You'll never be as cool as Iranian breakdancers in 70s breakdancing for their moms and aunties.

“Socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor,” ordinary people are expected to absorb every risk created by rampant corporate speculation, while the wealthy get rescued from the consequences of their own decisions, free market ideology demands minimal regulation, personal responsibility, and no government interference right up until banks and corporations crash or investors start losing money, and then public money somehow magically appears through bailouts, emergency loans, subsidies, tax breaks, and government guarantees, the people whose labor actually makes the elite wealthy then end up losing their jobs, homes, healthcare, pensions, and savings and are told that’s simply how the market works, corporate losses get pushed onto the public while their profits remain private, and the same mfrs who condemn welfare for keeping poor people dependent have built an entire economic system where some of the richest institutions on Earth repeatedly depend on the government to save them.

They make the person look like an honest face when it gleams or catches the light just so

'The company wants us to accept this as a done deal and quietly disappear. We won't let that happen'

Some random shit I saw today...

Infineon Technologies has opened its Smart Power Fab in Dresden, Germany, months ahead of schedule, bringing the world’s largest manufacturing facility for intelligent power semiconductors and analog/mixed-signal technologies into operation.

The facility represents a €5 billion (about $5.7 billion) investment, the largest in the company’s history. It creates 1,000 direct jobs and doubles Infineon’s manufacturing capacity in Dresden.

The factory will produce chips that improve how electricity is converted and managed. Those devices will support AI data centers. They will also help power electricity grids and software-defined vehicles.

I used to digitize old family photographs with my mom about five years ago. We used a Canon LiDE 300 on Windows 10.

Since then, I have matured. 🤣

I switched to Linux about two years ago - Artix btw - and now I want to revive this cozy tradition of digitizing photos. I'm looking at the Canon LiDE 400, but that's partially irrelevant. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SANE says it should be supported.

Question: do you have any experience with the frontends? Do you know if there is one that - like the proprietary Canon software for Windows - can pick out individual photographs from the scan surface? So that I don't have to manually crop the file afterwards.

Thanks in advance! 😊

My partners cat is so good at sitting still for a picture. I wish the others would sit so well.
