  Realistically? For some stuff American jobs will move back, but I think most of the jobs will just move to other countries that don’t have the scrutiny that China has. Countries like the Philippines which have only a 17% tariff on the new scheme. On top of that, they probably are lower cost for labor and the biggest cost is the factory itself and shipping infrastructure. If a company has to finance a new factory anyways, the Philippines is more attractive than the US.

  And that’s just a random country I picked from the tariff list. I’m sure there some country out there that has the right mix of cheap labor, shipping infrastructure, location, and obscurity that lets it avoid tariffs to the point where most good come from there instead.

  Images from PDFs, wasn’t thinking about that. I normally work with just image files. Cool!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FBI warnings are true—fake file converters do push malware⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What image types are you using that ffmpeg can’t convert? To my knowledge it works for almost anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FBI warnings are true—fake file converters do push malware⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ffmprg is remarkably powerful. If it is a picture on your screen, you can use ffmpeg to do what you want to it. Recently discovered it could convert PNG, jpeg, and webp images back and forth. To think I’ve only used it for video.

  Check your owners manual to see if you have a button to disable “overdrive”, it’s for adverse conditions such as uphill or downhill, off-road or rainy, etc. It prevents the shifting up too early and gives each gear more range to operate in. By default it’s on because it saves fuel, and they make the button hard to find sometimes.

  Technically they have at least 2 “gears”, forward and reverse. But does it really count if all you do is shout at the angry pixies to run the other way?

  Rittenhouse attacked 3 people, that’s 3x the danger. But I guess I forgot to count up their net worths.

  Don’t worry, there’s always that one house that gives out files instead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump Seizes on Walz's 'I'm Friends With School Shooters'⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He probably meant to say “friends with victims of school shooters” or something along those lines. In the original clip the context around it makes that very clear.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What can I do with US$10K that is a good investment?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t rule out a Roth if you only want to save for 5-10 years. You’re allowed to withdraw the principal (initial 10K) at any time for no penalty/cost, so long as it’s recorded properly with the IRS when you withdraw it.
