We need to pay for the yearly backups for all of our services and content - gofundme.com/f/paying-for-the-…

This means all of our TROM.tf services (friendica, peertube, nextcloud, etc.), all of our websites like tromsite.com, videoneat.com, tromjaro.com, and so on.

We only need 230 Euros to cover another year of backups. Please if you can help out since we are underfunded and cannot afford to pay for them.

The payment is yearly. We need to pay by the end of this month (March).

Thanks a bunch!

This is what we did before starting our adventure (lenghty update) - videos.trom.tf/w/ivyg4KLX2LVmD…

We know this is a very lenghty update but we wanted to showcase what we did for the past 2 months to prepare for our adventure. We put more batteries, more solar panels, new mattress and more! 😃

hm an AC means several things: first you plan to go to very hot areas. Hot areas are usually full of people in Europe. So we avoid that. Second an AC unit will consume a ton of energy....probably from 500 to 1000W. And that is hard to achieve with just solar panels and batteries for a small motorhome like ours. But we will consider for sure....

Here is a wonderful documentary: Solar System with Brian Cox videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

Really well made and a lot of new info even for me and I watch a shit load of these documentaries :)

Again just the normal Stable updates but this time we switcher to kernel 6.12. For the current TROMjaro users please open the “Kernel” app, go to Kernel find the 6.12 an click install: Now reboot and it should use the new kernel automatically.

We are in the south of Spain now and we will take it easy. We drive like 60km every other day, so we can get to see some nice places and relax more.

And as much as I like cool places, I also LOVE to stay somewhere where we have access to water/amenities for the motorhome, where is no one, and is nice enough so I can focus on my computer work!

We here now:

Around Cordoba. We will stay for a few days in this place because there is a storm coming to the entire Spain and there will be lots of rain. So we need a safe place to be in.

We have our batteries quite full, the fridge is full, water infinite, unlimited satellite internet. And now I am working on TROMjaro, will add new stuff to VideoNeat, and will work to make more videos for TROMhome. For me, this is super relaxing. :)

Hollywoodgate - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

Another one of those documentaries that you feel like they are not real. Must be a dark comedy instead. The human brain can be so brilliant and yet so primitive...

On top of our custom themes now our Friendica (social.trom.tf) also has this BookFace theme for those who want a more "facebook" like experience in terms of looks.

So go to settings/display and choose your own theme.

Our updated forum, finally! - forum.tromjaro.com/t/our-updat…

This is a very short post to tell you that we have finally updated our Discourse forum to the latest. For the past year (or more) the Yunohost package for Discourse (what we use) was quite broken and we ended up having an entire separate server just or the forum since we could not update the server itself because of it. Therefore we had an old forum on an old server.

Now we managed to do some gymnastics and move it to our main server and update it. Finally! From now on I hope there will be no more such issues.

I was willing to even give up on all of our forum posts, accounts and comments just to be able to update it and not pay for a separate server for it.

But now all is good. All is fixed apparently.

Many thanks to the folks from Yunohost for the work that they do! And to those who made the Discourse software!

used to pump ours out of a garden sprinkler - smelled kinda bad if it'd been sitting in the tank for awhile.
Solution is sub-surface drip irrigation line made for grey water. Put a couple of filters in prior to the underground pipe to prevent blockages - no smell, no having to move the sprinkler around, green lawn. Using detergent without sodium is important.

The view from our motorhome today:

Yeah I got a headache driving here because it took us 6 hours to also stop buy food, put gas, etc., But man....what a fucking view...

Before this place we stayed in another one, so close to nature. We stayed for 3 days because we liked it so much...

Went for a long hike through the mountains and some waterfalls :)

We will publish videos about all of these only on our Peertube channel - videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide… - no BS youtube. Straight to Peertube! :)

From tomorrow on we will meet with some of the most wonderful TROM friends in the south-ish of Spain :). So excited to see @Roma and @aaron

I really liked the past few days with the motorhome...thats what I want: nature, relax, dont rush, calmness....

I am having a little meltdown :D - videos.trom.tf/w/pfi5Mihd5VEVx…

Well....this is a big change for me and I am still trying to adapt. I cannot say for sure that this is for me, but I am really trying.

Living in a motorhome is no small feat, I don't think I could live this lifestyle even tho I like the idea of being able to travel with your home. Having to deal with water would be my biggest hurdle for sure, I need lots of water lol 😂

I bet Sasha loves it tho, she can finally travel again 😄 And hopefully you can adapt over time let's see..... 🤞

Motorhome DONE (7): The 3.2 meters long object we could not do without :) - videos.trom.tf/w/rc4GYZuXuhx4d…

We needed a ladder because the one that is attached to the motorhome is really not that good and useful. This is the last video in this series of "motorhome done", just to complete the tour 😃. Next videos will be a lot more interesting 😃.

Motorhome DONE (7): How do we pee and poo :) - videos.trom.tf/w/xf3AF8RhmUzSA…

Ok so this can be a challenge in a motorhome but we think we found a good way to deal with the toilet situation. We are using a "dry" cheap toilet and so far so great!

Moon and Mars. A few hours ago :)

With a Pixel 4a and a Celestron SLT 130 telescope. Nothing fancy.
