Au musée du @lecnam ils préservent la mémoire historique d'un passé lointain quand le service @velib marchait à @paris. Bravo!

Shitty handling of parents with babies by @transavia, take 2. Online check in still not available. And they check in mom row 2 and dad w/ baby on lap row 28. Way to go.

In this #LibrePlanet 2018 talk, "Browsing the free software commons," Stefano Zacchiroli @zacchiro delivers a primer on the Software Heritage project @SWHeritage, a vast public library of source code: https://u.fsf.org/2j2

This makes me angry:

I run my own mail server in a VPS. Its IP address is NOT blacklisted, and I have both SPF and DKIM properly configured. I do NOT send bulk mail.

But still, Gmail classifies my personal emails as SPAM.

Same email with same exactly same contents, sent through PoBox SMTP server goes to INBOX. Directly from VPS, goes to SPAM. No explanations, no public blacklist. It looks like they just don't want people going "indie". Sigh.
