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/

The UK government approved $169m worth of military equipment to Israel in the three months that followed the Labour government’s partial suspension of arms exports over concerns they could be used unlawfully in Gaza.
“This is the Labour government aiding and abetting Israel’s genocide in Gaza,” said Emily Apple, media coordinator for the UK-based Campaign Against Arms Trade.

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.
