Looking for some troubleshooting help, if possible.

Attempting to install Arch using the linux-zen kernel. Planning to encrypt root using dm-crypt.

Early on, after running

parted /dev/vda --script mklabel gpt

parted -a optimal /dev/vda --script mkpart "ptn-boot" fat32 2048s 1024MiB

parted -a optimal /dev/vda --script mkpart "ptn-root" btrfs 1024MiB 100%

on the disk.

i then enter

modprobe dm-crypt

modprobe dm-mod

I've done this procedure a lot of times before, but I think I'm missing something, bc when I run modprobe dm-crypt, i get

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dm_crypt': Invalid argument

I don't get an error with modprobe dm-mod.

In /lib/modules/7.1.3-zen1-2-zen/kernel/drivers/md/, i have dm-crypt.ko.zst and dm-mod.ko.zst.

Many Western economists and media outlets claim that Americans are wealthier than Europeans, but this is not true; it's based on a misunderstanding of the difference between average wealth and median wealth. Ben Norton explains how the extreme inequality in the US make its average wealth misleadingly look high, and why GDP per capita is not a good measurement. He debunks the myth of "Europoors", which is often spread by Donald Trump supporters.

She also referred his attorney for possible professional discipline.

The fund was the result of an unprecedented deal that Trump made with himself after he dropped his $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service for the unlawful leak of his tax returns in 2019. The honey pot payments were pitched as reparations, paid for by U.S. taxpayers through the Department of Justice, to virtually any right-winger that felt targeted by the previous presidential administration.

“The nature of the suit itself and the conduct of the Parties and counsel from its filing make plain that this was an attempt to use the Court to provide some legitimacy to an agreement to confer immunity to people and entities affiliated with the President and to earmark billions of dollars from American taxpayers to redress grievances not defined in the law,” wrote U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams in a 56-page order Monday.

Williams ruled that any entities affiliated with the slush fund settlement—including the president, the Treasury Department, and the IRS—were “prohibited” from using the details of the arrangement in any official capacity. She also referred Trump’s attorney, Alejandro Brito, to the Florida bar for possible professional discipline.

She noted that while Trump had the right to pursue legal action over the unauthorized publication of his tax returns, he chose not to do so while he was still a private citizen. Instead, Trump did not bring the charges until he had returned to the White House and subsequently appointed his former lawyer, Todd Blanche, atop the Justice Department.

My partners cat is so good at sitting still for a picture. I wish the others would sit so well.

• Rules would favour EU companies in strategic sectors
• Could reject bids with less than 50% EU content
• Proposal is expected to be published in September

...

Public procurement accounts for around 15% of the EU's GDP, according to the draft proposal, ​equating to about €2.5 trillion ($2.86 trillion) based on the EU's 2025 GDP.

...

The proposal increases the security role of public procurement in that it allows authorities to examine whether a bidder's ownership, control or financing structure creates a risk of foreign interference.

Buyers could also take into ​account whether companies are subject ​to third-country laws that ⁠may force disclosure of sensitive information or otherwise interfere with the contract's performance.

...

Authorities would be encouraged, and in some cases required, to take account of risks linked to critical infrastructure, cybersecurity, supply-chain disruptions, strategic ⁠dependencies and ​foreign influence when awarding contracts.

just kidding, I don't want to know.

Wisconsin Democratic candidate for governor Sara Rodriguez said Monday that she discovered her campaign has hundreds of thousands dollars less cash than she thought after campaign ads slated to run last week did not air because of unpaid invoices.

Rodriguez, the current lieutenant governor, announced late Sunday night that she had fired her campaign manager just a month before the Aug. 11 primary after discovering contributions had been double counted and expenses were undercounted, leading to her campaign having far less money than she thought.

Rodriguez, at a news conference surrounded by supporters, vowed to remain in the race.

“This campaign is going to move forward,” she said in the appearance at her campaign headquarters.

Rodriguez is in a competitive primary for Wisconsin’s open governor’s race against democratic socialist Francesca Hong, former Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes and three others. The winner of the primary will advance to the general election against Republican Rep. Tom Tiffany, who faces only token primary opposition.

Last week Rodriguez announced a $1 million television ad campaign buy. But when the ads didn’t start running as she expected, Rodriguez said she began asking questions and discovered the problems in the campaign reports.

“I am hurt, angry and deeply disappointed by someone I trusted to run my campaign,” Rodriguez said of her fired campaign manager, Kara Spencer. “I was continually getting inaccurate reports from my campaign manager.”

Spencer did not return a message seeking comment.
