Get Smartphone Alerts When Your Snail Mail Arrives?!

Who said snail mail can’t be high-tech? If you’re tired of playing the waiting game with your mailbox or wondering if today is *finally* the day the Magnolia Journal will grace your mailbox (so you can hand-deliver it to your significant other and score those extra brownie points (let's face it) you so desperately need), then you’re going to love this nifty little trick! It all started a few months ago as I was looking for a fun project to do around our new home, when I noticed that I still had a couple of unopened Blink Outdoor Smart Cameras sitting in the cabinet in our laundry room. I realized just how sad it was that these puppies still didn't have a home -  I had purchased them what felt like ages ago, before we had even moved and never […]

DeepSeek’s Meteoric Rise and The International War For AI Supremacy

TL;DR DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup founded in 2023 by Liang Wenfeng, has rapidly ascended in the tech world with its cost-effective and efficient AI models helping it surge past ChatGPT in Jan 2025 to become the #1 downloaded free app in Apple's App Store. Supposedly developed with a meager budget of just $6 million, DeepSeek's R1 model rivals industry giants like OpenAI's ChatGPT, which had significantly higher development costs (we are guessing in the hundreds of millions or billions of dollars range). However, DeepSeek is now under scrutiny for allegedly using OpenAI's technology without permission, raising concerns about intellectual property theft and national security. The U.S. Navy has restricted its personnel from using DeepSeek's app due to security fears, and investigations are ongoing. DeepSeek's Meteoric Rise In the ever-evolving tech landscape, few stories have been as electrifying as DeepSeek's. […]

Gratitude – A Sacred Medicine For Our Souls

💡 Helion Energy’s Bold Bet: Fusion Power by 2028?

🔎 TL;DR A private fusion startup, Helion Energy, is taking a moonshot at delivering working fusion power by 2028. With backing from tech moguls like Sam Altman and Peter Thiel, and a deal to power Microsoft with fusion energy, Helion is promising what many thought was decades away. But can they really crack the code on limitless clean energy? ✨ The Future is Fusion: Helion's Wild Timeline Imagine a world where energy is limitless, clean, and practically free.

The WHOLE Story of The Friends Thanksgiving Trifle Disaster Finally Comes Out!

Ah, Thanksgiving on Friends—a time for turkey, awkward confessions, and, of course, the infamous meat-custard trifle. If you’ve ever wondered what culinary horror looks like, look no further than Season 6, Episode 9: The One Where Ross Got High. In this glorious instant classic of an episode, Rachel mistakenly combines an English Trifle custard desert recipe with a Shepherd’s (meat) Pie recipe, thanks to some good old-fashioned recipe page sticking (Chandler!). The result? A dessert only Joey Tribbiani could love. Ross Pretends to Love It (and Fails Miserably) This moment of gastronomic disaster led to one of the most hysterical scenes in Friends history, where Ross (David Schwimmer) attempts to keep a straight face while choking down what is supposed to be layers of jam, custard, beef, peas, and onions. Watch the hilarious original scene unfold here: The Behind-the-Scenes Gross-Out […]

Should You Tip Walmart Delivery Drivers? A Guide to Grocery Delivery Orders vs. Walmart.com Shipping Orders

In the ever-evolving landscape of delivery services, tipping has become a topic of lively debate, especially when it comes to Walmart deliveries. The consensus? Tipping is encouraged for grocery deliveries due to the extra effort involved, but it's generally considered acceptable to forgo tipping for Walmart.com (non-grocery) orders where you select shipping (not delivery) at checkout. Grocery Deliveries: A Little Extra Goes a Long Way When you order groceries from your local Walmart store, drivers often handle a large quantity of items that could potentially be heavy and sometimes fragile and they have to fill up at least a decent part of their personal vehicle with your grocery items. This requires careful handling, sometimes a decent drive, and often significant physical effort depending on where they are leaving them for you. Obviously the size of your grocery order (and perhaps […]
