Mark this moment.
This is where the endgame begins—though it might take two years to play out.
A President of the United States is openly linking the *Pentagon* and rigging elections for his party.
He is framing an authoritarian takeover as something the *U.S. military* wants.
it was theorized that humans in the bronze age had a "bicameral mind" where they experienced thoughts as commands or advice from external gods instead of from themselves
traditionalists must be thrilled at this novel new take on an old classic
Commercial advertising, product placements, and corporate-sponsored promotions are explicitly prohibited on national parklands. The White House lawn is a unit of the National Park System. It also violates standard Anti-Vending and Solicitation Laws as well as misuse of public funds and government endorsement ethics. Everything this administration does spits in the face of our laws. Everything is a grift.
NVIDIA gave you free game streaming for 10 years.
It was called GameStream. Built into GeForce Experience. You streamed any game from your PC to your TV, your phone, your tablet. No subscription. No cap. It just worked.
Then on March 29, 2023, NVIDIA force-deleted it.
A mandatory Shield TV update removed the feature off devices customers had already paid for. A class action lawsuit was filed three weeks later.
NVIDIA then pushed those same customers toward GeForce NOW at $9.99 to $19.99 a month. In January 2026, they added a 100-hour monthly cap.
Coincidence.
The community did not wait.
They reverse-engineered the GameStream protocol. Built an open source server from scratch. Made it work on NVIDIA GPUs. Then AMD. Then Intel.
NVIDIA's free tool only worked on NVIDIA hardware. The community's free tool works on everyone's hardware.
It is called Sunshine. 37,835 stars on GitHub. GPL-3.0.
Built by the LizardByte team. Lead by ReenigneArcher with 1,001 commits. Pushed to GitHub today, June 10, 2026.
What it does:
Stream any game from your PC to any Moonlight client. Phone, tablet, TV, laptop, another PC.
4K resolution at 120 frames per second with HDR.
H.264, HEVC, and AV1 encoding. Hardware accelerated.
NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs.
Controller emulation for Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch Pro.
Web UI for setup and pairing.
Unlimited sessions. No cap. No timer.
Windows, Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD.
Local network or over the internet with UPnP or Tailscale.
Now compare the math.
GeForce NOW Performance: $9.99 a month. NVIDIA hardware only. 100-hour monthly cap.
GeForce NOW Ultimate: $19.99 a month. $239.88 a year. NVIDIA hardware only. 100-hour monthly cap.
Sunshine: $0. Forever. NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. No cap. No timer.
Ars Technica wrote the obituary in April 2023: "NVIDIA's GameStream is dead. Sunshine and Moonlight are better replacements."
NVIDIA took away a free product. The community gave it back. Better. On more hardware.
But DO NOT install Sunshine. We should all keep paying NVIDIA $20 a month for what used to be free.
100% Open Source. (Link in the comments)
A classic conundrum. Often times, i sit at the table feverishly devouring the free chips and salsa. Why not? It’s delicious, carbs are good for energy, and I love salsa. But sometimes, it is too much. I eat a basket, my friends had maybe 5 chips and I had 85, the waiter comes around, they ask, “more chips for the table?”, I know i should say no, but my friends, having only had 5, say “Yes please!” There it goes. It happens again. A fresh basket comes around, I eat another 75 chips, my friends get maybe 12. It keeps happening until the economy bursts, as chip prices have skyrocketed because of the AI industry
An update on our TV experiment.
In May, my wife mentioned maybe it was time to get a TV again. Almost 18 months since the old one broke. I agreed, and we bought one.
Here's what surprised me. The day it arrived, the kids were excited. I set it up, tested it, turned it off. And nobody asked to put it on.
That evening, after school and homework, they went to the park like always. Same on Wednesday and Thursday. The TV just sat on the wall like a forgotten thing. It first came on that Friday for movie night, same as always, just on the TV now instead of the laptop.
Three weeks in, and life is exactly how it was before. On Friday they watched a movie, and we had a short family Mario game session. Saturday, we built a lego puzzle until it was time for the Champions League final. Sunday, they wanted to go play with their friends after our family reading time, and it was my wife and I who said no, sit back, let's watch a family movie together.
That's a new thing. Twice a month we pick something educational and talk about it after. A chance to teach them about the world, about faith, about what other people go through. The rest of the time they pick their own.
People will say it's all devices now anyway, which is true. But the kids only use their tablets one hour each on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and have done so for years. They walk around with books instead of devices.
I'm quite happy that the habit held even after the TV came back. Screentime is STILL way down, and family time is way up.
It's still the best family experiment of all time. Let's see where we are by December.
During his campaign for first term, Donald Trump was asked how he showed $916 million net operating losses in 1995 and setting it off for next 18 years without paying any federal taxes.
Not knowing what to answer, Trump said:
"I absolutely used it, and so did Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett took a massive deduction."
We've to learn from Buffett as to how to deal with facts and data without being emotional or vindictive.
The very next day Buffett shared his income tax returns and said:
"I have paid federal income tax every year since 1944, when I was 13. Though, being a slow starter, I owed only $7 in tax that year. I have copies of all 72 of my returns and none uses a carryforward."
He further noted that while he made $2.85 billion in charitable contributions in 2015, tax laws properly limited his deductions, meaning more than $2.85 billion of his donations were not taken as deductions and never would be.
He asked Trump to share his tax returns in public. Not knowing what to do, Trump said he is under IRS audit and cannot publicly share his returns.
For which Buffett responsded:
"I have been audited by the IRS multiple times and am currently being audited. I have no problem in releasing my tax information while under audit. Neither would Mr. Trump -at least he would have no legal problem."
Buffett then invited Trump to any place, any time before the election so they could both bring their tax returns, sit down, and let the public ask them questions.
Trump never accepted the invitation.
From then on Trump never once even uttered the name Warren Buffett.
Looks like Trump no longer even eat buffets.
@TranscendHeaven@rigby_1only@PopCrave Taylor swift. Her website has the same clouds. She's doing a song for the new toy story and probably releasing a new album
@IntraHikari@tomowget@NondescriptRed Just started playing (got tired of stellaris after 6k hours) so I was wondering. If you take over the world, immigration stops, right?
@FUZxxl@Devon_Eriksen_@jen_tstv Ahhh. I understand. Lived in a house like that, the landlord replaced the upstairs windows, but never the downstairs one, so had to use a portable one with scrap wood and duct tape(I was broke 😂) to cover the rest of the open gap
I know those can get pricey though.
Does anyone else with ADHD feel like they’re always just slightly on the outside of every friend group, no matter how hard they try?
You’re there. You laugh at the jokes. You show up. But you still feel… one step removed. Like you’re watching the connection happen instead of fully being in it.
Not looking for pity. Just wondering if anyone else has always felt like they’re present but not really ”there”.
I ruined going out to eat for my family after I graduated from college in 2017.
Because what I made tasted better, was cheaper, usually faster, and it didn't make us sick afterwards.
The easiest win was pizza.
I've made over a thousand pizzas since I graduated in 2017.
It takes less than 5 minutes of work and you do something else for an hour while you wait for the dough to proof. You can make batches of dough and just have it chill out in your fridge for the week.
My go to recipe is 300g water, 500g of bread flour, 12.5g of salt, 10g of sugar, 3-5g of yeast, and if you feel like it 20g of oil.
That gets you 2- 14 to 16 inch pizzas or 4 personal size pizzas.
The same dough can make a pretty good loaf of bread, bread sticks, calzones, stombolis, etc.
Make your own food. It's 100x easier than you think.

According to psychology some people will never reach out and speak to you again because they don't have the maturity to cope with the fact that they did you wrong and you didn't deserve it. Since they lack accountability, they will create a made-up narrative about you so they don't feel bad about themselves.
If you have a full time job and make minimum wage you make $58 per day. Members of Congress get an allotment of $79 per day for food which is not part of the $174k yearly salary. It’s time for us to show our true power.
Saw a reddit post that was like "so there's theoretically no solution to the fact that all prices are getting more expensive, is the plan for everybody to be below the poverty line?"
yeah man. that's literally the plan.
A president's trading of securities for his personal account can in no way be argued to constitute activity that falls within the "outer perimeter" of his "official responsibilities." If it is based on inside information used in violation of his fiduciary responsibilities, it is brazenly criminal conduct, and he would not be immune from prosecution for that criminal conduct even under the Supreme Court's 2024 decision in his favor in the Jan. 6 case.
