James Smith called for a non-emergency wellness check because he was concerned for his neighbor and a white cop showed up, didn't announce himself, didn't check the mother fucking door and shot her *through the glass* of her own while she was watching her nephew.

Of course, Ms. Jefferson was a Black woman because the police simply do not treat white people like this. They just don't

This cop should get murder one, but won't.

We know why

Liebe Entitäten,
es geht um #Selm!
In einer Ratssitzung hat der Bürgermeister erhebliche Zweifel daran geäußert, dass die Selmer Bürger*innen Interesse an einem Klimaschutz-Konzept haben.

Am 04.11. um 19Uhr hat der Bürgermeister ins Bürgerhaus eingeladen.
Thema: Der Klimawandel,der Klima-Notstand,das Klimaschutz-Konzept und die Kosten.

Deshalb, Supported die Selmer Klima-Aktivisten*innen!Wir wollen zeigen das es uns Wichtig ist. Wenn Ihr aus Selm und Umgebung kommt,dann kommt am 4.11. vorbei!

Cool teardown video from Applied Science that reveals how analog era snapshot cameras printed the date on the film negative:

With the segmented digits, you'd think it's a tiny fluorescent display, but it's actually more interesting that that.

if i had to use windows on my current laptop, i would actually have to throw it away

using linux on it has allowed me to keep using a computer while living in poverty

in the long run, free software benefits everyone

@moiety @uint8_t found it

I just realized (many) mail addresses are valid Python:

Last August, the excellent Gitlab forge migrated to Google Cloud : -(
https://about.gitlab.com/blog/2018/07/19/gcp-move-update/

As a direct consequence, the site is no longer accessible from several countries. Indirect consequence: sysadmin and developpers in these same countries can no longer download Gitlab's source code to install it on their servers.

@Framasoft provides a mirror of Gitlab Debian repositories: https://apt.gitlab.mirror.framasoft.org/

Feel free to share the information (in other languages if possible).

FinFisher hat gerade eine große Spendenkampagne für @netzpolitik_org@twitter.com gestartet. Die Argumente sind extrem überzeugend. 🥰

I will not participate in #Hacktoberfest this year, although contributing to #OpenSource and #FreeSoftware is my day job. First, I already have enough t-shirts. But second, the ecosystem I use on a daily basis is mostly made up of projects that use GitLab, or BitBucket, or sr.ht, or Fossil, or sending patches by mail, or GNU Savannah, or (good grief!) even SourceForge. I think only two of the projects I contributed last year were on GitHub.

The #FOSS world is so much bigger. Don't forget that.

a couple of F-16s flew overhead earlier

as soon as we heard the deep roar of turbojets, we reflected as we always do on how lucky we are that the sound of American war machines does not tell us that we need to find a safe place to take refuge immediately
