It's true

It's truen't.

Today's problem is the Liar's Paradox.

"Everything I say is a lie."

You know the deal.

That's the last of the the problems from the first section. Might start looking at some ethical problems tomorrow.

FH5, Series 31, Preview

No MC20, no 911 GT3 RS. Yes, it’s European Automotive Disappointment. I think I typed “update”, but my fingers slipped. Old person problems. The series rewards are the Ferrari 575 M and 2021 Audi RS6. Do I ever drive these? No. Am I excited for their reappearance? No. Week 1 we get dished up the Valkyrie AMR Pro in short order, which is good, but can we have some proper motorsport tracks to race this on? Probably best in the Hot Wheels expansion where the power can be put to good use. I don’t mind the reappearance of the Megane RS 250. Probably the most practical addition of the week is the Lancia Fulvia, which should’ve been copied and pasted with all the rest of the Lancias. I’m hoping that it’ll be as good as it is in Horizon 4. Week 2 gives us the VW ID.4. O Dullness, thou purveyor of blandness, how thy servants furnish the land with their anodyne blessings . But the ATS GT is a welcome return. Don’t care about the Citroen DS23. I think I drove it once in FH4 after we got it in tha...

The Man Machine

Tighten the nuts. Dr Descartes is now putting forward arguments about how to distinguish people from mere mechanoids. One is that they'd be incapable of using language creatively (i.e., language use that goes beyond what could merely be learnt), even although they might be able to give a verbal response to various stimuli. ("Ouch! You should not poke my diodes like that." "Check out the software on her.") The other is that a machine wouldn't have our range of capabilities, although there might be one thing at which it excels. Unless our brains are badly miswired, humans can produce novel utterances, whereas creatures which can "speak" merely mimic human speech, but are incapable of producing new strings of words. People who are born deaf and dumb still manage to communicate creatively. The question is whether the gulf between humans and animals is that great. Animals have ways of communicating and they aren't exactly wholly specialised in their...

FH6, Series 3, Week 3

Meanwhile, somewhere in Hokubu… This damned treasure must be somewhere. I should’ve paid more attention to the screenshot on Facebook that gave its location. I’ll drive around a bit… And round and round… I’m worse at navigation than Odysseus. I eventually find the spot in north central Hokubu, not too far north of the Flower Run ST . Some arse is half hiding the treasure chest with his car. I expected to have to do a seasonal to get the Lamborghini Huracán for the weekly. Instead I had to do the spending-my-money. I randomly drove about and eventually, randomly got a great skill chain. Did my two laps of Soni and took a picture. Then it was off to the castle for a photo. Once again I resorted to the 458 Speciale for Play Time . I was all right round Narai-Juku , but have probably only done the Venus Sprint once, hence I did it badly. The conditions weren’t exactly ideal for racing in S1-class cars. I drove the 2005 MX-5 for Spyder Sense . Again, it was unfamiliar courses in the dark ...
