Suites aux annonces catastrophiques venant de M. Yves Guillemot (plan de réductions des coûts, projets tués, arrêt du télétravail, etc.), la section Solidaires Informatique appelle à un débrayage ce Jeudi 22 Janvier matin.

This is them doing a stealth layoff, since they won't have to report the people who quit as a layoff event (and they have studios in countries where a layoff could fuck them over a bit), and naturally anyone who stays will then have crunch inflicted. It's a lot harder to effectively crunch remote.

Dans le jeu vidéo, l'année 2025 était chargée d'attaques contre les travailleureuses, de crises en tout genre, mais aussi d'avancées sociales importantes et de victoires.

Alors que les nuages noirs s'accumulent à l'horizon dès ce début d'année, rappelons-nous que la résistance est possible ✊

Séquence hallucinante d'une juge française révélant les pressions américaines dont elle a fait l'objet dans l'affaire Le Pen.

Le RN veut faire campagne sur le slogan "on est chez nous"? En tout cas, ses sponsors se sentent déjà comme chez eux.

Je viens de tomber sur un truc fascinant. En 1970, la FNAC et Paris ont organisé un concours photo basé sur un découpage géométrique de Paris. Ce site permet de visionner 30 000 des photos produites à cette occasion

Merci de rappeler la violence raciste et coloniale du Danemark.
Ce n'est pas parce que Trump est une pelle à merde que ses adversaires sont soudainement des anges.
Denmark stole my Greenlandic friend's baby 2 hrs after she was born based on a racist "parent compancy" test (FKU) which is filled with nonsense when it comes to parenting abilities.

El Hacem Diarra, a été tué parce qu’il a refusé de se faire palper. Tasé, interpellé, il a fini par être tué par des policiers, à l’abri de tous les regards dans le commissariat.

Aucune info dans les médias, rien… Pas de vidéo pas de scandale.

Racisme, impunité, la police quoi.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

I often think about Jonathan Cooper's posts about TLOU2, that the studio ran out of seasoned game animators because its reputation was so bad and thus had to hire film folks who had to be taught how to put games together.
