Interesting documentary about the craze of "media", but they fail to tie it with the trade society that incentivizes these things.

A Storyville documentary that tells the true story of Tomoaki Hamatsu, who spent 15 months in a small room, naked, starving and alone, unaware he was being broadcast to millions of people on TV.

We have 2 new subscribers to our 200 for TROM campaign - tromsite.com/donate/

Thank Aaron and Wilf!

We need 9 more people in order to achieve our first goal: start a video series, bring back TROMnews and provide 20GB storage space for TROM Files for all users.

#opensource #foss #society #trom #tromsite #campaign #fedi

Rebooting TROM! These are our goals if you can help:

We can increase the storage space for TROM Files up to 50GB for each user. We can start a new video series, bring back TROMnews, make an app for VideoNeat, and more.

We only need a minimum of help. A handful of people willing to donate 5 Euros a month.

Since we do not bullshit you with "you send us money and we will give you a special treatment" then it is harder to find people to help us since everyone is used to being "rewarded" for their help.

But we want to keep everything that we do trade-free for EVERYONE.

We could easily say "If you donate we will give you more storage space on TROM Files" or more advantages for any of our services.

But we NEVER did that, and NEVER will.

Therefore, if you see the value in what we do - and please see here tromsite.com/donate/ all of what we do (scroll down to see it all), then please support us with this campaign.

The hopes are low, but then the surprises can feel a lot better.

The most alien place we found... - videos.trom.tf/w/2i7qJnNxoU7vp…

Bardenas Reales is a place in the north of Spain. A desert with odd shaped structures. I, Tio, saw these structures in a documentary with Brian Cox called Solar System - you can watch it here videoneat.com/documentaries/26… - so I looked for the place only to find out it is in Spain.

It is one of those unique places that you may never forged 😃.

This documentary was more interesting than I thought....

Podcaster and journalist Gabriel Gatehouse sets out to solve the biggest mystery in tech, who is Satoshi Nakamoto, the elusive creator of Bitcoin? But Gabriel realises in fact he's on a much bigger story.

It is finally time to take care of TROM. The website got a bit updated/fixed here and there. We also updated the Donation page. There are 89 people who donate 5 Euros a month. Thank you so much!

Soon we will add goals to the donation page, and if we reach those we can release some new stuff and/or increase the storage for TROM Files for everyone and so forth.

If you can donate and support the so many projects we do, see tromsite.com/donate/

And check the main page if you want to see what we are doing tromsite.com/

We have managed to finally move from Gitea to Forgejo - git.trom.tf/ - thank you @Roma for doing it :).

But we had to move repo by repo so we could not move the users. Only 3 other users used our git, and all of them were not active for the past year. This TROM Git is pretty much exclusively used for our TROMjaro project, but anyone can request an account there and use it fully.

Now TROM.tf is fully moved to the new server!

Scandinavia with Simon Reeve - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

Interesting documentary about how we can make our society a bit better. Things to learn from these Nordic countries, but also a bit of an expose of how even these tribes rely on the fossil fuel industry and so forth...

This one's from April in La Guardia de Jaén, Andalusia- videos.trom.tf/w/fwAQqRhVcE3tc…

A very pretty little village with great views and a nice motorhome parking area with free services. The only problem was that a group of men sang loud flamenco music right next to our motorhome as we tried to sleep 😄 So we left to a parking area near the Peñarroya Castle. Made a cheesecake and had a nice time there 🙂

Thank you Paul for the 15 Euros donation! tromsite.com/donate/

Every donation matters :)

I think Friendica is back and running from the new server. This is a test. Let me know if you see this post :)

Urgent server migration!

One of our disks on the server where trom.tf is hosted, is failing. We need to urgently move to a new server. Please if you use our trom.tf services mind you that your data may be lost in the migration process if you will use our services today.

We hope to finish the entire migration before tomorrow.

Keep an eye on the status here - status.tromsite.com/

Our Peertube instance will not work while we are moving the data file to the new server. Tomorrow hopefully we will have our Peertube located to the new server. 1.3TB of data had to be moved. Maybe the entire trom.tf server will be at the new location.

Hard to move this massive server but on it!
