You know what’s weird about it is that the power went out maybe half an hour hour after this happened and the power went out for about maybe five minutes and then it came back on and then the light was on and that’s when I knew

I saw my friend Mike last night in my dreams. It was really weird. It was only for maybe two seconds and he had said that he had quit drinking and he was going to introduce me to his girlfriend or Wife or whatever but it cut off just before that happened.
Mike was always the life of the party. He was always the extrovert and he was a great friend. He died a few years ago and I think it had to be because of drinking. He died of a heart attack and it’s weird because he told me he quit drinking and he looked super good. He looked skinny. He looks super skinny, which was not what I was thinking. I thought he was gonna be the old the old old guy you know that we all got to love about him.
This just popped out of nowhere. I didn’t expect it. It was the last thing I was thinking about I had no idea.
But you know I’m glad it happened. It shows me that we’re still connected even if we’re here or we’re not here.

I had a dream the other night that at Anthony Hopkins House and Tom Selleck comes by he's at the front door and he asked for me like of all people.
So I shake Tom's hand and I ask whether he wants a picture with Anthony Hopkins And he said sure. I proceeded to ask Anthony Hopkins if he like to take a picture with Tom Selleck And he's like no no no no no pictures It's not whether he's gonna be remembering me it's whether I'm gonna be remembering him and right now at this time of my life no way Jose. I can't remember what I did yesterday.

Learned today that a passkey and a security key are 2 different types of keys.
Passkey like the one on your phone can be copied on to other devices.
Security Key Yubikey can not be copied on to another device.
I thought passkeys on the phone were secure...turns out they are not. If someone got access to your phone, they could copy all of your passkeys to another device if they knew how to.

🚨 BREAKING: Scientists Teleport Quantum Light Through the Internet for the First Time!
In a major leap for quantum tech, physicists in the U.S. have successfully teleported a quantum state of light through 30 km (18 miles) of regular fiber-optic internet cable—while normal internet traffic was still flowing through it.
⚛️ What is Quantum Teleportation?
It’s not science fiction—this isn’t beaming people like in Star Trek. Instead, quantum teleportation is the transfer of a particle’s exact quantum state to another location without moving the particle itself. It recreates the original in a new place while the original disappears—like perfect duplication without copying.
🔬 This experiment used photons (particles of light) and managed to preserve their quantum information across a real-world internet environment—a massive milestone for secure communication and future quantum internet.
🌐 The breakthrough? Researchers figured out how to make delicate quantum states coexist with classical signals—something never done before under these conditions.
📄 Research:
Jordan M. Thomas et al., Quantum teleportation coexisting with classical communications in optical fiber, Optica (2024)
🚀 Implications:
This is the groundwork for quantum internet, unhackable communication, and next-gen computing—and it’s happening now.

Yes — on July 30, 2025, former President Donald Trump signed an executive order suspending the duty‑free de minimis exemption for low‑value commercial shipments from all countries.
Starting August 29, 2025, all packages valued at US $800 or less—regardless of origin or shipping method—will be subject to applicable customs duties and import procedures  .
Previously, the exemption had already been revoked for shipments from China and Hong Kong effective May 2, 2025 .
