I feel like this motorhome ordeal is holding me hostage for the past months. This is why it has to end. Monday or Tuesday we do a mechanical inspection on this 2005 motorhome that we like the most so far. And it is a make it or break it deal. If there is no major issue with it, we buy it that day. But if we decide not to buy it next week, we will "move on" with our lives and "reboot" the motorhome searching next year in January.
I am craving for some stability and support to be able to do some relevant stuff. I am desperate to create more stuff for TROM because it keeps me sane, active, and engaged.
So yah I hope next week we will have a motorhome and we will be 100% broke :) because this one costs more than we can afford so we have to borrow money from family and friends....but we do not have any other reasonable option. However I prefer that to the current situation.
I want to watch documentaries, to go with the telescope, to read more interesting stuff, to write write write and create content.
Also, the "elections" in the USA are coming it seems. Hard to

Also, the "elections" in the USA are coming it seems. Hard to escape this bullshit it is everywhere. Same shitshow. Same nothingness. This society is indeed as idiotic as that 2006 movie Idiocracy... I never voted, I never will probably. No matter who you elect, the trade society is what rules over anything else. Decisions, content, lives...an incentive to prioritize money, profit making, etc.. And I see no "politician" talking about that. All live in the fantasy land, detached from reality.
At least the world is amazing, the natural one. What is left of. The tiny creatures, the big ones, evolution, the stars and the universe. That's what keeps me happy.
This is the inside story of how AI cracked the protein folding code. In 2024, David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for these advances in computer-assisted protein design and structure prediction.
Proteins are biological nano-machines that perform a vast array of vital functions inside of every living organism. For more than half a century, scientists have looked to solve the central mystery of protein science: How does a one-dimensional string of molecules fold innately and near-instantaneously into a complex three-dimensional shape? In 2020, Google DeepMind entered a deep-learning algorithm called AlphaFold2 into the Olympics of protein folding — and to everyone’s shock and surprise, ended up so

In 2020, Google DeepMind entered a deep-learning algorithm called AlphaFold2 into the Olympics of protein folding — and to everyone’s shock and surprise, ended up solving a key part of the puzzle. This breakthrough kick-started an AI revolution in biology research, clearing the path to revolutionary new techniques in protein design, which is the process of creating new and novel proteins that could solve some of the world's biggest problems.
Israel's unabated bombardments across the war-torn Gaza Strip have claimed the lives of 36 Palestinians, including 34 from northern Gaza, since dawn today, medical sources told Al Jazeera.
En el universo observable hay unas 200.000 millones de galaxias. Si cada galaxia tuviera el tamaño de un cereal de desayuno, el universo observable tendría 37 titanics de largo (unos 10 km). Si juntamos todas las galaxias del tamaño de un cereal y las vertemos en una pisicina de 25m x 12.5m x 1.8m, ¿crees que se llenaría la piscina?
"Este vídeo fue relativamente complicado debido a la cantidad de cereales o galaxias que tuve que renderizar a veces. Creo que en la toma en la que estoy "bajo el agua" rodeado de galaxias había como un millón a mi alrededor, ¡lo que hizo sudar un poco a mi ordenador! Tuve que hacer las galaxias un poco más pequeñas de lo que deberían para esa toma, porque de lo contrario era sólo un mar de luz blanca. Fue todo un reto conseguir la escala real de 200.000 millon

Hay tantas historias maravillosas en la ciencia sobre cómo sabemos las cosas."
This system of trade incentivizes more people to waste plastic and pollute, than use it wisely or cleanup like these people do. Ultimately we need to deal with this bad and global incentive because the balance is tilted in the wrong way.
I took a part in the World Clean Up Day 2024. An epic event which happens once a year. It unites millions of people all over the world with a mission to clean up nature. To find out more, participa...
Anyone know what's up with the Firefox fork Fennec? I got a warning the other day that there were security vulnerabilities in the app, and upon checking when the last version was compiled it was in August. The source cide link just takes me to Mozilla's repos.
Disabled the app and switched browsers for the moment, but wanted to know if anybody knows what's going on with it. If not, anybody know of any other Android Firefox forks that cut Mozilla things out?
Here's a chance to learn from one of the jazz piano greats of the Bay Area. He needs more signups to his channel before he can do a live event. This guy is worth watching even if you are not currently learning piano Subscribe here: youtube.com/@FredBlastinBarrie… #piano #music
After almost a year, I finally got my physical driving license card....and I am able to release a big blog post about it! tiotrom.com/2024/10/spanish-dr…
Many thanks to Videla and Tedla for becoming the new 200 for TROM supporters! tromsite.com/donate/ - as soon as we will manage our life and kick-start the TROMhome project, we will push TROM a lot more! The 200 for TROM support is essential for the survival of this project.
We are trying something unique by only accepting 5 Euros monthly donations to make it more sustainable for everyone.
If you want to know what people are supporting, see the donation page.
It's time for solutions that address the core problem of why most people choose the likes of GAFAM over secure, self-hostable options.
As he says here, don't expect someone to get a CS degree to simply be able to share photos and files with family and friends. I say, let's look to the pinnacle days of user interface design in the 60s and 70s or early like Braun.
Everything was knobs you turn, faders you slide or a button to push.
Claude: A design perspective on a personal decentralized home server | Nextcloud Conference 2024
Claude: A Design Perspective on a Personal Decentralized Home Server by Diede van Marle
In this lightning talk, Diede will present his master thesis project, "Claude," a personal home server designed with a strong focus on privacy and secure sharing. This talk will explore how design principles can be applied to create more private file storage solutions, drawing inspiration from self-hosting practices and peer-to-peer sharing. Diede will discuss the project's origins, the development process, and the key insights gained along the way.
