welcome to my hobby. collecting and saving out of print communist literature in a hopes of digitizing them and making them immortal on the internet.

I like to think that out of all the ways I could emulate Stalin, this one's the best way to honor his memory.

Do you have a rig for book digitizing? I always had an itch to build one when I was in school but I never did

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 25 points 4 months ago

No, I find books and have them sent to my crew to be digitized then archived into our internal library. I know a few other folks in my crew also do similar things with all sorts of media, ranging from old americanized soviet films on those old fashioned film reels to childrens books and magazines to old music composed by the more esoteric parts of communist history.

I think some of the most recent stuff I was a part of in NY was helping one of my crew's digitizing tech specialists in sorting through old Jewish communist literature and pamphlets, Misha magazines, and old communist vinyl record disks and tape cassettes that CPUSA threw away during their liquidation.

very cool! I am thinking about getting a cnc plywood cutter and designing a flat packable ocr rig would be fun

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

Just looking up images of a cnc plywood cutter gives my inner creator nerd warm fuzzies just looking at the neat shit you can make with it

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

Furniture, guillotines, all kinds of neat stuff

I think if I had one I'd try my hand at making a marble racing contraption doohicky and make it as wild as I could make it

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 2 points 4 months ago

I could very easily lose myself in making marble racetracks
