New Mexico. New America. I don't care. I just want @Hasbro and @wizards_magic to fix the @MTGSecretLair problem, lol

[Desmond M. Watson @desmondmwatson]

What if @elonmusk bought @Hasbro and fixed the @MTGSecretLair problem. Wouldn’t that be grand?

Hey @Xbox @Microsoft: the next-gen Xbox reportedly has a 110 TOPS NPU and up to 48GB GDDR7. Let players opt in to a decentralized AI inference network, paid in Game Pass credit. My napkin math: ~900M tokens/sec, roughly a frontier AI datacenter.

Had an idea for a geopolitical early-warning tool, so I built it

H.U.B.R.I.S. (Hegemony, Unrest, Blocs, Resources, Influence, Sanctions) runs on its own (novel) prediction engine: game theory, historical precedent and live signals from world news, combined to flag where violence is about to flare. It grades its own forecasts every quarter to learn which signals actually work

@MKBHD How seamless is switching between accounts to read messages, etc. meant specifically for you?

[Desmond M. Watson @desmondmwatson]

@MTGSecretLair Now that’s a response. Thank you @Wizards for this resolution! ☺️

[Desmond M. Watson @desmondmwatson]

@sama Can we use the 62.5k credits to try it out 👀

[Desmond M. Watson @desmondmwatson]

@thsottiaux It’d be awesome to have a way to see what it’s doing throughout the day as it’s working on various tasks in real time.

I feel the same way.

The best camera is the one you have with you. They could have at least included the new camera module from the 18 Pro if they’re going to ask me to shell out $2k for a phone.

Instead we’ll see the iPhone “Ultra” launch next year or the year after with the upgraded camera system for $2500 or even $3k. It’s a little ridiculous, honestly.

I just know that @ZacksJerryRig is salivating right now 😂

[Desmond M. Watson @desmondmwatson]

@DrFrankTurek Yes. Because God is sovereign even over AI.

@TonyNaemi @patrickbetdavid @WesleyLHuff Third time's a charm :D
