📌 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 : 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. -----
