not bad for a handheld telephoto shot if I do say so myself…

Photograph of the moon in partial eclipse. Roughly the top left third is reflecting bright sunlight, the rest is in shadow in the shape of the earth, lending it a reddish tint.

I think this is the most niche bug I've ever reported. shoutout to my haptics homies lmao docs.vrchat.com/docs/vrchat-2...

“Fixed an issue where humanoid avatars without any eye bones could have head contacts generated at the wrong position and size while height-scaled above or below their defaults. we stopped heads from tickling your feet”

🆕 on my blog: I wrote about my project to convert the Vaio lamp I found on Craigslist into a nice colourful little RGB feature for my desk 💻 drac.at/posts/2026-07-04-retr... #Vaio #WLED #projects #electronics

Photo of the Vaio lamp on a desk with an assortment of bits sat on top; a plastic bag for LED tape, the LED tape, and a controller for it.

Photograph of the Vaio lamp showing it fully assembled with the plain wood lid. It's glowing various shades of blue.

I staged this shot in all the opposite of the right ways for the reference but I'm still honestly pleased with it

realising that one queer victoria brought me a shirt from another queer victoria's car podcast across the 49th parallel which then meant I could wear it to a screening of *adolescence of utena* in the cinema on pride month; we're so fucking back folks, beep beep

hit the post-credits scene on the ultravox hub last night. unforgettable. love to you, my creatures 💜 #FuralityUltra

Virtual photograph of a large and varied pile of furry creatures hanging out all cozy-like on a ledge. Rabbits and wahs and dogs and cats and foxes and otterlions and dogs and deer and more!

Photo taken between two creatures’ heads and shoulders of the drone show drawing a rainbow track with an open-wheel racing car driving down it. Notably, there are trans pride colours in the mix.

Photograph of the finale of the fireworks show; a big “Thanks for Playing!” Is in pastel rainbow colours as a bright shaft of light shines up from the middle of the hub and meets swirls of colour in the sky.

initial technical issues aside it is *unbelievable* what they've done with Club F.Y.N.N. this year, Furality are *not* resting on their laurels with the art and tech this year, holy smokes; this is what the medium is *for* #FuralityUltra

I always kind of felt like the UKCA mark seemed a little dystopian, and, well… I figured it out #MarathonTheGame

Cropped-in image of the front of the Recon shell from Marathon (2026). It shows a boxy object emblazoned with big, squared-off lettering with the letters “UESC” in a two-by-two grid. It’s then crossed out with what might be green tape or some sort of marker ink.

Rendering of the UKCA conformity mark, introduced in the UK after Brexit to use in place of the CE mark in that country, which features big, squared-off lettering in a two-by-two grid.

this website's purpose is to show you comic strips; guess which part of the screen is the comic strip indicated by the URL? hint: it's not the one that takes up 60% of the screen!

Screenshot of the Comics Kingdom website showing a strip of Rae The Doe. Above the comic there is a large header which shows the middle two-thirds of a comic, which is not today's comic. Instead, after that top 60% of the page, there is a much smaller copy of the intended strip. Your eye is drawn to the top section because of its coloration and contrast, not to the actual content you are here for.

I have a new weirdest keyboard shortcut; the Dell C800 has a function key alternate key label suggesting a change in the screen. it *takes over from the OS* to show a text-mode message about your *fancy TFT display*

Photograph of a black plastic Dell laptop emblazoned with “Latitude” across the hinge. The display is lit up with a very raggedy-looking text warning about the Fn+F5 key combo having no effect on this system because it has a TFT display. It then lists all the other various keys’ available functions and guides you to use esc to continue.

incredible idea to prioritise “copy link” over “copy text” in an end-to-end encrypted private chat room on your famously end-to-end encrypted chat service
