    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    I would take bumpers and aero parts any day over an oil pan.

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    That time seems really slow compared to others of that era. Not disbelieving, just shocked.

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    There are a lot of production cars available, not all are legal to be licensed for the street.

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    I knew about the bamboo frames. Was just curious sine the conversation was CF and walnut. I do not like wooden steering wheels for sports cars. Runabouts are OK with them.

    Figuring out why AIs get flummoxed by some games

    So would there be a summarized prompt to get it started the right direction? LLMs are a predictive algorithm, would there be a point in the game it could start to figure out what it is doing or would you have to handhold through the Zork series, basically training guides as you posted, and then...

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    And the bolded part is where normal class smart people buy a Miata/BRZ/Type R (or similar) car to have a blast on track days. A car like what is featured here is more performance than your average weekend warrior can take advantage of. Like a Malinois compared to a Lab. The Lab is far more...

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    There was the FXX based on the Enzo that was produced at the factory, Viper ACR (both street legal and not), MC-12 and a bunch of others that are/were factory produced cars. Chevy and Dodge try to out do each other every year with production street class drag cars.

    Figuring out why AIs get flummoxed by some games

    To clarify, could it start and run through the game like a human with no prior training/guides? Not that all humans made it through either. (And I double checked my post to whom I was replying this time! :) )

    A production Ford sets third-fastest time ever at the Nürburgring

    Friend of mine said there is so little room that if he had a passenger along to get the morning paper, the paper had to ride on the roof. Probably only a slight exaggeration.

    Given that it looks a lot like the road legal GT, I am not sure how many heads it would turn at this point.

    Figuring out why AIs get flummoxed by some games

    So, would a prompt based LLM be able to play a prompt based Zork?

    The new perpetual 3D Printing Thread

    I have the Sovol SH01 which works OK for a dual spool dryer. I don't feed from it though, I drop them in to the dry boxes after processing there.

    Wonder if an air fryer would work. Seems to be a ton of those for resale lately.

    Orbital data centers, part 1: There’s no way this is economically viable, right?

    Just because some thought that doesn't mean the scientific consensus was that reusability was impossible. There were many that just wanted to protect their own interests. Some thought the sound barrier was impenetrable, but others knew differently. There will always be naysayers, doesn't mean...
