Booster 21 went through round 3 of cryo testing at Massey's last night...and this one was MUCH more like what we are used to seeing...with a full load and lots of venting as pressures were altered before a full detank.

At Massey's, it's probable that B21 has been ambient proof tested. Tank farm venting was spotted and some small, almost *not there* venting was seen from the CH4 tank. Always hard to be definitive with these tests but if they cryo over the next day or so, we'll know.

There's a subculture of Chinese hardware modders quietly turning the Mac Mini into the Raspberry Pi of local AI. Portable battery rigs. Custom cooling shrouds. 3D-printed docks with LED status widgets. English AI-Twitter hasn't noticed yet, iykyk.
Frame one. A Mac Mini strapped into a hand-built rig sitting in front of a wall screen running Openclaw, a Chinese Claude Code gateway most people over here have never opened.
Frame two. A different Mac Mini docked into a 20,000mAh 150W portable power station. Full mobile inference box for under $700 with the enclosure printed on a Bambu at home.
Frame three. A Mac Mini clipped into a mini status display module. The screen reports GPU wattage in real time so you can watch the model actually thinking through the glass.
Frame four. A Mac Mini shoved into a full-tower 3D-printed shroud with NASA-style venting and carrying handles. Apple silicon inside, community-designed chassis outside.
Nothing here is for sale. The scene runs on shared STL files, Xiaohongshu build logs, and modded firmware repos on Chinese Github mirrors.
Local AI is already a hardware-modding culture that ships weekly if you can read Chinese build logs. That's the whole gap. Everything else is discourse.

🇫🇷🎒🌡️ Il offre 10 VENTILATEURS à une école en pleine CANICULE… mais ils sont retirés.
En 2019, à Orly, en pleine canicule, un père d'élève a dépensé près de 400€ pour offrir 10 VENTILATEURS NEUFS à l'école maternelle de sa fille, où les températures atteignaient près de 40 °C dans certaines classes. Après le passage d'un INSPECTEUR, l'établissement a été contraint de retirer les appareils.
L'inspection académique a expliqué que tout matériel installé dans une école doit RESPECTER une procédure d'homologation et être validé par la commune, même en cas d'urgence.

The deepest impression I got from President Trump's latest post is that he is almost being driven to the point of breaking down by the voices at home calling him "weak."
Believe it or not, the person who wants peace the most in the US right now may be Trump himself. Other forces are more concerned with how to reap political benefits from this war.
Trump venting like this is one thing, but I hope he doesn't really lose his head for a moment and go back down the road of restarting the war. His political opponents would be even happier to see that happen.

Everyone has been noticing Starbucks has been putting way more ice into their coffee drinks
So to test it, here’s a Starbucks size Venti
This is how much coffee is actually in the drink once you dump out the coffee and ice, remove the ice and put the coffee back
We are being robbed blind
There is even a social media trend where people pretend to apply for Starbucks by just filling cups with ice now, that’s how widespread this issue is

Un agricultor japonés contrató a un ingeniero para su finca de 100 hectáreas.
No come, no duerme, no cobra. Se llama Codex.
Hiroki Tomiyasu cultiva brócoli en Hokkaido. No heredó tierra, no estudió agricultura, empezó de funcionario. De noche, después de la jornada, construye la infraestructura de su finca con ChatGPT y Codex.
Lo que armó él solo:
→ Control remoto del motor del invernadero desde LINE, con ESP32, driver BTS7960 y Cloudflare Workers
→ Un bot en el chat del equipo que revisa la temperatura de cada invernadero y opera la ventilación
→ Monitoreo satelital con índices NDVI superpuestos en su propio mapa
→ Una base en Airtable que conecta parcelas, tareas, materiales y sensores
→ Diagramas técnicos de sus tableros eléctricos, generados desde una foto
Él lo resume así: es como tener un ingeniero brillante siempre al lado.
Durante años, automatizar una finca significó maquinaria propietaria carísima e ingenieros que solo las grandes operaciones agrícolas podían pagar. Esa gente vendía una barrera, no una solución.
Un tipo que aprendió a manejar tractores solo acaba de cruzar esa barrera con un teléfono.

ok lol today I learned CO detectors cross react with hydrogen gas
so I have been doing molecular hydrogen therapy at home for a while and gradually ramped up the dosage
the fire department's hand held detectors lit up like siren when I turned on the machine
because hydrogen is lighter than air it concentrates at the ceiling where the CO alarm is
anyway even the fire department learned a new lesson today
and I better ventilate the place better
