Welp here’s my best shot of the eclipse! Unfortunately, I didn’t nail my focus and so all of my photos aren’t very sharp *SIGH* 😓

For those who are curious, a mentally deranged woke pronoun weirdo is harrassing me in a Facebook thread for posting to her public profile photo with a caption of “I’m not scared of you” after she threatened me with violence.

She has also threatened to harrass my Facebook friends. So if you get a message from her, then feel free to ignore her. Feel free to also PM me if she harrasses you as well.

It’s best to not empower mentally deranged woke folks. 🤙🏼

The modern Christian’s ‘Pilgrims Progress’:

The claim of not being hate-filled and not being inclusive, the Christian affirming with love Scripture’s authority, and the goofball Twitter user.

Android fanboys & fangals, you'll be pleased to learn of the news that the recently released iOS17 killed my Verizon cellular connection. Straight up Japanese Samurai seppuku. You're welcome. 😜

Some back and forth with a fellow flat earth debunker about Christianity. I have found that most objections that atheists have towards Christianity tend to be misunderstandings about what Christianity actually teaches.

My favorite Earth photo, final edit donned with the watermark.
I threw my photos into my editing program and I didn't feel that any enhancements needed to be done, the satellite did a good job processing the photo out in space. So I just needed to throw my watermark on it and archive the photos.
Now to create a photo time lapse of the sunrise and print it for my office. 🤓 📸

Soli Deo gloria
"Behold our God, seated on his throne
Come, let us adore him
Behold our king, nothing can compare
Come, let us adore him"
Full color image of Earth that I captured from the GOES 16 satellite yesterday on my satellite dish at home! I essentially [legally] hacked the satellite signal from the weather satellite in order to bring the signal into my computer at home.
As you can see, the program that decoded the satellite signal and produced the image added a layer on the image that shows the outlines of states and countries. If you look to the left you'll see that this was right before sunrise in Texas and you can even see some clouds coming into north Texas that ended up being a pretty cloudy day.
More photos to come! I'm just swamped today.

Got my 3D printed part in today for my satellite receiver! Man it looks so smooth.
It’s made from Nylon but the 3D printing process is called “Multi-Jet Fusion”, which makes the final printed part stronger than standard nylon printing processes. This part connects the receiver to the tripod to allow very easy and precise angle changes.
However, this is just my backup part. My primary part is being machined from aluminum by a buddy of mine (photo and shout out to him coming this week), and I’ll use that because it’s going to be a lot stronger than this nylon piece. If I lose the aluminum part then I’ll have to switch to the 3D printed nylon part.
I should get the aluminum part sometime this week, with testing the receiver happening on Sunday out at Hulen Park in Cleburne. A week after the test—if successful—I’m going to camp out at Hulen Park and capture over 12 hours of images of the entire Earth from the GOES weather satellite and then put them together in a time lapse showing the sun’s light moving across the Earth.
Pretty exciting! 🤓
