You know how some people complain about the stability of Linux for desktops and how, you know, it may not be reliable, especially Arch. What about Manjaro + Arch. How about a system based on Arch but with Manjaro's repos + the Chaotic AUR repo?
Well stable as a mountain! Using TROMjaro for many years now and despite doing a lot of updates, all works perfectly fine. Long gone are the days of being afraid to do the updates. This is my experience.
I 100% rely on my laptop for a lot of daily use uses. I need it to work! And it does!

This release brings automatic video #transcription using #Whisper (also supported in PeerTube runners too), a new comment policy "requires approval first", auto-tagging/labelling of videos and comments based on specific rules and a comment moderation page for video publishers 🎉
This new version is all about making your life easier. Easier moderation, easier subtitle creation and easier video highlighting. Let's take a look! C...
About how boats with immigrants are sent back, capsized, and so on, just to prevent them from reaching Europe. Treating people like pigs used for consumption. Like meat.
But don't worry we have laws in place to prevent this....
Are masked men responsible for people dying as they try to cross the Mediterranean? This film reveals the dark secret hidden behind the beauty of Greece’s holiday islands.
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.
Watch this documentary to see how governments and companies go after buying Earth resources from other tribes, in all sorts of terrible ways. From arable land to water. In a crazy race to get enough for their own tribe because of the impacts of climate change that will devastate vast areas on this planet.
This terrible mentality of trying to survive and thrive at the expense of the rest, as if we are not living on the same planet. Same spaceship.
Very telling documentary. Some 10 years in the making.

Hello people and many apologies but for the past few months Google (Gmail) has been blocking our verification emails for our Peertube instance videos.trom.tf and thus many users were unable to complete the registration. We were wondering why so many people register but do not confirm their registration.
Many apologies.
Now we have temporarily removed the email verification and we are trying to fix the issue with Google. You can register again, and as we always ask please respect the instance's thematic: videos in English and keep them scientific/educational/tech.
My experience with getting a driving license here in Spain has been terrible. Started in December last year. Passed the exam in English in February - absolutely terrible translations. Waited till the end of May to start the driving classes. Did 16 hours so far. Insanity squared. They are absolutely draconian with how you have to drive. From how you have to use the pedals, change the gears, or hold the steering wheel - in the exact way they tell you; to how you have to drive in this absolutely perfect way.
I can't properly explain to you now how fucked up it is, but I tell you this: not a single person drives like this. None. Not even the instructor. And she 100% agrees with that. She tells us that she teaches us how to pass the driving exam, that's all.
I've been doing some lessons with another "student". A man from Cuba who had a driving license for a few decades, but in Spain you cannot use it, you have to do all of the exams as if you are new to driving. The poor man really struggles...despite him knowing perfectly well how to drive. That's how fucked up it is.

So far I've spent a bit over 1.000 Euros and I will have to spend a few hundreds more. I hope to do the exam at the end of this month. The vast majority of people fail the first try since it is impossible to drive the way they want you to, and it is well known the examiners are fucking terrible and will fail you.
Therefore very likely I will fail it. Then I need to wait till October/November to try it again and get more lessons (mandatory) before trying....
And even if I get it, it takes around 3-4 months to give you the driving license.
This is so insane to spend so much money and to take a year or more to get the fucking driving license in Spain.
Absolute garbage.
I have taken notes, filmed stuff, and so on. I will make a big article or video about this fucked up situation.
If I knew....I would have never started this. If anyone thinks to do their driving license in Spain, you must love to torture yourself. Never do it. Go to another tribe that can do licenses exchange with Spain, and do it there. Will cost you less and you won't have a heart attack.
If the "authorities" are worried that children watch too much porn and these kids then try to porn-themselves-out for pleasure, causing issues since they don't understand that most porn is fake, then for sure forcing people to verify their age when accessing some porn websites will make these kids think twice before accessing any of the millions of worldwide porn websites....
How about you make the life of kids, and people overall, more relaxing? How about you don't force the kids to go to school and parents to go to work, just to survive? Maybe if people were to be more "free" and have time to learn about the world, to have fun, to establish relationships and not worry about wtf they ar

When the human being is busy 8 hours a day, or more, 5 days a week, or more, with mandatory tasks (school/job), in a society based on trade (consumption), then the easiest and most familiar way to get some "fun" are shallow, fast things. Fast food, fast fashion, fastly-made and dumbed-down media, fast sexual pleasure (watch some porn), and so forth. No time for anything meaningful.
The real question is will the adults accept this verification process? This just sounds like a privacy nightmare! 😐
IMO the biggest issue with porn is that it's so fake and unrealistic, and that's not in itself a problem but it becomes one if the person watching thinks it's real. I've heard somewhere that watching porn and thinking it's real sex is like is like watching martial arts on TV and thinking that's how a real fight looks like, lol 😂 Maybe the real solution here is proper sex education, something to think about..... 🤔
Hortobagy National Park have some incredible rewilding and conservation projects. Like bringing extinct animals like Auroch, or extincted int the wild Przewalski's horses. It's unique place in Hungary and they are doing so much to restore and protect the nature.
