Whenever a user, a government, a school or a business chooses the format in which to store and exchange its digital documents, it is not merely making a technical decision, but is placing a bet on the kind of digital infrastructure on which it will depend in the future. In this sense, ODF and OOXML are not two equivalent options on the same shelf, but two radically different solutions: one geared towards a future of openness, interoperability and digital sovereignty, and the other towards a past of defending a vendor’s dominant market position through user lock-in. ODF: designed to be open and transparent Open Document Format was conceived from the outset to be an open standard. It was designed and developed by the community under the auspices of OASIS, and subsequently ratified by ISO, to be implemented by anyone, on any platform, without royalties, without hidden dependencies and without the permission of any single company. These are not trivial technical details, but a statement of political and economic strategy embedded within the format itself. ODF is based on a clean XML schema, easy to read even by non-technical users and reusable. Colour naming follows standard web conventions, and its architecture

Today is the World Day Against Cyber Censorship.
What you can do, with minimal effort, to support civilians in #Iran and in many other countries with relentless censorship:
Install the #Snowflake plugin in your browser, and just enable it. No other config is required.
The plugin makes the #Tor network available to people in countries with heavy #censorship, so they can bypass it and get information from abroad.

New documents have surfaced revealing details about Israel's conduct during the 1948 War in which it ethnically cleansed 750,000 Palestinians from their homes.
The documents confirm Israeli leaders carried out more war crimes & premeditated massacres than previously thought.
The orders issued to soldiers "were unreservedly to shoot every Arab – hence it makes no difference whether it is a man or a woman, whether the Arab is armed or not, whether he flees or raises his hands and surrenders. If you saw an #Arab while on patrol, you are obligated to shoot him."
Another order read: "Arabs in a small number are wandering about in the [captured] villages ... the area is to be cleansed of Arabs ... every Arab who will be met with is to be annihilated."
"In Lod, hundreds of Arabs were taken into a mosque and Fiats (rockets) were fired into it."

Ils ont une paire de saisons mais sont encore largement bons et j'ai les pneus mais plus la voiture pour les mettre dessus.
Sur #Grenoble , don ou échange contre une bonne bière un de ces quatre.
