It's a stupid gimmick - just like air drops. If the US wanted it could go and open the border crossings for aid. Hundreds of lorries a day are required. Not doing that reveals the truth - starving mainly innocent Palestinians.

Let's not forget BoJos method of avoiding scrutiny of Brexit. There's more than one way to avoid either having or not having an election! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_British_prorogation_controversy and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prorogation_in_the_United_Kingdom

Isn't the issue that in the gulf these drones are being targeted by missiles that are more like $1M each? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flakpanzer_Gepard are not mounted on ships afaik although I expect there are similar solutions. Update: it seems electronic warfare (lasers, microwave, GPS suppression) are favoured as they don't run out of ammo. Against a drone swarm attack mixed with anti ship missiles the ballistics are reserved for taking out the ship killers. Striking the threat at source is even better which the US and UK are doing now. https://www.reddit.com/r/WarCollege/comments/17dgocl/how_should_warships_deal_with_the_issue_of_being/

If only Trump had thought to stuff the US Supreme Court with his supporters before his last term ended. DOH!

The encryption key is stored in the luks header on the disk and the phrase or key to open the encryption key can be entered at boot or after via the keyboard or from a file (usually a usb drive). So long as the luks header and encrypted data are not damaged and so long as you have the phrase or key that opens the encryption key it should survive the move. Take a dd backup of the disk just in case.

He's more likely to re-re-re-re announce carbon capture & storage again in Scotland. And no it never happened all the other times the Tories announced it either. And if the Tories can get away with pumping human waste into the rivers & sea and carbon dioxide into repurposed under sea wells I'm sure they will also find a way to dump nuclear waste there too. Nothing to worry about, the planet will be dead long before the concrete encased waste breaks down. But at least they can live out their comfortable lives at the expense of working people. Vote Tory? Never.

GUI what's that? SSH. But seriously, still SSH. You can tunnel anything you like over SSH, including X. Just use the -Y flag and any X capable client you start will display on your local server.
