Il faudrait arrêter de réduire #gitlab à gitlab.com (cloud) il y en a un paquet qui sont auto-hébergé

Working on moving more than 60 repositories from GitHub to an independent GitLab instance.

A lot of work to do. Re-building the CI chain from Travis-CI to Gitlab-CI, deprecating old repositories, Inform users by changing the README, archive the repository, rework the README on the GitLab instance, and so on.

It's a lot of work, but it's worth it.

Feel free to join, star and contribute!

To whom it may concern,

Being polite and deferential to powerful people advancing authoritarian policies doesn’t convince them to change their ways.

What's all this talking about #GeneralStrike in the #USA?

It's official, #GetTogether now supports ActivityPub!

This is my first attempt at AP/AS, so somebody please let me know if I'm doing it wrong.

tl;dr is right there in the link.

If you've ever known someone who scoffed at pre-packed or partially-prepared convenience foods, could you think about boosting this?

Iveco Defence Vehicles will be delivering an 8-wheeled sea-capable APC to the USMC.

Now that's one case of "Made in Italy" I dislike.

Zak S. writes about detractors. He quotes Toni Morrison talking about racism and how it's just greed and what to do about it; and he quotes George Saunders talking about noise drowning the signal, and what to do about it. It boils down to that: don't focus on the stuff that's abundantly clear to everybody. Keep doing the good stuff instead.

In the 1970s, a group called NARMIC supported the movement against the #Vietnam war with research such as:

- the top 100 defense contractors making the war possible;

- a slideshow showing the automated weapons systems used, and their horrific impact.

LittleSis (which maintains a power research database of its own) is profiling this important work, so that it can inform and inspire #opendata activists today:
