SpaceX $SPCX falls to $126 after-hours after a failed Starship launch.

I LOVE POWER PLANT AND BRIDGE DAY!!! 😎🇺🇸💥💥💥

The calm before the storm.

President Trump is already locked in!

If you’re a terrorist organization, you might want to rethink your career choices.

Marco Rubio isn’t bluffing!

Typically there's a spike in volatility at the end of July.

Seems unusual timing for Netanyahu to visit the White House this weekend and leaving on Tuesday, the day before VIXpiration doesn't it?

Here's $VIX seasonality based on 2024 and 2025.

"Years of hard times"

If you were Trump and knew the market was going to crash, would you try to postpone it or would you accelerate it?

I’d want to be in control of when it crashes and make sure I’m not taking the blame for it. So postpone until the govt and elites are ready and the scapegoat is in place…Iran.

The Japanese Nikkei falls 2.6% in Friday's trading

South Korea's KOSPI is closed for a holiday July 17, sparking concerns of a possible sharp selloff when trading resumes on Monday July 20th

The biggest attack will be carried out on Iran.

Iran will be completely destroyed.

Never be too fucked up about anything. everything will always play out how it’s supposed to. some things have to fall apart so better things can come together. some people have to leave so you can finally become who you're meant to be. do your part, keep moving, and let life unfold. most of the things you lose sleep over today won't even matter a year from now.

In 5 seconds, you can install this Taste Skill that gives Fable 5 amazing website design capabilities.

It's a completely open-source framework that even works in Codex, Cursor & more.

Install it:

TERMINAL COMMAND

" npx skills add github.com/Leonxlnx/taste-skill --skill "design-taste-frontend "

What changes after install:

→ The agent reads your brief first and infers the right design direction before touching any code

→ Dark mode built in by default with proper contrast and hierarchy in both themes

The anti-slop ban list it enforces:
→ No AI-purple gradients or mesh blob backgrounds
→ No three-equal-card feature rows
→ No fake product UI built from styled divs
→ No decorative scroll cues or status dots
→ No hand-rolled SVG illustrations as defaults
→ No section-numbering eyebrows like "00 / INDEX" or "06 · how it works"

Pick the skill that fits your project:

→ design-taste-frontend: the default, reads the brief and infers direction
→ soft-skill: calm, polished, more whitespace, spring-style motion
→ minimalist-skill: Notion/Linear aesthetic, restrained and tight
→ brutalist-skill: Swiss typography, raw structure, harder contrast
→ redesign-skill: audit-first for existing projects that need a proper overhaul

I canceled three AI subscriptions this month.

Here's the $6/month Hermes setup that replaced all of them:

What I was paying before:

→ Claude Pro: $20/month
→ ChatGPT Plus: $20/month
→ Perplexity Pro: $20/month

Total: $60/month. Usage caps on all three. Memory wiped every session on two of them.

What I run now:

→ Hetzner CX22 VPS: $4/month
→ DeepSeek V4 Flash via OpenRouter: ~$2/month at normal usage
→ Hermes Agent: free, open source, MIT license

Total: $6/month. No caps. No resets. Gets smarter every day.

How to set it up:

Step 1. Spin up a VPS
Go to hetzner.com, create a CX22 instance running Ubuntu 24. Takes 2 minutes.

Step 2. Install Hermes

SSH into your server and run:

curl -fsSL hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/install.sh | bash

Step 3. Connect OpenRouter

Sign up at openrouter.ai, grab your API key, and set DeepSeek V4 Flash as your default model at $0.14 per million input tokens.

Switch to Claude or GPT-5.6 only when the task genuinely needs frontier intelligence.

Step 4. Enable the learning loop

Toggle on persistent memory and skill generation inside Hermes settings.
Every complex task now creates a reusable skill file automatically.

After 30 days the agent is completing similar tasks 40% faster, which means 40% fewer tokens burned.

Costs go down the longer you run it. The opposite of every subscription you've ever had.

Step 5. Connect your tools

Link Telegram, Discord, Slack, or WhatsApp so you can prompt your agent from anywhere, not just your desktop.

(Keep in mind that connecting these results in more token usage)

Now you have a 24/7 AI assistant that:

→ Never forgets you
→ Runs while you sleep
→ Gets cheaper over time
→ Costs less than a Netflix subscription

🚨 Putin Has CONFIRMED A New Payment Infrastructure With BRICS Using Blockchain Technology

At the International Economic Forum, Putin dropped this absolute BOMBSHELL:

“Any country can at any moment be deprived of access to its legitimate assets, which are placed in dollars or euros, as well as to Western financial payment infrastructure.”

Russia is now FULL SPEED AHEAD on BRICS blockchain adoption while Putin (echoing their Foreign Minister) just admitted the quiet part out loud:

“We were NEVER against the U.S. trade or dollar… but sanctions & SWIFT system got weaponized like a financial nuke against ANYONE they don’t like.”

Translation?

They still want to trade with America… BUT only through a neutral, decentralized currency that NO ONE can freeze, sanction, or control.

Interestingly, India is leading the BRICS Pay initiative where they have confirmed pilots with Ripple for cross-border payments
