This is my desk. I have a frame with real photos of the Universe in my face there, to remind me about my place in it. I have this since 2012 or so. First images with exoplanets that humans discovered, some images with galaxies colliding, one with the cosmic background radiation, another with the sun and earth to put in perspective, another with the furthers galaxy (object) ever photographed (as of 201 or so). And a few other gems.

Tips and Help (social.trom.tf) reshared this.
Working on adding a section to our Friendica presentation here trom.tf/social/ full of recommended accounts to follow. Lots of RSS sources that are setup by me already so all you have to do is copy the link to your contacts page. I will try to add a bunch of accounts for organizations from the fediverse too. I just want to make it interesting and attractive for people to move to Friendica.
If I manage to move my sister to Friendica, fully, and to make her use facebook a lot less or not use it at all, I'll then declare victory! hahaha. Joking, anyone use whatever they like, but I want to show to people how awesome this social platform can be if you give it a try. #tromlive

@Hypolite Petovan We carried out an empirical experimentation on rss feeds and we drew some conclusions.
The problem of the very heavy slowdown of the system was probably due to a trivial problem!
Since I had set the search on the feeds once or twice a day (instead of frequently, convinced that this was the best way not to burden the system 🤓), the system created some processing "queues" that slowed down the whole publishing mechanism: some Sometimes, from Mastodon, I saw friendica's messages only after one or more hours of publication! 😭
When we reset everything to "frequently" the problem disappeared... 🤣

In this episode we will discuss about moderating the fediverse. Is it different from the online moderation in general? Is it even effective? What about the technicality of it?, Our guests are Hypolite Petovan and Michael Vogel, some of the lead devel…videos.trom.tf

Don't forget admins (in some/one of these types of projects)! I'd be happy to participate in items relating to promotion of the fediverse!
You'd want another bearded white guy to to help complete the look, right?

Damn the second shot of Moderna hit me like a modern train. At first I only felt pain in my arm where the shot was made, like the last time, and I was like "oh that's not a big deal". After some 8 hours I decide to go to sleep. 5 minutes after I got into bed I start to shake/shiver uncontrollably haha. Like I never experience this before to shiver so bad that you can't control yourself. Even the bed was shaking. It was like that 1973 movie, The Exorcist.
I started to get so cold I managed to put a few layers of clothes on me and another blanket to cover my robotic-shaking body. My body started to hurt and I woke up like ever 5 minutes. I am exhausted. My head hurts, my body hurts.
So yah I do not recommend for people to get vaccinated!
Just joking! You must be a moron not to. Getting COVID is way worse and when you body reacts the way mine did after the second shot, it simply means the vaccine is working. It triggered the immune system. So today and maybe tomorrow too, I will be around but I don't think I can work on any TROM projects....the suffering is fading away tho....

Just got my second COVID vaccine shot and I think people should be extremely angry at the transportation system if they want to pour their frustration somewhere. The vaccine took 10s. Had to wait 10 minutes after the shot and almost no minutes before (it was well organized - went there, got the shot). But it took us 1h 30 min to drive some 30km. Traffic jam. Slow as fuck. Tiring. Such an outdated system to allow everyone to drive a metal box on wheels. And all of these boxes are not eve the same - tons of models, new coming out every month or so. In truth all are the same, just different colors and design changes mostly. Such a retardation. And oh, it is also dangerous to be in a car...
So yah, if these morons worry about vaccines, but not about the transportation system, they are completely lost. Primitive world. #tromlive

Ok so yah happy with what I managed to do today for TROM II. Kdenlive can be very powerful if you take the time to learn how to use it. This is what I've done so far:
Of course there is a lot more to do. But will do! #tromlive

Managed to work a bit more to TROM II today. Need to figure some editing stuff these days so once I'm kinda good with that should be smoother. I am not rushing. I have a lot of things to do. I also love how well ytb.trom.tf works now without anti-captcha. Wonderful! I cannot use youtube without that.
Also @Sasha will be back in less than a week. Exited for that, and excited to read her book. I have the privilege to read it before anyone else :D .
And here's a video I saw on TROM curated videos ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=G1TMN_cq63… - sounds, in part, like he either heard of TROM or arrived at similar conclusions. I think the guy was from TZM or something. In any case, nice video. I'd like to see many like this, talking about trade as the origin of most problems.

This is what we are going to do to deal with our Peertube instance:Attention: this instance is solely dedicated to science/technology/nature videos in the English language, and it was so from the beginning. Even the activism/education needs to fall into these categories. Anything else will be removed with a 1 month noticed. Starting next month we will begin the monthly purge of accounts that did not respect our instance's categories. These rules will not be very strict, but users that mostly post pseudoscience, politics, porn, movies, and such, are going to be removed.

Fixed a few things to the Friendica themes in regards to event scheduling. Anyone can grab them from here drive.tromsite.com/s/xXSisCEz5…
Very happy that people seem to be liking the themes. I think it is an important aspect of a social platforms, to have some good themes that look nice and are easy to use. :)
Today I plan to work on TROM II a lot. I'll use an older Kdenlive appimage so that I don't ruin the project. #tromlive

I just realized KeePassXC supports 2 factor authentication....damn....that's really cool. Like I can save a website's credentials then 2FA for that website. No need to use 2 tools for that. It is called TOTP. Right click in KeePassXC on the website for which you want to add 2FA, and select TOTP - Setup. Now add the secret key that was generate for the service you want to setup 2FA. As simple as that. When you then login and it asks you for 2FA, go to KeePassXC and right click again on the website in your list, TOTP - Copy. That's all. Simple as fuck. soooo happy that I discovered this.
I truly recommend to everyone to setup 2FA for websites/services.

Unknown parent • •Well I wanted to create a clean Manjaro Gnome distro to remove Skype, Microsoft Office, Steam and other such apps that I felt have no place in the Open Source world. Then it evolved from there and I tweaked Firefox to block ads, trackers by default, or sponosred content in youtube videos + make it more usable and remove the nonsense. And in time we added more and more stuff to it, or actually removed. Now it is quite a simple OS, using the core of Manjaro but packaged with the apps we think are relevant and tweaked so that you don t have to trade your data/attention or money to any apps or websites.
We have customized it a bit and so forth. See the main website, the front page explains what it is about.
