@aral To be fair, putting aside the terrible wars happening, no one can live on this planet without trading.... you can't be a good human being, do good thing, and survive. You have no access to food, water, shelter and the necessities of life... This is terrible.
@futureisfoss@aral@trom Dang yeah I am unsure why this happens only on iPhones. It is reported here github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube… - Maybe something to do with iPhones plus Firefox? Works perfectly fine on Android 13 and Firefox on my end....
I will have to investigate more but since I do not own an iPhone it makes it very difficult.
We went out again with the telescope and we saw Saturn, Jupiter, and parts of the Milky Way. Here are some photos - astonishing that they are made with a phone (Pixel 4A 4G).
Me and Sasha:
Edited a little bit the colors, light, and details. But not that much, a few minutes editing.
An "arm" of the Milky Way:
Improved a bit the colors and contrast. Not by much.
Our TROM telescope (no editing):
And the coolest of them all, Georgi with a head-lamp :)
No editing, straight out of the phone, believe it or not.
Am impressed. So fucking cool: great experience to enjoy the night sky with our own eyes and a telescope, and low effort great photos :).
The @yunohost package for Friendica has not been updated in many months github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien… - we are trying to figure out but personally I am lost. If anyone can please help out? I think it is a must to give some love to Friendica and fix the update issue.
If @heluecht@tobias or @hypolite have any time to quickly look why it fails, could be awesome 😁 - but if you are busy totally understood.
I see 140125 WARNING ERROR 1146 (42S02) at line 1: Table 'friendica.addon' doesn't exist
In any case we must find a way to update the package. I pinged some friends, let's see 😁
Soon I will do a presentation in Prague about our TROM project and a good part of the presentation is about the Fediverse and Friendica, so I'd like our instance to be up to date of course, and showcase to people a new social network basically. Any help is also a sort of help to push more people to migrate from FB and the like, to Friendica and the fediverse overall. pull requests · yunohost-apps/friendica_ynh
@hypolite Thank you so much for the input and the comment you left on github. I will ask the ynh devs to look closely into what you have asked. I love Friendica and YNH allows people to easily install it. I hope we can fix it 😀.
@rotfarm Opera is a multi-platform web browser developed by its namesake company Opera.[11][12][13] The browser is based on Chromium, but distinguishes itself from other Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, etc.) through its user interface and other features. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opera_(w…
@rotfarm I agree. Unfortunately there aren't many alternatives. I use Firefox for many years now, but except that, what are other options that are not Chromium dependent or dependent on Firefox who receives a lot of money from Google?
Basically now you can use other servers to do the transcoding, even your own local machine. This is insane! So amazing! I will have a deeper look into it.
Towards the end of this year, the version 6 will bring password protect option for videos, the ability to see thumbnails when hovering the playback bar, chapters, or the ability to replace a video with a new version!
This is how a video platform should be run. Kudos to this motherfuckers! They are the heroes of our society, together with the ones who volunteer themselves to make this world (offline or online) a bit better! We should force this society to provide humans with at least their basic needs as trade-free so that we can grow more of these projects. You need a fertile soil in order to grow stuff from it.
@hypolite Feel free to use office.trom.tf/ or files.trom.tf (you need an account for this, it is nextcloud, but has the powerful Onlyoffice enabled). I would also be curious to see the document and maybe contribute if able/allowed to ?
@utzer@hypolite@yunohost Speaking of that is it ok to skip a stable update and update to the next one? Like I have skipped 1 stable update (latest one) and I'd like to update to the december one. Will that be ok? I
@utzer@hypolite@yunohost Yeah so basically they should not even try to do that. Sounds like a bad plan. Probably wait for the next stable release and update from dec dev to dec stable if you release in december.
How non-recommended is to downgrade from a dev version of friendica to a stable one? The @yunohost developers pushed an update recently to the Friendica package and by mistake they labeled it as stable but the update was taken from the dev branch. So people updated to the dev branch...now they are trying to push a fix and in the fix to force the instances that upgraded to the dev, to revert back to stable.
Can you please tell me if this is a good idea? I want to make them aware if not. Thanks!
@utzer@hypolite@yunohost Ah interesting so maybe is better to skip this stable branch anyway. But yeah I was wondering if it is a bad idea to go from a new dev branch to an old stable branch, to make the ynh devs aware.
After I release TROM II I will try, little by little, to fully migrate to these decentralized platforms like Scuttlebutt and Tox for messaging. We really need that and not servers and centralization.
The Fediverse and Matrix, are great for now. But they are what I like to call as decentralized centralization. Several servers instead of 1. And only a few have most of the users, thus have immense control over the entire network.
I'm not used to do this, but with the large influx of new users and node admins recently coming from #Twitter, our small team is now behind the curve for handling support requests, bug reports and bring about much-needed features.
The project is built on a #PHP/#MySQL platform, but we also need people to be able to assist others just using the software to give developers some space.
Great amount of wok on TROMjaro these days. @esh worked like nuts! Then @roko came to help. Both fantastic creatures. Our scripts look way better now. Before we had to run them every few seconds (bad), now we trigger them based on relevant changes of the system. This result in instant actions.
So, let me repeat, we are able to sync the system's theme, icon pack, and font, across GTK, GTK + LIbadwaita, Qt, QT5, QT6, and Flatpaks (the ones that support it). This is USABILITY, not simply fancy shit. And it works. Instantly. Makes the desktop fuckin' sane.
So bloody happy with TROMjaro. It is unfortunate that so few people know about it...but well...we will try to make it more visible...what can we do!? ?
A bunch of atoms that are curious about the world, but furious about the society. We should help all humans to have a decent life without any strings attached, so that we can understand us, the atoms, and the rest of the universe. And create a smarter and saner society.Since 2005 I make documentaries, write books, and enable many trade-free platforms for everyone.
