A system of dust/asteroid belts around a young star Fomalhaut in ~25 ly away from the Sun. With help of JWT's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) we now can see all the inner belts and unlike our Solar system it has 3 visible dust/asteroid belts in sum. How cool is that?

Webb Looks for Fomalhaut’s Asteroid Belt and Finds Much More
Astronomers used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to image the warm dust around a nearby young star, Fomalhaut, in order to study the first asteroid belt ever seen outside of our solar system in infrared light.Jamie Adkins (NASA)

If you walk and randomly encounter somebody you know, you can easily have a chat and even a coffee or something
While you’re driving? At best you wave hands.

I think you meant to say big here

Also, I'm really surprised to see so many different languages here, never knew there are this many translators for TROM who speak such diverse languages. Anyway, I'm happy to see people helping out like this 🙂

And it boggles my mind to think that all those good quality food would've gone to waste if it wasn't for organizations like this. 40% of all food produced in the world is lost in one way or another?! Now that is a hauntingly high number, we should try to reduce it as much as possible. Thank you Dima for finding such organizations, helping them, and shining a light on them through your videos.

@Rokosun Thank you !
It's indeed crazy how much food are wasted. Yeah about 40%. Interesting fact that 60% out of those 40% are wasted in households. That was huge discovery for me, i was sure that supermarkets and production facilities waste the most. Which was true some time ago, but now it's changed.

Wow that screenshot is lit ! 🔥 Imma share that on my mastodon account 😁
> I hope you won't get too border by the documentary.
Don't worry I won't get bored by it, lol 😄 I'm actually really curious about it, curious to see all of you and hear your interviews & personal stories, curious to see how you weave these interviews together with facts and knowledge about our world to create an engaging story, curious to see how you did the music, editing, and other audiovisual effects using FOSS softwares like kdenlive, inkscape, krita, etc. Unlike most other documentaries this one was made by the work of one single person, so I'll keep that in mind while watching, to really appreciate your effort 😀

We could relatively easy restore the natural environment and biodiversity of our beautiful Planet, rewind back at least some of the impact of the anthropogenic intervention, if there would be more people free of the constant trading for their lifes out there. Instead of spending their precious time wasted on figuring out dull and manipulative ways to sell the shit or themselves, more and more of these people might choose to participate and would come up with ingenious ways to ACTUALLY make a difference, fullfil the Human unique potentials at its max..

Honestly there's a lot of these little #UX issues in #Linux that I haven't noticed before until I started working for TROMjaro, and I'm glad we were able to fix some of those issues ourselves. I think maybe part of the reason why you notice such things is because you let your parents, sister & wife use it, so just by observing how your family use TROMjaro you can infer which areas can be confusing for normal everyday people who lacks the technical know-how.

By the way I love these posts of your Roma! Keep on being a human. Share your thoughts more often too 😀
And yes, Titan is one of the most earth-like place that we know of, in terms of how it looks like: clouds, rain, mountains, lakes and rivers. But all methane. Which makes you wonder....can a different life based on methane have evolved there? We should focus on these mind blowing mysteries, help send some probes there, enjoy these pieces of knowledge, and so forth. I wish our species was intelligent.

I personally admire an ability to choose between literally dozens of the ways to communicate by selecting specific implementation like Mastodon, Friendica, Pleroma, etc. with all the different ways to organize news feeds, size of the messages, etc. and after all staying connected with all your peeps which may choose another project to stick with and all of that because of the unified protocol. This is fuckin amazing and liberating..

Our problems might have been solved by engineering
UPD: This video should be considered as an illustration of the interesting engineering ideas and as a possibility to questionize a structure and efficiency of the existing cities, towns, villages and not in any circumstances as a project to be supported or invested in, since it might be just yet another scammy project promising "the revolution" but without any real intention to do it.

Unfortunately many companies are very good to lure us in, and I got sucked into a bunch of these too...impractical, money oriented, scams. I only recently found out about the above one, but sounds like many other projects I've heard of.
Anyway, if you have the time also watch the video I sent you.
I agree with what you said, but I am skeptical about this "LINE" thing.
