When you think about it… It’s quite astounding that the European Union needed a rogue disruption in the like of Trump to finally think about decoupling its Tech dependency from the USA and also needed a war in Ukraine to finally start to think about its own defense from a sovereign perspective, in both cases it’s going to take decades to pivot but better now than never?

👀💭 "Virginia Giuffre was called a liar. The other victims who testified to Palm Beach Police were called liars but what the documents also help to prove is that the system chose to protect the perpetrators instead of believing the victims.
That is what these January 2025 documents show. The question now is what we do about it."

I am watching ICE agents shoot a nurse in Minneapolis, and half the country believes the verified video of his previous encounter with federal agents is a deepfake. I am watching the infrastructure of verification get systematically dismantled by an administration that understands, perhaps better than anyone, that ambiguity is power. I am watching the epistemic commons burn while we argue about whether the fire is real.
The Patriots understood that once you lose shared interpretive frameworks, verification itself becomes meaningless. It’s not enough to establish facts if nobody agrees on what facts mean or why they should be trusted.

I think I never subscribed to as many RSS feeds from small blogs as I did recently since I got myself my own #microsub reader integrated into my blog engine powered by #indiekit
it’s just very comfortable to use, you read the blog post and you can reply, like or repost right from the integrated Reader view (inspired by Monocle)
it makes me read more and subscribe to more people’s blogs, which from my weekend exploration is a huge world to explore… there are so many interesting people writing about all kinds of things or even just about their own daily life: it’s a level of “sharing” that “social media” as we know it or as we have been experiencing it, cannot reproduce or emulate.
with blogs you need the intent to subscribe, after a while you eagerly wait for the next post about X or Y because you know it will come with perspectives or experience from the people directly impacted or living through it.
with blogs you have that calmness, no ads, beautiful design, some have really nice custom features that truly makes me want to improve my own blog.
perhaps I’m just getting old… I was there when it all started early 2000’s and when RSS allowed us to briefly experience and experiment the “social web” without walled gardens and corporate algorithms.
26 years later I feel that the blog revival has never been so strong and that’s very encouraging for the future of the web.

🎶🎵 Dire Straits à l’honneur ce soir … je me suis pris de nostalgie tout d’un coup et j’aime bien ma page qui s’actualise automatiquement avec ce que j’écoute 🤓

Someone should say it loud : your blog is not a blog if it does not allow me to subscribe to it using RSS.
There, I said it.

Might sound really geeky but I just managed to syndicate my indiekit/Cloudron tutorial to https://news.indieweb.org by just selecting a syndication target from the indiekit UI backend, still a few things to iron out but I can now select from two “Indienews” targets for either French or English section of the news aggregator

Deux alternatives à #linkedin qui s’interface avec Bluesky et Mastodon :
-
**Todo : **
- Make sure webmentions and syndication data is displayed on all post types
- Do more testing of indieweb interactions on mobile/desktop
- Audit security of indiekit fork & developed extensions
- Fix the issues with pictures not displaying on photo post type
- Fix the access to profile metadata for indieauth/indielogin
- Add rel-me for mastodon/blueksy
- Keep improving indiekit-microsub
- update PR with new indiekit-microsub/readers fixes
- Fix syndication targets issues (bluesky not getting out)
- Markdown used in the indiekit UI backend to create posts not rendering in the frontend (list items seems to work as shown in this very post, but not bold ?)

DHS agents tackled Pretti, held him down, then shot him to death. As in the killing of Renee Good earlier this month, video makes clear this was an extrajudicial killing — violence committed by vengeful agents of the state against a bystander perceived as an enemy.

Révélations sur le détournement d’Interpol par les pays les plus répressifs au monde
La prestigieuse organisation de police fait l’objet d’un vaste détournement de sa mission de lutte contre la criminalité au profit d’États parmi les plus répressifs au monde, révèlent Disclose et la BBC. Persécutions, traques secrètes, arrestations arbitraires… Révélations sur un système qui permet à des régimes autoritaires comme la Russie, la Turquie ou le Tadjikistan d’utiliser Interpol pour persécuter leurs opposants politiques

j’ai complètement open-sourcé tout le code qui fait tourner mon blog, évidemment je n’ai rien inventé (à part les plugins) et j’en ai fait un tuto si d’aucun/es sont assez fou pour se lancer la dedans 😀

Quite impressive to see Minneapolis protests against deportation, ICE and Trump. its crazy that Americans had to wait for so long before starting to really do something beyond nice speeches. History will remember the Republicans and Democrats that stayed silent from their position of power to avoid the Eye of Sauron and the MAGA mob.

je suis content pour Adèle Haenel, même si ça paraît peu… et en même temps je suis triste et même révolté pour toutes les personnes agressées, violées par des hommes dont l’impunité est organisée par leur statut, leurs moyens financiers et l’incapacité de la Justice ⚖️
