Birds in Ukraine have started building nests out of fiber optic cable from FPV drones. With radio jamming so common, operators now use trailing fiber lines for control; and when the drones go down, the cables litter the landscape.

Hotel Pays Tourist $1,200 After He Couldn’t Get a Pool Chair
A German tourist won a $1,200 settlement after failing to secure poolside lounge chairs at a packed Greek resort, reigniting debate over “towel wars” in Europe.
Just wanted to share that I got engaged!
I can’t wait to introduce her to the show and make it part of our morning routine.
Please don't disengage from the sub
I heard on the podcast today that Burnie wants to stoop engaging with this subreddit and focus on the website instead.
I think I understand what he is doing and why he is doing it, he wants the website to be the home of the community.
However, the way the podcast engages with the audience on the subreddit is one of my favorite parts. Hearing things posted on the sub ending up in the podcast, or seeing a back and forth develop is a lot of fun, and I think it just won't be the same experience on their website.
They put a lot of effort into cultivating this community on Reddit, and I'd hate to see them just leave it behind
Was cleaning my house when...
I remember a while ago Burnie was talking about weight of old controllers vs new ones and mentioned the keyboard attachment on the 360 controller. Well I somehow still have mine!
Fat Cat Photo Megathread.
Got a fat cat? Post a photo! That way Mush can get emotional support from some Morning Somewhere cats!
This is Leo (left) and Oliver.
Stella isn’t chubby like her brothers, but she will stare you down to turn on the Reverse Osmosis Water spout, as she needs that purified water to be running, not put in a bowl like a peasant.
Leo is 100% food motivated. It’s an orange cat thing. He sits at his food bowl, just like scalpers waiting for Pokemon cards at GameStop.
Curious to see your cats,

If you haven't seen the news yet, Valve just officially publicly released the 3D CAD files (STPs and STLs) for their new 2026 Steam Controller and puck.
You can now easily design and 3D print custom accessories and replacement shells.
I'm personally very interested in these mods!

Decided to log in to my old RT account after 12 years. It’s…quite the time capsule.
It’s finally here!
The process of getting a steam controller ordered was actually quite arduous. As soon as I saw the release date, I added a reminder to my calendar. The only issue was that as the day came for the orders to go live, I ended up having to do some work stuff around the time the release window was happening.
During our flight brief, I asked my helicopter pilots if we could take a tactical pause of about 7 minutes from 9:58 to 10:05 so that I could do something, but I would require cell service. They obliged the request, and during a training flight near the central California coastal mountains, I found a single bar of service and was able to submit my order near the 7,000ft peak in sight of a cell tower in the valley below.
Well, or so I thought. Every time I hit next, I was hit with an error dialogue box. I kept mashing that button until it changed to a confirmation, and we continued on with our training.
Controllers just arrived, and it is seriously great. I’ve already been well versed on setting up the OG steam controller so this one is a breeze. The inputs are much better, and it feels premium despite what reviewers are saying about the plastics.
And yes, I bought two. I regret not having purchased extras of the OG back when they first came out, and then when they were liquidating them for cheap. One for the desktop, and another for travel. No, I am not scalping the second one. Scalpers deserve a special ring of hell for what they do.
