@khanadan99 @grok With this is mind - what do you say about X’s decision to not use your AI-skil in beforehand @grok

@khanadan99 @grok how many read only the original post contra comments? @grok

Buildings in Tel Aviv are getting BLASTED. About 200 israeli casualties tonight alone.۔۔۔۔

@chessclubICC @aryan_tari @cheparinov I would suggest Rilton Cup in Stockholm 27th of December-5th of Januay

With a draw in the last round of the Szmetan-Giardelli tournament against the reigning Argentine champion, Diego Flores,@FaustiOroscored his second GM norm. 🥳 The tournament was won by @Aryan_Tari and Ivan @Cheparinov, with 6/9.🏆

GM Daniel Naroditsky - a great master and a kind-hearted, gentle person were taken from us far too soon. 😔 schack.se/nyhet/internat…

@aryan_tari Norwegian chess federation could recieve 5 million Euros a few years ago but the congress voted ”no” to co-operate with a gambling company. I can see the point to stay away from that industry. But still, what if…

Yesterday the European Team Championship started in Georgia, but sadly without team Norway. It’s heartbreaking that a nation with the world’s best player for 15 years can’t find the budget to send its top players to compete

@QudsNen Cool. It says ”Växjö's strongest volunteer” on her t-shirt. Maybe from the competition Sweden's Strongest Man in the city Växjö 2022.

Swedish political activist Greta Thunberg calls on the Tunisian people to mobilize and join the global flotilla to continue the journey to Gaza, break the Israeli blockade, and deliver humanitarian aid, urging people to keep fighting for Gaza.

@SusanPolgar @chessdom Shirov!

@chessdom Which player did it? 🤣

A fire has broken out at the Hyatt Regency hotel in Chennai, the venue of the Quantbox Chennai Grand Masters 2025. All players are safe, but had to be relocated to another hotel.

@MartinssonSvall Matchen förlorades när Sverige släppte in två (!) mål i slutminuterna. Tycker att fokuset bör ligga på hur Sverige totalt misslyckades att stänga matchen.

Extremt provocerande att vi skickar fram en målvakt. Det är omöjligt att försvara på den här nivån enligt mig.

@symaskinenIV @13Tolv De borde ändra rökfri till lustgasfri

@13Tolv Och alltid ”är lugn, skötsam och rökfri”. Haha vem försöker dem lura 🤣

Åh nu börjar den fina tiden när 20-23-åringar söker lägenhet i Stockholm. Önskemålen är alltid ”helst innerstan” och ”maxhyra 7500kr”

@anderslindberg Teodorescu Måwe som säger att hon blev attackerad kommer att göra precis allt för att filmen blir offentlig. Eller NOT! :)

Ord verkar ju stå mot ord. Så jag hoppas verkligen att inte Europaparlamentet lägger några hinder i vägen mot att polisen utreder, eller mot medias insyn. Filmen behöver ju lämnas ut omgående. Teodorescu Måwes egna ord: Jag blev attackerad aftonbladet.se/a/Jb8g2j

@VictorE47697310 @YourAnonCentral AfD got only 152 seats. CDU/CSU 208. Big difference.

MAGA having a meltdown about Romania is the cherry on top

Sweden’s televoters gave 12 p to Israel. #ESC2025

@NancyPeekaboo @KatKanada_TM Snowflake.

@KatKanada_TM All you US podcasters, understand that what just happened here in Canada is what happened in the States in 2020.. Stop calling us idiots. It was a corrupt election.. the CHEAT was real. We didn't want Libs any more than you guys did in 2020. No derogatory name calling plz.

No it isn't.

@OG_DrC Well, dunno if ordinary people have the money to buy a private helicopter tour in NY.

How come all these plane and helicopter crashes involve high-level CEOs, and not just ordinary people What are the odds? 7/10

@a_gustavsson Originalidén till tom sida och liten rubrik i Trixie gjordes av Bengt Bengtzon i Expressen under Albertville-OS i februari 1992. Fortfarande ett starkt koncept att använda i tidningsmakeri, 33 år senare.

Så här ser Dagens ETC ut imorgon. Ingenting. Det är vad som finns kvar när journalistiken försvinner.

@BirnBorger @fredrikaukland Men hon fick sitt drömföre på 10 km

@fredrikaukland hei. Hørte at johaug ikke fikk sitt favorittføre. Tenker med det at det var salta løyper. Hvorfor blir ikke løypene gjort til favør de norske. I andre idretter så gjør hjemmenasjonen alt for sine egne .. hilsen Biørn.
