  • (solved) What is the best tool to mass resize all images in a directory, including sub-directories, while keeping aspect ratio?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I tested it on some large TIFF datasets I have around. 3x less memory and 4x faster.

  • Like, how many elderly men can't do laundry?

  • Well, this is exactly what I needed for work... we process like 200MB tiffs and imagemagick speed and mem use is an issue

  • Supposedly the Breaking Bad producers intentionally chose an acid that wouldn't work.

  • I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?

  • I'm told that trying a cloth around the neck of a molotov cocktail is as effective and much safer. It will break and ignite as easily.

  • China has planted so many trees around the Taklamakan Desert that it's turned this 'biological void' into a carbon sink

    Jump

  • Yeah. Pioneer species providing shade, soil retention, and water slowing. Very important.

  • Hah, nice.

  • Europe's $24 Trillion Breakup With Visa and Mastercard

  • Be nice if they could set up an etransfer QR code. Generate code at till, scan with bank app or browser, double check the target and amount, submit.

  • Can you do etransfers without having to input an email address? Super annoying to have to set up a payment target every time.

  • u mad?

  • Yeah. Looks like the USD and rouble have been trading fairly evenly the last few years, within about 20%. So they've probably been inflating roughly at the same pace, I guess...

    Regardless it seems like the basic thesis, that Russia doesn't seem likely to have any more room for increasing spending, is accurate.

  • Although I guess a deflated dollar would look like an inflated rouble, and vice versa. On the other hand they can both inflate/deflate relative to yuan or euro.

  • I don't think so... deflated would mean it takes fewer roubles to buy an item, not more. A 100 trillion economy would become a 120 trillion economy on paper with no other changes.

  • The US dollar has inflated like 25% in that period, maybe that is related.

  • Your body adapts. It's mainly down to your gut microbiome being able to handle it.

  • Could possibly buy or make garlic infused salt, then mix the two.
