For several years, I have been managing our family photographs, and upon realizing that there was no suitable software to fulfill my specific requirements, I chose to develop my own applications. The source code and the released software are available in a public repository on GitHub:

https://t.co/GeTKFo7DWE

This video serves as a brief introduction, with more detailed instructional videos to be released subsequently. Meanwhile, a Wiki page is accessible on the GitHub site:

The software’s objective is to label images by embedding information into the metadata and creating duplicates in a Labeled subfolder, thereby preserving the original images unaltered except for their metadata. After arranging the photographs into album folders, another application will compile them into a book format compatible with Amazon Kindle for potential publication. By assigning an ISBN and publishing the book, users ensure that their work is preserved for future generations.

I am offering this software to anyone interested in preserving their family history as I have done using this program. Please be aware that, as this is not commercial software, it has not undergone extensive testing. To be precise, the only testing conducted thus far has been on my personal computer, specifically a Surface Laptop 7 with an Intel processor running Windows 11.

I got a call from Galveston County tax office that my custom license plates were ready for pickup. I said I would be there shortly.

Here's a @Copilot summary of the main points from the article titled **"On Hens, Eggs, Temperatures and CO₂: Causal Links in Earth’s Atmosphere"** by Koutsoyiannis et al. :

---

### 🧠 Core Thesis
- The commonly accepted view that rising CO₂ causes temperature increases is challenged.
- Using a stochastic causality framework, the authors argue the opposite: **temperature changes precede and potentially cause changes in CO₂ levels**.

---

### 🔍 Methodology
- Introduces a stochastic impulse response function (IRF) to analyze causality between temperature (T) and CO₂ concentration.
- Uses differenced time series (ΔT and Δln[CO₂]) to avoid spurious correlations.
- Applies constraints like nonnegativity and smoothness to IRF estimation.
- Compares observational data with climate model outputs.

---

### 📊 Key Findings
- Across multiple datasets (Mauna Loa, South Pole, satellite and reanalysis temperature data), the directionality is consistently **ΔT → Δln[CO₂]**.
- Time lags between temperature and CO₂ changes range from 7 to 10 months.
- Climate models (CMIP6, UKESM1) show the opposite causality direction (**CO₂ → T**) but with lower explained variance, suggesting poor model fidelity.
- A toy model based on the proposed causality explains up to 99.9% of CO₂ variance.

---

### 🌎 Broader Implications
- The study questions the mainstream narrative that human CO₂ emissions are the primary driver of recent warming.
- Suggests other factors like ocean heat content, albedo changes, and ENSO may be more influential.
- Emphasizes the complexity of climate systems and the limitations of current models.

---

### 🧪 Philosophical and Epistemological Notes
- Advocates for open scientific inquiry and skepticism of popular but untested assumptions.
- Highlights the importance of direct data analysis over model-based inference.

@MicrosoftHelps My computer has 60 GB taken up by a Windows. old folder. What are the consequences of removing that folder and restoring that space?

The Phone Link application in @Microsoft @Windows 11 serves as an effective utility for connecting a smartphone to the Windows 11 operating system. This video demonstrates various methods for transferring photographs from the phone to the computer. Notably, the straightforward method of selecting a photo within Phone Link and performing a Save As operation results in significant degradation of image resolution and loss of metadata.

In the video I am using a @SamsungUS Galaxy S26 Ultra phone.

@PaulDMauro @jasoninthehouse Jason, I saw you on that show and my favorite part was when you were talking about your Tesla. FSD is brilliant and I wouldn't drive any other way.

Since the 1990s, there have been 30 Conference of Parties (COP) meetings aimed at addressing climate change. Given their claim carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion are the primary cause, this graph illustrates the effectiveness of these conferences.

Interestingly, those who have been the most vocal advocates for climate action are now expressing concerns about rising gasoline prices.

Despite numerous meetings and ongoing activities such as private jet travel and social events, the overall outcomes suggest limited success in achieving substantial progress. 🤔

Once I got the @Tesla update v2026.14.3, I headed over to the Home Depot parking lot to test out the summon feature.

This presentation was delivered at the Tyrrell Historical Library in Beaumont, Texas, on January 19, 2024. It focused on the preservation of the legacy of author and historian W. T. Block through the utilization of Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) to maintain his works in the formats of eBooks, paperbacks, and hardcover editions.

It turns out my new Tesla is a bit of a party girl!

@LamarMK My wife recently started driving my Tesla, she fell in love, and now she says she wants it for herself.

Yesterday I ordered a new Tesla Model Y Premium for myself.

There are only two kinds of cars in the world: the Tesla and not the Tesla.

Big corporations with long-term government contracts have more in common with socialism than they do with capitalism.

There is no competition with these companies.

Along comes a small company like SpaceX and the difference between capitalism and socialism becomes apparent.

It is almost like President Eisenhower could see into the future when he warned us to beware of the military industrial complex.
