Thank you Maria for the amazing 120 Euro donation! Much much appreciated especially now when I (Tio) had to spend a lot of money to come to Prague for the ZDay! It helps a lot! #tromlive
We will work on the presentation recordings these days and we will make it available soon. These past 2 days were really amazing and have spark new friendships and relationships, and new ideas about what we can do in the future. We may even do a Trade-Free Yearly event, but let's see, it is a raw and wild idea now. #tromlive
The ZDay is over and the reactions we got were really encouraging. We will give you more info and hope to post the recording tomorrow. In the meantime here are some photos:
Tomorrow we are at ZDay in Prague. Tio will present TROM with the focus on why trade is the origin of most problems and why creating trade-free goods and services is so crucial.
We will try to post photos and videos over here to our Friendica page. So stay tuned!

TROM II is now fully translated into Romanian thanks to @Georgi who worked like crazy for the past months to do it.
It is particularly difficult to translate into Romanian because this language comes in 2 main flavors: the official language and the language that people normally speak. And there can be a big difference between the two.
Georgi tried as much as possible to translate in a way that people talk and not in this official robot-like way. She used Kdenlive for the entire translation process.
TROM II: A Message to the Aliens Year: 2023Β Β /Β Β Duration: 4 parts, 5 hours We live in a world where everyone is busy, everyone is consumed, everyone seems confused. Money, social credits, ads, data collection, prices and billionaires.
I kinda finished the presentation for ZDay! :) Am happy with it. Around 40 minutes long and I tried to make it fun and interesting and put things in a different perspective from what I did in our previous TROM materials. So even those familiar with TROM may find it, I hope, interesting.
75 slides, and a lot of animated stuff :). I LOVE LibreOffice Presentations. Trade-Free software at its best. You can make some really cool presentations with it.
Half the talk will be about what our society is made of. You know, trade...and how it influences everything. The other half is about our trade-free approach. I will also explain The Fediverse, will talk about TROMjaro and our other tools.
These days I need to get ready for the trip. How awesome that I now have a good laptop that I can take with me, thanks mostly to Roma and Gui who donated money so that I can buy it. I definitely use it mostly for TROM.
That's all. I kinda struggled with this presentation and I worked on it quite a lot. But now that it is done I am relieved ;).
On the 26th of August, in less than 2 weeks, I (Tio) will go to Prague for the last ZDay event. ZDay, or Zeitgeist Day, is a global yearly event organized by the Zeitgeist Movement (TZM). It is meant to invite people from all around the world to present similar ideas to those that Zeitgeist stands behind. TROM started soon after the Zeitgeist Movement sparked into existence as the activism arm of The Venus Project. Our views are very similar and we are heading towards the same direction.
TZM will stop organizing these ZDay events because it tries to decentralize itself. So this will be the last ZDay, therefore I thought it would be a shame to never have participated in this event, so I contacted the organizers and asked if I can come. They were very familiar with TROM and happy to have me there. We've just released a new documentary so this is a perfect timing for such a presentatio... show more
Hey people,
On the 26th of August, in less than 2 weeks, I (Tio) will go to Prague for the last ZDay event. ZDay, or Zeitgeist Day, is a global yearly event organized by the Zeitgeist Movement (TZM).

The event will be in Prague at the Spojka KarlΓn Events on 26th this month. It will start on 12:00 and end at 18:00. There will be 6 speakers in total. 4 will do their presentations in Czech and 2 in English (one of them is me). This is the official website for the event zeitgeistmovement.cz/2023/07/1β¦
All of the presentations will be translated live via personal headphones that the audience can wear. The event can host up to 120 people and over 50 seats are already booked. In order to participate you have to book here cloud.tzm.community/apps/formsβ¦
It does not cost money to participate.
My talk will be called "How to Grow a Saner Society. A Lifetime Adventure." and I will try to keep it more positive. I will talk about our trade-free approach, the TROM.tf project, and a lot more. But I will try to put it all in a new unique perspective. The talk will be 30-40 minutes long and it will be recorded. We will upload it to our Peertube whenever it will be available.
This is a first for me, so let's see how it goes. If you want to meet up, please come to the Prague event if you can! 5 of us from TROM will be there including Roma, Aaron, Vicky and Rafa.
This is a big and important update for TROMjaro, and we made so many little changes that I can only highlight the most noticeable ones. In essence, I want TROMjaro to be very user friendly from the get go.
Hope it is, and if not yet, will be soon, i really want to switch from windows but the fear of breaking my head on how to do a lot of little day to day things is blocking me..
We are here to help. You can easily give it a try alongside Windows. Use our TROMjaro live chat we are a bunch of people there ready to help out. matrix.to/#/#tromjaro:matrix.tβ¦

In May I joined Protest - Educative camp "Save Komarnica" in Montenegro. Komarnica is a wild river which is under a threat of hydro power plant. If it will be build it will destroy the river, local ecosystem, many species will go extinct and also it will block migration routes for the fish. It also will bring only tiny amount of electricity.
Here is the story about the camp and organization who fight to protect Komarnica. To find out more : facebook.com/nasakomarnica

TROM II Documentary now full translated into Polish tromsite.com/documentaries/tro⦠thanks to Jaroslaw! A massive amount of work. Thank you so much! Please share :)
Our TROM Call has been restored because we figured out why it stopped working after a while - call.trom.tf/
TROM Call (Jitsi) is a complete Zoom alternative, but a lot better because there are no restrictions. No registrations needed, no participants limit or duration of the call. Plus a lot more features.
We hope that now it will work well. Give it a try! #tromlive
