We've been getting a lot of questions lately about how the Internet Archive digitizes books.
The short answer: page by page, by hand.
You may remember our viral 2021 video of Eliza Zhang scanning a book. That's still how we do it.
Meet Eliza, and learn how we scan books: https://t.co/gt9s5lbPE4
Book scanners have existed long before AI. In your local data archives, libraries, museums. We've NEVER had to destroy the physical copy to make a digital one. Don't let big tech make you believe otherwise.
I don't think people are talking enough about this scene in Spider-Man: Brand New Day
Technically, Peter Parker dies. That gunshot wasn't something he should've survived.
It wasn't Spider-Man's healing that saved him. It was Jean Grey.
She stayed outside the hospital for hours, using her powers to keep Peter alive. Every heartbeat. Every pulse. Every single breath he took before waking up... Jean was breathing for him.
Frank even points out that Peter shouldn't have survived that wound.
