@jerome_herbinet on connait la raison de ne pas être sur fdroid?
@dallo En gros : dès septembre 2026, Google va obliger tous les devs Android à s'enregistrer avec leur identité réelle, même hors Play Store. Vu que F-Droid, marche à l'anonymat, ça risque juste de le tuer. Donc, je pense qu'une partie de développeurs, aussi libristes soient-ils, ne feront donc plus l'effort de publier leur logiciels sur Fdroid (Goodwy doit en faire partie).
@davidgerard @niklasnisbeth @david_chisnall @kevin This sounds very much like enshittification; understood not as screwing up investors but general decay of services. And that would mean that AI only amplified the issue, not created it. After all, corporations were AI before AI, just slower.
@Krazov @niklasnisbeth @david_chisnall @kevin oh it's absolutely delivering on an existing need, of a sort

Organisational Dysfunction of the Day
When the glue leaves
Context: Every team has one. The person who remembers why the architecture is the way it is, who onboards new people without being asked, who spots the misunderstanding between two colleagues before it becomes a conflict, who writes the documentation nobody else gets around to. They are rarely the loudest voice in the room. Their work is invisible precisely because it works. Then they leave, or they are cut in a restructuring because their output is hard to measure. The team notices immediately. Things that used to happen automatically now fall through the gaps. A few months later, a manager is hired to fill the coordination hole. They come from outside, know how to run a team, but not the domain, not the technology, not the relationships. The team now has overhead where it used to have glue.
OST explains: Parkinson observed that in a bureaucratic structure, administrators multiply subordinates rather than rivals, not out of malice, but because DP1 has only one answer to a coordination problem: add a layer above it. When the informal coordinator disappears, the organisation's structural immune response is to hire a professional manager. It is the only move available. The result is a double loss. The team loses the person who held things together from within, and gains someone whose coordination mechanism is hierarchy rather than craft knowledge and trust. In a DP2 structure, those coordination functions belong to the group as a whole; they are distributed across the team by design, so no single person carries them alone and no single departure collapses them. In DP1, that distribution never happened. The coordination lived in one person because the structure had no other place for it. The replacement manager is DP1's only available response to a gap that DP1 itself created, not a solution to it. The organisation did not solve the coordination problem. It institutionalised it.

Never really considered Minteh a realistic option after Brighton got greedy.
@vruz He’s out injured for two months and we’re supposed to pay £70M?!?! I don’t think so!
@las_lallero bello dai.
Così tutti quelli che entrano ti chiederanno "ma quando finiscono i lavori?"
@Yaku mi da proprio un autismo specifico vedere quel tipo di pannelli come finitura
EL CONSELLER D'ESPORTS DE LA GENERALITAT, @BERNI ALVAREZ sap que la policia li va pegar una palliça a un aficionat del Barça per portar una estelada a Elx? No te res a dir?
@jaumepujolgalceran muntaran un Observatori Vigilant de Banderes Requisades amb 30 càrrecs cobrant sous indecents.
I hope the tech billionaires who are always grousing about how everyone hates them are watching the reaction to Dolly Parton’s passing. Nobody hates you because you’re rich. We hate you because of what you decided to use being rich to accomplish
Hello Bientôt la rentrée universitaire Pendant 3 jours, j'ai le plaisir de participer à l'université d'été de l'UNIF 👉 On causera enseignement et numérique avec un programme très varié : motivations des étudiants, trucs et astuces pour créer des diaporamas, des mind maps, intégrer des IA et même utiliser des logiciels libres...
✍️ C'est copieux ! https://unif.fr/universite-dete-enseigner-avec-le-numerique-2026/ #ESR #UNIF #universite #enseignement #logiciellibre

"Zombiefeuer": Wie gefährlich sind diese wiederkehrenden Feuer?
Waldbrände überall in Europa - dabei war auch immer wieder von "Zombiefeuern" die Rede. Was steckt dahinter? Und wie groß ist die Gefahr, dass auch in Deutschland bereits totgeglaubte Feuer plötzlich wiederkehren? Von Frank Bäumer.
Alles, was von der #Klimakatastrophe ablenken kann.
Hm, Glasscherben hat nicht funktioniert.
Da sind "Zombies" natürlich ein viel gewaltigeres Bild.
1) Politik legt die Moore trocken wegen Agrarlobby
2) Wenn alles brennt, waren es halt die Zombies. 🧟
Rhetorisch klug, real nicht.
Ach, tagesschau, was hattet ihr Herrn Bert gefeiert … Die Wahrheit hätte ich mir gewünscht.

While Europe is at war with Russia, Trump flies an American C-17 aircraft to Moscow containing a large convoy of diplomatic vehicles.
Imagine how the US would have responded, if Canada had flown to Berlin in 1945 with the long-term goal of getting some trade going with Hitler because "Canada first".
This White House sides with dictators.
Update: CIA Director Radcliffe on board.
@randahl Shame shame shame! The US is not an ally anymore

C'est le problème de l'oeuf et la poule classique des systèmes crypto : comme à l'époque de PGP, la rencontre en personne est la manière la plus sûr, sinon pas le choix: passer par d'autres canaux de communication, ou confirmer l'identité avec des tiers.

Israel's use of so-called "shepherding outposts" to seize Palestinian land through settler herders is now being exported to Syria, as an Israeli settler, supported by the state, occupies Syrian pastureland in Wadi Toemm with a herd of 140 cattle.
