Just had to do a HUGE firmware update to the Mavic 4 Pro and RC Pro 2, in the field. I wish there was a way @DJISupport would send us an alert when they drop. Also; still defaulting to Internal storage. I wish they change that option. I always want to save to the microSD.

ngl the drone strapped to gear works so well and probably the best role in the unit

The RCAF received its first two CF35As yesterday at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona. The future of air and space power is built on more than equipment alone.

Came back from military training in South Carolina with a couple of days off, and my three-year-old daughter had one thing on her mind: go take photos of airplanes with Dad. So, we headed up to the base, cameras in hand, and ended up getting incredibly lucky. Here it is, Canada’s first F-35A taking to the skies over Texas. 🇨🇦🇺🇸 Canada is now the next country to enter the fifth-generation fighter world, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the @RCAF_ARC and its transition to the F-35. Pretty special way to spend a day off with my favorite little spotter. ❤️✈️ As always all my photos are free and I will add the Google Drive soon. @AlexHollings52

NEW: McDonald's prices have doubled in the last ten years. The profits have gone mostly to shareholders, who got nearly $40 billion in dividends over the past decade while customers suffer and workers are underpaid. Here's how fast food is the latest victim of enshittification.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

This July, while flying back from a NATO summit in Turkey, President Trump slipped off Air Force One in a catering truck and secretly boarded a different aircraft — leaving traveling reporters to fly on, unaware the president was no longer with them. Instadocs: The Decoy Plane, premiering September 4, unpacks the incident through firsthand accounts from members of the press corps who were aboard Air Force One as well as a former Secret Service agent and a former Air Force One crew member.

An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.
