Hi @aral !

We've almost completed the crowdfunding of #Mobilizon (our not-so-secret project to get our events off Facebook!)

I think Mobilizon fits perfectly with the #smalltech concept.

However, as you know, we are struggling to make our actions known outside France, so - now that we don't need more money (we won't do "more" with "more money") - we need help to make the project known to non-French-speaking activists.
Can you help us?

This year's #Inkscape Cover Art Contest generated 24 entries from 22 Inkscapers around the world. Sanda Krstulović's was voted the winner by fellow members of the project's Facebook group.

We must put an end to warrantless digital device searches at the border.

“Regardless of whether you have embarrassing information on your device...it’s about personal autonomy and living in a free society and not a police state," says EFF's Sophia Cope. https://theintercept.com/2019/06/22/cbp-border-searches-journalists/

"The #platforms are fine if you want to talk about sports, relate your kids’ latest escapades or shop. But if you want to write about how platforms and govt legislation can’t tell the difference between #sextrafficking/ #sex, #nudity/ #pornography, #terrorism investigations/ terrorism itself or #copyright infringement/ #parody, you’re out of luck.
Any one of those keywords will give the filters an incurable case of machine anxiety—but all of them together? Forget it."

The problem isn’t bias; it’s censorship. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/06/sen-hawleys-bias-bill-would-let-government-decide-who-speaks

i.MX8M DDR PHY update: NXP tells me that "Since the
firmware only executes on a custom controller embedded in the PHY and only has access to certain IP controls and hence it can not be used to mount an attack on the rest of the SoC or obtain any other information on other modules or memory regions of the SoC. [...]"

i.MX8MQ's MIPI DPY driver entered linux next (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=f4c8116e294b12c360b724173f4b79f232573fb1) - one more thing of the display stack going mainline (number of driver wise we're halway there now but the large chunks are still ahead)

For any concerned webdevs my advice is:

1. Most importantly: Test in multiple browsers
2. Avoid JavaScript, there's too much bloat there for new browser engines to afford. If you must use JS discuss how new web standards can help you move away from it
3. Use progressive enhancement/graceful degradation, this will help new browsers get started quickly
4. Don't worry about your pages looking the same everywhere, only care that they look good everywhere
5. Related to (2), try out Intercooler.js
