Today’s Spain is completely different than Franco’s Spain though

Magnifique

Yay, thank you!

Glad you made it!

Super, merci !

Awesome! Thanks for participating!

Flash once brought movement and surprise to the web. Its free expressiveness has fascinated many creators, and in Japan, innovative websites such as Yugo Nakamura’s MONO*crafts (1999) have been born one after another. However, it also has weaknesses such as slow operation, security risks, and difficulty in adapting to the smartphone era, and official support for it ended in 2020. These works have already become “lost technology”.

This archive is an attempt to preserve for posterity a glimpse of Japanese web design born in the Flash era. It features screenshots from that time and links to the Internet Archive, mainly of sites introduced in the Web Design Gallery that has been running since 2007. For works whose data remains in the archive, you can actually see the sites as they were at the time. < I no longer have screenshots from before 2007, and I do not have enough records from that period, but I’m sure you can still feel the passion and creative breath of that time from the works lined up here.

I hope that by looking back at the web expressions of those bygone days, you can once again feel the influence that Flash had on later web design and the creative passion that was its source.

P.S. I have just released “Dear Internet,” a service that lets you create your own online autobiography. I hope you will take a look at it as well.

Hey, that’s right, my plan is for the deadline to be at my midnight to offer a chance for everyone to have a full 1st of April, I’m also considering giving one more week because I know some instances were interested but haven’t sent a song yet, this would also allow me to perfect the voting form haha

My body is ready. Thanks!

And thank you again for the participation of lemmy.ca!

Merci bien 😊

It’s my right ear for some reason

TL;DR : unions, high participation, nationwide event

So, usually, protests are called nationwide by unions, and supported by NGOs and political parties (sometimes the other way around, very rarely by the citizen themselves because we have little coordination as individuals, the only time it happened was something big like the yellow vests).

It happens either on the weekend for a protest, or a weekday for a strike, both involves walking down a pre agreed path (usually the main streets of any city where the protest is happening), and ends in a plaza where statements are made. The procession is made up of multiple groups of participating organisations, plus anyone who wants to join. Slogans are sung, people hold signs, flyers are given out, there’s batucadas… It’s all very fun and invigorating tbh.

Then, in major cities, once the protest nears its end, you may see black blocks forming, also some rioters and looters depending on the thematics of the protest, and police (CRS) starting to pressure people, by this point it can go south and police may start to block some street access shoot with rubber balls, gas, hit people with their tonfas, make arrests… you name it.

The following days unions will release the number of participants, police will then release their own data, and the real number will probably be halfway between the two claims

Some technicalities: in complete disregard of international law, France gas a requirement where you have to declare the protest and have it approved by the mayor’s office two days in advance, otherwise it will be considered “illegal” and police will be violent faster

Most importantly: why does protesting work in France ? Because french people are rarely satisfied, very critical of their government, and complain a lot, but they don’t stop there. When we protest, we don’t half ass it, we do it in big numbers, it’s cultural, and we carry this revolutionary spirit, and we’re not afraid to go out in the streets if something doesn’t sit right with us.

There’s a lot more that can be said about the history of unions in France, and how union culture and “rapport de force” helped protect workers, and how owners have tried to lessen the power of unions leading to less protests, and less workers rights, but I don’t feel confident and knowledgeable enough on this subject.

Here are some interesting articles on the subject:
