Today we honor Sts. Isaac Jogues, John de Brébeuf & companions, the North American Martyrs. These Jesuit priests and lay missionaries crossed an ocean to bring Christ to this land, and gave their lives for Him between 1642 and 1649. Pray for us! #Catholic #NorthAmericanMartyrs

Oct 18 is St. Luke's day, the evangelist who gave us the Christmas story, the Prodigal Son, and Acts. Fitting that today is also World Mission Sunday: Luke told how the Gospel went out "to the ends of the earth." St. Luke, pray for us. #StLuke #Catholic

Meta released Muse Spark Open, an open-weight AI model that can run on a Mac. One catch: running it locally takes at least 1 TB of RAM, and it runs best on a Mac Studio with M5 Ultra. It's available now through several API platforms.
