rather than #Palestinian militants, were responsible for the lethal shootings near the so-called “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation” (#GHF) death trap which is the “aid distribution center” in #Rafah.
These shootings, which resulted in dozens of deaths, occurred approximately a kilometer from the aid center, where Israeli drones and armored vehicles were present. Eyewitness accounts describe gunfire from multiple directions, including tanks and drones, targeting civilians seeking aid. Medical teams reported treating numerous gunshot victims.
The #IDF initially denied involvement but later admitted to firing "warning shots." They also chose, uncharacteristically, not to respond to this special report in #Haaretz.

Check it Ventoy, it's become a handy tool for me. Lets you have several bootable ISOs or images on a single USB.

in reply to JustOneMoreCat • • •I've tried quite a few but right now the longest surviving one is Manjaro. This system still dual boots (technically a actually triple boot lol), so you can fix the issue.
I also have Fedora on another pc and I don't care for it. I also have dabbled very lightly with Debian (hosting some services), Kubuntu, Ubuntu, Endeavour, Cachy, Mint, KDE Neon, and PopOS.
I have liked the Arch based distros the most so far, and highly prefer KDE Plasma as a desktop environment.

in reply to iAmTheTot • • •Just to add a note for OP: If your not into tinkering and taking care a of your OS don't even think to try any Arch based distro. There's a minimum time you have to spend to keep your system healthy.
Just recentlty I had a boot issue after an update (black screen on boot without login or tty) and after a lot of debugging and websearch couldn't fix my issue. At first I though of a fuckedup bootloader or to long wait time between updates but It was a recent issue with MESA and nvidia driver.
Had I looked up the EndeavourOS forum rather then my own search results that would have avoided a fuckedup fresh install wich didn't solved the issue either.
So yeah, there was a solution out there (downgrade MESA, install new nvidia driver rather than nouveau) but I wasn't looking in the right place 🫤 So here I'm with a fresh install...

in reply to JustOneMoreCat • • •Not the one you're asking but I've been dual-booting Windows and Linux on my gaming desktop for many years, every time a build a new PC, disabling "secure boot" AND "fast boot" in the BIOS is the very first thing I do and I never had problems (I play on Linux but I keep Windows for testing in case I want to report a bug).
Fast boot is even more troublesome, since it's a Windows specific feature that allows it to not truly shutdown so it can startup faster later, but that can cause locks for other OS that won't work correctly.
In theory, Linux should be able to support secure boot (not fast boot), but since that one too was made for Windows, there are cases in which it could cause problems, I will always disable it just to be on the safe side.

in reply to JustOneMoreCat • • •Exactly what happened.
Microsoft is deliberately making it crazy hard to use linux. We're so used to dealing with hostile relationships recently that we dont even recognize this broken situation.
Anyway, can you try installing it on separate ssd? Its rather hard to run it in dual boot because windows will frequently fuck up your bootloader and so on.
Btw bitlocker is the encryption.

in reply to haui • • •I had a bad feeling that dual booting wouldn't be the seamless thing I hoped for. I have an old Mac laptop I might try installing on to see how I like it and decide if I'm just gonna wipe Windows entirely.
It's incredible how shit Windows is and everyone just accepts it. It shows me ads on my lock screen FFS (and I know how to disable that cuz I've done it three times now and they keep coming back like a horror movie monster you didn't behead).

in reply to JustOneMoreCat • • •Unfortunately, the windows bootloader issues are also ingrained in UEFI for many motherboards. Every few days I start my PC up and it has decided my grub entry is garbage and does me the favor of removing it and defaulting back to the windows bootloader.
I've worked around this by adding a bootcfg entry to the windows bootloader that points at grub. Now any time this happens, I pick the grub entry from the windows bootloader, my PC reboots, and now it'll keep defaulting to grub again until the next time it decides to wipe it.

Edit: oh, I also definitely used
bcdedit /copyto clone the windows entry, and then edited the clone.[Fixed] No Grub Screen in Dual Boot, System Boots in Windows
