TROM-Cast 01: Open Source

---

This week we are discussing the idea of "open source" and we will showcase our own custom TROM operating system based on Manjaro-Linux. We will talk apps and security, operating systems and computer devices. We plan to bring this TROM-Cast every Saturday 19:00 UTC time. We also plan to segment the show in 3 parts:

1. Discuss a topic that is TROM related - it can also be a book that we've released or something we've created. This is going to be the biggest segment of the show.

2. Recommend one documentary from VideoNeat every week and discuss it a bit. We recommend Revolution OS https://videoneat.com/documentaries/1376/revolution-os/

3. Briefly discuss 3 important news of the week from TROM Curated News, and who knows maybe one Curated Video.

Please understand that this is a "beta" testing and we recommend you to test the live edition not install for good. If you install it make sure you understand how to install and deal with it. We hope to release an official version in a few weeks time and we will create a webpage to explain it in detail (from how to install, to how to use).
