Hi everybody — I recently received a kidney transplant from a generous living donor, and I'm already feeling better. Back to normal in a few months, so get ready for more music and Daryl's House shows. You all take care! Love, D
The young kid who got Kyle Branch’s HR ball in the championship gave it back to the family and the person who got Kolby’s from the semifinals contacted Rusty Branch to give it to him. 🥹
So both Branch boys’ final at-bats of year were homers and the family has both baseballs.
@SVG__Collection It's mind-blowing to remember Ibrahim Ferrer was retired and shining shoes in Havana when they called him to the studio. He showed up in his work clothes, recorded his vocals in a single take, and changed music history at 70 years old. Pure magic. 🇨🇺🔊🎙️
Many of the musicians featured on “Buena Vista Social Club” were in their 70s, 80s, and even 90s at the time of recording.
Their voices and playing embody decades of Havana’s musical history, and Ry Cooder captured it all in just six days of live, largely improvised sessions.
Stop writing your passwords on paper.
Stop saving passwords in your notes app.
Stop panicking when you log in on a new phone.
Google already built tools to help you stop doing that.
Most people just don’t use them.
Here is how Google helps you save, protect, and use your passwords safely. 👇
There is an old laptop in your closet.
Gathering dust. Dead battery. Slow processor. You keep it because you feel guilty throwing it away.
That laptop can replace every cloud subscription you pay for.
- Netflix
- Google
- Dropbox
- 1Password
That is $42 a month. $504 a year. To rent things you used to own.
The old laptop in your closet could do all of it.
Now meet CasaOS.
A free and open source system that turns any old laptop, Raspberry Pi, or mini PC into your own personal cloud.
You run one command. In 30 minutes, the laptop becomes a server. You open it from your phone, your TV, your work computer, anywhere in the world.
Then you pick the apps you want from a built-in store. One click each.
- Jellyfin to replace Netflix. Stream every movie and show you own.
- Immich to replace Google Photos. Faces and search included.
- Nextcloud to replace Dropbox. Sync every file across every device.
- Vaultwarden to replace 1Password. All your passwords, your keys.
- Syncthing to keep files in sync across every device, no cloud.
- Home Assistant to control every smart device in your home.
- AdGuard to block ads on every device on your wifi.
Setting up a home server the old way took an entire weekend. Install Linux. Learn Docker. Write config files. Set up storage. Fix errors. Look up every app one by one.
CasaOS does all of that for you. No code. No config files. No Linux skills. You see icons on a screen. You click them.
34,116 stars on GitHub. Apache 2.0. Free forever.
Built by a small team starting September 2021. Runs on Raspberry Pi, Intel NUC, old laptops, and most home servers. Over 100,000 Docker apps can be installed.
A new Raspberry Pi costs $50. The old laptop in your closet costs $0. It already works. It is already in your house.
Netflix charges every month. CasaOS doesn't.
Google charges every month. CasaOS doesn't.
Dropbox charges every month. CasaOS doesn't.
1Password charges every month. CasaOS doesn't.
Here is the wild part.
The laptop you forgot about is more powerful than the web server that ran most websites in 2008.
It is sitting in a drawer. It costs you nothing. It already works.
One command. Thirty minutes. Five hundred dollars a year back in your pocket.
Your files. Your photos. Your movies. Your home.
Your closet just became a data center.
🚨 A Pen-Sized Invention That Could Change Clean Water Forever!
Two 17-year-old students from Texas created a tiny device that uses sound waves to remove up to 94% of microplastics from water—without chemicals or filters.
The idea came after they learned that many water treatment systems do not specifically remove microplastics. With studies suggesting people may consume a credit card's worth of plastic every week, their breakthrough could help protect millions.
Could the future of clean water be in the hands of two teenagers?

Happy Father's Day
The Lessons I Learned from My Dad
I am not the man my father is.
I am trying. Some days closer. Some days farther.
He never sat me down and explained these lessons. He lived them. I’m still learning them.
Show up.
The kitchen table. The hospital room. The funeral. The picket line. The call from the son who won’t answer.
Show up.
Most days that’s the whole job.
My whole life I watched him do it. Not for cameras. Not for headlines. Not because there was something in it for him. He showed up because someone needed him.
I learned that grief doesn’t make you special.
My father buried a wife and daughter. He buried a son. Yet he never treated grief as a claim on other people’s sympathy. Instead, it made him notice theirs.
A mother who lost a child. A father sitting beside a hospital bed. A kid scared about what comes next. A son who lost his mother, his sister, his brother.
He always noticed.
I learned that power is not the point.
The people who chase power eventually confuse the office with themselves.
My father never did.
Whether he was a county councilman, a senator, vice president, or president, he was the same man.
The title changed.
He didn’t.
I learned that family comes first.
The train from Wilmington wasn’t symbolism.
It was every night.
He read to us. Showed up to games. Sat through hospital rooms. Waited up for children who were lost.
And when the day came that the country and the family could not both have him at full strength, he chose family. He relinquished the last chapter of how he wanted to be remembered. And he never complained about it.
Most of all, I learned that love is not soft.
Love is discipline.
Love is showing up at one in the morning when nobody is watching.
Love is answering the phone.
Love is staying.
Love is getting back up after life knocks you down and doing it all again tomorrow.
That love saved my life.
I’ve failed at many of these lessons, sometimes in very public ways.
He loved me anyway.
That’s the last lesson.
I am not trying to become my father.
I am trying to carry what he gave me.
And if I can do that, even imperfectly, that will be enough.
Happy Father’s Day, Dad. I love you.
Happy Birthday, West Virginia!
