Looking back at some of my old decaps compared to one I did recently. Amazing what a difference 15 years of practice makes lol.
The etch is so much more surgical now (and I can preserve copper bond wires which was a pipe dream before - although to be fair back then copper wires were not in common use)
The clipped pin on the recent sample is intentional, you'll find out why in a few weeks

Concerns over Trump’s health are coming to light once again after pictures of the 79-year-old felon showed new dark and crusty bruises on his left hand during his recent visit to Davos, Switzerland
-- different from ones that had previously been captured in his right hand.

Les enfants issus d'OKC ont grandi dans le domaine isolé du Château des Soleils, dans les Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Plusieurs d'entre eux racontent y avoir subi brimades, violences et viols. Malgré les plaintes déposées et une condamnation en Belgique, l'accusé coule des jours tranquilles en Espagne.

In recent months, the federal government has relentlessly prosecuted protesters, government critics, immigrants and others arrested during immigration operations,
👉often accusing them of physically attacking officers or interfering with their duties.
⭐️But many of those cases have recently been dismissed or ended in not guilty verdicts.
In several high-profile cases, the prosecutions fell apart because they relied on statements by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) offic…

What @… says is what a lot of us have been lamenting since the ICE invasion started. Shouldn’t local police protect citizens from ICE?? Why this hasn’t happened is a really good question. Factors to consider:
- “Obstructing a federal agent” is illegal, and local police / politicians feel constrained by that (even if the agents themselves don’t seem constrained by the actual law at all, only by what they think they can get away with)
- Police can in theory cite federal agents for e.g. traffic violations or illegal plate swapping after the fact, as long as they’re not “obstructing” the agents — but how do you cite a masked person with fake plates who refuses to give ID?
- Some police are visibly supportive of ICE, chumming it up with them and giving literal fist bumps; a nontrivial subset are outright closet Nazis. A lot of people don’t really see any need to go past “ACAB” as a full explanation for all of this — and certainly The ACAB Hypothesis is…um, not really being proved false right now in Minneapolis.
- I think some police quietly resent ICE for stepping on their turf, but that does not seem to have boiled up into actual confrontation in MSP. One police leader here painted it in early Dec as “some people want to instigate a confrontation between Minneapolis Police, and that’s not going to happen.” Police culture says that police should be a neutral party in a dispute between ICE and residents, and actually protecting residents would be taking sides. (Duh, yes, taking sides that way is your literal job, you dumbasses…but I digress.)
- Some police (especially leadership) really want to get on the community’s good side after the murder of George Floyd, and see this as an opportunity, but unfortunately this has materialized entirely as non-interventionist support: “We responded to a 911 call and help a distressed resident after her husband was abducted!” “We transported children left parentless on the streets by ICE safely back to their home!” “Our officers volunteered at the food shelf!” OK, nice, good for you buddy.
So yeah, I’m wondering this too, and am bitter about it. https://tilde.zone/@n1xnx/115928447564126393

Leuke analyse van de Volkskrant.
Wat ik alleen volledig mis is de 'logische keus' om Groenland in bezit te willen hebben.
The devil is waarschijnlijk in de details van de bijzondere aardmetalen. Een Amerikaans bedrijf heeft daar al een flinke vinger in de pap bij een van de bedrijven die zich er mee bezig houdt. Maar Groenland heeft een paar problemen:
