The city-owned Hunt Branch Library has recently experienced extensive vandalism in the form of broken windows and graffiti. Gifted to the City of Fullerton by industrialist and art collector Norton Simon, who once displayed Rodins, Rembrandts, and Picassos in or around the building, the Hunt served as a branch of the Fullerton Public Library from 1962 to 2013, when the Fullerton City Council chose to defund it and lease it to a neighboring property owner. At their June 8 meeting, the Planning Commission voted to install additional fencing around the Hunt Library area to protect against vandalism. Planning Commission Chair Doug Cox shared recent photos he’d taken of the Hunt Branch Library showing many smashed windows, graffiti, and other vandalism.

Google and Chevron are part of a $250 million funding raise announced Tuesday for TAE Technologies, a nuclear fusion startup with an unconventional strategy that has now raised a total of $1.2 billion. "TAE — and fusion technology as a whole — has the potential to be a scalable source of no-carbon energy generation and a key enabler of grid stability as renewables become a greater portion of the energy mix," said Jim Gable, president of Chevron Technology Ventures, the energy company's corporate venture capital arm, in a statement announcing Tuesday's funding round. TAE was founded in 1998 and aims to have a commercial scale fusion reactor delivering energy to the grid in the early 2030s. Also on Tuesday, TAE announced a technical milestone: It achieved temperatures greater than 75 million degrees Celsius with its current fusion reactor machine, nicknamed Norman, which is located in Foothill Ranch, Calif., where the company is headquartered.

Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Eric Balchunas told Decrypt that the Federal Reserve would be less likely to step in and lower interest rates—like it has done in the past—to help if things got messy. Julio Moreno, a macro on-chain senior analyst at CryptoQuant, an analytics firm, was slightly less pessimistic, telling Decrypt in an interview that Bitcoin could drop to around $16,000. The Fed likely will remain hawkish throughout 2022, pushing asset prices even lower, trader and analyst Alex Kruger told Decrypt. Lucas Outumuro, head of research at IntoTheBlock, told Decrypt that although Bitcoin and Ethereum work differently to traditional tech companies, they are performing like said tech stocks “likely due to there being an intersection between the types of investors holding these assets.”

The feature, which has already been made available on iOS, Android, game consoles, desktop computers, and select smart TVs, lets you listen to music on Spotify while seeing a stream of lyrics that progresses with the song. While Spotify hasn’t formally announced the feature’s launch, a number of users — including the folks over at 9to5Google — report spotting real-time lyrics on their Nest Hub devices. Although the real-time lyrics are provided by music data company Musixmatch, Spotify previously partnered with Genius for its “Behind the Lyrics” feature, which TechCrunch reports has since been discontinued in favor of real-time lyrics. The Amazon Echo Show and Meta Portal already have a similar karaoke-friendly feature that lets you display album art and real-time song lyrics through Amazon Music.

Hours before one of the Angels pitchers complained that he had hit a batter in the head because the baseballs were too slick, Nevin watched his own son, Baltimore Orioles third baseman Tyler Nevin, get hit by pitches twice. Angels right-handers Michael Lorenzen and Ryan Tepera had issues with the baseballs Thursday and Friday in Seattle. Still, Major League Baseball has acknowledged the need to make the baseballs more tacky so pitchers don’t need to apply any foreign substances, which can create a competitive advantage by increasing spin. Walsh was feeling well enough Saturday morning that Nevin’s plan was for him to play in both games of the doubleheader.
