Could a £2-a-day basic income be the key to protecting rainforests? theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Well, of course that if you are poor you'll cut down trees to trade for some food! Everyone should be helped. A basic income without any strings attached is the most basic thing humans can provide now, for everyone!

We need to decouple people from this trade-based society!

Sana Mare

Sana Mare is an international environmental organisation that works to protect the oceans. Our focus is on combating the discharge of civilisation’s waste into the ocean. Poverty is the biggest environmental toxin. In developing countries in Africa and Asia, we therefore combine our efforts to protect the ocean with the reduction of poverty.

We are organised as an association. The association was founded in 2020 by oceanographer and climate scientist Lucas Schmitz. We do not strive for profit, but to maximise environmental protection. If you identify with the goals of our association, you are very welcome as a member.

I think focusing on these little things, for these little platforms like ours, makes no difference and sense. I can clearly see a huge difference between 480p and fullHD. Changing the world should also keep us reasonable. Should we also measure the energy it takes for you to start this conversation? :)

For now HD and FullHD are very much reasonable resolutions. If the internet speed is an issue for some, I am sorry but enabling one more lower res will put too much toll on our server's diskspace. We cannot afford it.

We will soon update our TROMjaro theme switcher to support some 160 unique theme styles with a very simple interface :)

A complete theme switcher application :).

Customized our TROM RSS rss.trom.tf/ theme and fixed our TROM Social login-theme for mobile ;)

One day we will make a short video presentation for each of our services. Until then, feel free to use them all trom.tf/ - trade-free!

For the past few days we managed to trigger the auto-transcription for thousands of our peertube videos videos.trom.tf - All of our TROMcasts, our TROM documentary snippets, all of our videos indeed and all of the VideoNeat trailers now have an English caption. While it is not perfect, it is impressively accurate considering that it is automated. @PeerTube is a real alternative to Youtube, in all regards.

Every new video that is going to be uploaded to our Peertube will have a caption from now on.

Join us!

in reply to William B Peckham

There are plugins for Peertube as far as I know that enable such features. They are made by 3rd party devs. I would hate to see ads on Peertube and we will never enable that. In that sense peertube is not an alternative to youtube and I hope it stays this way.

The usual Manjaro Stable updates plus fixing our TROM Search redirections. If you are not aware we have integrated a very nifty search into TROMjaro, read all about it here.

Improvements for TROM.tf :

Our TROM Social first page (login) is not anymore just an empty page with a simple login, it provides you a peek into the fediverse:

Now you can see what's going on on the network, maybe to convince you to join :). It took a lot of CSS and HMTL gymnastics to achieve this. From my tests on desktop with mobile emulators all looks good on mobile, but for some reason when I check it on my phone it does not look as it should....I shall investigate.

Implemented some dark toggles for some of our services, where it was doable, such as Call

Search

Speed

And made our TROM Call, Jitsi Meet, more reliable.

Lastly we spent many days trying to figure out how to make our Peertube Live work better. Hours of tests, lots of logs. Hopefully we can make it more reliable.
