📌 FYI, every now & then we move everything on this webpage to our Offline Servers. We last did so at 9 AM, Tues, Feb 17th, 2026. ----- 📌 BREAKING NEWS : 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Friday, April 10, 2026 You know you're having a Bad Week when even ex-Biden VP Kamala Harris is hinting she will run for President against your political party. And naturally here, we're referring to President Trump. For clarity, the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition does intend to back a candidate for President. Could be a Center-Right Republican, could be a Center-Left Democrat, but more likely, our own candidate NOT affiliated with either of the legacy politcal parties. If Harris thinks she has a chance, CRITCoal's chances should be at least 3x that. Food for thought. On a side note, we've stepped up our efforts to try to secure a First Institutional Investment. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, April 10, 2026 Four things to announce: 1.) We just listened to Benchmark Capital's Bill Gurley on CNBC. It was very refreshing ! He sees things pretty much how we see things. As such, we've added Mr. Gurley to our short list of who we recommend others pay attention to. Dan Niles & Gil Luria are the ONLY others on the list. 2.) We've concluded that as long as Tim & Phil continue to run Apple's App Store, the best Photosets could generate is $1M USD per Year in Sales. By contrast, we estimate Photosets could generate at-least $100M USD per Year (here in the States) in Services Revenue from the ML-based Vertical Market opportunities we're pursuing. And could ultimately be much, much higher than that since those are Data-dependent Use Cases. Clearly a NO Brainer as to where we should focus. 3.) Our current thinking is that we'll offer Photosets' "Premium Capture" sub at $8.99 USD with a 2-year Term. 4.) Cloudy along the coast this morning. We need clear skies late afternoon for our Artemis II plans. Otherwise those plans will fall thru. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 9, 2026 We've decided to release the next update of Photosets as v26.414, rather than v26.3. Where the 414 represents the fact that it's the 414th App Store Approved version of Photosets. Please see the Version History for Photosets in the App Store for how it fits in relative to the others. On a side note, Photosets should be selling like Hot Cakes in Apple's App Store. Especially now that we're weeks into Spring. But Apple would rather heavily discount their M5-based Macs & iPad Pros than Fess Up to a Screw Up. i.e., NOT promoting Photosets when they absolutely should have. If you know Our Story, you know "precisely" what we're referring to. For clarity, it's unique & innovative third-party apps, mostly Camera Apps, that drive enthusiasm for Apple's most-advanced products. OR more correctly, "could" drive. Tim (first) needs to update Apple's App Store Mgmt Team for that to actually happen. It's simply NOT OK for the guy who runs Apple's App Store to have NO Engineering OR Software Development experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. By our count, Apple has left $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years because of their Screw Up. And we're NOT even including "lost" iPad Pro & Mac sales. And BTW, we're extremely surprised the AAPL Board NEVER looked into our complaints. We are afterall, the App Devs of the most-advanced & highest-performance third-party iPhone Camera App. Apple thought they knew better. We've proven, at least technically, they didn't. But they don't want you to know that ! So the battle for the hearts & minds continues. We fully expect to come out victorious in the end. The same cannot be said for President Trump & the hole he dug himself into.

On a side note, a few years ago, we were the ONLY App Dev to "officially object" to an Apple U.S. App Dev Class Action Settlement Agreement. The judge stated that our objection was "without merit". If we had done a better job convincing her, Apple would NOT have left $113B+ USD "on the table". The number could have been much less ! The gist here, the longer it goes on, the more (HW revenue & profit) Apple loses out on. We think Cook should Fess Up the Screw Up & subsequent Cover Up for one very good reason, it would set a good example for President Trump. He would be in a much better place politically if he (i.e., Trump) simply said "I tried, it didn't work out". But probably too late for that now. That would have worked well on Day #5 of his 4-day War plan. i.e., after the Iranians rebuffed Witkoff's WhatApp messages on Day #3. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 9, 2026 Heads Up: We're ready for Photosets to capture the Artemis II re-entry & splashdown 60+ miles off the coast here in San Diego tomorrow at ~5:07 PM ! We have our spot along the ridge line picked out & ready to go. For clarity, it's an Experiment. We make NO guarantees we can pull it off. As a reminder, we'll be using Photosets' 8x Tele support on one of our 17PM iPhones. ● ONLY 717 of the 50.2K Users WorldWide who have downloaded & installed Photosets
have updated to the latest version. ● ONLY 479 of the 13.9K Users here in the States who have downloaded & installed Photosets
have updated to the latest version. Some have missed-out on more than 400 App Store Approved app updates. Go Figure ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 9, 2026 We want to clarify to ALL, but mostly to potential Investors & Corp Partners, that what we're focused on most right now is adding ML-based Tracking support to Photosets. Phase I: Baseball, Softball, Golf, & Female Burst Photo Modeling Phase II: Drones As everyone very-likely knows, ML is Use Case specific. And as such, it takes time to get right. Also for clarity, the items listed in Phase I do NOT require our custom Tripod Servo Adapter. It's ONLY needed for Drone Detection. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 9, 2026 Is today the day ? Those of you who know Our Story should have NO problem reading between the lines. On a side note, it's Crystal Clear to us that President Trump has been, & continues to be,
in Hail Mary mode. As such, we believe the odds are high that he could initiate a False Flag Operation to try to control the upcoming midterm elections. i.e., where the Feds at-least try to take control of the midterms. We ask ALL to become & stay educated ! Also, our two-cents, we believe it's entirely possible that ONLY Center-Right AND/OR Center-Left coalitions have ANY real chance of saving America. The legacy, super-polarized two-party political system here in the States simply does NOT work. It has failed miserably, both under Biden & now under Trump. Ideally, the next Speaker of the House, whether Republican OR Democrat, would be aligned with the principles of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 8, 2026 We've just been informed that Live Demos are a Go for tomorrow ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 8, 2026 The one MAG 7 company we believe is trading at good value is TSLA. We are NOT fans of LLM-based AI. We are however, very BIG fans of Physical AI. And there, Tesla has a cash cow to fund its efforts. Also, for clarity, we believe OpenAI & Anthropic are both tradng 6x higher than they should be, & that SpaceX's IPO is being rumored at $1T USD higher than it should be. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 8, 2026 One more thing to announce. Based-upon what has transpired just this past week, many more people on the planet now know just how much of a Nutcase our U.S. President actually is. He is, without a doubt, his own worst enemy. He simply doesn't have the same Filter that most Rational people have. We think he needs a new Chief of Staff. Someone who isn't afraid to get in his grill when he's wrong. And for clarity, NO ONE here is volunteering. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 8, 2026 A few important things to announce today: 1.) We're NOT out of the woods. Oil, & the Markets, have clearly over-reacted. 2.) Our Iran War grades: Trump & Hegseth get a D-, Iran gets an A-. And if it wasn't for Pakistan's last-minute life-line,
Trump & Hegseth could have received an F=- from us today. Both sides are natually trying to spin it as a Victory. Our Iran War grades ignore that & just evaluate the facts. 3.) If an upstart Center-Right Coalition can't gain traction in such a Polarized & Disfunctional Env,
it isn't worth its salt. That's now our internal War Cry. Time to take back America. 4.) Lots of talk about the 25th Amendment yesterday BEFORE the Pakistani proposal made the News. And we're 100% sure President Trump took notice of it. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4:37 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, April 7, 2026 1.) Please see our News Update of 9:30 AM Monday. 2.) Please see our News Update of 6:45 PM Sunday. 3.) Our advise to Trump, take the heat regarding the Iran Strait Toll. It's a small price to pay for resolving the problem. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4:25 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, April 7, 2026 We "may" have been the root cause of President Trump's threat to wipe-out the Iranian civilization. Specifically, his response to what we've been describing as the Trump 2nd Term Collapse. Simply put, he didn't want that to be his legacy. So he was willing to wipe them ALL out. At least that's how he felt when he sent-out that social media post earlier today. It looks like cooler heads "may" prevail. Although, Iran's response sounds like they will maintain control of the Strait. i.e., the Toll remains. Read everything related to the word "collapse" on this webpage for background. And for clarity, we're student of history & saw a potential parallel with the Late Bronze Age Collapse, which we know well. There's sufficient details on this webpage for anyone to get the gist of it WRT the Iran War. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 1:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, April 7, 2026 Today we're looking into whether it might be possible for Photosets to capture the Artemis II re-entry & splashdown 60+ miles off the coast here in San Diego on Friday at 5:07 PM. Specifically, using Photosets' Tele 8x support on one of our 17PM iPhones. And naturally, because of the distance, attached to our best Tripod. To successfully pull it off we would need to know the precise re-entry trajectory. i.e., for setup purposes. We will do our best to pull it off. We will need the late-Afternoon Wx to cooperate. And BTW, anyone here in San Diego with Photosets on a 17P or 17PM iPhone could be doing the same. On a side note, do you remember when Trump & Hegseth removed the top military lawyers for the Army, Air Force, & Navy. That was Feb 21st of last year. We'll, Boys & Girls, that was very-likely a prelude to what might happen later today. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, April 7, 2026 We're fairly confident that what we've been posting the past few days has made its way to President Trump. We're just hoping it will have a positive impact. And for clarity, it's his use of the word "civilization" earlier today that was the Dead Give Away. We never used it the way he used it earlier today. But we have used it repeatedly since the War began to try to make an important point. Do a search for the word "civilization" on this webpage for background info. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 6, 2026 Tomorrow could be one of the most consequential days in the history of civilizations
over the last 4,000 years OR so. ONLY those who are a student of history will have Insight into "precisely" why. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 6, 2026 President Trump may go down in history as our most-irrational War time U.S. Commander-in-Chief. Make No mistake, the Iranians hold the two most-important cards,
The Strait & their stockpiles of enriched uranium. And that's been driving Trump crazy. Literally ! And we've ALL seen evidence of that in just the past week. As we stated earlier: Iran's NOT gonna blink ! On a side note, it's crystal clear Trump thinks he's Robert McNamara running the Vietnam War effort. Ditto for Sec of War Hegseth. Did they NOT learn anything from that War ? Also on a side note, we're convinced Trump's IN-ability to Fess Up to a Mistake is at the root cause of getting us ALL in trouble. He did, afterall, think it was only going to be a 4-day War. Oops, sounds alot like Putin ! Also on a side note, some of the comments Trump made just today "have the potential" to turn America into a villan. He talks too much. He needs to STFU. Without a doubt, he is his own worst enemy. Trump needs to replace Susie Wiles with someone who isn't afraid to get in his grill when he's wrong. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 6, 2026 Three things to announce: 1.) It will be interesting to see if President Trump follows-thru with his threats to destroy Iranian civilian infrastructure. Iran's NOT gonna blink ! And make NO mistake, if/when Trump follows thru on his threats,
that will "officially mark" the beginning of the Trump 2nd Term Collapse. And Yes, the term is derived from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. And for clarity, we fully expect Iran will retaliate by going after the 56 OR so major desalination plants in the Persian Gulf. It will take many years for the region to recover. As a reminder, the Late Bronze Age Collapse started with a Water Crisis. That triggered a mass migration, which then triggered another mass migration. The exact same thing will very-likely happen. Do you think President Trump has given ANY thought to where tens of millions of Iranians, plus millions of NON-Iranians living in the Persian Gulf countries, may go ? We suspect NOT. 2.) Lots of coverage on Artemis II today. We hate to Rain on their Parade, but NO mention of how much the mission costs OR how much it adds to the U.S. National Debt. 3.) A reminder, the U.S. National Debt just passed $39T USD. Ten years ago it had just passed $19T USD. It is our very strong belief that it's the "accelerating" U.S. National Debt that is the single-greatest National Security Risk to America. And that's ONE BIG REASON why we founded the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition. i.e., to try to help get the word out. Dems were silent under Biden. Republicans are silent under Trump. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 6, 2026 We're NOT proposing anything today, but we do want to post what we think will happen. i.e., "the deal" that will ultimately be Agreed To. To Agree to End the War, in exchange for allowing the IAEA to determine the status & where-abouts of Iran's 60%+ enriched uranium & 10K lbs of 5-20% enriched uranium, & the follow-up recovery (by the IAEA) of that enriched uranium, the International Community will agree that Iran can charge $1 USD per barrel across The Strait, up to $100B USD total, for the sole purpose of rebuilding their country. And naturally, some Toll would also be applied to LNG, Fertilizer, etc.,
until the $100B USD threshold is reached. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 6, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) As promised, we've pivoted Photosets back to its Regular Price. NO ONE (new) got it yesterday at its Discounted Price. Go Figure ! And for clarity, reinforces our very strong belief that we should be focused on the Vertical Market opportunities that we've hinted at. 2.) President Trump is NOT qualified to be our President. Among other things, he doesn't have the Rationale. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, April 5, 2026 A reminder, we're prototying our Drone Detection solution with Photosets running on a 17PM iPhone, attached to a Tripod via a custom PID-based Servo Controller. Do a search for "drone" on this webpage for additional info. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:45 PM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, April 5, 2026 We, OR more specifically, the members of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition, for which we are the Founders, have been brainstorming scenarios that could potentially get President Trump, America, & everyone else on the planet, out of the Hole that Trump dug us ALL into. First, the stick (approach) won't work. We think a carrot is the better approach. Second, the status & where-abouts of Iran's 407 lbs of 60%+ enriched uranium & 10K lbs of 5-20% enriched uranium, remains the Top Priority. And here, the IAEA MUST take the lead. Third, as you are very-likely aware, Iran & Eastern Turkey were experiencing a severe water crisis BEFORE the War. And there-in lies the biggest opportunity. i.e., building desalination plants for Iran. And if done right, they wouldn't have to move their Capital from the North to their Southeast. NOT Rocket Science. That alone would be a BIG bennie. Someone needs to pitch this to Trump so he can think about it, & if he likes it, pitch it to the Iranians. And Make NO Mistake, we expect the Persian Gulf nations to pay for
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, April 5, 2026 To celebrate Easter Sunday,
we've just dropped the price of Photosets from $8.99 USD to ONLY $0.29 USD. That's the Min for Paid Apps. Please note it's very-likely a ONE DAY price change ONLY. If President Trump decides to attack Iranian Power Plants tomorrow, we'll probably keep it for longer. Mostly to put visibility on what we call the
Trump 2nd Term Collapse. We believe it's important for everyone on the planet to prepare for what could be a
Late Bronze Age-like Collapse. Trade-based, Specialist civilizations are Fragile, very Fragile. If the desalination plants in the Middle East are ALL taken-out this upcoming work week, except for Iran, just about everyone living there will be forced to immediately migrate away. That's kind of how the Late Bronze Age Collapse started. It started with a Water Crisis. For clarity, while Iran was already dealing with a severe water crisis BEFORE the War, they only get 3% of their water from their desalination plants. On a side note, the Iranians know they've got Trump by the balls. President Trump's "rant" posts earlier today are proof of that. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, April 4, 2026 Bold prediction time, between the 1st & 2nd Rounds of this month's 2026 NFL Draft, we predict the Packers will package their #52 & #120 picks, plus WR Dontayvion Wicks, plus their 2027 4th Rounder, for the Jets #33 pick. And with that #33 pick, they will select either a DT or a CB. And for clarity, we estimate Wicks has a Draft Value of 96 points, equal to the 1st pick of the 4th round. The deal short-changes the Jets by 14.5 pts, but Wicks would be their WR3. Which makes the trade attractive to them. The Jets currently hold the #2, #16, #33, & #44 picks in the first two rounds. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, April 4, 2026 Regarding our recent announcement: History is about to be made & Photosets is "smack dab" in the middle of it !
We're in the Driver's Seat, but we don't want to Tip our Hand until we're Good n Ready. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, April 3, 2026 It greatly worries us that President Trump and Sec of War Pete Hegseth are in charge of the War effort. On a side note, we're gonna start documenting & publishing "precisely" where the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal) stands. And, when done, we plan to use that to begin recruiting. We were gonna wait till AFTER the midterms, but there's clearly too much urgency now to wait on that. i.e., the new White House Budget Request. For clarity, it's CRITCoal's position that it's the "accelerating" U.S. National Debt that is the
greatest National Security Risk to America. Just passed $39T USD ! Ten years ago it had just passed $19T USD. Off the radar of most, but should NOT be. Ask yourself, when was the last time you heard President Trump
"propose a fix" for the U.S. National Debt problem ? We are UN-aware that he has ever done so. And this is his 2nd Term as President. And now wants to increase the Defense Budget by 40% ! If you know your history, you know Ross Perot had a profound positive impact on the financial health of America back in the 1990s. He put visibility on a topic that was Off the Radar of Most, but should NOT have been. We, via CRITCoal, want to do the same. And for clarity, we've seen NO evidence that President Trump gives a damn about the U.S. National Debt problem. Just the opposite. He wants to pile on. Also for clarity, a 40% increase in the Defense Budget will, we believe, lead to a level of Corruption we've never before seen here in the States. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 2, 2026 Make NO mistake, President Trump's bombing strategy is very-likely turning Iranian civilians against us. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 2, 2026 A reminder, we're working on what we refer to as The Tesla Killer. Today we've made the decision to go with the 3.73 rear axle from Automatics. vs. 3.23 which Manuals come with (stock). Provides a 15% Perf boost ! But there is a tradeoff, increases the Engine's RPM by 15%,
which becomes an issue when driving long distances on the Highway. Consider this, if 90 MPH with 3.23 gearing correlates to 3K RPM,
3.73 gearing would correlate to 3450 RPM. OR, alternatively with 3.73 gearing, 3K RPM would correlate to 76.5 MPH. Also, as a reminder, the 6-speed Manual's sixth gear has a ratio of 0.85:1

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, April 2, 2026 We'll be out at Windansea & Marine St. beaches later today,
Field Testing the next update of Photosets, v26.3. Mostly "dynamic" shoreline Bikini Photo Shoots using the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture (NG MVC) support, which has NOT yet been released to End Users. On a side note, regarding the SpaceX IPO, which we promised to look into, rather than price it at $1.75T USD, we believe Elon should have gone wih NO MORE THAN $750B USD. And Make NO Mistake, the way Elon is moving it thru the system, is a tell-tale sign that he knows the $1.75T USD number is Fantasy.
Regardless, he will do his best to pull off.
Of Note, Full Disclosure won't occur until 15 days before the IPO ! Less than two years ago, in June of 2024, SpaceX had a value of $210B USD. Regarding Tesla, it needs "Fresh Designs". Way overdue. In our opinion, Musk should focus on that, & then have Tesla buy SpaceX at a pre-money of NO MORE THAN $750B USD. That would have good staying power. SpaceX at $1.75T USD is a Total Joke. And BTW, we believe Elon should be talking to CNBC's Phil Le Beauabout what Tesla needs most to bring in new customers. It's NOT Rocket Science, it's Fresh Designs. Even accounting for Musk's baggage, Tesla has left alot of Revenue on the table the past few years because of its stale designs. Very likely even more than the $113B+ USD of high-end iPhone revenue we estimate Apple left on the table over the years because of their App Store screw ups. We know Tim Cook is a Fool, he continues to let Phil Schiller run the App Store, even AFTER we've pointed out the problems. We suspect Elon Musk is also a Fool for NOT updating the Tesla designs. Apple left $113B+ USD of Revenue on the table, & Tesla probably more than that. Now let's compare that $113B USD number to what SpaceX has done, Revenue-wise. It will be interesting to see in June ? when Full Disclosure occurs. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 This is a quick update to our last News Update. And specifically, a follow-up to the last sentence in that News Update. "Also, importantly, it's now Crystal Clear to us that the Iranians are "completely" ignoring Trump." We want to add that President Trump knows he's being "completely" ignored by the Iranians. If you think about it, it perfectly explains why Trump is ALL over the map with his comments regarding his Iran War. If discussions OR better yet negotiations were concrete, he would stick with that. We believe the IRGC wants to stick it to Trump as much as possible. In our 6:30 AM News Update yesterday we stated: "Getting him (i.e., Trump) out of the picture might actually be the single-best option for everyone." We made that statement in reference to our European Allies taking over. If the Iranians are UN-willing to negotiate with Trump, then removing him from the equation may be the ONLY WAY a Settlement could occur. It's been more than twenty years since the last time a U.S. President screwed up so badly. As a reminder, Trump railed against that President for taking America to War. Go Figure ! And because of its impact on the World Economy, Trump's Iran War screw up will very-likely go down as the single-biggest screw-up by a U.S. President. Some countries are very-close to running out of Oil. Paying Iran's (Strait of Horwuz) Toll is their ONLY viable near-term option. If he punts OR walks-away, that Toll will become Trump's legacy. The key part of his legacy. i.e., what people will remember most OR talk about first. NO way to sugar coat it, he's Fucked. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 There is NO way to sugar coat it, President Trump has become Slow Joe 2.0 ! His speech was horrible, absolutely fucking horrible ! We give it an F-- grade. His speech tells us everything we need to know about his IQ & his state of mind. President Trump is delusional, BIG time. It's sad. BIG picture perspective, he just squandered a golden opportunity to provide America with a proper update on the War, plus an honest justification for why He took America to War. We certainly did NOT get that this evening. Just sad. He doesn't have a fucking clue about how to get himself, America, & everyone else on the planet out of the Hole that He dug everyone into. How does that even fucking happen ? His speech this evening was a total fucking disaster. He is so far out in Left Field it's NOT funny, it's scary. Most powerful person on the planet is completely delusional. NO doubt about it, the Trump 2nd Term Collapse is definitely in Full Swing. Also, importantly, it's now Crystal Clear to us that the Iranians are "completely" ignoring Trump. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 Two more things to announce today: 1.) We've been Asked & have Agreed, to explain where Photosets' ML-based Burst Photo Set "Photo Picker" came from. i.e., since we never mentioned it before today. Simply put, it was developed by our R&D Team to expedite verification. And for clarity, we're now looking to turn it into a feature of Photosets. Like everything that's ML-based, it's a Use Case-specific solution. 2.) We don't like the rumor we're hearing regarding Iran's Enriched Uranium. Sounds like President Trump just pivoted on the most-important topic of the War. We rarely listen to Presidential Addresses by President Trump. This time, however, we will ALL be listening very carefully to everything he says. The status & where-abouts of Iran's 907 lbs of 60%+ Enriched Uranium & 10K lbs of 5-20% Enriched Uranium remains the Top Priority. If he punts OR walks-away on this most-important topic of the War, we will use that against him. And by we, we mean the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal),
for which we are the Founders. The Dems are gonna Win Big in November. Few will want the Dems to ALSO RE-take the Executive Branch in Nov. 2028. That's where CRITCoal comes into play. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 2:45 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 It just hit us, did NASA take into account that the Earth (& our Moon) are currently
in the 3i/Atlas debris field ? Probably too late for today's launch, but maybe NOT for the rest of the planned trajectory. And naturally we're referring to Artemis II. Anybody ? As a reminder, Earth has been in the 3i/Atlas debris field since March 8th OR so. You can see evidence of that in the Fireballs seen in the upper atmosphere lately. Off the radar of most but should NOT be. Also, for clarity, we were working on tracking support in Photosets for 3i/Atlas debris back in Nov. We put it on the back burner in Dec, knowning full well that Earth wouldn't be passing thru the 3i/Atlas debris field until the March-April timeframe. And then we completely forgot about it, until late yesterday that is, thanks to a Stefan Burns video on YouTube that we just happened to stumble-across. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 We just listened to CNBC's Deirdre Bosa give her two-cents regarding Apple's
App Store Vibe Coding stance. In our opinion, "she's dead wrong, it's crystal clear to us she doesn't know anything about the topic" Apple's ONLY screw on the subject is that they didn't put their Foot Down months ago. And BTW, we used to have a very high opinion of CNBC's Bosa, but NOT NO more. She's too convinced she's right, when we're 100% convinced she's wrong. There's real danger when NON-technical individuals in positions of influence
give their two-cents regarding AI & ML. We believe the current state of AI & ML is at the B- level. And since much of it is based-upon public data, as more as more AI-generated data floods the internet & elsewhere, the quality will very-likely go Down, NOT Up, over time. It's a significant problem ! We may be at OR very-near peak AI & ML. At least WRT publicly-Available data. WRT insight into AI & ML, CNBC has become a Joke. We've said it before, we'll say it again, they need to change their name to "CNBC for Dummies". On a side note, once the data for SpaceX's IPO becomes publicly available, we'll publish our estimate of what we believe their true value is. Here's a hint, probaby NO WHERE close to the IPO's rumored $1.75T USD. 6x over like the others ? Possibly. Even Jim Cramer has raised the caution flag on this one. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, April 1, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to provide a Quick Overview of our BIG picture perspective. First, our top priority is building-up credibility in the Vertical Markets we've hinted at. Second, we believe the market values of the "private" AI companies over-shot by 6x. And that includes OpenAI, Anthropic, etc, plus ALL of the Vibe Coding startups. There is value in AI & ML. It's just that it was significantly over-Hyped. By our estimate, to the tune of 6x. And importantly, we believe CNBC is mostly to blame. Third, because NONE of the "private" AI companies have a Moat, we believe they will be open to partnering with companies who can help them start creating one. And that Boys & Girls comes down to "high-value custom Data". Specifically, WRT what we're up to, Use Case-specific Burst Photo Sets captured & annotated by experts. Do you remember the quote Bill Clinton used to get elected ? i.e., "it's the Economy Stupid". We'll, we're using something similar, "it's the Data Stupid". Fourth, nothing we can do will fix Apple's App Store. It's strictly up to Tim Cook & Phil Schiller. As a reminder, by our estimate, Apple has left $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years because of their stance on (just) Photosets. You think they want that getting out ? It may take the AAPL Board Chairman to fix the problem. We're NOT holding out hope, & that's why we've pivoted our focus to select Vertical Market opportunities.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 We stumbled across this Apple App Store Vibe Code article on CNBC and felt compelled to comment. link to the article We are 100% behind Apple's stance. They know what they are doing on this topic. And if you know Our Story, you know we're NOT fans of everything they do. Also, we believe the article illustrates the dangers of two individuals with NO real Engineering OR Software Development experience giving their two-cents on something neoteric & technical that has captured the attention of the Market & Investors. Vibe Coding is fine for producing a Quick & Dirty prototype. For things it's good at, it can get you 85% of the way there. As such, it can ONLY be used effectively in fields for which the Devs are
ALREADY at-least somewhat experts. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 Now that v26.2 has been released, we're kicking off Photosets' first-ever Marketing & Branding Campaign ! And for clarity, while we did NOT enable the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture support to End Users in the v26.2 release, it's at the very core of our Marketing & Branding Campaign. Think of it as a fancy Remote Shutter Controller. Over the next month OR so, we'll be showcasing its features & capabilities with baseball, softball, & "dynamic" shoreline bikini photo shoots. Those represent just three of the many Use Cases it can be used for. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11:15 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 Market manipulation is clearly in Full Swing this morning. For the record, we're aware that Witkoff has been sending WhatsApp messages to the Iranians "since Day #3 of the War" ! And naturally instructed to begin doing so on Day #3 by President Trump. The Market sure is Dumb today ! Make NO mistake, the IRGC runs the show in Iran, NOT the Iranian President. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 One more thing to announce. A day OR two ago we heard a White House rumor that "President Trump is bored with the War". Let that sink in. 'Cause it very-well could determine what happens next. On a side note, today we noticed that California Rep. Kevin Kiley pivoted from the GOP to Independent. And, importantly, he still caucuses with the Republicans. We think it's a really smart move on his part. Really smart ! We can see many more Reps doing the exact same thing. Except for perhaps 25% or so of Americans, we believe President Trump has become extremely toxic to one's politcal ambitions. That shouldn't be news to anyone. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 If President Trump does in-deed claim "Mission Accomplished" later this week as we expect, we'll need to RE-visit the Perf of our planned E90 M3 Lite. i.e., as we stated just a day OR two ago, trading some Perf for better mileage.
This table reflects our pre-War thinking. If the Strait remains closed AFTER the War, OR if there is a (new) Iranian-Managed Toll,
we'll (naturally) need to trade some Perf for better mileage. We won't know the proper trade off until AFTER the Strait gets resolved.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 31, 2026 We plan to release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, later today. Hopefully with new App Store screenshots, but we make NO promises. We need the Wx to improve along the coast for today's planned Bikini Photo Shoot. Otherwise we'll need to delay that. On a side note, it appears President Trump is preparing to use the anti-Colin Powell doctrine WRT his Iran War. i.e., "I broke it, but you now own it" Our take, it could actually work. NO ONE wants to deal with Trump. NOT Iran, NOT most of our allies. NOT Rocket Science, everyone knows Trump doesn't do strategy, & has the attention span of a gnat. Getting him out of the picture might actually be the single-best option for everyone. And, make NO mistake, it will go down in History as a humiliating defeat for President Trump. But he will try to spin it as a win with MAGA. Good luck with that. We believe most in MAGA who have back'd Trump over the years have done so because of their hatred of the Dems, NOT because they liked Trump. He had simply been the flag-bearer for their cause. We doubt that continues. The key point, even though the status & where-abouts of Iran's Enriched Uranium remains UN-known, & the Strait remains closed, we now fully expect President Trump to declare "Mission Accomplished" sometime this week. And for the record, we stand by our claim that Trump thought it was going to be a 4-day War. Israel, Witkoff, & Kushner, deserve their fair share of the blame (for that). We believe they took advantage of the fact that Trump has the "Wannabe Hero" personality type. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 30, 2026 First, we want to make it Crystal Clear to ALL that if we execute according to plan, we fully expect President Trump to back the Center-Right Independent Thinker Coalition's 2028 Presidential candidate. That's because we represent a much better alternative to the Dems retaking the Executive branch. Second, if Trump makes the wrong move, the War could quickly spiral out of control. And that's why we're putting out the word of a Late Bronze Age-like Collapse possibility. Consider this, a mass migration of Iranians out of their country will look to historians as the 2nd coming of the Sea Peoples. And potentially having the same consequences. ONLY those who are a Student of History will have such Insight. And let us NOT forget, Iran & Eastern Turkey were already dealing with a severe water crisis BEFORE the War. Third, we heard something on TV today that caught our attention. We're paraphrashing here: "If Trump is lying about negotiations with the Iranians, they know it, & will use that to their advantage" If true, so much for Trump's Art of the Deal. Fourth, to us, the status & where-about of Iran's 970 lbs of 60%+ Enriched Uranium & 10K lbs of 5-20% Enriched Uranium remains the Top Priority. And we want the IAEA to take the lead. So this is what we propose: An immediate 30-day ceasefire, including Israel, in which the IAEA takes the lead in determining the status & where-abouts of that Enriched Uranium. During the ceasefile, interested parties can negotiate a solution to the Strait. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 30, 2026 Quick update to our earlier News Update. We forgot to mention something else that's important that we hope to (also) educate about. Something that NO ONE but us appears to be thinking about. The dangers of having a U.S. President who has the "Wannabe Hero" personality type. We see that as the root cause for the mess we're currently ALL in. It made it too easy for Israel & the Gulf States to convince President Trump to attack Iran. Of course, at the time he was convinced it was ONLY gonna be a 4-day War. But on the third day, when the Iranians refuffed Witkoff's WhatsApp attempts, it very-likely became crystal clear to Trump AND his inner circle that they potentially significantly misjudged. And just like Putin with his Ukraine War, Trump didn't leave himself an Exit Strategy. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 30, 2026 ALL goes well, Cosmosent Labs Inc. will soon have three "overlapping" Divisions: ● Photosets (& companion macOS apps) ● Drone Detection ● E90 M3 Lite (& companion N52B30 Alusil cylinder wall "Reconditiong Service")
And by overlapping, we simply mean ALL of our Engineers will have tasks in ALL three. And for clarity, ALL of our Software Developers have a BSEE degree from a Top University here in the States, most from Cal Poly, SLO. On a side note, today we are announcing that we've step'd-up our efforts to recruit select Females for our upcoming Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire. What's new with it is that we now plan to tie it into what we believe could go down in history as the "Trump 2nd Term Collapse". And Yes, we coined the term & the term is derived from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. Our primary goal with it is to get people thinking. i.e., that trade-based Specialist civilizations are fragile, very fragile. Our secondary goal is to educate voters here in the States that it's in ALL of our best interest for our next U.S. President to be Fact & Science-based. And hopefully, aligned with the principles of our Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 29, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to write up a proposal for porting Photosets to a custom PID Servo-based Drone Detector. For clarity, it's something we looked into about 18 months ago. But were UN-able to secure funding for at that time. Times are different now. Also, for clarity, you would never know it by its status in Tim Cook's App Store, but Photosets is Light Years Ahead of ALL other Camera Apps in Burst Photo Technology & Domain/Application/Use-Case support. And has been for many years ! Why Tim Cook wasn't replaced as Apple's CEO shortly-after the release of the 2017 iPhone X is something we believe the AAPL Board will soon need to explain to its shareholders. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 28, 2026 Make NO mistake, President Trump's War of Choice has become a War of Necessity. And there is NO easy way out for him, (us) Americans, OR everyone else on the planet. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 27, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) Our top priority today is completing & publishing the first-cut of our 3"x5" Photosets User Guide. 2.) Just like Tim Cook & Phil Schiller dug Apple into a hole because of their Screw Ups, President Trump has dug himself, America, & the entire planet into a hole because of his Screw Ups. The former is strictly related to our Photosets. The latter is related to our Photosets ONLY in a tangential way. Specifically, we are the Founders of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal). Our goal is to provide an alternative to the legacy, super-polarized two-party Political System here in the States. And for clarity, we believe it's the accelerating U.S. National Debt that is the single-greatest National Security Risk to our United States of America. Just crossed $39T USD. Ten years ago it had just crossed $19T USD. Off the Radar of most, but should NOT be. ALL goes well, our next U.S. President will be aligned with the principles of CRITCoal. Read that to mean Fact & Science-based Center-Right, NOT Far-Right, & NOT Far-Left. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 26, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) History will NOT be kind to President Trump OR to his Republican "enablers". Make NO mistake, the "Trump 2nd Term Collapse" is in full swing. And Yes, the term is derived from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. If you know your history you'll see the parallel. We may just be days away from it becoming obvious to most. Some countries will soon completely run out of Oil. 2.) Today, we spent most of the day in meetings with Piston Ring manufacturers. And naturally for our planned BMW N52B30 Alusil cylinder wall "Reconditioning Service". Which naturally also applies to our planned E90 M3 Lite.
This table reflects our pre-War strategy. If Gas Prices stay High OR go Higher, we'll need to reconsider our Perf Goals. i.e., trade some Perf for higher Mileage. For both cases, the choice of Piston Rings matters.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 26, 2026 While hiking yesterday during a Team Builder exercise, we encountered a Rattle Snake on the path to Pyles Peak & instantly discovered a new Use Case for Photosets' NG MVC. Let's say you want to photograph something but you don't want to get too close to it while doing so. We hadn't really considered that prior to yesterday. As a reminder, NG MVC stands for Next-Gen Multi View Capture. And for clarity, we've NOT yet released it. We're still Refining the UI and Field Testing the solution. The ALL-important low-level code works well ! Also for clarity, we won't release it until we figure-out why ONLY 533 of the 13.9K here in the States who have downloaded & installed Photosets have updated to the latest version. i.e., v26.1. As you very-likely know, Apple "typically" sends-out Notifications to End Users informing them that an Update is Available. Apple's so-called updated App Store Connect "Analytics" don't tell us if OR when
Apple sent-out Notifications. They didn't before they updated their Analytics & they still don't. Go Figure ! We suspect some Photosets' End User may have missed-out on hundreds
of App Store Approved updates ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 25, 2026 Today, we moved our BMW N52B30 Alusil cylinder wall "Reconditioning Service" from the Back Burner back to the Front Burner. For clarity, it's an R&D project. The catalyst for the move was/is the High Gas Prices here in San Diego. As a reminder, it targets an UN-tap'd Billion Dollar Plus market opportunity. The gist, we want to be Ready to Go if Gas Prices stay high, OR go higher. Our solution is intended to fix the #1 problem with high-mileage N52B30 engines, high oil consumption. Many Auto & Machine Shops can R&R valve stem oil seals, the lesser of the two high oil consumption sources, but to our knowledge, there are NO Auto OR Machine Shops that can recondition the N52B30's Alusil cylinder walls. NOT a single one on the planet ! And certainly NOT in volume. As a reminder, the TAM is ~1M Engine Blocks. And that's just the particular engine we're targeting first. Some background: Our founder drives our E90 M3 Lite prototype as his Daily Driver. We had the engine's Cylinder Head rebuilt this time last year. Next up is the Engine Block. The stock low-tension piston rings started failing around 200K miles. The car, & engine, is now at 223K miles. The engine runs exceptionally well, but consumes alot of oil. Even after the Valve Stem Oil Seal R&R job. Which was absolutely needed, but did NOT solve the problem sufficiently enough. The piston rings need to be R&R'd. And because of the special nature of the cylinder walls, they need to properly reconditioned BEFORE new rings are installed. Also as a reminder, we plan to do the first 100 engine blocks manually, and then pivot to our planned
ML-based Specialty Robot. We've hinted at this plan numerous times over the past year OR so. Do a search for Alusil on our News webpage. The BIG picture, we're planning for five sites that will enable us to do up-to 100K engine blocks per year, with the service priced at $10K USD. At that point, we'll be know as the Specialty Car Company with the
Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 25, 2026 The updated App Store Analytics do NOT tell us when Apple last sent-out a Notification to Photosets Users informing them that an update is available ! ONLY 530 of the 13.9K here in the States who have downloaded & installed Photosets have updated to the latest version ! Are we to assume that 13.9K - 530 of them have died ? Tim Cook, what say you ? To ALL others, including the members of the AAPL Board, Apple's App Store needs serious fixing ! And if we were running the show, we'd put a new guy in charge at the top. Phil isn't cutting it ! On a side note, the MLB season kicks off later today. First game of the season ONLY available on Netflix. We mention this because Baseball (& Softball) is one of the very first veritical markets we're pursuing. We're NOT ready to unveil anything today, but we're getting close. Also, we may tie it into our upcoming NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets, OR we may NOT. It's a NON-trivial Business Strategy Decision. One that we hope to decide very soon. There are Pros & Cons for both cases. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 24, 2026 If nothing changes between now & then, we're convinced the U.S. military will invade Kharg Island shortly-after the Markets close on Friday. 4 PM Eastern correlates to 11:30 PM in Tehran. And for clarity, we're also convinced the Iranians know it. And we don't just mean the Regime, we also mean the Iranian Citizens. Both believe any negotiations this week would simply be a Ruse. Just like the previous two times before being attacked. We've done our research. And we're confident in what we're stating. Now, we believe it's time to prepare for the consequences. It could work out, OR it could go sideways. It's High-Risk, High-Reward. As we've already mentioned, it would give the U.S something valuable to trade for access to Iran's Enriched Uranium sites, plus opening-up the Strait. Our adivse to Trump, you need to immediately remove Witkoff & Kushner from any negotiations. That's the ONLY hope of something working out this week ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 24, 2026 We're continuing to work on the roles our upcoming NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets could play
WRT "annotating & sharing" Burst Photo Sets. i.e., for ML Use Cases. As we stated yesterday, if ALL continues to go well, we plan to make it a centerprice of our Business Strategy. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:05 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 23, 2026 Some confirmation of what we posted earlier just came out. i.e., from the Iranians. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 23, 2026 Heads Up, if ALL continues to go well, we plan to make our NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets a centerprice of our Business Strategy. Simply put, it has the potential to drive enthusiasm for Photosets UN-like anything we could do INSIDE Apple's App Store. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 23, 2026 We're continuing to look-into what role our upcoming NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets could play
WRT "annotating & sharing" Burst Photo Sets. i.e., for ML Use Cases. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:45 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 23, 2026 We just listened to President Trump. i.e., next to Air Force One. We think he made it all up ! Mostly to get himself out of a bind. i.e., his 48-hour Ultimatium to attack Iran's Energy facilities. But also, to try to give himself more time to try to figure-out an Out, with less heat. i.e., based-upon mainstream Media here in the States believing what he just said. Which they always do. Plus, we're sure Trump hopes some leaders in Iran will run with it. i.e., his Wish List. Our take, even though we believe Trump made it all up,
we do believe it has a chance of actually working. We're sure Iran's leaders would like to get out of the mess
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 22, 2026 One more thing to announce today. We want to clarify to potential Investors & Corp Partners, that we believe we missed-out-on $120M USD in Photosets Unit Sales over the past ten years, & which correlates to the $113B+ USD of (mostly high-end) iPhone revenue we believe Apple left on the table over the same period. i.e., due to Apple's App Store actions. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 22, 2026 One more thing to announce today. NOT Rocket Science, we see alot of value in being Responsible for, & getting Credit for, the Complete Break Up of Apple's App Store. And for clarity, we want everyone to know that Apple dug themselves into the hold that they are in. Our main contribution was simply Best-in-Class Insight & Perseverance. On a side note, we just drop'd the price of the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets to ONE U.S. Buck. Temporary price change only, however. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 22, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to clarify what we meant by the App Devs behind the Halide Camera App took advantage of the fact that Phil Schiller runs Apple's App Store. Specifically, we posted on macrumors.com that we believed Apple has NO so-called Editors covering the Photo & Video category, & that it was most-likely Phil Schiller making the calls on his own. The App Devs behind Halide either figured that out on their own, OR read what we posted. Irrespective, just like us, they concluded that Apple would very-likely NOT create competition for apps that Phil had recommended. And thus, we believe the App Devs behind the Halide app used that to comfortably Re-price their app from $5.99 USD to $59.99 USD. And for the record, the reasons they gave for the price increase was, in our opinion, Total BS. The reason is Phil Schiller runs Apple's App Store. Ask yourself, why does a man with NO Engineering OR Software Deveopment experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise run Apple's App Store ? Our guess, Tim Cook doesn't want the per-Category numbers getting out. And doesn't want the General Public to know how few apps are doing financially well. On a side note, it may to too late for the AAPL Board to fix the problem. AI & ML has taken over. And by that we mean Dev enthusiasm. Also, just like Schiller, Cook has NO Engineering OR Software Deveopment experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. If CNBC reported on just half of what we know, AAPL shareholders would be up in arms. They would force Tim Cook out. And probably half the members of the AAPL Board. It's NO OK to leave $113B+ USD of (mostly high-end) iPhone revenue on the table over the years. Ives ?, Munster ?, where the F#%k have you been ? On CNBC almost every week, but NO real Insight into Apple. The blind leading the blind. We've said it before, we'll say it again, CNBC should be forced to change their name for one entire workweek, to "CNBC for Dummies". For the record, we think it's time for the AAPL Board to announce Tim Cook's retirement date. The Cover Up has gone on long enough. Don't wait for high-end iPhone owners to (also) be up in arms. NO doubt, when they find out the facts, they will feel Apple cheated them. i.e., out of the benefits that Photosets & the other Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps offer. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 22, 2026 Four things to announce: 1.) This morning, we learned that it wasn't just Trump who thought Iran's regime would collapse immediately after the initial airstrikes of the War that took-out their leadership, Netanyahu also thought so. To that we want to add, this isn't the first time the leaders of two countries whose political careers were on thin ice, got together to try to salvage their careers. UN-like mainstream media here in the States, we don't go off on a wild goose chase every time Trump AND/OR Netanyahu says something. We look at things from a practical, common sense perspective. Aided by analyzing WW News outside the mainstream media here in the States. We encourage ALL others here in the States to do the same. 2.) This morning we also learned that Ukraine has 1M "annotated" images for their anti-Drone efforts ! That got us thinking this morning, NOT about anti-Drone Tech, but "annotated" images in general. And specifically, what role our upcoming NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets could play. We've begun brainstorming precisely that this morning. 3.) The ultimatium that Trump made to Iran's new leadership late yesterday has boxed himself in. What he does next is the most-important decision of his life. If he follows-thru on his ultimatium, things could quickly go sideways. 4.) CRITCoal remains a NO on ANY War Supplemental. For one, we believe the $200B USD would just give Trump the runway to start more Wars. For two, we believe it's the accelerating U.S. National Debt that remains
the greatest National Security Risk to the U.S. Recently passed $39T USD. Ten years ago today it was $19.2T USD. Off the radar of most, but should NOT be. For the record, CRITCoal is 100% aligned with what Rep. Lauren Boebert recently stated regarding the $200B War Supplemental. i.e., a Hard NO. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 21, 2026 Three more things to announce today: 1.) A reminder, we predict Historians will remember it as the: Trump 2nd Term Collapse™ As Yes, the term is derived from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. If you're unfamiliar with it, we highly-recommend you look into it. That's 1177 BCE, OR there-abouts. Trade-based, Specialist civilizations are fragile, very fragile. And BTW, we're mentioning this this evening because there's more talk late today of Oil possibly hitting $175 USD per barrel & NOT going back-below $100 USD per barrel until the end of NEXT year. See United Airlines for reference. Also, for the record, we have a 2nd name for it, Trump's Failed 4-Day War. It involved Steve Witkoff & WhatsApp attempts on the 3rd Day of the War. Which were rebuffed by the Iranians. Knowing that is key to knowing "precisely" why Trump, America, & the entire planet, is in the mess that it's in. Which begs the question, is President Trump actually Alfred E. Neuman ? i.e., "What, me worry?" 2.) The NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets that we announced earlier today may become core to our Business Strategy, OR it may simply be an R&D Experiment. It's too early to tell. In part because how we want to use it is very-likely very-different than how ALL others intend to use it. We won't know for sure (if it works for us) until we have our Quick & Dirty Prototype (Fully) Up & Running. We really like the concept ! 3.) Regarding the Developers of the Halide Camera App, they took advantage of the fact that Apple had, & maybe still has, NO so-called App Store Editors covering Camera Apps. Need proof ? Halide used to be priced at $5.99 USD. When they figured-out what we knew, possibly because we posted as such on macrumors.com, they bump'd-up the price to $59.99 USD. And gave a Total BS reason for doing so. Apple NEVER countered that ! Simply put, they took advantage of the fact that Phil Schiller runs the App Store. He is in NO way qualifed to run Apple's App Store. NEVER has been ! We've proven that to the tune of $113B+ USD. And BTW, Cover Ups ALWAYS get people in trouble. They would have been much better off Fessing Up, Paying Up, & Moving On. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 21, 2026 One more thing to announce today. A clarification for those who don't know Our Story. Photosets could have & very-likely should have become the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App SHORTLY AFTER the release of the 2016 iPhone 7+. The details of Our Story will very-likely shock many. Including AAPL shareholders, & the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service provider & product partners. $113B USD is the one number we want everyone to focus on. That's how much high-end iPhone revenue we believe Apple left on the table over the years because of their App Store actions.
The Gist, we knew more about their iPhone TAM than they did, & when we pointed that out, & how much they very-likely left on the table, they probably didn't like that. The root cause, Tim & Phil have NO Engineering OR Software Development experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. Photos on one end, Videos on the other end, & Burst Photos, preferably captured with High-Precision Timing, in the middle. Apple has done well on the ends but piss-poor in the middle. Also, importantly, the AAPL Board should have known better.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 21, 2026 Apple Mgmt appears to be really worried about us this morning ! As it appears they've even told Google to do whatever they can to suppress knowledge of Photosets. And for clarity, hard for us to tell if it's because of what we stated earlier regarding our NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets, OR the News out this morning regarding the App Developers behind the Halide Camera App, one of which is now back at work at Apple. OR, perhaps it's a combo of the two topics. Either way, Apple Mgmt appears to be "running scared" this morning. For clarity, in the past, we've posted that we believe Lux had received UN-warranted preferential treatment from Apple's App Store. And when we found out that the one Lux co-founder who is now working at Apple, had worked there in the past, it naturally reinforced our belief. And we posted as such. Make NO mistake, it could be used to help break up Apple's App Store monopoly. We know it, & we believe Apple knows it. Consider this, you think President Trump might like to champion our cause ? We certainly think so, & we're convinced that is precisely one thing Apple Mgmt is worried about. And thus the suppression of Photosets & Our Story. It's NOT OK for Apple to suppress American innovation, especially when an American company is at the very fore-front a a Technology, FULL STOP ! Tim Cook wants to remain Apple's CEO. We'll, that may NOT be his call for much longer. The AAPL Board may need to soon make a very important decision. When it comes down to "it's either him, OR us," you know how they're ALL gonna vote. You heard it here first. Our advise to Cook & the other members of the AAPL Board, Fess Up, Pay Up, & Move On. It's NOT that complicated. You know our number. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 21, 2026 Heads Up, we're fast tracking a Unique & Innovative NanoClaw-based companion for Photosets ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 20, 2026 Late yesterday, we discovered that President Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff tried to contact the Iranians (via WhatsApp) on Day 3 of the War, but was rebuffed. Make NO mistake, (it appears) Trump's War with Iran dug himself, America, & the entire planet, into a hole he very-likely thought he could get out of on Day 4 of the War. Today is Day 21 of Trump's Iran War. There is NO way to sugar coat it, President Trump will very-likely go down in history as our dumbest President ever. But there is a silver lining. We believe his actions will give rise to Center-Right AND Center-Left political parties. Also, correcting something we stated yesterday, this year's U.S. Defense budget is $901B USD. It's Trump's push for raising that to $1.5T USD where the 50%+ number comes from. Also, it was exactly one week ago that we coined the term Trump's 2nd Term Collapse™. And Yes, it's derived from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. Iran already had a problem with Water before the War. If a Civil War breaks out in Iran, a significant number of the 93M who live there will migrate elsewhere. i.e., they will flood into neighboring countries. If you know your History, that's similar to how the Late Bronze Age Collapse actually started. Yep, known as the Sea Peoples. For some UN-known reason, mainstream media isn't reporting on any of this ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 19, 2026 We "may" need to Poke the Bear. And naturally, we're referring to President Trump. We're NOT happy with how things are going. And by we, we mean the Founders of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal). And for clarity, by Poke, we mean "describe in detail" precisely what we think has been going on. For starters, we believe Trump decided to attack Iran simply because he has the "Wanna Be Hero" personality-type & thought he could bully them into submission. And for clarity, there was NO imminent threat. How could there be if everything was "... completely and totally obliterated" (last June) ? Irrespective of that, the status & where-abouts of Iran's ~907 lbs of 60%+ enriched uranium AND 10K lbs of 5-20% enriched uranium, remains "the Top Priotiy". Also, the loss of the Ag products derived from Gas production (because of the War) are
still NOT getting enough attention. Also, for the record, we are NOT in favor of our U.S. Congress granting the $200B USD requested today by the Pentagon. The U.S. National Debt just passed $39T USD ! Ten years ago today is was $19.2T USD. The greatest threat to the U.S. is the accelerating U.S. National Debt ! Off the radar of most, but should NOT be. For the Record, CRITCoal is a NO on ANY War Supplemental. Let us NOT forget that the U.S. Defense Budget just went up by 50%. Is it NOT the Sec Def's responsibility to make sure the money is being spent wisely ? Perhaps CRITCoal needs to start monitoring where the money is spent. Now that would be one way to Poke the Bear. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 19, 2026 The Team wasn't happy with Mgmt's decision yesterday to pivot the price of the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets to the Bare Min for Paid Apps. As such, Mgmt decided this morning to pivot the price back-up to 2/3 of its Regular Price. And BTW, NO ONE got it at its reduced price. Go Figure ! In a way it reinforces the company's strategy to Go Vertical
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 18, 2026 In preparation for the release of the next update of Photosets, v26.2, & the kick off of Photosets' first-ever Marketing & Branding Campaign, we've just dropped the price of the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets to the Bare Min for Paid Apps, $0.29 USD. Net for us is $0.25 USD per sale. For every 100M units sold we'd net $25M USD. With Apple's assistance, we'd easily hit that Photosets Unit Sales number. And for clariy, we're geared-up for Spring Break & March Madness. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 18, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) The Team is working hard to release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, & kick off Photosets' first-ever Marketing & Branding Campaign. The War complicates the timing of both. 2.) We want to add our two-cents regarding this App Store-related article on MacRumors: link to App Store-related article on MacRumors We see it as a double-edge sword. With the key point being: Apple's developer agreement gives it the right to remove any app from the App Store at any time,
"with or without cause." It's the "without cause" part that should give every App Dev Mgmt Team pause. We strongly believe it's in Apple's best interest to change that BEFORE it becomes Common Knowledge with most others. It will give others pause. How many is hard to know, but Apple is competing with AI & ML Dev OUTSIDE of the App Store. And for clarity, we're NOT too worried because: 1.) While Photosets hasn't done well in Apple's App Store, it is Light Years Ahead of ALL other Camera Apps in Burst Photo Technology & Domain/Application/Use-Case support. And has been for many years. We strongly believe most High-End iPhone owners would like to know why it was never recommend OR promoted by Apple's App Store. We also believe that holds true for most AAPL shareholders & the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service & product "partners". 2.) There may have been a Fudiciary Duty violation OR two along the way. NO way does Tim Cook OR the other members of the AAPL Board want that getting out. If you know Our Story you know "precisely' what we're talking about. 3.) Photosets represents American innovation. i.e., an American company at the very fore-front of a Camera App technology. You think President Trump might like to know that ? We certainly do. 4.) Tim Cook has alot of challenges with running Apple right now. The last thing we believe he wants to do is diminish third-party enthusiasm for developing iPhone, iPad, & Mac apps. We personally beleive Tim Cook should be throwing money at the problem. i.e., as Grants to increase Dev enthusiasm. It's Dev enthusiasm, OR the lack there-of, that we believe Tim Cook should be prioritizing. He's in a competitive race with AI & ML (OUTSIDE of the Apple ecosystem).
-----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 17, 2026 We've decided to Hold Off on Photosets' first-ever Marketing & Branding Campaign. We fear the War could quickly go sideways in just the next day OR two. As you probaby know, the USS Tripoli (LHA-7) passed thru the Strait of Malacca today. Also, for the record, we're very worried about President Trump's state of mind. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 16, 2026 The best thing we saw today: The Trump Report "Trump in Trouble" "He's probably alive. Former Iranian diplomat rejects Trump's claim Iran's new leader is dead." It's brand-new, 33 minutes long, very Educational & with good Insight. We highly-recommend everyone watch the entire thing. We're gonna now work the back channels & see if we can get it presented to President Trump. We think Trump will listen to the guy. He's probably even alittle older than Trump. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 16, 2026 Heads Up, you'll need to be at least 16 years old to access our upcoming Cosmosent App Store. See our relevant News Update of yesterday for an Overview. To Investors & Corp Partners, we want to clarify that Apple's focus & obsession on apps for the Young & the Dumb drove most Adults away from their App Store, thus creating significant opportunity for others. We intend to fill the void, starting first with Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps. Photos on one end, Videos on the other end, & Burst Photos, preferably captured with High-Precision Timing, in the middle. Apple has done well on the ends, but Piss-Poor in the middle. To the AAPL Board, if you haven't already, recommend you talk to Cook & Schiller about Our Story. Once Our Story becomes common knowledge, you're very-likely gonna have to make some quick decisions. It's simply NOT OK for Apple to suppress American innovation. And certainly NOT when an American company is at the very fore-front of a Technology. It's NOT our fault that Cook picked a Half-Wit to run Apple's App Store. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 16, 2026 The next update of Photosets, v26.2, out soon, (optionally) embeds the GPS-based timecode into the Metadata of each captured photo (on select iPhones AND ONLY when the iPhone is actively participating as a Next-Gen Multi View Capture "slave"). Also, we've decided NOT to move forward with our current HW-based Genlock solution (at the present time). We have some brand-new ideas for it that we want to look into first. Also, for clarity, our Distributed Mixture of Experts (DMoE) solution that we've hinted at runs on top of
Next-Gen Multi View Capture. With each (Expert) basically being a particular ML-based Specialist. With our GDB Detector being the first we plan to release. Where the GD part stands for Gravity-Defying. Cosmosent Labs, Inc. may (soon ?) become the planet's first-ever boot-stap'd ML Unicorn.

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 15, 2026 Here's a Heads Up on how we're positioning our upcoming Cosmosent App Store. For clarity, it's NOT just our way of circumventing Apple's "Stranglhold on App Discovery," but also our strategy for forcing the Chairman of the AAPL Board to Fess Up to the Cover Up. And here, we naturally assume he was "in the loop". If NOT, Tim Cook is very-likely "as good as gone".

The orange line in the graph represents our estimate of the TAM. i.e., it assumes Apple had recommended & promoted the Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps. And for clarity, it's the enthusiasm for the associated Domains & Applications/Use-Cases of those Camera Apps that would have resulted in some iPhone owners upgrading much sooner than they did. And once we pointed that out to Apple Mgmt, we'll, they probably weren't too happy with us. And were even more-determined to suppress knowledge of our Photosets. And by extension, their Screw Up. As an exercise: Subtract the values in white from the values in organge to calculate how much was Left on the Table. Also for clarity, we stop'd analyzing the problem almost two years ago now. Once it hit $113B USD in lost (mostly high-end) iPhone revenue. Also for clarity, the 2016 iPhone 7+ was Apple's first "true" High-Perf iPhone. It was Apple's first iPhone with at least 3 GB of DRAM. It was on the 2016 iPhone 7+ that Photosets first-became a rare,
true Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App. From our perspective, Tim Cook should have been replaced as Apple's CEO NO LATER THAN THE DAY AFTER the release of the 2017 iPhone X. Which BTW, had less DRAM than the 7+. Go Figure ! NO High-Perf Camera App Dev would have sign'd-off on the 2017 iPhone X ! High-end iPhone owners, AAPL shareholdlers, & the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service & product "partners" have ALL missed-out on the benefits that Photosets & the other Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps could have provided. Crystal Clear to us that Tim Cook & Phil Schiller are most to blame. Tim has a Fiduciary Duty, Phil does NOT. ANY & ALL AAPL Board members who were in the loop ALSO have a Fiduciary Duty. The Cover Up has gone on long enough. It's time for Tim Cook & whichever AAPL Board members were in the loop to Fess Up. Fess Up, Pay Up, & Move On. That's our advise to Apple. And BTW, we hold ALL the cards. On a side note, we believe there is a fair chance Google is ALSO caught-up in the Cover Up.
-----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 15, 2026 One more thing to announce today. We simply want to clarify that Photosets' target market is now iPads with an M4 or M5
+ iPhones with per-GPU Neural Accelerators. i.e., Apple mobile devices that are aligned with Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture support. BIG picture perspective, we're establishing our own App Store focused on Unique & Innovative Camera Apps for iPhones with per-GPU Neural Accelerators + iPads with an M4 or M5. + Macs capable of running Photosets TV/Studio. i.e., our companion macOS app for Photosets. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 15, 2026 We'll be out at Windansea beach early today Field Testing Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture (MVC) support. Specifically, using an M4 iPad Pro as the MVC "master" & 17PM iPhones as MVC "slaves". As a reminder, we'd like End Users to simply think of MVC as Unique & Innovative Remote Control support. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 14, 2026 Yesterday, we coined the term Trump 2nd Term Collapse™. And Yes, the name is dervied from the Late Bronze Age Collapse. And for good reason. If you know your history, you'll see the potential parallel. Today, we want to publish our prioritized list of what we're most worried about WRT the war: 1.) The status & where-abouts of Iran's ~907 lbs of 60%+ Enriched Uranium. It's a viable weapon even at 60% ! 2.) The desalination plants along the Persian Gulf. Iran & Eastern Turkey were already dealing with a significant water crisis BEFORE the war. 3.) The Ag products derived from Gas production. 4.) The Oil & Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) production facilities. 5.) Def Sec Pete Hegseth & FCC Chair Brendan Carr. Both want to Control the "News" Narrative WRT the war. But that will just end up getting Trump into more trouble than he's already in. And he's already deep in it. It's the Middle that determines Elections, NOT the Far-Right, NOT the Far-Left. On a side note, we do want to add that we believe it's entirely possible that President Trump goes down in history as the Dumbest U.S. President in the modern era. Out-doing even the 2nd Bush President. Yes, that's right, the one he railed against for invading Iraq. Make NO mistake, Trump has dug himself, America, & the entire planet, into quite the Deep Hole. It's entirely possible that ONLY the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal) will be able to save NOT ONLY America, but ALSO the entire planet. NO cronyism OR political appointees with CRITCoal. Qualified individuals ONLY. We'll be using that when CRITCoal builds its Cabinet. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 14, 2026 Heads Up, the plan is to release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, concurrently with the next update of our macOS app, Photosets TV/Studio. Both with a first-cut of Next-Gen Multi View Capture (MVC) support. Which we'd like End Users to simply think of as Unique & Innovative Remote Control support. ● Supported MVC "masters":
iPads with an M4 or M5, + Macs capable of running Photosets TV/Studio ● Supported MVC "slaves":
iPhones with per-GPU Neural Accelerators And for clarity, NG MVC support will be included in the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets v26.2.
Please note that Price & Availability of Photosets TV/Studio is still TBD. Note also that we need to complete Field Testing before releasing it. i.e., with our (new) M5 MacBook Air, (new) A18 Pro MackBook Neo, & (older) M1 MacBook Air. On a side note, the loss of ~1/3 of the world's trade of Nitrogen-based fertilizers (e.g., Urea & Ammonia) due to the risk of traversing the Strait of Hormuz is, in our opinion, NOT getting enough attention. It should be, in our opinion, considered just as much of a National Security issue as Oil & Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). Note also that nearly half of the world's sulfur exports, essential for producing phosphate fertilizers, is also in play. If the War drags on AND just one major volcano erupts, 1/5th of the planet's population will probably die of starvation. And another 1/5th due to disease due to a weakened health state. Countless examples of precisely that happening in the past. Now here's the really scary part about ALL this Who in Trump's orbit do you have confidence has a handle on ALL this ? We are unaware that such a person exists (in Trump's orbit) !
Also on a side note, we've been Asked & have Agreed, to RE-post our E90 M3 Lite table just in-case.
"Slower to 60, but Faster out the (showroom) door (than EVs)" That's our sales pitch ! (table last updated 9:30 PM, Tues, Jan 6, 2026)

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 14, 2026 Time to stir the pot & shake things up. "Damn the torpedoes, full steam ahead". Photosets v26.2 out soon ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 13, 2026 Two more things to announce, both reminders: 1.) Photosets Marketing & Branding Campaign is centered-on Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire. And, importantly, with User-generated Content for Concepts & Themes. And for clarity, we intend to push the boundaries WRT AI-generated Videos. ONLY possible because our Photosets Burst Photo Camera App is the starting point. 2.) Our E90 M3 Lite & its associated N52B30 engine block cylinder wall service is On Hold. We simply have NO extra cycles for that right now. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 13, 2026 It's Crytal Clear to us, & hopefully many others, that we are witnessing what can best be described as the Trump 2nd Term Collapse™. Make NO mistake, Trade-based, Specialist Civilizations are fragile, extremely fragile. Don't agree ? We recommend you look-into the Late Bronze Age Collapse.
And BTW, we've just now distributed the above to select others. Asking them to educate President Trump about the Late Bronze Age Collapse. If U.S. Marines do invade & occupy Kharg Island as rumors now expect, things could quickly go sideways. But it could also work out. Would give us something valuable to trade, & NOT just for the strait of Hormuz. The status & where-abouts of Iran's ~970 lbs of 60%+ enriched uranium remains our top (Iran War) priority. Consider this, the U.S. returns Kharg Island to Iran in exchange for its ~970 lbs of enriched uranium + open waters in the gulf & the strait. On a side note, we do believe it's important for Trump to Fess Up about his "completely and totally obliterated" statements of last June. That was a Bunch of Bull. And too cavalier for such an important Naional Security issue. We just hope Homeland Security has geiger couters at ALL major U.S. ports. Lack of Imagination is what gets most countries in trouble when dealing with an Enemy. Let's just hope that doesn't happen in our case. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 13, 2026 One more thing to announce. If we get the opportunity, we plan to pitch to the AAPL Board the type of person we believe should be Apple's next CEO. If Apple has a VP of Applications Engineering we believe that person should be at the top of the list. Specifically, someone with many years of Engineering & Software Development experience, & with known & proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. Apple's hardware products are mostly good to go. It's the advanced software applications that run on top of it where Apple's next shepherd should be focused. And BTW, we've got nothing against the guy many think will be Apple's next CEO. We simply don't think he has the right background. He's at the right age, however. For the record, we don't believe Apple has a VP of Applications Engineering. Simply put, we've seen NO evidence of it. As such, what we're saying here is that Apple MUST (also) consider outside candidates. And for clarity, NO ONE here is interested. Once Photosets starts to gain traction, Cosmosent Labs, Inc. will be a much more interesting & exciting place to work than Apple. And that could happen on ANY given day. Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps are ideal for outdoor activities in the spring ! First of Spring just around the corner. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 13, 2026 Heads Up, we plan to release the first-cut of our Photosets 3x5 User Guide by Monday. Near-term, you'll be able to print it via our website, & then tape it to a 3"x5" card. Longer-term, we plan to also offer a laminated version for purchase. And for clarity, we consider this to be a key part of our Photosets Marketing & Branding Campaign. As we stated on Wednesday, we overshot Tim Cook's App Store by 2-3 levels with our Photosets. It wasn't intentional. It just happened. But we also see it as Opportunity. For clarity, we mean WRT Burst Photo Technology & its associated Domains & Applications/Use-Cases. As a reminder, Photosets could have & very-likely should have become the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App. And it's NOT just us who believes that. The challenge is circumventing Apple's stranglehold on App Discovery in their App Store. The app is ready to go & has been for quite some time. ALL that's really needed now is a proper Marketing & Brandng Campaign. One that is 100% OUTSIDE of Apple's influence ! i.e., 100% OUTSIDE of Apple's App Store. And for the record, we intend to press the AAPL Board to explain precisely why they've been so comfortable leaving (by our count) $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years. We believe they owe AAPL shareholders an explanation. It's called Fiduciary Duty. We're simply gonna call them out on it. Tim Cook should have NEVER picked Phil Schiller to run the App Store. We believe he's the one most-responsible for Apple's $113B+ USD screw-up. What say you Tim Cook ? On a side note, we believe CNBC should be forced to change their name to "CNBC for Dummies" for ONE entire work-week, for dropping the ball so badly on this very important topic. Here, we're gonna try to get President Trump to help us. We're serious. Time to get the word out. The Cover Up has gone on long enough. High-end iPhone owners, AAPL shareholders, & the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service & product providers have ALL missed-out on their respective benefits. It's simply NOT OK for Apple to suppress American innovation. And certainly NOT when an American company is at the very fore-front of a Technology. In this case, Burst Photo Technology & its associated Domains & Applications/Use-Cases. We believe Tim Cook has some serious explaining to do. Also for the record, Apple dug themselves into the hole that they are in. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 11, 2026 If you know Our Story, you know we realized we overshot Tim Cook's App Store by 2-3 levels with our Photosets. As such, even though Photosets could have & very-likely should have become the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App, it hasn't done well in Tim Cook's App Store. That's forced us to think outside the box WRT our Business Strategy. The gist here, we're much more B2B now than B2C. And we're cooking something BIG along those lines. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, March 7, 2026 Important Business Strategy pivot to announce. Photosets' first-ever Marketing & Branding Campaign is now our top priority. On a side note, we do want to also add that we're moving forward what we believe to be a Unique & Innovative strategy for having End Users participate. A strategy we believe is ONLY viable for an App Dev (like us) with a Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App. Here, think Content for Concepts & Themes. And tie that in to AI-generated Videos. And naturally, for us, first up is our planned Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, March 6, 2026 Two things to announce today: 1.) The ONLY thing now holding up the release of the next update of Photosets, v26.2, are the app's App Store screenshots. We want new ones for v26.2. Yesterday, we uploaded the code for v26.2 to Apple App Review. So that's ready to go (for release). Please note that it could take us a couple of days, perhaps more, to capture & craft the screenshots, as we've got Live Demos planned, starting later today. 2.)
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 5, 2026 We've uploaded the code for v26.2 to Apple App Review. We still need to craft new App Store screenshots before we'll submit it for review, however. That could take a couple of days. We've got a few Live Demos we need to present. Also, for clarity, v26.2 adds support for Apple products "announced" this week. In particular, because the display of the MacBook Neo ONLY supports sRGB, we've added User control of sRGB vs P3 D65 for 8-bit Capture. Specifically, into the app's In App Settings dialog. Additionally, v26.2 adds support for the iPhone 17e. Starting with v26.2, Concurrent Audio Capture is limited to the 17P, 17PM, 17, Air, & 17e, as well as the M4+ iPad Pro. And, Next-Gen Multi View Capture will be limited to the 17P, 17PM, & Air, as well as the M4+ iPad Pro. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 5, 2026 Quick follow-up to our last News Update. We want to clarify that we have NO intention of taking Apple to court. We simply want to present our case to President Trump & let his DoJ take the lead. Our main pitch that we'd like President Trump to use: "It's simply NOT OK for Apple to suppress American Innovation,
OR to cheat Americans out of the benefits of that innovation" Specifically, iPhone owners, AAPL shareholders,
& the shareholders of Apple's cellular service provider & Apple-product partners. By our count, Apple left $113B USD of (mostly high-end) iPhone revenue on the table over the years. And we want that to become Common Knowledge. Do NOT be surprised if Heads Roll in Apple's App Store. Do NOT be surprised if the AAPL Board (soon) announces Tim's retirement date. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 5, 2026 We plan to use the following to affect positive change in Apple's App Store: 1.) iOS controls if/when to present the In App Ratings Request Dialog when prompted by the app. 2.) Apple's App Store controls which Ratings & Reviews to which accept and which to reject. 3.) Apple controls who gets notified that app updates are available. Consider this: ● ONLY 746 of the 50.2K Users WW who have downloaded & installed Photosets
have updated to v26.1 ● ONLY 498 of the 13.9K Users here in the States who have downloaded & installed Photosets
have updated to v26.1
The key points we want to make
: 1.) Apple has the ability to suppress knowledge of ANY app OR App Dev they don't like. They don't like that we figured-out Cook's biggest screw-up as CEO. i.e., suppressing knowledge of 1/3 of the Domains/Applications/Use-Cases represented by the Camera Tech in every iPhone. We believe they're gonnaq try to make up for it later this year, but the damage is done. Tim Cook's Apple has left, by our count, $113B USD of (mostly high-end) iPhone revenue on the table over the years. Specifically, by suppressing knowledge of Photosets & the other Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera Apps. 2.) Apple wasn't harmed by their actions. Thus proving that they do in-deed represent a Monopoly. Also, for clarity, we've given Apple an out, but it's NOT a good one. They can claim they we're Technically Incompetent AND Market Opportunity Ignorant WRT Burst Photo Technology AND its associated Domains/Applications/Use-Cases. At a Min, we want Tim Cook to make a public apology. Actually, we're NOT gonna let Cook OR Schiller Off the Hook that easily. It's time for some Payback. We're thinking a sufficiently-sized Grant, for starters. Plus, changes to the App Store to make sure it doesn't happen again to others. It's simply NOT OK for Apple to suppress American Innovation, & cheat our mutual customers out of the benefits of that Innovation. In our opinion, Tim should simply Fess Up. i.e., that Apple made a mistake with an important Camera Tech & its Use Cases. And BTW, we believe it would send a nice message to President Trump. i.e., that it's OK to acknowledge mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes.
As an exercise calculate the per-Launch TAM - Reported numbers (the total is $113B USD).

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, March 5, 2026 We're on track to release the next update, v26.2, by day's end. We'll then pivot-back to working on our macOS app Photosets TV/Studio. BIG picture perspective, think DMoE over NG MVC ! Off the radar of most but should NOT be. But that's what you get when Cook runs Apple & Schiller runs the App Store. Two guys with NO Engineering OR Software Development experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. Go Figure ! Which BTW, very-likely also holds true for every member of the AAPL Board. The Emperor has NO clothes. And we're NOT just referring to President Trump. For clarity, we are almost-ALL Center-Right. A few Center-Left. NONE Far-Right, NONE Far-Left. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 2:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 4, 2026 After careful analysis of Apple's new Macs, Cosmosent Labs, Inc. is today announcing that the company intends to buy a Base 15" M5 MacBook Air ($1,299 USD) for every employee, plus a Base MacBook Neo ($599 USD) for shared-use by both R&D & Marketing. And for clarity, R&D ONLY needs the MacBook Neo for final testing purposes (i.e., before releasing an update), while Marketing ONLY needs it for Live Demos. Also, Photosets TV/Studio is the app to "keep an eye out" (for). It's our macOS-based companion to/for Photosets. It was our original Multi View Capture (MVC) "master". And that was back when Apple ONLY sold Intel-based Macs. It's key to our DMoE strategy. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 4, 2026 Here's a Heads Up on what we're now planning for the next update of Photosets, v26.2: 1.) Adding End User control for selecting the color space for "8-bit 420 Capture". Specifically, we're adding a UISegmentedControl to the top of the app's In App Settings dialog (with the above label) so that End Users can select between sRGB & P3 D65 (aka Display P3). As a reminder, the display of the new Macbook Neo ONLY supports sRGB. Currently, for 8-bit 420 Capture, Photosets ONLY supports P3 D65. While for 10-bit 422 Capture, it supports sRGB, HLG, Log, & Log2. 2.) Adding support for the iPhone 17e. 3.) New App Store screenshots (high on our To Do List).
The Gist, the new $599 USD MacBook Neo could be a BIG deal. Especially since students can get it for $499 USD. We believe it makes alot of sense for us to prioritize support for this new MacBook. And for multiple reasons, with DMoE naturally being one of them. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, March 4, 2026 Five things to announce today: 1.) The "Distributed" Mixture-of-Experts (DMoE) architecture that we've (briefly) described is now driving most of our Business Strategy decisions. 2.) As a way to circumvent Apple's "Stranglehold on App Discovery & Innovation" in their App Store, we've begun work on building the infrastructure for a "Photosets DMoE" User Community. 3.) The release of the next update of Photosets, v26.2, is now On Hold. And naturally related to #1 & #2 above. We're in UN-chartered waters & we want to make the most of it. Distancing ourseleves & Photosets from Apple & their App Store is key. At least as much as an iOS & macOS App Dev can, that is. 4.) We're intrigued by the new $599 USD MacBook Neo. If we can get Photosets DMoE working on that it would get us noticed. 5.) We're moving forward with our first two Hardware devices. Both are companions to/for Photosets. One is related to Genlock, one is related to Capture in general. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 3, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to clarify an important point regarding our complaints regarding Apple. If Tim Cook & the other members of the AAPL Board did nothing wrong, then they should have nothing to worry about. If, however, they violated their Fiduciary Duty to AAPL shareholders, then, we believe, they have alot to worry about. Also, Phil Schiller, the guy who runs Apple's App Store, is most-likely most-responsible for Apple's screw up. But he is NOT a member of the AAPL Board & thus has NO Fiduciary Duty to AAPL shareholders. So while Phil is very-likely most to blame for the screw up, he is very-likely in the clear. Tim Cook & the other members of the AAPL Board are not. We simply want the DoJ to investigate. And Make NO mistake, we believe we have a very compelling case. i.e., we can prove Apple wasn't hurt by their Actions. Thus proving they do in-deed represent a Monopoly. Proving that, & getting credit for proving that, is very valuable to a company like Cosmosent Labs, Inc. In a Nutshell, that's it. On a side note, we just listened to President Trump on TV. His explanation for "Why Now ?" is much cleaner than what Marco Rubio & Mike Johnson stated yesterday. But still very-likely too weak for most of the American public to accept. i.e., the one related to Israel attacking first. We believe he should have simply stuck with the Iranian Enriched Uranium problem. i.e., the (lack of) status & (lack of) where-abouts (via Negotiations with the Iranians). -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, March 3, 2026 Heads Up, 50% chance we release the next update, v26.2, by day's end on Thurs, with support for "Premium Capture". -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 2, 2026 Heads Up, we're leaning towards making Photosets' (upcoming) "Premium Capture" IAP a One-Time-Purchase IAP, priced at $5.00 USD. We haven't given up on Photosets becoming the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App. A status it should have achieved many years ago. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 2, 2026 We're On Track to release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, by mid-March, with support for purchasing the app's "Premium Capture" IAP included. Earlier today, we drop'd the price of the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets to ONE U.S. Buck. And we did so in preparation for the release of the "Premium Capture" IAP. It's important to us, & to our Corp Partners, to get v26.2 released before March Madness kicks off on Tues, March 17th. On a side note, to us, the reasons our Sec of State Marco Rubio & House Speaker Mike Johnson made today for "Why Now ?," doesn't hold water. Whoever made the call to go with those reasons should get 30 lashes for being Stupid. Why can't they just tell the truth ? "We won't allow Iran to reconstitute their Uranium Enrichment Program, which they were attempting to do" That's what Trump should have said. That's what Rubio & House Speaker Johnson should have said. Now consider this, if Trump is worried about Iran's ballistic missiles & launchers, that tells us he is worried that Iran has OR is weaponizing some of their 60%-enriched uranium. i.e., that Trump's "completely and totally obliterated" claim (last June) was false. Which many, perhaps most, didn't believe anyway. So, in a round-about way, Trump let it slip. We believe Trump should tell the American public "precisely" what he knows. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 12 Noon (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 2, 2026 Yesterday, we noticed that Apple, for the first time ever, was using the following in response to Google searches about Photosets (i.e., what Apple passes to Google): "The custom watermark cannot be edited once set, nor disabled". And that continues today. So we investigated. Turns-out, it's from a User Review from March 7th of 2017, for v2.8.6. Yep, from nine years ago & almost 400 App Review Approvals ago ! To us, it's just one of the many ways that Apple tries to "strangle knowledge of Photosets" in their App Store. As a reminder, we & Photosets represent the single-greatest risk to Tim Cook's "legacy". And possibly to every AAPL Board member, due to their Fiduciary Duty obligation. A violation of such is a serious thing. If you know Our Story, you know "precisely" what we're talking about. And for clarity, we disabled End User access to the app's custom watermark support hundreds of app updates ago. And we did so because adding the custom watermark to each photo of a set simply took too much time. Specifically, we felt it added too much delay before the app would be ready for the next capture cycle. Later today, we will verify that it is in-deed (still) disabled to End Users. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, March 2, 2026 Today we want to clarify that while Photosets' (upcoming) ML-based GDB Detector is a for-sure thing, & that we hope to release it soon, the app's "Distributed" Mixture-of-Experts (DMoE) solution, which runs on top of the GDB Detector, is NOT. It's very much an Experiment at this point. It has significant potential, but there are NO guarantees. If successful, it's a Game Changer for AI in mobile ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, March 1, 2026 Today, we're announcing that Photosets' (upcoming) "Distributed" Mixture-of-Experts (DMoE) solution is now our top priority. For clarity, the first-cut of DMoE leverages Photosets' GDB Detector support, which is NOT yet ready for Prime Time, & thus has NOT yet been released to the General Public. Think of it as a "DMoE Proof of Concept". ALL goes well, most will consider us to be at the very forefront of AI in mobile. And if/when that happens, we fully expect the market caps of most of the AI High Flyers to reset. You heard it here first. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Friday, Feb 27, 2026 Late today, we were Asked & have Agreed, to make our ML-based GDB Detector our top priority, where GDB now stands for Gravity-Defying Beauty™. Please note that how-best to release it is TBD. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, Feb 27, 2026 Moving forward, we plan to promote the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets as an AI Tool for the capture, collection, & annotation of "dynamic" ML Training Data & Test Sets. And by "dynamic," we simply mean "things that are in motion". On a side note, today we're announcing that we're now fast tracking the completion of Photosets'
ML-based GDB Detector, where GDB stands for Gravity-Defying Beauty. We like to think of it as a Super/Cover-Model Detector. And which could also be used as a Fitness Detector. At a Min, we plan to use it for our Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire. And for clarity, Females ONLY.
Here's an Overview of what we're currently working on: ● App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets ● In House version of Photosets (for the vertical market opportunities we've hinted at) E.g., Baseball, Softball, Golf, & GDB Detector use cases ● N52B30 engine block Alusil cylinder wall service + our E90 M3 Lite -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 2:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, Feb 26, 2026 After her actions earlier today, Rep. Lauren Boebert will NOT be allowed to join CRITCoal. From our perspective, "playing stupid political games" is simply too important to her. As such, she is NOT a good fit for CRITCoal. As a reminder, CRITCoal stands for Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition. Off the radar of most, but should NOT be. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, Feb 26, 2026 We've decided NOT to include a first-cut of Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture / Remote Control support in the next update, v26.2, out soon. We've concluded it's best for us to keep it In House for the vertical market opportunities we've hinted at. That also applies to Photosets' "Premium Capture" sub. As a reminder, among other things, Photosets is a unique & innovative AI Tool for the Capture, Collection, & Annotation of "dynamic" ML training data. And by "dynamic," we simply mean "things that are in motion". Make NO mistake, Photosets is a Billion Dollar Plus App. Investors have simply NOT yet picked up on that. It is what it is. Good thing we're "cooking" our E90 M3 Lite. That alone represents a Billion Dollar Plus opportunity. And we're very-likely one of the few companies on the planet that could pull it off. We've been working on it for over a year now. Ask youself, how many BMW N52B30 engine blocks would benefit BIG time from having their Alusil cylinder walls "refurbished," thus greatly extending the lifespan of the engine ? By our count, ~1M units WW. And for clarity, the solution could ultimately be applied to every BMW, Porsche, & Audi engine block with Alusil cylinder walls. And that's where our ML-based Specialty Robot comes into play. On a side note, the Judge (i.e., Scott Wapner) knows alot more about AI than his panel on CNBC. Although the panels' comments about AI Data Center "local regulator concerns" was noteworthy. i.e., NOT in my backyard (& thus the reason for the rush before the midterms by the Hyperscalers). We agree with that 100%. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, Feb 26, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) It's entirely possible we go from an App Dev with dreams of our own Auto Division,
to a Car Company with our own App Division. Our E90 M3 Lite is getting noticed ! As a reminder, it's how we plan to "refurbish" the N52B30 engine block's Alusil cylinder walls that's at the core of our strategy. Also, for clarity, BMW never produced an N52-based M3. We believe it was a major screw-up on their part. 2.) Will the Epstein Cover Up bring-down the Trump administration ? We believe it will. We are seeing signs of that gaining traction this morning.
"Slower to 60, but Faster out the (showroom) door (than EVs)" That's our sales pitch ! (table last updated 9:30 PM, Tues, Jan 6, 2026)

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 25, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) Some may say we're "talking moonshine," but in reality, we're uniquely positioned & we won't sit idly by. The gist, we're brewing something BIG, potentially very BIG. Also, if Apple had NOT dug itself into such a Deep Hole,
we would NOT be able to pull off what we're about to pull off. So, in a sense, we have Tim & Phil to thank. 2.) We continue to make good daily progress on Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture (MVC) support. The low-level code works well, but we're still refining the UI. For clarity: ● Supported MVC "masters": M4+ iPad Pros ● Supported MVC "slaves": iPhones with Genlock
Also for clarity, we fully intend to drive sales of M4+ iPad Pros. AAPL shareholders are about to learn a very important lesson. i.e., who really holds the cards. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 25, 2026 We've decided to move forward with CRITCoal T-shirts & bumper stickers. President Trump did NOT mention the U.S. National Debt problem even once during his speech last night. Neither did the Democratic response to Trump's speech. Go Figure ! Make NO mistake, the legacy, super-polarized, two-party Political System here in the States
"continues to play American Citizens for fools". The U.S. National Debt will soon cross $39T USD. Yet, neither of the legacy political parties here in the States wants to address it. If NOT now, when ? $39T USD of Debt & Counting. That's the tag line we'll be using for CRITCoal's T-shirts & bumper stickers. As a reminder, CRITCoal stands for Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition. For clarity, it's NOT a politcal party, simply a coalition of like-minded individuals, but it could become a political party. Ideally, our next U.S. President would be aligned with CRITCoal. Perhaps even a member of CRITCoal. Food for thought. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 25, 2026 We'll be out at Windansea & Marine St. beaches for 3-4 days, starting today,
showcasing Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture (NG MVC) support. It's a Game Changer. And naturally, we plan to take advantage of the good Wx here in La Jolla. 73 on the beaches today, 77 tomorrow, 82 on Friday, 79 on Saturday, 74 on Sunday. Also, for clarity, we hope to recruit Females for our upcoming Marketing & Branding Campaign. i.e., the Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Broze Age attire that we've hinted at. That's how we plan to showcase NG MVC to the General Public. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 24, 2026 After thinking about it some more, we're now 100% convinced Apple released their Sales Coach app ten years too late ! As a reminder, they released it yesterday. Consider this, if they had released it ten years ago, AND if it had properly covered "Burst Photo Camera Apps," it could have cover'd-up serious deficiencies in Apple's App Store. And, importantly, if that had happened, Apple may NOT have left anywhere close to $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years. As a reminder, the 2016 iPhone 7+ was Apple's first true High-Perf iPhone. At least from the perspective of High-Perf Burst Photo Camera Apps.
-----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 24, 2026 We've been Asked & have Agreed, to write up a proposal regarding our E90 M3 Lite & N52B30 Alusil cylinder wall "refurbishing" service. As a reminder, (we believe) the service alone represents an UN-tap'd Billion Dollar Plus opportunity. And that we are one of the very companies on the planet that could pull it off. Also, for clarity, while the service could eventually apply to every engine block from BMW, Porsche, & Audi with Alusil cylinder walls, the E90 M3 Lite is restricted to 2006-2008 E90 sedans. That's because BMW pivoted their E90 sedans away from their Highly-Prized Hydraulic-assist Power Steering starting with the 2009 model year. That was, in our opinion, a significant screw-up on BMW's part. The flipside, the 2006-2008 E90 sedans have significant potential to become Collectors Cars. But that's if and ONLY if the engine block's Alusil cylinder walls are "refurbished". For clarity, it's needed to reduce Oil Consumption. The (low-tension) piston oil control rings ware mostly worn-out by 200K miles. As such, new oil control rings are needed, & should be installed AFTER the Alusil cylinder walls have been "professionally refurbished". Also, for clarity, we've already looked into developing an ML-based Specialty Robot that would automate the Alusil cylinder wall "refurbishing". But, we'd do the first 100 OR so manually.
"Slower to 60, but Faster out the (showroom) door (than EVs)" That's our sales pitch ! (table last updated 9:30 PM, Tues, Jan 6, 2026)

📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, Feb 23, 2026 What does it take to become a Professional Stock Analyst & run a Fund ? And specifically, covering ONLY companies whose stock has fallen on AI fears. We don't know the answer to that, but we're looking into it. And for clarity, we're NOT Marketing OR Finance winnies, we ALL have a BSEE degree from a Top University, most from Cal Poly, SLO. To us, The Market doesn't have a f#%king clue about AI. It's ALL-about "the Data," NOT the Models ! We strongly believe the valuations of OpenAI, Anthropic & the other AI-related High-Flyers are 6x higher than they should be. And if they had gotten there in a linear fashion (i.e., 1/6 of their current), we'd have NO problem with where they sit, valuation-wise. But there would also be NO opportunity for us to capitalize. But they didn't get there in a linear fashion. They ALL overshot by 6x. That's what we believe. And in the process have distrupted some entrenched legacy companies, valuation-wise. We believe there is alot of opportunity for us to capitalize, BIG time. And BTW, the catalyst for ALL this was this article: link to CNBC article on IBM's COBALT Notice where it says "can scan codebases". That really got our attention, & NOT in a good way. It has major security implications. Also, we are already on the record as having stated that the biggest AI opportunity ahead is "fixing AI-generated code". If the Status Quo continues, that will become a Huge Services Opportunity. Too many NON-technical individuals on CNBC have fooled CNBC's audience into thinking it's trival for AI to produce production-grade code. It's NOT, just the opposite. Updates & Maintenance is a Huge Challenge. And that doesn't even take into account that most companies will want to protect their Data at ALL costs. Make NO mistake, AI is over-hyped by 6x. The Emperor, pick your poison, Jensen OR Altman, has NO clothes. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Monday, Feb 23, 2026 Today, we got wind of Apple's new Sales Coach app, & it got us thinking. The "baseball card" we've been crafting is basically a Coach, for mastering Photosets. As such, do we stop calling it a Baseball card & start calling it a Coach card ? Probably. Consider that a Heads Up. And BTW, first version of it could be out by month's end. We've been working on it for about a week now. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, Feb 23, 2026 We've decided to hold-off on releasing our low-cost Genlock HW. It needs more work. It's simply NOT ready for Prime Time. In its current state, it's fine for In House use, but NOT good-enough for use by the General Public. Ideally, we'd (ultimately) release it as a $99 USD Pro-Consumer product. On a side note, we do want to announce that based-upon the latest polling, we do believe the time is cleary right for our Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal) to gain traction. It is our very-strong belief that it's been the legacy, super-polarized, two-party Political System here in the States that has been, & continues to be, the root cause of most problems. For clarity, it is our goal to either force both legacy political parties to move closer to the center, OR suffer the conseqences. i.e., to be completely replaced (in importance) by Center-Right AND Center-Left
coalitions AND/OR political parties. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, Feb 23, 2026 We're On Track to Release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, by week's end. And for clarity, 50% chance it will include the innovative twist we hinted at yesterday. Here, think low-cost Genlock. As a reminder, our Founder's 1st job after receiving his BSEE from Cal Poly, SLO, was at HP's Santa Clara Frequency & Time Division. i.e., at the intersection of Stevens Creek, 280, & Lawrence Expressay. Walking distance to Apple's HQ, which BTW was an HP site back then. Also, as a Heads Up, here's what else we're working on this week: 1.) Wrapping-up a first-cut of Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture support. For clarity, we intend to release the Single User version of it first. Think of it as a unique & innovative Remote Control solution. 2.) Crafting the "baseball card". i.e., tips on how-best to master Photosets. 3.) New App Store screenshots. Sex sells, so we've prioritized that. NO guarantee, but ideally would get us closer to our planned Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire. On a side note, we want to make it Crystal Clear to ALL that "we fully intend to drive sales" of the M5 iPad Pro. And possibly ALSO the rumored M4 iPad Air. Last week, when we saw that Amazon was selling the 11" Wi-Fi M5 iPad Pro for $799 USD, we decided to make our move. And Yes, it's Corp Partnership related. For clarity, when Apple released the M4 iPad Pro, we bought one on Day One. Later, we noticed that Amazon was selling it as low as $849 USD. That pissed us off, but also became the Catalyst for us focusing on limiting our Multi View Capture "master" suport to just M4+ iPad Pros, for precisely the reason we're detailing today. Apple won't promote Photosets UNLESS/UNTIL they are forced to. We, & Photosets, represent the single greatest liability to Tim Cook's legacy. We are the ONLY ONES who have figured-out his single-biggest screw-up. $113B USD & counting ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, Feb 22, 2026 We want to clarify something important WRT what we had announced earlier. (We believe) there is alot of value in being Responsible for & getting Credit for the Complete Break Up of Apple's App Store monopoly. And, importantly, we want to make it Crystal Clear to ALL that Apple dug themselves into the hole that they are in. Our contribution was simply Best-in-Class Perseverance. Sure, Photosets is Light Years Ahead of ALL other Camera Apps in Burst Photo Technology & Domain/Application/Use-Case support. But that ONLY occurred because of (our) Perseverance (& Insight). Also, while we do believe Ives & Munster should have picked-up on the issue, there are others we've never mentioned who should have as well. i.e., those so-called Reporters & websites who (claim to) focus on covering Apple. They can't ALL be DumbF#%ks, so there clearly must be a Cover Up (OR two). Food for though. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Sunday, Feb 22, 2026 Late yesterday, while Brainstorming our Business Strategy, we came up with what we believe to be an Innovative Twist. Today, we've begun executing on that new idea. The Gist, Tim Cook's App Store is NOT a good fit for Photosets. If you know Our Story, you know the "precise" reasons why we feel that way. And, you know that we believe it doesn't reflect upon Photosets, ONLY upon Apple's App Store Mgmt Team. For clarity, we believe Tim Cook's biggest screw-up as CEO was appointing Phil Schiller to run Apple's App Store. Combined, Tim & Phil have NO Engineering OR Software Development experience, & NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise. Combine that with the fact that Apple acquired the best Burst Photo Camera App in their App Store in late-2013/early-2014, but then leveraged ONLY that app's NEON-based JPEG Encoder. Go Figure ! Read that to mean they completely dropped the ball. Photos on one end, Vidoes on the other end, & Burst Photos in the middle. Apple has done well on the ends, but piss-poor in the middle. They clearly didn't know what they had & they clearly didn't know that a Burst Photo Camera App could be implemented in two different ways. Combine that with the fact that the ONLY "Camera Apps" Apple's App Store has recommended during Cook's reign as CEO almost-ALL came from one company, where one of the co-founders used to work at Apple (& who is now back at Apple). That alone should be investigated by the DoJ. To us, it proves that Apple doesn't really have ANY so-called App Store Editors OR Experts covering Camera Apps. Furthermore, we're convinced it was very-likely Schiller making the "Camera App"-related calls on his own. BIG picture perspective, Apple's App Store Mgmt Team has cheated high-end iPhone owners, AAPL shareholders, & the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service provider partners, out of the benefits that Photosets & the other Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App offer. That absolutely should be investigated by the DoJ. We believe Fudiciary Duty violations very-likely occurred. NOT be Schiller, he's NOT a member of the AAPL Board. We believe he can get off scott free. It's Cook & the other members of the AAPL Board that need to worry. Once Our Story becomes Common Knowledge, the AAPL Board will have some serious explaining to do. And that Boys & Girls, is how our CRITCoal will begin to gain traction. As we see it, Cook & Schiller are just "sacrificial lambs" for a greater cause. It is what it is. And BTW, ONLY three people got Photosets yesterday, when it was FREE for the day. It's now half-way-back-up to its Regular Price. We made that change an hour ago. Once we implement the innovative twist it will go ALL the way back up. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, Feb 21, 2026 The best article most of us here at Cosmosent Labs, Inc. have ever read in Apple's News app, we read today. i.e., The Guardian's: A war foretold: how the CIA and MI6 got hold of Putin's Ukraine plans and why nobody believed them Rarely do ANY of us read an article from start to finish. Today, every one of us read that article from start to finish. BIG picture perspective, the article illustrates another prime example of "Lack of Imagination". ONLY the U.S. & the U.K. got it right. OR at least, before the War. On a side note, regarding Photosets, today we concluded we MUST soon release the app's "Premium Capture" IAP. Very-likely as an Auto-Renewing sub, priced at $9.99 per Year. We would NEVER include the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture (NG MVC) support in a FREE version of Photosets. And we couldn't make a dedicated IAP for it, because it's exclusive to M4+ iPad Pros + the 17P & 17PM iPhones. As such, Apple App Review wouldn't approve such a dedicated IAP. We've tried something similar in the past. But, we can just include it in "Premium Capture," since that IAP would apply to ALL iOS 26 supported iPhones. It would simply be an added benefit for those with an M4+ iPad Pro and/or 17P/17PM. And doing so very-likely puts us in the driver's seat WRT driving M5 iPad Pro sales. Also, for clarity, in its simplest form, NG MVC is simply unique & innovative Remote Control support. Also, for the record, the success of Photosets will very-likely lead to a major shakeup of the AAPL Board. You heard it here first. Apple Mgmt screw'd-up BIG time, & we appear to be the ONLY ONES who know. Go Figure ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Saturday, Feb 21, 2026 We've been Asked (by Corp Partners & others) & have Agreed,
to pivot the App Store (i.e., Base) version of Photosets to FREE. We've just made the necessary change in the App Store. And for clarity, it's ALL part of the BIG picture. i.e., think past Apple's App Store. Consider this, what could a "disruptive" iPhone App Developer do with their own Center-Right coalition ? In today's super-polarized two-party political system here in the States there is NO upper limit. Read that to mean even the Oval Office is a possibility. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 6 PM (La Jolla-time) Friday, Feb 20, 2026 Make NO mistake, President Trump's "venting session" earlier today was a disgrace to our nation. NO U.S. President should ever act like that in public. Also, just our two-cents, but we think someone in Trump's inner circle needs to educate him that THE ONLY WAY he can salvage his 2nd Presidency is to focus on trying to fix the U.S. National Debt problem. It's at $38.7T USD today ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, Feb 20, 2026 We just listened to President Trump's post-Supreme Court decison "Venting Session" News Conference. We see opportunity for an "AI-based Politican Fact Checker". Perhaps just as a unique & innovative Benchmark for ALL the major Foundation models. Best of ALL, we know how to easily pull it off. And by we, we really mean our Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal), for which we are the Founders. And for clarity, we believe ONLY CRITCoal would have the credibility to successfully pull it off. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Friday, Feb 20, 2026 The Supreme Court's 6-3 decision regarding Trump's tariffs was clearly the right decision. We are surprised, however, that The Market isn't up BIG right now. The Market clearly thought this would be the outcome. i.e., that the Supreme Court would rule the way it did. The BIG unknowns now: 1.) Will there be Tariff Refunds ? 2.) How much Uncertainty will we'll ALL see moving forward On a side note, a month OR so back we decided to shelf our BMW N52B30 engine block Alusil cylinder wall service plans because of the extra cost associated with Trump's tariffs. We're gonna now Re-examine that. Hard Asset Companies should do well moving forward. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, Feb 19, 2026 We want to clarity something important that we stated yesterday, regarding being in Attack Mode. Specifically, we weren't just referring to fixing Tim Cook's App Store, but ALSO the legacy, super-polarized, two-party Political System here in the States. Which hasn't worked effectively in decades. Now is the perfect time for Center-Right & Center-Left coalitions to gain traction. We have ours, the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition (CRITCoal). Now consider this, "what if" just ten members of the House were aligned with CRITCoal. Those ten would more-Powerful than ALL other members of the House, more-Powerful than most Senators, & ONLY ONE STEP below the Power of the U.S. President. Food for thought. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thursday, Feb 19, 2026 ONLY 82 of the 13.9K here in the States who have downloaded & installed Photosets, have updated to the latest version, v26.1. Likewise, ONLY 143 of the 50.2K Worldwide who have downloaded & installed Photosets, have updated to the latest version, v26.1. Many are missing-out BIG time ! As a reminder, Apple has Full Control over "who gets notified" about App Updates. To us, it's just one of the ways that Apple both Controls the Narrative (in their App Store) AND (more-globally) Covers-Up their Mistakes. Also, for clarity, v26.1 represents Photosets' 412th App Review Approval ! Also, for the record, we fully intend to recruit President Trump to our cause. It's NOT OK for Apple to suppress U.S. company innovation. And certainly NOT just because they screwed-up & we figured it out. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 18, 2026 One more thing to announce before closing shop for the day. We intend to showcase Photosets' upcoming Next-Gen Multi View Capture support via our planned Marketing & Branding Campaign center-on "Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire". Combined with the "baseball card," we believe we'll be able to circumvent Apple's Stranglehold on App Discovery in their App Store. Photosets should have become the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App NO MORE THAN 1-2 months AFTER the release of the 2016 iPhone 7+, Apple's first true High-Perf iPhone. But that clearly didn't happen. Photosets v26.1, released earlier today, is Light Years Ahead of the late-2016 version of Photosets. And for the record, thanks to others, we now have our 2nd wind. And we are in Attack Mode. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 18, 2026 Heads Up, we plan to release the next update of Photosets, v26.2, by month's end, with the following: 1.) A first-cut of Next-Gen Multi View Capture support. Think unique & innovative Remote Control support ! 2.) Companion Photosets "baseball card" available on our website. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Wednesday, Feb 18, 2026 The next update of Photosets, v26.1, could be out later today. We plan to RE-submit it by 12 Noon. It NEVER got Reviewed yesterday, so we pulled it from the (Expedited) Review Queue. On a side note, we've been Asked & have Agreed, to publicly state how much App Store revenue we believe we've missed-out on (over the years). The number is $120M USD. i.e., an Avg of $1M USD per Month over the past ten years. By contrast, we estimate Apple has missed-out on $113B USD
(of mostly high-end iPhone revenue over the years). If you know Our Story, you know "precisely" what we're referring to. For those who don't, think in terms of iPhone Upgrade Cycles. i.e., the decision by iPhone owners as to when to upgrade. And think in terms of the catalysts, OR lack thereof, that drive those decisions. Few know just how detrimental Apple's App Store Mgmt Team has been to Apple's top & bottom lines. We believe the AAPL Board has some serious explaining to do. And we aim to make it happen ! -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 17, 2026 Two things to announce: 1.) We submitted Photosets v26.1 to App Review today, but after waiting two hours for it to receive its promised Expedited Review, we gave up & pulled it from the Queue. Before today, the (Expedited Review) delay had never been more than ten minutes OR so. Also, for clarity, v26.1 includes important Camera UI refinements. We have NO idea when we'll RE-submit it. Photosets has NOT done well in Tim Cook's App Store. We'll continue to update the code in the meantime. Mostly Next-Gen Multi View Capture stuff. 2.) We've begun work on a "baseball card" that describes Useful Tips on how-best to master Photosets. Worth ONE U.S. Buck ? We need a Catalyst outside the App Store, & this might just be it. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 17, 2026 In preparation for the release of the next update of Photosets, v26.1, we've been Asked & have Agreed, to clean-up our App Store Critics Corner, News, & Company webpages. That task is now done. Also, for clarity, we're moving forward with our Uber/Lyft/DoorDash-style business model for the Capture, Collection, & Annotation of "dynamic" ML Training Data. Over the past few days, more pieces of the puzzle have fallen into place. On a side note, we recommend everyone, especially Institutional Investors, put those last two sentences into Google's AI Mode & (carefully) read what it outputs. We're NOT saying it's 100% accurate WRT what we're up to, but it is an interesting read. And even gave us a few important things to think about. Also, for the record, we believe The Market doesn't really know how AI works. To us, the real value is in (proprietary) Data. CNBC had an Analyst on earlier today who (even) hinted at that. Specifically, Adam Silverschotz of Tru Arrow Partners. We believe he has a good handle on AI. Much better than most. -----
📌 BREAKING NEWS : 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Tuesday, Feb 17, 2026 The next update of Photosets, v26.1, out soon with Important Refinements & Bug Fixes. -----
