I used Fable 5 to port Command & Conquer: Generals Zero Hour to the iPhone and iPad!

This is the actual 2003 engine compiled for ARM64 natively, no emulator.

Campaign, skirmish, Generals Challenge all work with touch controls built for an RTS.

Open sourcing it all below!

As a result of a US government directive, we are suspending access to Claude Fable 5 for all users. You can continue to use all other Claude models.

Here’s what this means for you:

Across Claude products, new sessions will run on your selected default model or Opus 4.8, and existing Fable 5 sessions will end with an error.

On the Claude Platform, requests to Fable 5 will also return an error. Please update your integrations to other Claude models.

We know this is a disruption to your workflows; we appreciate your patience and support.

[Imtiaz Mahmood @ImtiazMadmood]

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly."

The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal.

When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience."

Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable.

When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates.

I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped.

The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault."

I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology."

Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident.

Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize."

I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time."

They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again."

I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes.

If you bought a Whoop, I feel sorry for you.

Google’s Fitbit Air just made it look silly

- $100 one time payment vs Whoop’s $199–$359/year forever

- Free tier actually works HR, sleep, SpO2, HRV, recovery, no paywall

- Optional $10/mo for Gemini Health Coach (vs Whoop where the sub is mandatory)

- Gemini analyzes meal photos, not just biometrics. Whoop can’t touch that

- Conversational health AI ask questions like why was I tired Tuesday?and get a real answer

- Open data platform Apple Watch, Garmin, third-party data all flow into Google Health

- 7-day battery, 5-min quick charge = full day

-Whoop just got a $10B valuation… and Google undercut them by 50% on day one

aave: yo arbitrum, send back the $71m you get from the hacker, we need it

arbitrum: chill, we’re voting on it, you’ll have it in a few days. defi united, remember?

aave: bet. love that for us

(suddenly, american lawyers show up)
plaintiffs: stop right there. that $71m is ours now

aave: excuse me??

plaintiffs: we have old judgments against north korea. the hacker was lazarus group. lazarus is north korea. therefore the funds belong to north korea. therefore we seize them

aave: wait. do you have proof it was north korea?

plaintiffs: yeah, tweets

aave: …tweets

plaintiffs: and a news article

aave: but even if it was them, holding stolen funds for 5 minutes doesn’t make you the owner??

plaintiffs: yes it does

aave: so if i smash a tiffany’s window, grab a diamond, and a bystander grabs it back from me, your creditor friends can seize the diamond?

plaintiffs: correct

arbitrum: uhh… what are we supposed to do here

plaintiffs: don’t move. everything’s frozen

aave: but the funds belong to my innocent users??

plaintiffs: not our problem

aave: if i lose this, nobody will ever stop a hacker again. why would they? the reward becomes a legal war with the thief’s creditors

plaintiffs: not our problem

aave: and sanctioned states will have an incentive to hack more, since stolen funds can pay off their old debts

plaintiffs: still not our problem

aave: (turns to the judge) your honor, either vacate this now, or make them post a $300m bond. we have days before the entire defi ecosystem cascades

judge: (tbd)

@WHOOP just filed a lawsuit against us.

A $10B company with 800+ employees is scared of us, a 20-person team making health tracking accessible to all.

Rather than focusing on product and innovation, Whoop has decided to use its newly raised capital on lawfare.

In this video, I share our side of the story, explain why their claims are baseless, and why we believe fighting back is the right thing to do.

“We have taken zero illegal Muslim immigrants. That’s why Poland is so safe. That’s why Poland hasn’t had even one terrorist attack.

We have 2 million peaceful Ukrainians, but we will not take a single Muslim. It is what our people want.”

The British journalist is left stunned.

Who signed off on a flashy limited edition hardware wallet as a good idea after the number of targeted home invasion / robbery cases continues to become more frequent?

Just give the community Ledger black out edition that’s discreet with zero logo so it blends in with other items you own.

What Airdrop Projects actually taught us:

· ​Monad = Taught us that the best "Community Contribution" is using a hot girl PFP to farm engagement
· EigenLayer = Taught us that "Points" are infinite, but our liquidity is locked forever
· Jupiter = Taught us that being a degenerate trader pays better than being a node runner
· LayerZero = Taught us to snitch on our neighbors for a $10 bounty
· ZkSync = Taught us that "Randomization" is their favorite eligibility criteria
· Starknet = Taught us to check our wallet balance before the snapshot (0.005 ETH rule)
· Linea = Taught us that we need a Passport, Face Scan, and DNA test to claim tokens
· Blast = Taught us that a Ponzi scheme with a nice dashboard is called "Innovation"
· Hyperliquid = Taught us to lose $5,000 in trading fees to earn 50 points
· Sui = Taught us that "Community Access" actually means "Public Sale" (No Airdrop)
· Manta = Taught us that "New Paradigm" just means "Worthless NFTs"
· Polyhedra = Taught us to pay $15 gas to bridge a $0.01 NFT
· Worldcoin = Taught us that our Retina data is worth exactly $60
· Scroll = Taught us that "Marks" are harder to earn than real money
· Zora = Taught us to mint 500 useless JPGs just to look "active"
· Debank = Taught us that Social Credit Scores are real and they cost money
· Grass = Taught us to sell our IP address for the price of a coffee
· Magic Eden = Taught us that "Diamonds" are forever... waiting for TGE
· Taiko = Taught us that Galxe quests are a full time job with 0 salary
· Orderly = Taught us that "Merits" are just another word for "Exit Liquidity"

Did I miss any other lessons ?

⚠️ NEWS

SanDisk has announced the world's smallest 1TB Flash Drive – The Extreme Fit USB-C!

• Weighs just 3 grams 😱
• Maximum transfer speed of 400 MB/s
• Costs $109.99 (Approx ₹9,745 in India)

It's absolutely incredible how SanDisk was able to make this possible. Hopefully they'll launch it soon in India as well!

@_yesbut_ There is no YouTube app in Apple CarPlay, bro..

[DeFiyst @DeFiyst]

So to be clear the @stable phase 2 pre-deposit campaign currently has:

-API key exposed on @hourglasshq's frontend, so the ToS signature required before sale is not working
-Depositing via Etherscan makes you ineligible, yet you can't go via frontend without signature so people defaulted to Etherscan and some accidentally deposited directly into contract = $2.34m in losses thus far (h/t @yieldsandmore)
-People depositing >$100k/wallet despite supposed maximum to allow retail in
-Vault operators can loan proceeds to "institutional" counterparties (?)

This is all after the fiasco of phase 1 being instantly filled by insiders, with a different receipt token (and presumably diluting this pre-deposit phase, assuming calculated on a pro-rata basis).

Urging caution.

Aave is talking about us again. Why? Aave and Gauntlet are now competing more fiercely than ever for Earn programs. Here are internal comments on Stani's post from yesterday

[CBB @Cbb0fe]

Stable phase 1 & 2 were executed so poorly it genuinely makes me wonder if these guys can even deploy a blockchain 😭

[Lucky Raptor @RaptorLucky]

@Tiza4ThePeople @hourglasshq same, signed >1000 times. 1 hour. hahaha

[Lucky Raptor @RaptorLucky]

@hourglasshq still can't accept ToS , 46 minutes ... guys wtf?

[Lucky Raptor @RaptorLucky]

@0xShinuqi @stable @hourglasshq not eligible without ToS, it's like with smart contract
