In a dimly lit, cluttered workshop in Delhi’s Nehru Place, the air hums with the sound of whirring drills and the crackle of soldering irons. Sushil Prasad, a 35-year-old technician, wipes the sweat off his brow as he carefully pieces together the guts of an old laptop. It is a daily ritual — resurrecting machines by stitching together motherboards, screens, and batteries scavenged from other trashed older laptops and e-waste — to create functional, low-cost devices. “India has always had a rep

The Mexican illustrator José Guadalupe Posada (1852–1913) is best known today for his popularization of calaveras — fully-dressed, grinning skeletons posed as if in the full flush of life.
