Small creator who is a friend of mine is getting hurt by the new YouTube algorithm. If you could give his video a watch I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm featuring my favorite photo from each month for the final six days of 2025. Up first: January.
This one isn't technically perfect. It's out of focus. I was running, with an iPhone, in the cold. But it was such a core memory. From the New Years Day aurora substorm.

Facebook’s Meta is back peddling on the open source Horizon OS. I am very disappointed in Meta. They are trimming the fat of their VR departments and now this. Making promises and breaking them is not a way to build trust with your consumers.

ThrillSeeker dropped a new video. He reviews the kickstarter project FLUXPOSE. Looks good as long as as you get the 5 or more tracker setup. Curious how this will be when it comes out. Estimated release time Oct 2026 according to kickstarter.
