*Crrreeeak*

I’m guessing that’s what I heard a few months ago. People all around our lake heard a loud explosion at the same time, but nobody ever found the source.

This is just sad

you’d be waiting several years. bitcoin wasn’t “invented” until '08. but you’re on the right track. by '09, you could have got 100btc for lunch money. sold today it would give you more than enough to live on.

Rise and Grind folks buying their CEO a new summer house

Yup, had that happen almost exactly the same one time. Also got turned down for career development training without a reason … eventually found out from another department’s manager it was because I’m a woman. My job title had simply been “technician”, after I left the guy who I’d trained and took on my responsibilities got the job title of “lead engineer” :-/

Uday Kotak questions SpaceX valuation, says only time will tell if we're in ‘mega bubble'

Time, and corporate/government funding. When corporations and governments figure out AI is not beneficial and turn off the funding tap, it becomes a bubble. This is part of how even Capitalism is corrupt. Even the language pretends there are organic mechanisms at play. Hell, I think Trump cancelled a model being used internationally the other day (fable 3). …and I’m not saying a purely private market of supply and demand would be better. What would be better is the Government diverting elite welfare away from the uber wealthy, their corporations, and current pet projects, and towards the basic needs of actual human beings. Most “bubbles” these days are just corporate welfare due to corruption, and money being stolen from more worthy and just causes: the needs of the people.

Hunger Strikers in Adelanto ICE Jail Moved to Solitary After Meeting Congressmen

Last Monday, California Reps. Judy Chu, Jimmy Gomez, and Pete Aguilar visited Adelanto Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Processing Center as the hunger strike in the immigration jail entered its second week. The Democrats met with three of the hunger strikers, who gave them a petition, signed by some 150 people inside the facility, speaking of inhumane conditions inside the jail and degrading treatment by staff. The Adelanto ICE jail is run by private prison company GEO Group. The next day, GEO Group staff entered a unit “in riot gear holding pepper spray, tear gas canisters and zip ties,” and removed two of the people who had met with congressional staff the day before. And on Wednesday, they removed the third person, according to other detainees.

Judge Orders Trump Admin to Swear $1.8 Billion Slush Fund 'Is Not Happening'

A federal judge may have dealt the final blow to President Donald Trump’s $1.8 billion “weaponization fund” on Friday, indefinitely blocking it and ordering his administration to state unequivocally that it’s no longer happening. In the face of bipartisan backlash, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche had publicly backed off plans to use the money earlier this month, and a court temporarily blocked the transfer of the money to what opponents had dubbed a “slush fund” for Trump’s supporters, including January 6 rioters who claim to be victims of government “weaponization” by the Biden administration. But The Atlantic reported on Thursday that even as the US Department of Justice (DOJ) publicly swears that the payouts are dead, administration officials have been reassuring Trump’s cronies behind the scenes that they’ll get their checks and that the administration simply needs to wait for the legal blowback to die down or find an alternative way to award them the money, which was set to follow a DOJ-brokered settlement between Trump and his own Internal Revenue Service (IRS). That may prove more difficult after Friday, however, when US District Judge Leonie M. Brinkema issued a preliminary injunction indefinitely extending her previous two-week pause on the fund. She described the arrangement, to have taxpayer funds disbursed without court rulings to “an extremely small group” that many Americans feel engaged in “unacceptable” conduct, as “problematic.” The DOJ had attempted to have the case against the fund dismissed, arguing that it was now a moot point, since Blanche had publicly declared it dead. But Brinkema said, "The [government’s] mootness argument, in my view, doesn’t go anywhere.” While the DOJ stated that the fund has “not been set up and is now not going forward," Brinkema noted that Blanche had declined to state that under oath, while Trump has publicly continued to champion the fund even as his administration has backed away from it. During the hearing in the Eastern District of Virginia, Brinkema pressed DOJ lawyer Andrew Block on why, if the fund was truly defunct, the administration had not formally rescinded the order setting it up. He said he didn’t know. The judge gave Blanche, Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward Jr., and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, whose department would have overseen the fund, one week to sign a “clear, unambiguous” declaration stating under penalty of perjury that the fund is dead, and wrote in the order that they must affirm that it “will not proceed in any manner, or under any name.” She said in order for the lawsuit to be thrown out, the government needed to put it in writing because “we don’t have the kind of absolute certainty that this fund wouldn’t rear its head.” CEO @SkyePerryman and Senior Counsel Pooja Boisture break down our major slush fund win from court. pic.twitter.com/ngneLRsl8R — Democracy Forward (@DemocracyFwd) June 12, 2026 Outside the courtroom, Skye Perryman, the president and CEO of Democracy Forward—the watchdog group that sued the DOJ—celebrated that the court had “put the brakes on Donald Trump’s slush fund.” The group is representing several plaintiffs who say they’d be harmed if the fund were to be enacted. They include a former federal prosecutor fired after leading January 6 cases; the city of New Haven, Connecticut, which has been targeted by the administration over its sanctuary policies; the National Abortion Federation, which says the fund could reward anti-abortion activists convicted of clinic-related offenses; and the watchdog group Common Cause, which argues that the opaque scheme could embolden January 6 defendants. “We were thrilled that the judge understood the significant harm that our clients face as a result of the fund, as well as the American people,” said Democracy Forward senior counsel Pooja Boisture. “We were thrilled that she got it right. She understood that this was not a partisan issue.” It remains unclear whether the order would stop the administration from pursuing other methods for rewarding Trump’s allies. Reuters reported on Friday that his legal allies have discussed dusting off a 1946 law called the Federal Tort Claims Act, which would allow individuals to file administrative claims and lawsuits that could be settled out of court with a lot of flexibility for the government. “The Trump administration cannot be trusted with the public’s money,” said Omar Noureldin, Common Cause’s senior vice president for policy and litigation. "We’ve successfully locked the president’s personal slush fund for now, and we’ll keep the pressure on until it’s shut down for good.” From Common Dreams via This RSS Feed.

Iran Reveals Intel. Op. Tracing US Military Aircraft to Diego Garcia

Iranian sources claim a sophisticated intelligence operation tracked US P-8 aircraft and F-35 jets across multiple bases in the Gulf and Jordan. Iran has executed a sophisticated intelligence and operational plan in the strikes launched against several US military bases in the region early Thursday morning, Fars reported, citing a senior Iranian military source. The source, speaking to Fars News Agency, stated that the strikes inflicted significant losses on expensive equipment belonging to US forces in the region. In a detailed account of the operation, the source reported that Iranian forces tracked the flight path and positioning of two large US P-8 aircraft from the moment they took off. One of the aircraft was reportedly arriving from the Diego Garcia airbase in the central Indian Ocean, while the other was flying from a US base in Western Europe, heading toward the southern Gulf. According to the source, the precise locations of these two aircraft, at the Shaikh Isa Air Base in Bahrain and the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, were subsequently struck by Iranian precision weapons. Furthermore, Iran monitored the positioning of at least three US F-35 fighter jets inside a hangar at the Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan. The source asserted that the surveillance continued until the final moments before missile launches, at which point the exact location of the hangar was targeted with long-range, solid-fuel missiles. Iran retaliates to US aggression, hits US basesEarlier on Thursday, Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) announced it launched retaliatory strikes against US military positions in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain, in a “punitive action against the aggressor” operation in response to renewed US aggression against Tehran. According to Tasnim News Agency, the IRGC fired 12 ballistic missiles at Jordan’s Al-Azraq Air Base and its control center, destroying what it claimed were “these facilities and a large number of fighter aircraft,” including US F-35, F-15, and F-16 jets reportedly stationed at the base. In a separate statement cited by IRNA, the IRGC said it carried out two waves of operations, striking “18 important targets belonging to the US Army” at bases in Kuwait and Bahrain. The Guard specifically identified Kuwait’s Ali Al Salem and Ahmad Al-Jaber air bases and Bahrain’s Sheikh Isa Air Base. Earlier, Iranian media reports had also indicated that the US Fifth Fleet in Bahrain came under attack. Strait of Hormuz shut downIn further retaliatory actions, the IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters issued a statement declaring the immediate closure of the Strait of Hormuz. “From this moment, due to insecurity in the region, the Strait of Hormuz is declared closed to the passage of any type of vessel, including oil tankers and commercial ships, and any passage will be struck,” the statement said. The announcement cited “the continued mischief of criminal America” and “the beginning of attacks by that country’s aggressive army on some areas in the south of Hormozgan province.” The IRGC also denied US claims that ships were still passing through the strait, stating, “The US claim of a ship crossing the said strait is denied.” US launches aggression on IranEarlier on June 11, Iranian air defenses were activated in several areas early Wednesday after reports emerged of explosions in southern Iran and neighboring Iraq, according to Iranian state media. Air defense systems were triggered west of the capital, Tehran, while explosions were heard in the cities of Sirik and Minab, both located in the Hormozgan province. Iranian state television later reported that air defenses had also been activated in Asaluyeh, a major energy hub in southern Iran. The broadcaster added that five hostile projectiles had targeted a location in Minab. Further explosions were reported in Bandar Abbas, including in the vicinity of the city’s airport and an Air Force base, according to the official IRNA news agency. The activation of air defense systems came shortly after Iranian authorities announced heightened readiness in western Tehran and several southern regions, including strategic energy sites, as regional military tensions continue to rise. Meanwhile, Tasnim News Agency denied earlier claims of explosions on Qeshm Island and other nearby islands. The agency suggested that some of the reported sounds were linked to broader clashes in the Gulf rather than direct strikes on the islands themselves.

On Independence Day, progressives call out US military presence in the Philippines

By Trisha NasamBulatlat.com Various progressive groups led by the Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) marched to Kalaw Avenue in Manila today, June 12, to commemorate the 128th Philippine Independence Day. Protesters condemned Ferdinand Marcos Jr. administration’s close ties with the United States, saying the continued presence of US troops and military operations in the country remains a barrier to genuine independence. “They (government) do not uphold genuine freedom anchored on justice because they are dragging us to war,” said Makabayan President Liza Maza in Filipino in her speech. Maza also criticized the planned US-backed Pax Silica industrial hub set to rise at the New Clark City, which science and environmental groups have opposed over issues of displacement and geopolitical risks.

Venus and Jupiter: Conjunction from Avebury

To see Venus and Jupiter together this month, you won’t need binoculars or even a telescope. Just look up after sunset and you’ll find them emerging as the sky grows dark near the western horizon. In fact, on June 9 the two brightest planets were in close conjunction, separated on the sky by less than 2 degrees from our perspective. Since (brighter) inner planet Venus orbits the Sun faster than outer planet Jupiter, it catches up with and passes the outer planet along the ecliptic roughly every 13 months. But every three years or so their resulting conjunction can be viewed far enough from the Sun to be easily seen in Earth’s twilight skies. On June 9, the two celestial beacon’s close “cosmic kiss” was captured here next to the two large standing stones at the cove within a 4,000 year old stone circle at Avebury, UK. Larger than Stonehenge, the Avebury henge and stone circle complex is also recognized as one of the most significant neolithic ceremonial sites on planet Earth. Source>

do you ventilate?

I’m in an attic apartment I’m so sorry that must be lile being in a pressure cooker! I have the same strategy and I’m in the sandwich filling apartment. I mentioned in my top level comment, but I’ve also got two box fans, one quite powerful, that when it cools down overnight I point them out the window of the hot room to bring in the cold from the the other rooms and outdoors. I don’t remember the scientific principle behind it but, idk I think it works. Otherwise the hot rooms just become a heat sink. Great for indoor plants that love the heat, and for getting your laundry dry, but not so good for us who don’t like the heat as much.

Small acceptable amounts allows for a slightly larger amount next time.

That’s a false equivalency. Destroying a concentration camp doesn’t put anyone into a position of power. It’s incremental, yes, but it’s fundamentally anti-fascist. Voting in Democrats, when literally 100 off them voted for more ICE, when Obama and Clinton turned Libya into an open-air slave market, when Obama hired Tom Homan and created the conditions for ICE BORTAC to be used in major cities, when Obama and Homan deported 3m people, double what Trump has managed do in both terms so far… That’s not incremental harm reduction. That’s literally voting for harm. It would be the equivalent of making sure there were social workers at the concentration camps, or demanding we send the prisoners art supplies. It’s not actually incrementalization of anything. It’s just a feel-good veneer on atrocity. Honestly, there’s so few examples of presidents that didn’t preside over total fucking atrocities that maybe we’re coming at this from different places. I am coming at it from the USA is a fundamental violent, white supremacist, misogynistic, genocidal, enslaving, and mass murdering entity and it has been since day 1. There’s no harm reduction through voting here. People like to point at Obama’s blocking of Keystone XL as an example of harm reduction but ignore the fact that he expanded domestic fossil fuel production more than any other president. Was blocking the Keystone XL harm reduction? No. It was appeasement. There’s a huge difference. Similarly, people like to say that civil rights wouldn’t have gone anywhere if Ds weren’t in charge, but Nixon was forced by the civil rights movement to make policy concessions, just the Ds were. This is the only thing that works. Forcing them to appease. You want harm reduction, you’re going to have to create interest convergence, and voting doesn’t do that.

Persistance of posts and account data post-deletion

Hello fediferse, I was wondering, if I ever want to delete a post or an account on a service that uses ActivityPub, like Mastodon or Pixelfed, is it going to persist across the fediverse? Let’s say I made a political post on Mastodon using a profile with my real name and picture and I need to travel to the U.S. for work purposes and I don’t want the CBP to find out about it and get turned back or arrested on entry. If I delete this post, will it be completely removed across all instances that synchronized it? Is a deleted post traceable in any way? Is it kept in a log or a database on ferdiverse instances? With governments across the globe increasingly surveiling us online and scrutinizing everything we say, I’m starting to think I should plainly delete any account that has personally identifiable information like my real name and photo. I initially thought it would be easier to connect with family and friends, but now I’m growing increasingly worried about how this can be used against me. I just want to know if I can completely erase any post or any account from the fediverse or if there will always be a trace somewhere and it could get picked up by any government surveilance. Whether encrypted or not.

The New Protein Guidelines Reignited the Plant vs. Animal Debate

Protein recommendations have changed and not everyone is happy about it. Here’s what the new federal protein guidelines actually mean for your health, and why the pushback is missing the point. A recent PBS article argued that doubling the current protein guidelines would push people toward junk food and processed products. But as a cardiologist, Dr. Bret Scher explains why that concern, while understandable, is misplaced. The real issue isn’t the target. It’s the message around how to hit it. ::: spoiler summerizer Protein debate and core thesis The protein debate is a grocery-cart issue, not just a technical guideline dispute. A recent PBS article says the new federal protein target is unnecessary and will push people toward junk food. That take is misleading because a higher protein target can improve health when it is built from whole foods. The old rule and its limit The old rule was 0.8 g of protein per kilogram of ideal body weight. That number was built around nitrogen balance: enough intake to avoid losing muscle. 0.8 g/kg is the floor for basic maintenance, not the ceiling for growth, training, strength, or aging well. Healthy adults without elevated metabolic demands were the baseline for the old number. Why the new target is different The new target, 1.2 to 1.6 g/kg of ideal body weight, is meant to address real-world metabolic needs. The goal is not protein bars, sweet protein cereals, protein snacks, or ultra-processed food with a protein halo. The plant-based-food trend already showed how a health halo can turn into ultra-processed fake meats and packaged products. The answer is food literacy plus a better protein target, not keeping the target low. What eating more protein should mean More protein comes from whole foods: eggs, chicken, meat, fish, beans, and lentils. Protein package wording does not make a processed product healthy. The practical rule is to seek protein in real food, not wrappers or bars. Why protein matters metabolically Protein improves satiety, and satiety lowers the pull toward sugary processed snacks. Protein improves body composition by helping the body preserve muscle and preferentially lose fat. Resistance training strengthens this body-composition effect, even when the training dose is modest. Higher protein intake supports glucose control, insulin sensitivity, and healthier body composition. Those outcomes matter for cardiometabolic health because muscle, glucose handling, and insulin function shape long-term risk. Who needs special attention Teenagers, athletes, and older adults have higher metabolic demands than the healthy sedentary adult behind the old baseline. Growing teenagers need protein for development. Training athletes need protein for adaptation and recovery. Older adults need protein to preserve mobility and resist muscle loss. Plant and animal protein practicality Plant proteins can fit into a healthy diet. Plant proteins usually deliver less bioavailable protein per calorie and per food weight than animal foods. Hitting 1.2 to 1.6 g/kg from beans and lentils alone can require a large food volume. Animal foods make the target easier to reach with whole foods. Animal and plant sources can both be part of the real-food path. Bottom line The new protein target is sound when applied through whole foods. The old 0.8 g/kg target was about avoiding decline, not thriving. Better guidance means raising protein while steering people away from processed protein-branded foods.

The Soviets won the Space Race the moment they put Sputnik in the orbit of the Earth...

Because it finally forced the rest of the world, especially the United States, to pour resources into space research that the Capitalists, who solely function on a profite incentive and not the common good of humanity, would have never done it by themselves. The Communists achieved their primary objective. To venture onto the space exploration.
