And exactly as I thought instead of education and simplifying workflows purposes these companies' "AI's" will be used to generate a "better" ads experience for you. Absolutely disgusting.

While they are still available use the Ad Blockers or FreeTube App if you want to see more sane and adequate ytb like it used to be long time ago.

In an example shared by YouTube, a man proposes and the couple shares a kiss. YouTube then recognizes this as a “peak” moment and suggests an ad window immediately following it.

Welcome to dystopia.

A predictable one if you understand that Trade is the Origin of Most Problems. So predictable.... and 0 chances we change anything within the same system...

in reply to Tio

Yeah, those examples make me sick, absolutely inhumane practice (me saying if ever those trading ads companies were humane and not decieving and manipulative 🙄) and it will become worse of course. I agree that it is not going to change in this system because an urge for profits is only growing 😕

If you use:
Temporary Containers
addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firef…

Then every new container has no cookies. It's always a New Day at youtube and you start fresh each time with it not 'knowing' you.
Of course, you still need to run other things like uBlockOrigin or equivalent.
As a bonus, other websites can't follow you around either.
Painless and free.

I posted this comment on the video itself but will paste it here in case you @Dima see it:

Very well made video Dima!

I did not understand the "solution" part. There was a guy who was planting a crop with all of the other plants, so no herbicides. But how can you harvest that on a big scale? Also how about invasive species when you dont control for that?

Also wouldnt it be better instead of 3D printing that thing for bees, with plastic, to use wood?

Great job overall!

The former movie description from Tribeca Festival reads: “Before there was Avicii, there was just Tim. For the first time through his own words, witness the journey of a shy but prodigious musical talent who would soon become one of the defining artists of his generation”.According to Billboard, the movie will include “never-before-seen archive footage and interviews with Bergling himself”. It will also feature “newly produced material, with interviews with Bergling’s family, friends and colleagues”.

We need help with our 200 for TROM Campaign - tromsite.com/donate/ - we have a bit over 40% of the needed support. We only accept 5€ a month donations to not have to rely on a few individuals donating more money. We need to make this sustainable.

Unfortunately the support over the past months has dropped a little bit. So if you can, please support us.

On the same page you can see what you are supporting. We hope this year to bring new projects to TROM, although it is terribly difficult to do so when you can't even get the minimum support needed to run the current projects.

We have been resilient since 2011 so we will not give up, but the ones who see value in such projects need to support them at least a little bit in order for these projects to survive.

Many thanks to those who keep on supporting us!

This was kinda unexpected, but I totally understand why you had to let it go.
in reply to Rokosun

Yes I didnt even want to mention to anyone since I didnt want for anyone to convince me otherwise :D - I needed to let it go for my own sanity. Too much to deal with...and there are more sustainable ways to read saner news like I explained in the article.

in reply to Dima

You seem unstoppable guys. You make me feel lazy for not being active lately. On the other hand inspiring to make me get more active with my stuff. Interesting about the solitary bees, I was not very aware about that. Looking forward to the videos!

Tip: add hashtags like nature, conservation, ireland, etc.. You will reach more people on the fediverse.



We extended the shutting down of our TROM.tf Matrix chat from 4th of May to 14th of May so that people have time to migrate their accounts. For more info see - trom.tf/chat/

Please migrate!

IMPORTANT!

We will remove our Matrix server in a week time (4th of May). Here's why?

In short: the service has become hard to manage and bots (likely) have taken advantage of our kindness spamming other rooms/users. Because of that our hosting provider wanted to shut down our entire TROM.tf server. Hard to deal with all that and with a huge 300GB database. On top of this anyone can make an account with matrix.org or other instances.

Full explanation and solutions here - trom.tf/chat/

Why 99% of Glass Eels are Gone and How We Can Save Them? - videos.trom.tf/w/rXaJVsRtHBJGE…

Yet another example of people doing a lot of hard work, for free, and for a good cause. Imagine if more could be involved to do such acts. We need to take care of people, in order for people to not destroy the environment, each other, and to have time to restore what was destroyed.

Help people, to help the world.

Praying For Armageddon - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

A must watch documentary especially now when the biggest cult in the world (Christianity) is celebrating their fantasy story about the creator of the universe. See how this cult is infiltrating politics and influencing decisions that affect all of us.

Terrible.

Us, as humans, have a lot to celebrate if we look at the reality around us. Evolution, DNA, stars, the universe. We are all part of the same real and amazing story. Time to let go of these silly fantasies.

You could have saved a lot of typing by simply writing "We hate Jews".

JR Wilson doesn't like this.

in reply to Serge from Babka

I do not hates "jews". I am simply saying that religion is a cult. Regardless of the flavor. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult


Our chat.trom.tf (Matrix/Synapse) has become very difficult to manage - growing database, not an easy way to prevent bots from registering, or others from abusing our service.

For now we have closed the registrations and only accept them via requests. We have 460 users but we are thinking to perhaps shut down the entire service this year.

Too much work considering anyone can make trade-free accounts with matrix.org or other providers....

We will keep everyone informed about our future plans.

@tio Nextcloud Talk is a great Software, but there aren't good security options on it, the conversations are saved in clear text on backend.

If you have some tips for this point, I would pleased to see it ;)

@Tio
in reply to P_L.yml

I understand. I hope they can add encryption to the chats...but on the other hand if anyone gains access to our server and is able to read that "text file" in the backend, we are screwed anyway since we host a lot of services on or trom.tf. Including Friendica which is not encrypted....

So yes, I do prefer an encrypted chat, but things must be put into perspective. Our Nextcloud instance at trom.tf already provides encrypted files/folders for all users, so at least we have that.



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.

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.
