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!

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

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.

Y can act as a consonant or a vowel, depending on the position in the word.

Definitely a vowel: Baby

Part of a vowel sound: Play

Not a vowel at all: Yes, lawyer

When a Y starts a syllable, it typically doesn’t take a vowel sound, closer to a “soft j” sound.

I saw a post earlier about Empress returning to game cracking. For modern video games that use Denuvo DRM, she’s the only person who can really crack it, as far as I know. Singlehandedly holding up the AAA game piracy scene.
