Some Internet governance, centralisation, and consolidation links for the holiday weekend...

I’m late reading Maria Farrell and Robin Berjon’s “We Need To Rewild The Internet” (https://www.noemamag.com/we-need-to-rewild-the-internet/) but it’s worth reading, and a less pessimistic take on the problems of Internet consolidation and regulation than some. 1/3

Q for those who used to use slide film for photography - WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH YOUR SLIDES?

Or... how have you made them digital? (So you and others can actually view them these days.)

I have hundreds... probably thousands of slides in boxes (and projector trays!) just taking up space in my closets.

How have you digitized your slides?

I know there are machines you can get... and I've heard of services you can just ship all your slides to.

What have you all done?
