  • I was gonna charge the guy 500 dollars to rename thirty thousand images to match the directory names. Since the guy had switched cameras several times it would have involved more than one simple script but I wasn't being paid for the script. I was being paid to do the job. Except my bash prompt scared the guy. The truth of it is he used me to leverage the company that specialized in data recovery into lowering their price down to a still absurd but much smaller amount.
    Its not the first time I've seen it but when they do something like that to me they burn a bridge.

    A related scam is charging absurd amount to convert and catalog microfiche to images or PDF's. Granted a machine to do this quickly and efficiently is in the 10 to 20 grand range. The process is boring and repetitious and in no way worth the amount some companies want to charge.

  • Trumps wealth depends on him keeping the GOP on his side. The second he loses his lock on them his future is very uncertain. He is already losing more and more ground with the people and unless he can do the old brown shirt thing like hitler in four years he is out.

  • Once people find or develop those alternatives they wont be back for at least a few generations. Trump doesn't understand that other countries can and will find a replacement for US goods and if necessary US customers. I'm sure though some who are in the right position are ready to exploit this for their own gain. Trump is more than a fool he is a tool.

  • I used to raise chickens for eggs. They lay eggs in winter if you have a proper coop. In the summer we had a coop that could be moved. It had wheels and we would move it to a different spot every few days allowing the chicken to forage bugs. It really helped out the yard as well. I would still be doing that if I lived in a place where I could.
