How we do the laundry? - videos.trom.tf/w/bFbRQYq9ymPgL…

It is unreasonable to have a washing machine in the motorhome. So then, how do we wash our clothes? Interestingly it is easier than doing it at home.

We visited for free this amazing cave. I think it has the tallest formation of stalactites in the world. 32 meters.

There are people in these photos if you look carefully :D

In this care there were people living some 25.000 years ago. Nuts! And cave hyenas. And they discovered cave paintings there that could be the oldest in all human species history, some 42.000 years ago made by Neanderthals. But still they need to confirm this.

The Nerja Cave - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caves_of…

This is me down there...

Mind blowing experience. You have to visit this cave if you can. Put it on your bucket list. The photos do no justice to how amazing the experience was. And from 9:30 every day they provide free tickets if you manage to book them.

Fantastic!

Of course we will make a video about this for our TROMhome channel - videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide…

I feel like this video is an important one to share. I'm glad he also shed some light on the importance of publicly funded research, people don't seem to realize just how much of the science that comes out of private companies are built on studies from academia.

100% I was about to share the same video actually. Really good one.

The usual updates plus: We have removed the package qt6gtk2-git and replaced with qt6gtk2. The git version was maintained by someone who was calling himself a “Russian troll” And the project was archived anyway.

This was a creepy place - videos.trom.tf/w/2pDZA7QkdP7QN…

We ended up in a place that was used for cultish rituals (aka: religion). Tens of big trash bins, lots and lots of garbage, fire pits...and signs about "virgins". Except that, the place was quiet and still ok 😃.

There was so much garbage in this place.... - videos.trom.tf/w/1fQsmvtKDTJaJ…

In this part of Spain (Fuencaliente, Portollano) we found so much trash it is incredible. Such a shame to see this waste. We tried to clean this park a bit but....

Hunt for the Oldest DNA

YEAR: 2024 | LENGTH: 1 part (59 minutes) | SOURCE: BBC

description:

For decades, scientists have tried to unlock the secrets of ancient DNA. But life’s genetic blueprint is incredibly fragile, and researchers have struggled to find genetic material in fossils that has survived for millions of years. Then, one maverick scientist had the controversial idea of looking for DNA not in fossils or frozen ancient tissue – but in the soil.

This film follows the scientists deciphering the oldest DNA ever found and revealing for the first time the genes of long-extinct creatures that once thrived in warm, lush Arctic landscapes.

unrelated, found fun fact

:blob_grinning_sweat: @tio @sober_pirate in Ukrainian 16 and 60 numbers are easier

16 is шіст-на-дцять that literally says: "6-above-ten" (because 16 is 6 on top of ten)

Wow I thought my photo of the Moon had some artifacts....it seems no....those are the Pleiades...

Had to zoom in:

Then took my binoculars to get closer:

Not the best quality but still :).

The Sickness-Society: either you are well and functional — or sick and dysfunctional - madintheuk.com/2025/03/the-sic…

Psychology is like recycling, you think it is working, but it is not. Never addresses the core problem. So easy to put people into categories and call them "sick". Works well for a livestock society. Best excuse to never touch the system in both cases. Continue recycling...continue labeling people as mentally ill. And let the system survive....

Truth is the opposite. It is this trade-based society that makes people mentally sick, and if we want to change that we have to change the society, not adjust the people to it.

Very good and on point article!

This is where we are :)

If you zoom in you will see our TROMhome:

Quite nice. Quiet. Our 650W of solar panels give us more solar energy than we need....so cool. Quite offgrid :D.

Yo, listen up, damn it. You're out in the middle of fuckin' nowhere, right? I'm askin', you packin' heat or what? That's some crazy remote shit, ain't nobody around for miles. What the fuck you gonna do if some psycho or some other crazy ass motherfucker comes at you? You just gonna stand there and take it, or you got a plan to defend yourself? For real, how you gonna protect yourself out here, huh?
in reply to plurality

I can defend myself from all attackers. :)

Now in all seriousness this place is not too remote. So far we never felt like we were in any sort of danger.

You can see in the photo there is a road right next to the motorhome, I don't think it's that remote man....
in reply to Rokosun

No it is not haha :). Even now there are cars parked where we are.

Photo album: Russia, 2025

I visited my family in Russia after over 5 years of not seeing them. Babushkas are getting older, but still walking and feeding cats, ducks and pigeons 😊 I wrote about their funny habits in chapter 3 of my book bigworldsmallsasha.com/book/
Feels so long ago now 🥲
