Magnus Carlsen 🇳🇴 knocked all pieces down and set the clock BEFORE rearranging them 🤯🤯🤯 a penalty coming for Carlsen, as he hit the clock afraid of losing on time

Leko, "I think the pieces are slippery, the same happened to Grischuk"

@grexon1717 @VictorOnX Not unless you are under it!

@bearcat_pilot @elonmusk no system ever puts *random* numbers into date fields. you either leave it blank or put some fixed value like all zeroes or the like. random numbers would be plain silly.

@charliegreenman @FIDE_chess That was in Rapid and Magnus did pull out but decided to play in Blitz. (Also FIDE backed down on the jeans issue)

I'm goin' to get me some "zero root of trust security". (Yes, just heard this on a talk)

@elonmusk Why do you keep posting this when it is wrong? I have voted in dozens of elections in Australia in the last 42 years and never required to show ID

You can see them lined up just past the control tower. (My wife Sharon took this video)

Just landed at #SYD airport. Dozens of fire trucks and ambulances along the runway waiting for something. Our #LATAM LA801 flight landed without incident, but saw those vehicles nice on

@nathstar @elonmusk Same here in Australia. The list is rubbish @elonmusk

[Martin Visser @martyvis]

@elonmusk I think you need to get your @X crowd to do a better job on the closed captions. It made a lot of mistakes in the transcription.

Hey @TomSaundersABC I reckon you should be reminding people about the Solar Eclipse over NSW in exactly 4 years time! https://t.co/0SyGE68Ds7

@IvanPav_AUS @MarcusHouse I'm pretty sure you don't see FTS installed on any US vehicles when all they are doing is static fire. It literally isn't meant to be going anywhere other than the test stand.

[Martin Visser @martyvis]

@howlerdude @MarcusHouse It looks like it had plenty of fuel when it "landed".

@eevblog The Starship stack is very quickly iterating, leap frogging it's progress on every test. By year end they should have several orbital missions under their belt and even a landing. Nothing else out there is close to what SpaceX is doing.

@APVanDevender @seanpk @apq7b Wrong. It's from a speech made by Admiral Hyman Rickover that in part says - "Man has a large capacity for effort. But it is so much greater than we think it is, that few ever reach this capacity".

This AI stuff is clearly just a fad and isn't going to be useful ...
