Bullshit Bingo : Prix du mois de mai attribué à la Fonderie IdF

Il semble que les Hackerspaces soient à la mode en ce moment au vu des sollicitations que le /tmp/lab reçoit. A la mode surtout auprès des “institutions” en mal d’idées… Nous allons donc attribuer régulièrement le prix “Bullshit Bingo” aux adeptes des innovations communautaires entrepreneuriales “data pitch hackers digitaux” situés dans les tiers lieux participatifs connectes #fun. C’est quoi le Bullshit Bingo ? Pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas ce

Act on ACTA: EU vote is soon

And support La Quadrature Du Net in this fight, we have to defend our freedom to use, to create, to share and to live. Industries have to evolve with their time, not to set everyone back in time wishing the old times were still here. Hey Universal, EMI and all you huge godzilla companies 😉 I’m talking to you: evolve or die. “Oh, Legislator! you should forbid gas-engines, they threaten

Nuclear race on the net

It’s been quite a 2011 year already: Anonymous and Lulzsec showing themselves as “defenders of the (net)people” , attacking and compromising FBI’s Infraguard of Atlanta, showing professional videos that could be featured in V for Vendetta. Grassroot DDoS on unfriendly/unfair internet companies such as Paypal. Secret services endorsing nearly openly the use of offensive hacks against each other and third party countries. Wikileaks being dismembered, with CCC firing one of

Rails: Compare installed Gems

A difficult issue with Rails is managing the installed gems between development and production environment. Here is a little method i found to solve my gem comparison problems when i have a lot of different gems, let’s say between my development machine and the production environment at say DreamHost. First I collect the installed gems on both machines: [penguins]$ gem list –local > /tmp/dh.gem … devmachine:~/dev/web/ $ gem list –local

Adopt a TOR Relay, support the TOR network by donating bitcoins

We’re starting to have some TOR nodes setup, mostly as Relays right now, but potentially in the future as exit nodes. If you want to join the /tmp/lab TOR Tech group, join #frlab and ask. You may also want just to donate some money to support our TOR node hosting. Then donate whatever you want to: 1PXoEM1pqFZjfc8eHZk2Uu6CPPfF1v3tny [Edit 15-06-11 for the sake of full disclosure]: To prevent legal harassment, this

So, Why is WikiLeaks a Good Thing Again?

Wikileaks is changed our world in just a few month of actions. Now the foreign affairs have to think in a new way: democracy have “crept in” their protected sphere and they cannot do anymore what they were accustomed to do in total impunity. Thus, Wikileaks brings in a new general international policy of responsibility of embassies and foreign affairs to engage only in actions that they could justify in

Final Cut Express, crashes with AVCHD & little MacOS X walkthrough

Update: whereas Fincal Cut Express keeps on crashing, it looks like Blender (free open source software) is managing AVCHD files (MTS or else) natively and cleanly. The alternative is there and obviously better than FCE. Time to switch back to open & free. We mostly use FLOSS (Free Libre Open Source Software) for a reason. But very often, some support for a format forces us to use non-free software, and

Code Trail les 2 et 3 octobre 2010 : porting OpenBSD to Marvell Sheevaplug

Le week end des 2 et 3 octobre, c’est code trail au /tmp/lab. Le principe est simple : passer un week end entre personnes désireuses de s’aventurer en terrain peu connu, et progresser en échangeant connaissances et compétences. Celui de début octobre sera consacré au processus de boot d’OpenBSD et à l’architecture ARM, et plus particulièrement le sheevaplug. L’objectif est d’arriver à faire démarrer un noyau ramdisk, et d’interagir avec

Call for Support for les Hauts Lieux

Hi folks, At the beginning of April, a small but determined group of hackers found a big unused space in the heart of Lille, a french city located at the crossroads of Brussels, Paris, London and Amsterdam, and the 4th biggest urban agglomeration in France.
