An important point:
"The higher level is: What do we do with these big corporations? One is we’ve got to subordinate them constitutionally. So corporations should never have equal rights with real people. Now they’re connecting with AI. You want a deadly cocktail? Connect artificial persons called corporations with AI.

Image viewer that remembers last visited image (Linux)

I'm looking for a FOSS image viewer on Linux that remembers the last visited image or lets me set a bookmark of some sort.

Any of it is so much better than listening to an AM radio while I delivered newspapers.
Yesterday I heard a Red Rider song from an album that I had recorded on cassette off FM radio.
I converted whatever music I had into MP3s 20 years ago,
When I was converting LPs to MP3 I did several concept albums which didn't have songs, so I set the length at 6 minutes or less. I was using MP3 Direct Cut which had a bar graph, I could visually chop up albums into songs without actually listening. Over some years I went through my collection & chopped up songs that were too long or have intros longer than 10 seconds, I may or maynot keep the originals. I use the comment field for tags to make it easier include/exclude long, duplicate, alternate versions
I have more than a few copies of music files, including data cd's from 15 years ago, sata hdd, sd cards, nvme. every 6 months or so I renew a couple of the back ups
