What's happening in LA is extremely abnormal. How did Spencer Pratt go from a 77% chance of advancing to now a 0.5% chance?
California is now blocking the Feds from checking into the election.
Prior to the election in May, Governor Newsom signed SB 73. This law, effective immediately before the June 2 primary, prohibits unauthorized access, disruption, modification, or seizure of voter rolls, voter lists, or certified voting technology by law enforcement (including federal agents) without a court order or specific state election law investigation.
GIVE THE PEOPLE TRANSPARENCY
After heart surgery, the parents of a 13-year-old girl were told that their daughter was dying, and that they should start making end-of-life decisions, including donating her organs.
Upon transferring their daughter to another hospital however, they were told that doctors at Oregon Health and Science University had installed her new heart valve upside down.
“Doctors at Seattle Children's removed the inverted valve and replaced it with a different one, properly positioned. Her heart promptly began to function correctly. She was successfully taken off cardiac bypass and no longer required ECMO.
Her condition continued to stabilize over the following days in Seattle Children's ICU. After more than a month in critical condition, she was able to return home with her parents.”
Elon Musk told Ron Baron he's building a chip that will be 2 to 3 times better than NVIDIA - at 10% of the cost
"I have the entire physical design of the chip laid out in memory - I can visualize the whole thing"
when TSMC told him a new fab takes 5 years he said: "five years to me is an eternity - my timelines go one year, two year, and at year three it goes to infinity"
so he's building his own
Tesla's self-driving has logged 10 billion miles - 4 times safer than a human driver - with the new chip it will be 10x
"I don't own any vacation homes - just one house in Austin and a tiny house at Starbase - friends come to visit and they think I'm kidding"

🔻 SUNSCREEN ENTERS YOUR BLOODSTREAM IN UNDER 24 HOURS. THE FDA CONFIRMED THIS IN 2019. THEY DID NOT PULL A SINGLE PRODUCT. THEY TOLD YOU TO KEEP APPLYING.
In January 2020, a randomized clinical trial published in JAMA found that six active sunscreen chemicals — including oxybenzone and avobenzone — absorb into the bloodstream after a single application. Not after years. After one use. At concentrations exceeding the FDA's own safety threshold by 180x to 500x.
The FDA did not recall them. They issued a statement: "Continue to use sunscreen."
Oxybenzone is a confirmed endocrine disruptor. It mimics estrogen. It crosses the placental barrier. It has been found in 97% of Americans tested. It is in breast milk. It is in amniotic fluid. It is in your children before they are born.
A former formulation chemist — 11 years at a top-3 sunscreen manufacturer:
"We had internal absorption data by 2014. Full transdermal penetration within 26 minutes of application. The compounds don't sit on the skin. They were never designed to. The delivery mechanism is identical to a pharmaceutical patch. We knew this. The mitigation strategy was never reformulation — it was public messaging. Keep the consumer applying. The margins on chemical sunscreens are 1,400% above production cost. Mineral alternatives cost 4x more to produce. The decision was financial. Every internal document confirmed that."
They told you the sun causes cancer. What they didn't tell you:
Vitamin D — produced only through direct sun exposure — is the single most critical regulator of immune surveillance against malignant cells. A 2023 meta-analysis confirmed: Vitamin D deficiency correlates with a 30-60% increased risk of colorectal, breast, and prostate cancers.
They blocked the one thing your immune system needs to fight cancer. Then sold you a chemical that enters your blood and mimics hormones. Melanoma rates have increased 320% since 1975 — the exact period sunscreen use became widespread.
The paradox is published. McGill University, 2023: "Sunscreen usage is climbing, but so are melanoma and skin cancer rates."
They didn't protect you from cancer. They removed your defense against it and charged you $14 a bottle.
15 minutes of direct sun daily. No screen. Arms and face exposed. Your body produces 10,000-20,000 IU of Vitamin D in that window — the amount they sell you in pills because they blocked the free version.

They made you afraid of the sun so they could sell you a hormone disruptor and call it protection. The sun is free. That's why they taught you to fear it. Share this.
For the first time ever, an imported vehicle became the best-selling car in South Korea and it’s the Tesla Model Y
Not just the best-selling EV
The best-selling vehicle overall
Historic moment in Hyundai and Kia’s home market 🇰🇷
May sales:
• Tesla Model Y: 8,762
• Kia Sorento: 7,836
• Hyundai Grandeur: 5,183
Tesla as a brand sold 10,866 cars in Korea last month, more than BMW and Mercedes-Benz combined
Even crazier: roughly one in three imported cars sold in Korea this year has been a Tesla
Tesla has now been the No. 1 import brand in Korea for four straight months
No imported model had ever done this before
A Tesla did
n=3 but this is starting to paint a picture
in all of the pillar/pole collisions we've seen the following is always true:
1. empty context / start of drive (aka fsd doesn't have memory of objects/pillars/pole entering a blindspot)
2. pillar/pole is in a camera blindspot
in all of them it appears that the objects do exit blindspots, at least momentarily, within seconds of starting, so in theory this a solvable problem without additional memory/compaction methods for these specific cases
surely, though, there are cases though where objects will not exit a blind spot and better memory mechanisms are going to be needed as long as blindspots exist
in the meantime, i'm happy to use smart summon when not parked around any pillars
It’s just an estimate. All charges are removed when they actually get the car based on the in-warranty status. That’s what I’ve always experienced, anyways.
They’re just preparing you for and getting a legal sign off in the event that the damage was user error and not covered by warranty, I suspect.
APPLE BANKS ON YOU PAYING $2.99/MONTH FOR ICLOUD FOREVER.
You don't need it.
I freed 47GB in 10 minutes without spending a cent.
Here are the 5 steps to copy:
1 ▸ Kill the Photo Storage Trap
Go to Settings → Photos → turn OFF “iCloud Photos” if you don’t use it. Then open the Photos app → Albums → Recently Deleted → Delete All. iOS secretly holds deleted photos for 30 days. That alone usually frees 3-8GB instantly.
2 ▸ Offload Apps You Don’t Actually Use
Settings → General → iPhone Storage. Scroll through the list. Tap every app you haven’t opened in 30+ days and hit “Offload App.” It deletes the app but keeps your data — so you can reinstall anytime without losing a thing. Easy 5-10GB back.
3 ▸ Clear the Hidden Cache in Safari and Messages
Settings → Safari → Clear History and Website Data.
Then Settings → Messages → Keep Messages → change to “1 Year” (or 30 days if you’re ruthless). Old attachments, GIFs, and message threads take up more space than most apps. This usually recovers 4-12GB.
4 ▸ Delete Large Attachments Without Scrolling Forever
Settings → General → iPhone Storage → tap Messages → “Review Large Attachments.” iOS shows you every large photo, video, and file ever sent to you, sorted by size. Delete the junk in 2 minutes. I pulled 11GB out of this one step alone.
5 ▸ Force Reboot to Clear System Cache
Once everything’s deleted, force restart your iPhone (volume up → volume down → hold side button until the Apple logo). iOS rebuilds its system cache on restart and releases storage it was holding in the background. Final 2-4GB usually shows up here.
No iCloud upgrade. No new phone. No paid app.
A Tesla Is twice as likely to reach 250,000 miles as a Subaru, according to a new iSeeCars study covering more than 174 million vehicles.
In a ranking of the car brands most likely to reach 250,000 miles, @Tesla beat out Ford, Kia, Chevy, BMW, VW, Mazda, Subaru, Mercedes, Volvo, and many others, and ranked 3rd overall in the luxury category.
