- Terwijl we zelf met een extreemrechts kabinet zitten wat dikke vrienden wil blijven met deze fascistische staat;
- Terwijl we in Nederland en vele andere Europese landen doen alsof wij helemaal anders zijn;
- Terwijl we allemaal weten dat Wilders precies hetzelfde van plan is;
- Terwijl extreemrechts enorm is gegroeid dankzij de collaboratie door VVD en NSC, en het gedogen door alle andere partijen en media ("laten we ze behandelen als een normale partij") ;
- Terwijl de collaboratie en normalisering van fascisme in mainstream media alleen maar in een stroomversnelling is gekomen, zelfs al zien we allemaal aankomen dat Schreeuwwitje II net zo heftig zal willen zijn als Trump II;
Blijft één ding waar:
Alleen doordat mensen bij voorbaat gehoorzamen, krijgen dictators macht.
Gehoorzaam niet.
Weiger collaboratie, ook in Nederland.

search.trom.tf/ was moved to our secondary server to avoid future problems with the hosting that warned us against recently about a kind of "abuse" - We think might have been the search engine that probes the searx instance list when doing a search. Will see.
But for now the TROM Search works as usual only that it has been moved to a different server.

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.

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.

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?

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.
If you think in layers, speak in symbols, or feel reality cracking—let’s connect.
#WishGreen #ConsciousCreator #Fediverse #TROM #OpenMinds #TruthSeekers #DigitalRoots
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!
