The last couple of years I've always walked 40 km during Night of the Refugee (Nacht van de vluchteling). This year there is a special 50 km route, due to Stichting Vluchteling existing for 50 years. Definitely a challenge since 40 km is already quite long, but I'm confident I will succeed 😊
I'd really appreciate you donating via the link above to raise funds!
**Update:** the UBports installer config has been merged so it should be available now with any recent version of the installer!

Add the ability to install postmarketOS on the device using the installer. Draft: prebuilt images should be built once https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/build.postmarketos.org/-/merge_re...
An easy way to install #postmarketOS on the #Fairphone (Gen. 6), with the UBports installer and the postmarketOS web flasher!
The UBports installer config is currently under review, and the postmarketOS web flasher support for Fairphone (Gen. 6) is already live at https://flash.postmarketos.org/ Enjoy!

Le podcast @mixitconf est vraiment super intéressant. J'ai écouté le dernier épisode sur le risque anti-démocratique d'une société obnubilée par les chiffres et j'ai trouvé ça passionnant.
Merci à Valérie Charolles, chercheure titulaire HDR au Laboratoire d’Anthropologie Politique (EHESS & CNRS) et à @agnes007 et Audrey Neveur pour l'animation.
Si vous préférez une vidéo avec projection visuelle : https://mixitconf.org/2025/nos-manieres-de-compter-perils-economiques-democratiques-et-ecologiques-
Nos manières de compter, périls économiques, démocratiques et écologiques. Dans cet épisode, nous discutons avec Valérie Charolles sur notre rapport aux chiffres et leur gouvernance de nos sociétés. Entre PIB, croissance économique et illéttrisme numérique, elle montre que les chiffres ne sont jamais neutres. Un plaidoyer pour plus de transparence et de compréhension démocratique dans comment nos institutions utilisent les données pour nous gouverner.

AI and artificial butter parallels 🧈🤯
@nkb draws parallels between the rise of artificial butter (margarine) in the early 20th century and Artificial Intelligence today.
Just as 1900s entrepreneurs used "cutting-edge" organic chemistry to turn raw materials from the Global South (oil palms, coconuts) into an ersatz product, today’s AI companies rely on labor from the same regions to label data and produce digital "ersatz" content.
