15 rumors we've investigated about NASA


From unbelievable images captured in space to predictions of asteroids colliding with Earth, we've researched a variety of claims related to NASA.

UPDATE: Officially the problem has been "fixed". But lets see....we will look for another provider and in case we will be forced to move, we should be able to do so in a day or two.

Our TROM.tf server was flagged by the hosting company as "Abuse: NetscanOutLevel: scansnarf-ng detected Netscan from: We have indications that there was an attack from your server." - and we have a few hours to fix the issue else they are going to shut down the server....

Please be aware of that since the websites may go down and we may have to move to another hosting provider...

This is very bad news but unaware what it can be. Please keep an eye on status.tromsite.com

We will try to update there in case anything happens.

We have accepted your statement on the issue. The ticket has now been closed.

Lets see...maybe it was fixed. Lets hope so...



DNA testing site 23andMe files for bankruptcy protection - bbc.com/news/articles/c9q4r9xy…

Of course...a bullshit company, like most companies, providing nothing useful for the people and now even putting their personal information (and DNA) at risk. Because you know, other company may buy it and who knows what it does with the data. I have been saying that since the beginning when everyone was so excited about this useless company.

To read the DNA for useful purposes should be the job of entities that do not make a business out of it, but take care of people´s health. This nonsense of "see where you ancestors are from" "see if you are fucking irish or a goblin", is so useless even if accurate, which may not even be.

Anyway, another story of nonsense companies that make people give them their data to then fuck up this information for everyone.

Dans ce genre de moyens, il y en a eut d'autres (et il y en a d'autres, mais peut-être pas tous encore complètement développés: à mon avis, certains posent pb parce qu'on pourrait ne presque rien payer du tout en tant qu'utilisateur😑) il y avait par exemple, une boite de nuit dont la piste de danse produisait l'énergie, sous l'effet des pieds des utilisateurs.

NASA published the photo years ago along with a journal written by the only American who was not on Earth during the terrorist attacks.

What We Leave Behind in TEL: The Silence Around Critical Pedagogy


In much of the UK's digital education research, there's a strong focus on scalability, platform integration, and institutional alignment.

What's often missing?

- Critical pedagogy
- Questions of power, justice, and values
- Grounded reflections on why we teach the way we do

In this blog post, I explore why those deeper questions are often absent -- and what we might do about it.

Read it here: elearning.home.nomagic.uk/0011…

I'd really welcome others' thoughts: are you seeing the same emphasis where you work?

I hope Felon47 is taking note of these crowds. If so, it has got to be eating away at him!


Me & Māra are doing a lot of nature & wildlife protection and conservation work, and need some financial support. This week we participated in 2 actions, the first one was dolphin research expedition in France, 2nd habitat restoration for birds in Slovenia.
We have a Patreon page where we share our updates, plans, ideas, behind the scenes and other information. Anyone can support us there starting just from 5 euro per month. And we always produce short documentaries about the work we did, and about amazing project and organizations we are joining.
If you think that what we do is important please support us there.

The Signal Has Gone Live: Welcome to Wish Green


The signal is live.
Just arrived in the Fediverse to start building something deeper.
I’m a conscious creator sharing thoughts, frequencies, questions, and real human upgrades.

This is #WishGreen 🌱
A flow, a project, a perspective shift.

Hello Fediverse!


I'm Stephen Wheeler, an eLearning Technologist at The University of Manchester. My work focuses on online and distance learning, including MOOCs, OERs, and student-centred design rooted in critical pedagogy. I advocate for Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and ethical, decentralised platforms that support authentic engagement and inclusive education.

I'm here to connect with fellow educators, technologists, and open education advocates, and to explore how platforms like Friendica can support collaborative, non-commercial educational spaces.

Looking forward to meaningful conversations across the Fediverse!

Here we stayed in a very nice free motorhome parking area in a mountain village called Cirat. Cirat has hiking trails, waterfalls and many beautiful lookouts (and also some microscopic creatures that we could observe through our microscope 😁)

We spent 4 days in this spot and found a micromonster


Cirat was such a wonderful place to be in. Close to the mountains and having access to all facilities we needed, made us stay there for 4 days. We just did not want to leave....

Thank you Michael for becoming our new Patreon! Although we primarily rely on the 200 for TROM campaign and the donations that go through it - see tromsite.com/donate - we also have a Patreon patreon.com/c/TROM and Liberapay account liberapay.com/TROM/ .

These accounts were up and running before the 200 for TROM campaign so we decided to not close them. After all we calculate all of the Patreon and Liberapay donations towards the 200 for TROM campaign.

Thank you to everyone who supports our project!

A busy session today with all sorts going on! Here's a selection:

We had an old USB keyboard which was awfully dirty. It had sticky and broken keys. Christopher took it home, bathed it in a cleaning solution and allowed it to dry. He then found a canny way to fixed the broken enter key.
Mohammed is a refugee from Iraq seeking asylum in this country. He is interested in learning web development. We are still working towards formal courses so, for the time being, we are offering him 1 hour 1-to-1 sessions learning HTML to start with. A laptop would help Mohammed in various ways. We provided one to him which had kindly been donated by one of our members' Mum. We refurbished the laptop and installed it with the empowering Linux Mint instead of Windows.

A great session and pleased to be serving the Swindon community!!



Many thanks to Joshua for becoming our new 200 for TROM supporter! This is so awesome to see people supporting TROM! tromsite.com/donate - We run many services and have a lot of original content that is trade-free for everyone.
