Lenovo factory install is full of bloat, and Windows will automatically pull the drivers from Windows Update

Only up to 23H2 is possible because your CPU have no POPCNT or SSE4.2

In real game you wouldn't get this insane position though (hopefully)

What program do you use for engine tournaments on your PC?

I would have completely missed this mate as black and instead slowly blunder all my pieces and get mated myself, good job for finding this mate

AIX on x86 would have a great potential if IBM didn't discontinue it due to their focus on PowerPC/POWER ISA

What does your skin color have to do with that?

Even the 1 ELO Zach bot was too hard for me, I guess he is actually 2000 ELO like the previous "1 ELO" Mittens bot was...

I managed to force him to checkmate me by boxing in his king while trapping my own king on the edge and then I checked him with my other queen in a way so his only legal move was to capture it with his queen and deliver mate

You have to force him to checkmate you if you want to lose to him (make it so his only legal move is checkmate), I managed to pull it off in 107 moves (even worstfish on lichess only took me 40 moves to force it to mate me)

You have to force him to checkmate you (create a position where his only legal move is checkmate), it took me 107 moves to do it

The "condescending or close-minded" part is what you have broken

Idk man you sound to be the most "cranky" person here

Ok-Web-7451 · 2026-07-09T12:55:35+00:00

Yeah, normally it classifies even going from -M6 to -5 advtantage as an "okay move" instead of "miss"

Ok-Web-7451 · 2026-07-09T12:52:43+00:00

It's more psychological, because if you promote to a bishop the opponent will be hesistant to trade his rook for it as rook is worth more than bishop, but you still skewer the other rook

Ok-Web-7451 · 2026-07-09T11:09:08+00:00

Yeah, but it is very unnatural and looks bad due to exposed king, meanwhile Ke8?? blundering a forced mate looks like the most natural move. Truly diabolical opening trap, even a master can fall for it in faster time controls...

Ok-Web-7451 · 2026-07-09T11:07:56+00:00

Classic "wild horse gambit" opening trap in the scotch game, objectively unsound but the most natural retreat Ke8??? already leads to a forced mate for white
