Now that I got my driving license, after 8 months of torture, I can plan ahead.
Ideally for the next 2 or so months I will work a few days a week in cleaning to make some money for the motorhome, then try to finish the 2 articles/videos/books I am working on right now, Culture Cancer and one about Tests in general, this idea that you can test people to see if they can drive, be doctors, or whatever. This livestock-mentality that in many cases may be full of bullshit. Oh and the one about The Internet.
I am so happy and relieved to get over this bullshit driving license thing. Now I can focus on something else. I will push on TROMing :) for sure. May be very slow for these next months since we are busy with the "making money for a motorhome" project, but TROM is not just here to stay, it is here to become more than it is today. We have lots to talk about and lots to do with the project. I wrote quite a bit for the Culture Cancer and gathered quite a bit of info about the other books/articles/videos, whatever they end up in the end.
Oh wow I passed the driving exam and I finally got my driving license. After 8 months...fucking hell I want to never hear about driving schools in my life. I am so relieved. And so much to learn from this experience about how trade has its influence everywhere. Now, focus on other things! Finally!
haha honestly is all bout luck....I was lucky I was the last one for this season basically, and the examiner was in a good mood. Trust me, the rest of the students know how to drive as good as me, yet most fail.... Fucked up
Friday I have the driving exam. I started in December last year...I payed1.620 Euros so far. It has been a terrible experience. You know when I tell people that this was insanity, they think that "well you have to learn how to drive...it is of course difficult." and I want to punch them in the face. I would love for them to experience what we experience here. Because this is not your normal "driving school". This is the torture school that most people fail from the first time. And it is no wonder why.
Anyway, I gathered lots of info and videos ;), and I'll make an article/video about it all. I do not think that I can pass this exam, but I know some parts of Spain where you go and likely pass it - much easier than here.
At this point I, and the rest of the students, know how to drive safer than most drivers that we see drive alongside us, since no one here uses the blinkers, no one stops at the stop signs, everyone drives over the straight lines.... So it is a matter of being lucky to pass the exam. For the examiner to be in a good mood, for the route that they choose f

I know students who tried to pass the exam 4 times by now, others gave the fuck up despite having 20+ years of driving experience.
So let's see. Lucky or not lucky.
But it is so frustrating to see what the "most intelligent species in the universe" have done with their BS society. If they wanted to teach their kind to drive these boxes on wheels, they would have done it entirely differently than how they do it today. But this is not the incentive. They want to make money. Trade. And thus jobs, and thus bullshit practices and methods. And so a bullshit society of traders.
Ok, rant done haha. I have 2 more hours of practice tomorrow, then the day after I want for this to end somehow even if I fail the exam, which most likely will. I will go somewhere else to do the exam if I fail, I think that's the best approach. Enough time and money wasted here.
Oh man it is so awful you'll see when I'll make that video/article how insane it is. 0 people with a driving license would pass this exam I am 100% sure. I've seen a video with a driving instructor from somewhere else taking an exam simulation in the area where we also do, and he was also confused and would have failed haha. So yah will see tomorrow how it goes, but regardless I need a fucking break from this shit.
We now have 6 servers dedicated to transcoding/transcribing our Peertube videos videos.trom.tf - thanks to @Alexio who is providing 4 of them! Peertube is now a complete replacement for Youtube and I will make sure to push it a lot more in terms of use and promotion! We need to get people to use it, else without content, it won't go anywhere....
I am unsure. We are using the default configs for Peertube. No custom profile added to the transcoding. Usually it converts a video in as much time as the video is. So 1h video transcode in 1h. But since multiple runners convert it, that means 2 resolutions in 1h plus auto-transcription. So you think we can get better results with a custom transcoding profile?
We are dedicating around 2 CPUs per runner/server.
PEERTUBE FEEDBACK, MY HABITS / USAGE PROBLEMS... GO ALEXIO FOR FIX!
Sensitive content
I was thinking about this today after thinking "why don't I use PeerTube, I'm so against the commercial tube" and basically it's a few small/big things
1/ Slow interface 1a Interface as a whole slower (on older system at least) 1b Font seems to be trying something different -ends up displaying fuzzy or like too much sun is shining on it - perhaps it's trying a clearer/truetype style font or something newer to display text in different way than just standard text. Text should be the most solid thing even on earliest browsers - I can't read it so an attempt to have a clearer font (or whatever it is) shouldn't even be risked - keep it simple text!...
2/ Invidious filters YouTube really well - so ever since that came along and solidly filtered it's adverts, it's google code and allows download it like OK! - Still contact google video I see but it long solved the many offending parts
Overal these accumulative things and
2a YouTube has history / headstart on content and who uses it 2b even experts here don't use it or like me did but the instance went away twice / was more experimental more them 2c I hate the video system - it should be more like ftp/sft which Debian still uses - you can rename videos or files INSTANTLY - with peertube it's like editing another layer like a library record rather than file itself which I'd really recommend - connect with client, drap and drop videos done! Peertube is manual typing like library records - sucks, don't even need that meta and if you notice no many fill it in - name already people are meticulous about. 2d I remember bugs which maybe fixed but you can try uploading a video with a filename too long and it does all the work uploading but at the end say "filename too long" etc and that is crap / I wasted so much time 2e AND the error message comes up for 2 secs so if you're away you just come back to a screen where it's back to square one and didn't see the quick-flash error and have no idea... I did many files again not even realising an error message comes up for only 2 secs (please test and fix Alexio, you have the attention to detail I know). 2e Frama etc and producers we don't really hear from, so outreach to fans would be ideal - like to ask me to add music or remix or something (anything) else it does really well but not connected to anyone. The really good / professional movements get people involved with what THE PEOPLE love to do and well that's an investment (not many want to do) - give people what to do, add wish-list, add reasons to us why to use PeerTube, not just alternative if you have nothing else better to do... (kind of that is how it is now) Recruit us more and shout / scout us more!
SUMMARY I guess those are main reasons like a small survey fill in and why I haven't use it apart from twice maybe! Just now for the FreeSoft day. But you can ask more if you want...
- I really love that it has torrent technology and that is "for the way" in many things but can't think how to use it with no mass
- So the this new tube taking over old tube (filtered by @invidious /
Google sucks now. Here's why.

Peertube is actually extremely fast am not sure why you may experience slowness. It is many times faster than youtube in terms of loading the interface (website itself). I also cannot see any issues with the font...
The way Peertube renames videos I think is all fine and probably necessary. Why would you need to upload the videos via ftp? That's old, insecure, nonreliable. Upload them via the Pertube interface and let Peertube convert the videos, create thumbnails, even transcriptions. Works wonders.
Framasoft posts regular updates. Follow them on Fedi or follow their News joinpeertube.org/news - I think they do great in terms of communication. They also have a wish-list where people can submit ideas and some already got implemented.
I'm happy with that reply while some reservations about all the the transcoding/transcribing you have to do for all those #Peertube videos when they could be merely copied since people already have the video file (!!).
Sensitive content
Was in two minds to send this.. so I sent all of it,,, needs cutting down and generally realising from me why I write so much...
The rest is too much detail from the CW title so Tio my thanks, no need read. Can do but it will cost you a lot long-reading and I duplicate points so maybe long reply - upto you pull that eject cord now! (recommended) ✈️
========================
So I'm happy with that reply while some reservations about all the the transcoding/transcribing you have to do for all those #Peertube videos when they could be merely copied (!!). IMAGINE... just copy! (will be different but has benefits too).
Almost like #blockchain or #bitcoin the minting or re-processing a of what is already is a video file and redoing each video to get it onto a system is pretty fucking crazy! Ok makes it uniform and super-fast but you kill the video dude! I can see some checks etc might needed but with original files but just leave as it with most browser playing it all. At some point these files probably disappears so saving these proves saves the ditching and disposal phase (I did about 30 files and my instance went for example - so glad I didn't do more - could see it all coming - ditched) and also moves etc. And energy goes with it! I think re-doing things is little gain unless for really specific projects or uses. Not the every day trashy video or re-up of the same thing. Copy would save that and allow people while saving streaming altogether perhaps even limiting things.
For my uses and this whole text is about these streaming features that are tied to consumption of planet and so consciously reducing = less damage and less asking people connected to the damage [ Google / YouTube ] is do the damage for us. we need not copy for all vids either, and stream even less).
And so a native protocol works better for all that because it's where we came from and it worked until expectation and hardware skyrocket it up at the expense of it's fuel combustion. The ecological consideration *storing* and having *a variety of formats* too I think is the right balance and access type. This can include all the files I have about a film in original downloaded copy + text, various sub's, thumbs, notes, edits, etc - which are super interesting adn exactly like a person would have on their own hard disk and want to copy for you / give others as basic list interface + download link represented as the filename to itself to click - I mean how frigging effective is that! List of filenames as the link! link text, simple tree, directories wow! :)
Streaming overall I'd say is ecologically unfriendly and a bloat type of invention... ...taking advantage of the invisible packets / hardware and tech constantly being upgraded I'm sure behind our backs at googleplexes or from china hardware which can all have it's specific uses in the end but the ways it's born and run, and then en-masse given to lesser-skilled people for almost common-reckless use has reduced it's effectivity for so many videos and pressed the gas more unnecessarily on the Earth. Samples and previews for the way or streaming 5mins to check parts of it only.
?? Computers non-stop is also a bit sick (imagine having it on a home, ok you do but hopefully that's because you are serving others, else does everyone not switch off at night???). Like that in itself is a bit excess / inconsiderate / reckless to have it on always.
Meanwhile storage is still doable and more careful for downloading / put limits on users storage also or encouraging rewatching things. My friends and I'm sure others just stream the same audio tracks over and over and really is such a waste. Video's as music and more is probably the same.
So I think reverting back is inevitable as constantly 'upgrades' is already crazy sterioded how much traffic moves for arguably entertainment when we could adjust that to education or better uses... so to undo this somewhat by taking stream away or limiting it undoes the damage created by the fast-food American #BigTech that has basically done it for us as an install and allowed existence of streaming to do as fast food - so this is the conscious choice to eat less or eat differently, which is what many people look for as #climatechange or whatever and "being the change" - basically means de-installing / downgrades / taking off features as direct account for what demands and eats more.
You can't drive a Lamborghini and ignore the consumption (unless you ignore consumption and out-source your processing to America - which in turn render water useless and warm etc etc ranty rant but true) which is why "copy" would save a hell of a lot processing (back to the first point and CW title). You are effectively queuing & paying constantly as a whole somewhat-extra process! And some part of me thinks you are proud of that like it's good work!
============================================== THE ECOLOGICAL IMPACT IS MASSIVE AND IMPORTANT ============================================== I also noticed Tio you didn't respond to this ecological side and "people work" that I mentioned. I think you not mentioning IS the answer and saw it before in your work. No big judgement :) <---is a big lie ! We all stick to what we like, fast cars and American Pie online. So maybe we can leave it there and I'm not not asking you to respond because anyway you quite Aced everything else and did well so I'm happy for that!
So for now it feels like I wrote too much and should not go too deep or off topic (as I think I probably have). So it's not your fault if ecology and is not your thing. You covered you reply quite well which is a skill and it was in the video context to start with which maybe now I added in the less-streaming / storage context.
I tend to write longer which might not be your thing also... so consider I'm practising for myself or others that want to chip in also on points.
======================= QUESTION AND EXAMPLES =======================
Is it's possible to upload in batches (is it possible in PeerTube?) let me know - that one by one (lol!) is s killer.
The rest is just FYI / Optional reading:
Two interfaces I'm thinking of that works for me as contrast is below. The demand on streaming everything is still too rich/costly for us all, so downloading from storage like Debian do is still my way, asking the user to choose better / more wisely or read, check the thumbs or sample file first.
So 2 variations of storage n' stream = archive.org and debian's ftp:
Rather than demanding "always on" magic for everything to work all the time (which I think cost the planet tons) I think I'll settle for storage + less layers + less "adding" filenames and pictures etc lol. Unless upload has changed majorly since 2years ago it's not very useful as basic form to load files (maybe it has drag and drop finally?!). Maybe I'll ask the others for opinion on that so you can continue your work Tio.
Like I said too deep, specific and long, so I say thank you for now.
Thanks again.
#AI side note: Not sure I want the AI tool to scan my personal videos to make subtitles. Is that optional / automatic? How / who does it use for that? Do you care? Tell the truth and say no I don't care :)
I'm happy with that reply while some reservations about all the the transcoding/transcribing you have to do for all those #Peertube videos when they could be merely copied since people already have the video file (!!) UPDATED THE HORRIBLE GRAMMAR!

The rest is too much detail by feels there are few solid points that 'could' change the whole game of video and energy / time exchange happening.
========================
So I'm happy with that reply while some reservations about all the the transcoding/transcribing you have to do for all those #Peertube videos when they could be merely copied (!!). IMAGINE... just copy! (will be different but has benefits too).
Almost like #blockchain or #bitcoin, the minting or re-processing of what is was already video file by users and redoing each video online to get it onto a system is pretty fucking crazy! Ok the new video file makes it uniform and super-fast but you have killed the video and what energy was made into the original video is somewhat wasted being re-done! So just leaving video files "as is" and means it will almost surely play in browser or media player the same way!
And at some point we can consider these files probably disappears (instances run out of money, move domains, remove users etc() so it proves worthy not to invest so much energy into the eventual ditching / purging of files. To make processes and energy less disposable.
I remember on PeerTube did about 30 files (1 by 1, added text carefully and everything) and my instance went - I was glad I didn't do any more there - too much investment for little gain - and a text file would have been better so I could re-use it in future for uploading again somewhere else,. So now we can see it all coming (if we didn't know before how disposable online is) and also naturally life of users / projects going and coming like short-lived websites.
So the energy goes with it is pretty bad re-doing things for little gain unless for really specific projects or uses needing a new file + processing per file. If we had to pay personally for this we would not want to setup another system just to re-code existing mostl-disposable or video found on YouTube (as our backup let's say).
The every day trashy video or re-up of the same thing is just not worth throwing money / time into.
Copying video would save that and allow people to get file, while saving the whole streaming things altogether perhaps have a limited service.
For my uses and sentiments of energy investment means these streaming features are directly tied to consumption of the planet by reprocessing existing things on the planet! And so consciously reducing = less damage and less asking people to be connected to the damage [ less Amazon AWS and Cloudflare space all of which are getting more evil or bigger throwing moeny at it] We need to stream even less than have copies.
============ NEXT MAIN POINT ============
And so a native protocol works better for all that because it's where we (and all servers) came from and have as base layer. FTP worked before, until expectations and hardware skyrocketed up expectations and expense - like petrol / fuel combustion - kind of more demanding consumption / processing for the same files!
STORING VARIOUS FORMATS WITH FILMS Storing other formats with video file I think is also the right balance. The text file you can read instantly in browser as a readme type file + see the other files I have about a film in *original downloaded copy*. I know stream has it's uses but download and play might be actually faster sometimes too! So it's like paying for convenience again.
Adding the text, various sub's, thumbs, notes, edits, etc - are super interesting and exactly like a person would have on their own hard disk already and want to copy for you / give others. Drag and drop - get asic list interface + download link as the filename - I mean how frigging effective is that to auto-list and auto-link it all INSTANTLY after upload! List of filenames... Simple directories... view various files in browser... wow! :)
STREAMING NO MORE - AS CONSCIOUS THING? Streaming overall I'd say is ecologically unfriendly and a bloat type of invention... ...taking advantage of the invisible packets / hardware and BIGtech and pretending to be able to do it at invisible cost. I'm sure behind our backs at Googleplexes and the China hardware it's constantly upgraded, water consumption increased, electricity etc. Not just small operation BUT MASSIVE.
Stream has it's specific uses (live stream for example) but in the end it's born and run on sterioded computing that can't last without burning itself out.
Given en-masse to lesser-skilled people for almost common, reckless use has reduced video steam effectivity for so many videos and pressed the gas more unnecessarily on the Earth 🚗 ... 🏭
Samples and previews "for the way" or streaming 5mins to check parts of it only. Saves the world and encouraged better more-sane distributed practices word-wide.
NON-STOP COMPUTING IS ALSO SOMETHING Computers non-stop is also a bit sick though this pushes it further than all of the above so far ao not saying you have to switch off your computer. But imagine that's how it was before like the tool it was and now it's kinda taken over which no tool should do in the name of balance. Imagine having it on a home and it's on all the time... that can leave a lot of room for error while it's on, OK you probably do have it on and doing stuff 24/ but hopefully that's because you are serving others, else shouldn't everyone not switch off at night and at some point??? It's getting to the stage computers are taking over (somewhat and need to be careful of that) Computing itself has become a bit excess / inconsiderate / reckless and to have it on always allows other actors and external factors into our lives. Spending energy and time local and external as the main leaks not to mention maybe data too.
Meanwhile storage is still doable and more careful for downloading / put limits on users storage also or encouraging re-watching things. My friends and I'm sure others just stream the same audio tracks over and over and really is a waste. Video's as music also the same.
So I think "reverting back" is inevitable as constantly these features and 'upgrades' are already getting crazy sterioded of how much we can move traffic for arguably little gain or just more entertainment for the existing.
We could adjust that or redirect it towards live education or better uses (which include not using it)... so to undo this somewhat by taking stream away or limiting it, it undoes the damage created by the fast-food American 🍔 #BigTech 💻 that has basically done it for us as a simple paid install and allowed existence of streaming / fast food 🍔 - So this is the conscious choice to eat less (you can still eat hamburgers just not for breakfast lunch and dinner) which is what many people look for as #change or #climatechange or whatever that is almost certainly connected #water shortage etc.
"Being the change" - basically means de-installing / downgrades sometimes and taking off features as direct account for what demanded and eat all the energy while we do other things perhaps thinking it doesn't cost to store and stream as it's hard to count that.
================== Lamborghini as energy example / parallel ==================
Basically you can't drive a Lamborghini and ignore the consumption (unless you ignore consumption and out-source your processing to America - which in turn render water useless and warm etc etc ranty rant but true)
This is why "copy" would save a hell of a lot processing (back to the first point and CW title). .
I assume you wouldn't drive a Lambo even if it was given free - why, because it doesn't hold much space, is fragile and demands a lot of care else wastes a lot of money spending on it, have to worry over it so it doesn't break etc... Similar with streaming wit it's consumption, managing it, etc/
Stream uploads are effectively queuing & paying constantly as a extra process somewhat! And some part of me thinks you are proud of that like it's good work and nice toy !
I'd say for live stuff and only like for cinema but not everyday stuff people can download and play locally.
============================================== ECOLOGICAL TOPICS ARE MASSIVE AND IMPORTANT BUT SOME PEOPLE MIGHT NOT GET IT WHICH I MIGHT HAVE TO ACCEPT. ============================================== I also noticed Tio you didn't respond to this ecological side of what I said and "people work" that I mentioned.
I think you *not mentioning* it IS the answer already and saw it before in your work when I mentioned how big files are for little reward. No big judgement :) <---a big lie from me this is do or die life! So we can all stick to what we like, fast cars and American Pie online. 🍔 ⛽ 🛢️
So maybe we can leave it there and I'm not not asking you to respond because anyway you quite Aced everything else and did well so I'm happy for that!
(above paragraph part I wanted to write earlier but got pushed down a bit so imagine I said it earlier)
So for now it feels like I wrote too much and should not go too deep or off topic (as I think I have) but wrote disclaimer to help see it's for the main points perhaps marked with the ============ horizontal lines.
So it's not your fault if ecology is not your thing. You covered you reply quite well which is a skill I don't seem to have (but effort I do have) and it was in the video context to start with which maybe now I have added in the more storage context (so I changed it but think this could be right as conclusion / balance for all points).
I tend to write longer which might not be your thing... so consider I'm practising for myself or others that want to chip in also on points.
======================= QUESTION AND EXAMPLES =======================
Is it's possible with PeerTube to upload / queue video in batches Let me know anyone - One by one (lol!) is a killer and no wonder nobody with serious collection of videos would avoid it!

It's like we have endless space for all these fucking copies!

"Original video file preserved" is good but could be playable directly.
I understand stream makes smaller versions of file, faster to play sometimes, but also many copies of the same per file, is a big trade off (negative maybe overall) and displacement of space / out-sourcing of energy to stream etc etc - a nice try but can't hide the bloat... so again I favour live stream for events mostly.
Overall a "Big or Small" stored download for people to play locally. The rest is Americanised bloat - and I mean SUV style bloat to what other vehicle consumption are - so bigger but only marginally better only in some situations to what we had as data store.
Data stores that did the job universally (1 copy per file without all this transcoding 🔁 and disposable streams 🗑️ lol
Only America or BigOil etc (mostly comes from there) could think of using resources like that 🍔 💻 💻 🍔 no?
You wouldn't do these same things at home even locally - would you?
We have to keep it with a certain thematic else we will be flooded by conspiracy nonsense. That's what we've experience before introducing these limitations. But we are very relaxed when it comes to our thematic. What were the videos you wanted to upload? Our thematic is: science/education/tech in English.
Videos I'd create and upload: - travels and adventures of my wife and me, to link to from my Friendica account - talks on environmental topics given by experts (not by me) - if friends need help with Friendica, I might upload a video showing how to get something done
I understand and agree with the need to prevent conspiracy theories from having a platform. Only those who disagree with mainstream science would call me a conspiracy theorist, such as someone who believes climate change is a hoax, or someone who believes that 15-minute cities are an attempt to restrict freedom of movement.
Oh you should for sure post on our instance. The "thematic" we "impose" is to say that we pretty much accept those kind of videos, but the rest that do not fit, we are going to be more lose about and allow them. For sure your videos can be posted on our instance. So feel free to join!

Even a trailer is horrifying 😱 You don't need a ton of the hollywood horror movies crap to tickle your nerves.. this is right there, happens right under our own feet 😔 What a "civilized" society we live in to treat people like that 😡 Just terrible..
I generally agree with the sentiment that reality is far more interesting than fiction, but horror movies are different tho. Only reason I'm able to enjoy watching horror movies is 'cause I know it's just acting and that the people are safe, but if you show me footage of actual people dying that will make me depressed 💀
Horror is one of those rare genres that's better enjoyed as fiction 😅 'cause real horror is just sad and depressing, none of this shit should be happening 😞
People have transformed politics into a football game. Who wins? Who loses? Let's fight with each other! Be angry, shout, become fanatic!
So everyone loses track of what this is supposed to be about: to organize our species so that we can have a saner society, one that allows us to thrive, feel safe, create, discover.
So fuck the left and right and everything in between. How about the focus is on what we want to do, and make that scientific. Like what makes people less violent? What makes them smarter and calmer? More helpful? Less destructive? Well there are many experts and organizations who can answer these questions, no need for politicians. So bring them forward, let them present their theories and facts. Let's test.
Focus on projects and approaches, instead of individuals and parties.
Like let's make sure people are housed, have access to food and all of their necessitie

Like let's make sure people are housed, have access to food and all of their necessities, and then provide them opportunities to do more: become doctors, engineers, smart and good humans. Isn't that going to benefit us all?
Let's make sure people not only have access to relevant and free education, but time to digest it and use it.
This SHOULD BE SIMPLE! We have what we need to create a paradise on Earth.
But the drug of trade that gave birth to companies, interests, businesses, profit, competition, mindless media, and so forth, have completely blinded the humans. No one has a scientific plan for humans, the species. They all focus on short term gains for their own little tribe/group. That brings them more power, more money, more stuff, more opportunities.
The idiots on planet Earth, busy with their dramas, hate, divisions, borders, competition. While they have global problems and common needs.
Their most popular news and activities should be about the wonderful rock they are lucky to be on. The creatures, the places, themselves. There are entire universes inside all of us. Inside even a single cell. There are endless stars and planets out there.
Intelligent species you say!?
Show must go on! The Caesar Roman general was nearly assassinated so now we can gossip, talk, debate, and be busy with this story for months or years. Some empire attacked another killing hundreds of thousands. Have you heard about the wife of the emperor cheating on him?
2024 is the same as 2024 BC. Same shit. Wars, conflicts, gossip, decimation of other creatures and destruction of the environment.
Same idiots, only that now we have internet, electricity and airplanes.

Underlying rights beneath ideas like freedom equality under the law rule of law we find community You Me and all our masks and stories. Wise elders of yore devised ritual stomping into Earth, in communion with planet, land of ancestors, sacred lore. I see your face, study the lines and lessons life has given. Do you see the scarlet streams of suffering so unnecessary missed cues, fear itself, unexpected consequences, collateral damage? If life were simple childish agonies dispelled with dawn’s bright kiss, we would laugh so happy to know cross-purposes, cross-talk easily sorted out in counsel. Cast into sorted cells with little thought to empowering; we could harness the Sun, Moon, birth of the planets, simply allowing our minds to grow.
For the past several months no one could install flatpaks from our Trade-Free TROMjaro app Library - tromjaro.com/apps/ - and now we finally fixed it thanks to @Rokosun ! One click installs :)
We have curated around 700 trade-free apps for the library and we plan to add a lot more the following months. Check it out!
This is a fragment from our TROM II documentary - I really tried to make the music not too loud so you can easily hear what people say. We also have English captions for the entire documentary just in case.
Thanks for the replies. Tio - it's not a question of volume - I can hear what people say. For me it's sensory overload that comes from music in the background when people are talking. I can't speak for people who are hard of hearing or neurodivergent and how the volume impacts them.
Hard to know how to deal with this. I tried to make the music not too loud but anyone can lower it down and put the captions....it is the best I could do.
Thank you Alfonso for becoming the 85th TROM supporter! We need 200 in total who can donate 5 Euros a month to support this project forever. See tromsite.com/donate/ #200fortrom
This is a crazy documentary videoneat.com/documentaries/26… but also you'll notice how trade is again a driving force for how this world moves and in what direction. Regardless if we talk about dictatorships or other systems.
A real-life undercover thriller about two ordinary men who embark on an outrageously dangerous ten-year mission to penetrate the world’s most secretive and brutal dictatorship: North Korea.

I've watched, but I find more crazier that after this documentary nothing followed. No arrests, all of the people trading arms and drugs can easily continue.... That's so fucked up.
The most dramatic moment for me was when they went to buy an island and told the local people that their going to build a hospital for them. When in fact their own people planned to evict all of them from that island. That was very sad...
Oh yah that was so fucked up even those guys undercover felt like shit doing it even if it was fake and they would not buy an island. Imagine how many such situations happen globally and we hear nothing about. Fucked up.

Yah but I was not surprised honestly. Maybe only surprised because of that Spanish guy who is free and living in Barcelona/Tarragona. But the rest are from N Korea or some African countries, and no one would touch those. UN took notice after this documentary and "did some stuff" idk what....put some people on their "bad list" or idk.
Thank you Juan for becoming our new supporter for 200 for TROM campaign! tromsite.com/donate/ - If this campaign reaches its goal then TROM will be sustainable, kinda forever. It will allow us to run the so many projects/services for a while, without stressing over the money situation.
Help if you can. Spread if you can. Thanks!
Everything we do is trade-free. So the only way to support TROM is through volunteer donations.
