Thompson Falls, Blaeberry, BC
Easy to moderate
7 mi out and back or short walk to falls only
1,496 ft elevation gain
Hiked 6/1/25
Located in the Thompson Falls recreation area not too far from Golden BC this is a great waterfall with an ok trail that could be shortened to maybe half a mile or so of a mild slope. Falls were way overfull at time of hike, but appear to be a worthwhile stop, perhaps while camping in the area.
Another view of Thompson falls from a little further away, which better shows the shelf under the rushing river.
The uppermost section of falls along the trail, looks like it would have been a small cascade on the far side with a rapid on the near. Currently very blown out, the downed trees on the farside are stuck.
A jumble of fallen trees suspended in the forest. (Marge voice: I just think they're neat!)

Israel's Knesset votes to impeach Palestinian lawmaker Ayman Odeh
Israel's Knesset House Committee voted to advance the impeachment of prominent lawmaker Ayman Odeh, a Palestinian citizen of Israel, on Monday, over comments he made earlier this year, which were perceived as being pro-Palestinian and against the war in Gaza.Lawmakers from both the ruling coalition and opposition Yesh Atid and National Unity parties voted 14-2 in favour of impeachment, while two Knesset members from the Palestinian Ra'am and Ta'al parties opposed the move.
Odeh had earned the scorn of several Israeli lawmakers earlier this year when he welcomed a long-awaited ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.
"I am happy about the release of the hostages and prisoners. From here, both peoples must be freed from the yoke of the occupation. We were all born free," Odeh wrote on 19 January after Hamas released three Israeli women after 471 days in captivity.

US Lifts Sanctions, Clearing Path for Russia’s Nuclear Expansion in Hungary
Hungarian Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó announced that the United States has lifted sanctions that previously restricted the construction of the Russian-built Paks II nuclear power plant in Hungary.
According to Szijjártó, the sanctions were originally introduced under the administration of former US President Joe Biden and had complicated Hungary’s long-term energy plans.
In a statement published on June 29, Szijjártó credited current US President Donald Trump for reversing the measures, calling the decision a step toward ensuring Hungary’s future energy security.
“In light of the fact that there is now a president in Washington who considers Hungary a friend, the American government has lifted sanctions related to investments in the Paks nuclear power plant,” Szijjártó said.

Google Drive alternative?
Hello! How are folks self-hosting online storage, similar to Google Drive?
Some options I've found:
- filebrowser.org/ (maintenance-only mode)
- seafile.com/en/home/ (weird disk layout scares me)
- tinyfilemanager.github.io/ (i like simple!)
- github.com/mickael-kerjean/fil…
A bunch more: github.com/awesome-selfhosted/…
I mainly just need basic file management features. I don't plan to share files outside of my tailscale VPN. I do need to support multiple users though.
I'm not considering Nextcloud because that seems too big. I'm also not considering syncthing for this project because I don't want copies on multiple devices.
I'm currently just using ssh+nautilus and that's worked great for just me, but something similar to Google Drive would be easier to onboard my family.

Microsoft Says Its New AI Diagnosed Patients 4 Times More Accurately Than Human Doctors
The Microsoft AI team shares research that demonstrates how AI can sequentially investigate and solve medicine’s most complex diagnostic challenges—cases that expert physicians struggle to answer.Benchmarked against real-world case records published each week in the New England Journal of Medicine, we show that the Microsoft AI Diagnostic Orchestrator (MAI-DxO) correctly diagnoses up to 85% of NEJM case proceedings, a rate more than four times higher than a group of experienced physicians. MAI-DxO also gets to the correct diagnosis more cost-effectively than physicians.

What do you mean “is there proof”.
MBFC isnt some professional shit. It’s some guys opinions about websites.
It’ll call something like the economist which has endorsed the UK conservative party in the past decade “center left” for not being straight up facist.
It’s not a very high quality thing.
