Because various people have asked for it, I’ve mirrored all the GitLab Bookface and Postbox repositories to GitHub:
github.com/randompenguin1?tab=…
The canonical location is still on GitLab, that's where I'll still be making the actual commits. The Bookface wiki is also still on GitLab (it apparently doesn't get included when mirroring to GitHub). And the actual Releases are still on GitLab because GitHub apparently only mirrors the version tags.
My projects website page, however, is hosted at GitHub because I ran into problems setting one up on GitLab: randompenguin1.github.io/

L'immagine mostra una schermata di un'applicazione di social media, probabilmente Mastodon, con un post di Richard Stallman. Il post include un link a un articolo del Guardian del 16 maggio 2025, intitolato "A new phase: why climate activists are turning to sabotage instead of protest" di Damien Gayle. Stallman critica la repressione dei protestanti pacifici, suggerendo che i climatologi che vogliono salvare la civiltà e il mondo naturale dalla catastrofe climatica si sentono più in grado di evitare le conseguenze sabotando l'attrezzatura. Il post è stato condiviso alle 09:19 del 16 maggio 2025 e ha ricevuto due condivisioni.

Festival de Cannes : hommage à Fatma Hassouna, photojournaliste palestinienne tuée à Gaza
Tuée à Gaza en avril 2025, la photojournaliste palestinienne Fatma Hassouna est mise à l’honneur à Cannes, où un documentaire retrace son combat et son regard sur la guerre. Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk, réalisé par Sepideh Farsi et présenté dans la section ACID, s’appuie sur des échanges vidéo entre les deux femmes pour raconter le quotidien de Hassouna sous les bombes.

But I get the terrible feeling it was better done with the telephoto lens !?!

Belgian parliament scraps its nuclear phaseout plan.
Belgium's parliament on Thursday voted to drop the country's planned nuclear phaseout, adopted over two decades ago.
The motion was passed with 102 votes in favour, eight against and 31 abstentions.
Previously, it had delayed the phaseout for 10 years over the energy uncertainty triggered by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
