youtube terminated my channel on 8 may under "sex and nudity." appeal reversed it in 20 minutes. today their public comms account replied that the channel is demonetised for "mass-produced inauthentic content." same channel. same catalogue. fourth rationale in four months. the rotation: — 2 feb 2026: channel demonetised under "inauthentic content" — 3 feb 2026: i submitted an appeal video documenting my full production pipeline end-to-end — 5 feb 2026: appeal rejected. rejection cited generic examples (mass-produced templates, slideshows, repost content) that did not describe my work — 9 feb 2026: i replied with evidence of prior manual long-form approval for advertisers. response upheld the rejection but introduced a new rationale — "sexually gratifying content" — without resolving the original. specialist team stated my appeal video was "included in the comprehensive check." the video has 0 views on the youtube dashboard. — 8 may 2026: channel terminated under "sex and nudity." second channel auto-removed under "circumvention" — 8 may 2026, 20 minutes after appeal submitted: both channels reinstated — 27 may 2026: public reply from TeamYouTube states the channel is demonetised for "mass-produced inauthentic content" no strikes. no content removals. no specific videos ever cited. three months between the february determination and the may termination with no further uploads, no further flags, no warning that ceasing all activity would itself escalate. work is original AI-assisted surrealist VFX with full voiceover authorship and a multi-stage production pipeline. each piece takes days. there is no template. the most consistent signal across this entire process is that no rationale survives engagement. the inauthentic flag dissolved when i provided evidence of authorship. the sex-and-nudity termination dissolved on appeal in 20 minutes. now the rationale has rotated back to where it started. creators working in ambiguous moderation territory — horror, body-as-subject art, AI VFX — deserve more than a rotating set of policy rationales applied to the same catalogue without specific evidence.

China Achieves First Successful Net Recovery of Reusable Long March 10B Rocket China successfully launched the Long March 10B (CZ-10B) reusable launch vehicle today (10 July 2026) from the Hainan Commercial Space Launch Site, marking a major milestone in the country’s commercial space ambitions. The mission achieved China’s first successful controlled recovery of a rocket first stage and the world’s first successful net-based recovery of an orbital-class launch vehicle. The launch took place around midday from Launch Pad No. 2 at the Hainan Commercial Space Launch Site. Approximately six minutes after stage separation, the rocket’s first stage executed a controlled vertical return to the designated recovery zone at sea. Instead of landing on a conventional drone ship, the booster was successfully captured by the offshore recovery vessel “Navigator” (领航者) using a flexible net capture system, representing the first time such a recovery method has been successfully demonstrated for an orbital launch vehicle. The Long March 10B is a new-generation commercial reusable liquid oxygen-kerosene rocket featuring a 5-metre-diameter core stage and standing nearly 70 metres tall. It is powered by seven reusable YF-100N engines. Even when configured for first-stage recovery, the rocket is capable of delivering at least 16 tonnes to low Earth orbit (LEO). The successful mission represents a significant breakthrough for China’s commercial space sector and reusable launch technology. It fills a longstanding gap in China’s capability to operate a large-lift reusable commercial launch vehicle while demonstrating an innovative recovery approach that could reduce launch costs and improve operational efficiency for future missions. The achievement also positions China among the leading nations advancing reusable launch systems, with the successful net recovery introducing a novel alternative to traditional landing platforms used by other space-launch providers.

Let’s see what happened to all these materials after I dipped them into the magical glass-forming liquid. As you can see, the entire surface of the liquid has completely solidified. But I was still able to push the side of the container in, which means that underneath, it is still liquid. So this is not one solid block of glass. Let’s look at them one by one. First, I’m taking out the pencil. Well, no glass layer formed on this one. What you can see on it is simply the dried upper crust of the liquid. To be honest, I expected this, because this isn’t really bare wood—it’s more like wood with a plastic coating. Next is the geopolymer. The result is exactly the same. This one surprised me, because this was actually the material I was most confident would develop a deposit. But apparently not. Next comes the granite. And by now, it’s pretty easy to see that the result is the same again: nothing deposited on it. The next object is the spoon. I had absolutely no expectations for this one, and absolutely nothing is exactly what happened. There’s only the dried upper crust stuck to it, and the rest will probably just run off. But what about the egg?! A few days ago, it looked as though the egg was going to be the champion, with a massive layer of glass apparently forming on it. Well, I have some bad news: not at all. And why? I have absolutely no idea. And finally, just quickly at the end… The piece of limestone suffered exactly the same fate, and so did the peach. So, in reality, the experiment was a spectacular failure. None of these objects developed a glass layer. And in my opinion, this is exactly why it’s not worth publishing the recipe yet. Because, as you can clearly see, this time it simply didn’t work—even though, in theory, I did exactly the same thing as before. So, I wish myself happy experimenting. Once again, I’ve been given a new puzzle that I have to solve. … Meanwhile, in the container right next to it, this happened. And the recipe is exactly the same! Wow! 🤯

Russians finally figure out how to disable Starlink? Connection is possibly the most important aspect of drones. Ukraine's exclusive to Starlink allows its drones to fly further and at low distances, making them difficult to shoot down and impossible to jam. It turns out that Starlink, which supposedly provides a connection that is immune to jamming by electronic warfare (EW), does have some weaknesses. On June 16, Ukrainian drone official Serhii Bezkrestnov wrote about how the Russians have been developing in this direction. The first time that the Russians managed to suppress starlink connection was apparently in 2024, in the Kharkiv oblast. Apparently, the EW system used by the Russians that time was hunted down and destroyed. And for some reason, there were no similar attempts to jam Starlink until 2026. Bezkrestnov writes that the Russians started working on anti-Starlink solutions following the start of attacks on Russian logistics by Ukrainian mid-range drones, which ramped up dramatically in May 2026. Starlink is crucial in allowing these Ukrainian drones to travel 100-200km beyond the frontlines. As such, a joint operation between the ‘Alpha’ Special Operations Centre of the Security Services of Ukraine (SBU) and the 422nd Unmanned Systems Regiment ‘Luftwaffe’ (yes) took down a Russian EW system targeting Starlink in mid-June. Bezkrestnov also shared another video of the 422nd targeting the same Russian EW complex. It is apparently called ‘Wave Dome Guarantor’ (Volna Kupol Garant). It is produced by the company ‘Russian Dome’, based in Simferopol, Crimea. Here’s how Bezkrestnov described the way it works: "A system of satellite antennas is installed on Earth, which "look" at the sky at a passing satellite. The system emits powerful interference from Earth to the satellite, so that the satellite does not hear signals from ordinary terminals. Technically, the Starlink satellite receives signals from terminals in the range of 14-14.5 GHz. This range is divided into 8 channels, each 62.5 MHz wide. The Russians conditionally took 8 satellite "dishes", directed them at the satellite, and each dish transmits interference on its own channel. That's all. The satellite is "deaf". One EW complex provides protection for about 20 square kilometers. The EW Wave Dome Garant is mounted on trailers. On each trailer, there are two antennas, and the entire complex consists of 6 trailers. The antenna system can be removed from the trailers and placed on a single platform or mounted directly on the ground. Each antenna visually resembles an egg, but inside the egg hides a satellite dish with a rotation mechanism. Like any EW system, the "Wave Dome Garant" consumes a lot of electricity. The complex can operate both on generators in each trailer and from an external power supply."

Like it or not, Space is now a dangerous neighborhood. It's time to bring back the neighorhood watch. Today we're announcing Perceptor-- our new Space Domain Awareness spacecraft, and our first product line outside of comms. The message we've heard from Space Force these last few years has been loud and clear-- GEO is the most important orbit for military space. But that presents a problem, since there are few companies that can reliably and quickly deploy spacecraft to GEO. And it's not just for the military. The infrastructure operating in GEO provides communications, navigation and other critical services that billions of people rely on. It is well known that China and Russia are now launching spacecraft capable of approaching, inspecting and potentially interfering with other satellites. Based on the flight proven MicroGEO platform Astranis is already flying on orbit today, Perceptor brings monitoring and maneuverability to GEO and other high orbits. When an unfamiliar object begins maneuvering near a critical asset, operators need more than a dot on a screen. They need eyes in the sky they can rely on. Satellites in GEO operate across an enormous area nearly 36,000 kilometers up, that encompasses the entire Earth. Ground-based systems can’t provide the persistent, close-range awareness needed to understand exactly what another spacecraft is doing or why it may be maneuvering near a critical asset. As humanity expands outward from LEO and builds out the infrastructure layer higher up, it needs safety and security in place to protect it. That's why Astranis has answered the call. Ad astra per aspera.
