Tomorrow we are at ZDay in Prague. Tio will present TROM with the focus on why trade is the origin of most problems and why creating trade-free goods and services is so crucial.


We will try to post photos and videos over here to our Friendica page. So stay tuned!

It makes me so happy when I see new people donating to our 200 For TROM campaign tromsite.com/donate/ :) - even if we still need a lot more to achieve the goal, I feel hopeful because donating 5 Euros a month is not that much and this can be sustainable for a long long time.

If you use any of our TROM.tf services, or TROMjaro, or VideoNeat, or enjoy the content that we do via TROM and can support us with 5 Euros a month, it would be amazing!

You know we are running out of disk space for TROM.tf so I will have to move Peertube to an object storage solution soon, and that would cost me a few bucks a month and a lot of time perfecting it. So even 2-3 people donating 5 Euros a month can pay for this big change that would also allow us to increase the quota for our TROM Files for instance.

If you can, do it please. If not, at least a share could help ;)

TROM II is now fully translated into Romanian thanks to @Georgi who worked like crazy for the past months to do it.


It is particularly difficult to translate into Romanian because this language comes in 2 main flavors: the official language and the language that people normally speak. And there can be a big difference between the two.

Georgi tried as much as possible to translate in a way that people talk and not in this official robot-like way. She used Kdenlive for the entire translation process.

Huge amount of work!

Tio:

I kinda finished the presentation for ZDay! :) Am happy with it. Around 40 minutes long and I tried to make it fun and interesting and put things in a different perspective from what I did in our previous TROM materials. So even those familiar with TROM may find it, I hope, interesting.


75 slides, and a lot of animated stuff :). I LOVE LibreOffice Presentations. Trade-Free software at its best. You can make some really cool presentations with it.

Half the talk will be about what our society is made of. You know, trade...and how it influences everything. The other half is about our trade-free approach. I will also explain The Fediverse, will talk about TROMjaro and our other tools.

These days I need to get ready for the trip. How awesome that I now have a good laptop that I can take with me, thanks mostly to Roma and Gui who donated money so that I can buy it. I definitely use it mostly for TROM.

That's all. I kinda struggled with this presentation and I worked on it quite a lot. But now that it is done I am relieved ;).

Welcome to planet Earth:

Instead of us killing the cancer cells, or explore the Earth and outer space, humans are dragged into pointless conflicts that in the end amount to nothing. Shame!

Absolutely mindblowing fuckup it is.. Indeed the human imagination's so powerful to invent fictious values to justify the unreasonable conflicts, instead of using all its potential to make unimaginable progress and conquer new horizons.
in reply to Roma

@esh the money, resources, time, energy and most of all the human lives we spend on wars, if only we put the same kinda effort into doing something good and positive for the world....... *smh*

So.... um, yeah I had to code on my mobile 'cause my laptop broke, lol 😅 Not really the cleanest code ever but I'll improve it 🙃 Also just take a look at #Tromjaro and see how much it has grown over the years! I like how @tio pays attention to every little detail of how an average nontechnical person uses Linux, where they get confused, etc and try to improve/fix everything he can - what you end up with is not a perfect distro but one with a much better UX than most.

TROMjaro 12.08.2023 (big update, many changes) forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-…

If people think that TROMjaro is "just another distro" then they don't know what they are talking about. Here's a sample of what we pushed recently to make the desktop experience better than most "distros" that I know, perhaps there is none that deals with theming and HiDPI, and fonts, and consistency and more in a better way than TROMjaro.

You know I watched one of the latest videos from @Nick @ The Linux Experiment where he talks about theming the Flatpaks. So complicated for the average user. Guess what!? We do it better and automatically, and we also sync GTK with QT, and fonts, and icons. If only more people would take a serious look at TROMjaro and by all means use the changes we made for your distro!

Give TROMjaro a try ;)

As of today I am a certified diver :) . Open Water Diver. The first level, but still, awesome. And actually I got the course for free kinda, which is great. Very nice people. Friends of Sasha :). I am very happy that I can go dive more now. And I will have to check for my stomach health issues more but as long as I control my diet all should be fine.

To be underwater and breath, is such an amazing feeling. The closest you get to flying. And last dive we saw some very cool sponges, and other creatures. Next time I'll try to get the gopro and record some stuff. Humans should do these things for free, so they understand more about our place on this planet.

I am not sure what you are even trying to hint at. The fact that climate change may be responsible for these high and low extremes?

Oh there we go....I could sense the stupidity, the smell was in the air, I just needed a confirmation. Ok then, please ignore reality, go on your own adventure. If you push more I'll just block you.

The biggest achievement for me via TROM, is by far the few friends that I made because of the project. These humans are so rare and wonderful I can't even explain it. Scientifically minded, kind, fun, interesting. They are so friendly and comfortable to be around. I do not think TROM has the power to change the world, and I hope I am wrong and I will keep on trying, BUT TROM has changed my life completely.

One decision, 13 years ago. And now I have the best friends in the world.

For me it was totally worth it and unexpected. And I am sure I will meet more of these wonderful brains.

In June 20, 2023, a documentary miniseries called TROM II was published on #Peertube, making it the first feature-length film to ever be released exclusively on the #Fediverse. Question is, were you aware of this documentary before?

Ok so I see that the official Libreddit is shutting down github.com/libreddit/libreddit… because of Reddit's API changes. Teddit or other ones are also dead. You know, in a way for me personally I think this is positive because lately I spent too much time on Reddit via Teddit. I never used Reddit before Teddit. So yeah, for me it is a better thing. I don't need to see the oddities of the world so much haha. Better focus on other things.
