Wow, Adam ruins ... capitalism?! I've never seen him like this. I wonder what prompted his awakening.

Very impressive, in terms of all of content, passion and production values.

The idea of launching satellites to display ads to humans, from space, sounds like an utter idiocracy. But it is something some are thinking seriously about. See here.
"Space advertising turns out to have a potential for commercial viability."


A trade based society where humans need and want (because of constant training) to trade this for that, even when we have enough to provide this or that without trading anything in return.

If we keep this trade society alive, humanity will get trashed. And is likely to be too late anyway....

in reply to Tio

Yeah, unfortunately, nothing new for our insane trade world.. Any idiotic idea counts, just to try to make a bit more money for someone to go on. Imagine how much money that someone can cut from the morons who will buy this shit? And sure I bet Musk's already first in the line offerring a delivery of that garbage to the orbit..
in reply to Tio

Swear, I had a joke that they would spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a research how to grow vegetables and fruits with the ads inprinted on the their surface. Hundreds of years of the biologocal science discoveries for these sorts of stupidity.. Now it sounds like someone can consider this shit seriously.
in reply to Roma

Shit Roma delete your comment some company may see it! But damn yeah....this sounds like not-so-crazy in today's society, or tomorrow's one...
in reply to Tio

The era of space ads started when elon musk put a tesla car into orbit around the earth, now I wouldn't be surprised if they went all in and show us ads in the sky. What an idiotic trade-based society 🤦

This ISO was created to reflect the (almost) monthly Manjaro Stable updates. In essence we want newcomers who try TROMjaro to not have to install a lot of updates out of the box. We will try to sync with these Manjaro Stable updates in that regards.

We need to release another quick ISO because most of the QT apps stopped working. To make this not too long, we use 2 packages that allow for the sync between GTK and QT in terms of theming, namely qt5-styleplugins and qt6gtk2.

Kiwix

Kiwix is an offline reader – meaning that it allows you to browse text or video that is normally only available on the internet. We turn various online contents (such as Wikipedia, for example) into ZIM files, and these can be opened by Kiwix even if you have no connectivity.

Our technology’s main advantage is its high compression rate. For instance, the entirety of Wikipedia (more than 6 million articles, with images) can fit in 80Gb. The Gutenberg Library’s 60,000 books will fit on 60 Gb of storage space.
