btw, here's some cool old-timey diagrams and pictures from a book titled "Mission hydro-électriques Française en URSS, 22 mai - 5 juin 1962" ("French hydro-electric mission in the USSR, May 22nd - June 5th 1962")

A graph of total electricity production in the USSR, the US, France, and (as an aggregate) countries in the ECSC (european coal and steel community). It has a few nice though clearly handwritten notes, and has a nice hand-drawn red logarithmic grid as a background, but it is somewhat hard to read because of the 3 (three!) different axes, hard-to-differentiate lines, weird data points, and overall over-crowdedness.

A photo of the construction of the Bratsk hydroelectric dam. It's a little blurry and is generally hard to parse thanks to the various construction tools and materials everywhere, though the gigantic scale of the whole operation is hard to miss.

A two-page spread of a diagram of the Volgograd hydro-electric power station, as a vertical slice along the axis of the road above it. It shows a relatively small portion of it, but even as geometric and industrial as it is, it is beautifully shaded, depicts a classic socialist mural as decoration for the dam, shows a few buses using the dam's road, and has a nice square office building as background, with a clock face on it. Of course, it also shows, in silhouettes, the various pumps, engines, and turbines.

Back to committing compositor crimes. (Couple of notes: - Compositor binaries are unchanged. - Yes both screens are touchscreens and work in their respective desktops.)

The picture shown an AYN Thor, a 3ds-like dual screen arm-based android console running linux. The upper screen shows Steam in Big Picture mode with a single detected display, while the lower screen shows plasma settings with a single screen as well. Both show a resolution that match the aspect ratio of the respective displays.

a manga panel with three characters, two of them sitting across from one another with the third, named Kae, in the middle. this their conversation:

A: "Kae's a bit... when the going gets tough, she might not get going, eh?" (outside of the bubble, in smaller font: "Will she be able to deliver...")
B: "I get your doubts"
