Yeah, no....this is too fucking hot. You can feel a hot breeze of air outside as if the earth turned on the oven.

This is how streets look like in a small town while cloudy:

Imagine that most big cities are way worse and way hotter. Also imagine that instead of cars we had trees. It would make a massive difference. But our society is not built for humans, it is built for cars, stuff to consume, etc..

We know how to deal with the climate change, we know how to design better cities and create a paradise on earth for everyone. But there is no incentive to do so in a society where trade is the main driving force.

Isn't SpaceXMania's so-called "satire" always written from a far-right POV, and doesn't it have real consequences? 🤷🏽‍♂️

After many months we are bringing back our TROM.tf Search! search.trom.tf/ thanks to Danny!

But with a twist. Instead of hosting a SearX instance we are using a script that checks the best and most reliable instances and uses them randomly for every search. It is a meta-search engine. This way we make sure it is reliable and our IP will never get blocked by google and the rest.

For those who do not know, SearX is itself a sort of meta-search engine, pulling results from google, DDG, yahoo and more, removing the ads and trackers, and basically allowing you to search without those viruses.

So, we are finally back!

To add it to Firefox simply right click the URL after the page loads, and then add the TROM Search as a search engine. From Firefox's settings make sure you select it to be as default for your browser.

We have tested it on mobile/desktop with Firefox and other browsers based on it, and browsers based on chromium such as Cromite. All works fine.

Works very well, after allowing cross-domain XMLHttpRequests.

Thanks!

TROMjaro is alive and well. And we keep it up to date and relevant - tromjaro.com - I love our Linux distro! :) I love when it is stable and just works. And we also ship with so many tweaks you can simply use it. No ads, no trackers, all apps available in Linux from one single place - click and install. I love it. A very positive project indeed :)

This is probably slightly besides the point, but I absolutely love your collection of backgrounds :)


The usual Manjaro Stable update plus we disabled one more of the Firefox’s terrible settings, one that allows advertisers to track you a little bit better.


Although not much since we are also severely underfunded, TROM is donating 10 Euros a month to Yunohost donate.yunohost.org/ and is encouraging you to do the same if you use Yunohost and can afford. Let's hope more people support these projects.

Funny how everyone thinks everyone uses Whatsapp. Almost as if it is a default messaging app for phones. Pisses me off. I have a hard time trying to explain to people that I do not use it, I use Signal. They look at me as if I am a weirdo. But fuck them :D - if anyone wants to contact me, use Signal. It is a shame that an ad company, facebook who owns whatsapp, has become the default messaging platform for most humans on this planet.

But well, ad companies like google, tiktok, and the like are used for all sorts of online means by everyone.

Sad. And we should not accept this situation.

When contacting someone I use SMS/RCS, and I'm simply not responding to Whatsapp direct messages, or maybe one day later. This sends a strong message (pun).

But I still need Whatsapp, and Fb Messenger above all, because groups are there, less known friends are there, and because sometimes conversations start with Facebook stories.

in reply to Tio

For me, the problem is not the advertising companies, but the state. They have a specific interest in the location of my body and my activities there. Simply share articles with WhatsApp users about how the state murders people with metadata, for example via air strikes or drones.


We will change our IPs for our projects' websites, except trom.tf. There will be downtimes. Today/Tomorrow. You can always check the status at status.tromsite.com/
