It's not exactly a ringing endorsement of the Linux Desktop Experience when the easiest way for me to get images from my scanner is to use the app on my phone and email the pictures to myself ...

It's almost enough to have me set up a Windows box to have one-touch scanning ...

Is there anyone here who has experience scanning books, manga, magazines, etc? How do you do it? What's your setup like? I have a simple flatbed scanner but using that would be way too tedious... So I was looking at other types of scanners... Any recommendations for ones that are fast and reliable?

Some #scanning tips and tricks I wrote back in 2020 that seem appropriate now

This one is pretty specific to Boston and a little out of date, I should really update it since I have some new gear and I _do_ have the federal frequencies in my rotation now

https://farewell-ladmin.com/how-i-monitor-police-comms-during-a-protest/

Federal stuff is (slightly) harder to monitor on the move given the use of P25, as are any frequencies that are outside the standard public safetey ranges (or like #LosAngeles PD both outside the standard ranges _and_ P25). That being said both VHF and UHF XTS's are pretty cheap but DO NOT TRANSMIT on frequencies you are not authorized to transmit on. Also having a radio on you that is probably the exact same radio that the feds are using (XTS are _very_ common) might not be the best idea even if it's totally legal

A lot of major cities have "common" federal frequencies which may or may not be in the clear, Radio Reference is great for these. Some departments (like Boston PD) have a dedicated federal interop channel. Some cities also have dedicated DOJ 25 Cities frequencies.

Other helpful frequencies are the NIFOG ones, especially the LE channels. These are used during things like the Boston Marathon

162-174 MHz (minus 173.20375-173.39625) and 406.1-420 MHz are common frequencies ranges to find itinerant non published federal traffic. Usually in P25 with a variety of NACs

Emulating a scanner using software is a bit of a pain because of P25 though things like sdrtrunk and DSD+ can decode P25

I'm using #NAPS2 for #document #scanning on #Linux now.

One of the (German) #TuxFlash guys published a piece on YouTube …(edit) it was @LinuxGuides.

NAPS2 has a more reasonable GUI/UX than #XSane and it's got #OCR built-in!

Prepping for a NW Chicagoland weekend public service event — Getting a pair of VHF/UHF HT’s ready for some ~100 meter separation simplex comms at the activity. Uniden scanner is for Close Call use (searching for nearby RF transmissions) to see if anyone else is using radios in immediate proximity.

We're in the process of scanning 48 bankers boxes of the MIT MULTICS archive. We'd like to get a decent high speed document scanner to make this process go easier. Can you help us with a donation? https://sdf.org

Once the scanning is complete all of these will be made available online for everyone.

Just released an update for Design Scanner, an app that’s doing surprisingly well in Asia for some reason. I’m a bit curious why it’s not performing as well in Europe, so giving it a little push here 😉. Create 3D models or floor plans using the LiDAR on your iPhone. Not a single line of code written with AI, just a whole app built with care, love, and over 20 years of experience as a game developer.

We spend a lot of time scanning for malware, phishing links, and indicators of compromise.
But the most dangerous breach rarely starts in code.
It starts in behavior. Not malicious behavior. Automatic behavior.
The kind we don’t question because it worked yesterday.
The kind that feels...
