Dear Women, you are about half the vote.

@jonn and if you really like references to France's darkest hours here is a video of an orchestra singing a renewed version of a video mocking Pétain in front of the headquarters of the far-right party: https://youtu.be/yCC16KD9zWQ?si=8ipsL56CjJbjVo1q

@jonn
Finally you have to understand that the rise of the far-right has been facilitated or even worse engineered by Macron in an attempt to be always presented as « the last wall against fascism » and easily win elections, by systematically destroying and diabolising leftist forces in France and on the opposite side allowing far-right ideas to enter in the public debate, even passing some of them as law.

⚡Le Pen against France providing long-range missiles, troops to Ukraine.

French far-right politician Marine Le Pen said in an interview with CNN on July 5 that her party is against continuing to provide Ukraine with long-range missiles and the possibility of sending French troops to Ukraine.

I saw this story, and had to share:

Last saturday, in Porto, there was a pride parade going down the street, and this old man was standing there, by his front door, waving the portuguese flag. Most people on the parade probably thought the same: old person waving the national flag. He's probably protesting against the parade, he's a nationalist of some sort.

Then the old man called for that person to come near him. The whole parade stopped. Everyone just.. stopped moving. They didn't know what to expect, and most expected the worst, and that person decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, and approached the old man, and then... they traded flags. He hugged the person, and then he waved the pride flag happily. everyone cheered him.

Starting today, one may formally declare their intent to submit a game to #ifcomp2024

August 1 is the last day one may do so.

Remember, this year the Comp starts at the beginning of September, not October!

Iceland is the only country who, after the 2008 crash, let banks go bust and jailed bankers.

Parliament House, Alþingishúsið, is right next to the central square in Reykjavik - its wall & windows are metres from public space.

The "kitchenware revolution" is now infamous: Protesters brought pots & pans to the square and made a racket right outside parliament.

Icelanders held the rich to account because the literal distance between the people and the government was far smaller.

🧵 In 2020, I nearly died from mysterious industrial chemical exposure at my apartment. Later, in 2023, I discovered my employer was dumping toxic waste into the apartment windows from their Skunkworks semiconductor fab next-door. I tipped off the US EPA, who sent their env cops to raid Apple's plant in Aug of 2023. The US EPA finally released the report of their enforcement inspections & sent me a copy on Friday. 💀 ⬇️

@jonn Tas laikam vairāk ciemos/pilsētās.

@jonn I don't disagree, and I have put hundreds of open source repos into the world that don't matter to show for it. But we have limited time on this rock.

Energy put into a proprietary project is guaranteed to be of no long term value to society, but working on a FOSS project at least has a non-zero chance.
