Working from the motorhome on TROMjaro while watching a documentary on a projector, just like I used to do back in the days in my room :D
So cool I made the motorhome so comfy :).
Planning to release a new TROMjaro ISO tomorrow. And then to focus on writing for the TROM video Series.
I've spent a week here:
Now I am still in the mountains but a different place with a nice view:
Trying to reboot myself and TROM :) - so far so good. Excited to try and make a video series.
I live with very little money, maybe 500 Euros a month everything included (food, fuel, internet...). I have an old projector, a 260 Euros second hand thinkpad, and a Pixel 6a with Graphene OS that Aaron gave me :). And I love living cheap and with less.
Thats a way to get detached bit by bit from the trade society.

In a wold where everyone is tired, the easiest is to fall asleep.
Stay sharp and alert people! It is hard, but it may be even harder to wake up from a deep sleep.
That's what I'm trying with all of the projects I do - tiotrom.com/projects/ - keep myself sane and awake.
Sure, not many people get to read the books I wrote, or use the tools I made, or watch the videos I created. But I do these for me first, and the rest second. That's how I keep myself from not sleeping. Is not easy, but what's the alternative!?

TROM II: A Message to the Aliens (documentary)
We live in a world where everyone is busy, everyone is consumed, everyone seems confused. Money, social credits, ads, data collection, prices and billionaires. Climate change? Who cares! A one-marb...videos.trom.tf

I agree that Peertube loses something good about centralization: a way to search the entire Peertube network. I think joinpeertube.org/browse-conten… does that well tho. And every instance can enable global searches like we do with videos.trom.tf - tho this is a general issue with decentralization and even these global searches will not search through all of the content.
One server needs to discover another and its contents in order to be aware of them. But this technology I think is still in its early stages and looking at how much Peertube evolved over the past 2-3 years it gives me hope that there will be better solutions for this.
I like the idea of grayjay.app/ where you are following "creators" and not channels. Can be Youtube, Peertube, or whatever. The fediverse needs to be integrated with the other platforms like this through some sort of app maybe....
PeerTube's own Sepia Search is trying to cover having a single search system in one place. It uses a blocklist system to screen out bad content when it's reported.
I'm trying to do my own single place to discover content at fedi.video but using an allowlist system instead, so I only allow accounts to appear on the site if I manually approve them.
These are the two ways of providing a unified search for discovery, I think there's a place for both?
I think if I'd live 678 years I would never get bored and I would have new projects to do all the time. I feel like I want to do a lot. And I do a lot every day, but the days are too short for my motivation and drive. The weeks, the months, are flying by so fast. The years, still more ahead than behind, but soon they will balance, and then you'll ride the ones ahead. But it's all about making the best of this ride, even tho too short.
This year we have a motorhome, very little money, and a lot of plans.
Make sure you follow us on Peertube videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide… - we will go chase the darkest skies in Spain, meet with some wonderful friends from the project, volunteer, and do a lot.

We now have a Wishlist for our TROMhome project because we are broke and if anyone wants to help they can directly do so. Here tromhome.com/#wishlist
For example we need to put a satellite dish (a Starlink Mini) so that I can keep our servers updated, do backups, upload our TROMjaro ISOs from the middle of nowhere, and in general be available online to help with the TROM projects. We need it specifically for my work on TROM.
So if anyone can help we have a GoFundMe for it gofundme.com/f/help-us-get-a-s… (450 Euros). I hate that they are putting satellites into the orbit, but we have no better option in Europe. The monthly fee of 72 Euros is also gigantic for us, but again I need an unlimited Internet access...
If anyone can help that'd be fantastic. If not is ok we will buy it eventually.
Thank you in advance! :)

Dont Worry, We are Fucked! videos.trom.tf/w/tn5h6Q6VK5QjK…
This is a recording I did after we finished filming for the TROM 2 documentary. I wanted to compress all of my thoughts in one go, one recording. And this rant is more than relevant today when it seems this world is fast slipping into idiocracy. If you did not see our TROM 2 documentary I recommend you better watch that instead of this video - tromsite.com/documentaries/tro…
In essence I think that the human society has dug its own grave so deep, it is likely we cannot save it from a total failure. However, if you have the patience to watch the entire rant, you will see that despite this negativity I am still positively active with sane and nice projects and I will continue to do so.
If the world is fucked, it does not mean I, or you, have to be fucked and complete idiots, or to not care about the world.

I am trying to do some work from the motorhome for TROM and WebApe...I eat GB like a blue whale eats plankton. :D - I've put 100GB on my phone, using it as a hotspot. I have 50GB left now. After a few days...
This is why when we come back in January and start to live full time in the motorhome we will probably put a satellite internet with an unlimited plan. Mobile plans suck - only available per tribe....and in Europe, living in a motorhome, makes 0 sense.
We've also ordered 260W more of solar panels. We already have 260W on the roof that we put ourselves. Plus a new 1280W lifepo4 lithium battery. We decided to have enough power and be fully broke. It is what it is.
But feels great to get back online bit by bit. Doing my "normal" work. And doing it from here:

Likewise. And I can really appreciate what you mean with the different dog/wolf impulses. I have both 😅
Wishing you both the best of luck with it! 🤗

TROMhome:
This is our new, and kinda personal, project tromhome.com/
Although it is also about TROM.
This will be our home and it will take us to many new places, meeting many new people and projects. We will talk to people about TROM, try to organize talks and meetings, volunteer for all sorts of trade-free projects, and make videos about all of our adventures.
That’s the plan at least 😀 !
We have released a fundraiser to help us a bit if possible. See gofundme.com/f/help-us-get-the…

in reply to Tio • • •Wow man I love that it supports different colors, disco mode!
BTW, do you have to use their proprietary app to control the lights?

in reply to Tio • • •It's good you have a remote for it, maybe you could've shown it in the video I'm curious how it looks.
And yeah if you can connect via an app then it uses Bluetooth I assume, unless you have an IR blaster on your phone.

in reply to Rokosun • •This is the remote
A super simple one. And yah the app connects via bluetooth.
