Obviously more English humor I just don't get, a "chess engine" cannot start a vehicle. 🙄

That's what makes it funny sir.

(Strawman humour).

You are confusing a chess engine with an engine which can start a vehicle, I don't get the humor in it at all. Or you are just being a smart ass.

'A straw man argument is a logical fallacy that involves misrepresenting an opponent's argument to make it easier to attack.'

It also works for humour. For example?

"I like to eat toast," said Bob.
"What?" replied Tim, "You like to eat toads?" (Pretending to mishear).
"Oh my god," said Sharon, "can't believe Bob is a toad eater."

Is Rusty correct that a chess engine could power a Chevrolet?


I wonder who the wise guy/gal was that said a chess engine could power a Chev?
Perhaps they had a bang in the head too. 😉

Actually GBS does use an engine, but only to power his Chevrolet Matiz.
It runs on a “cheese engine”. OK perhaps that might be misleading. It actually works by tantalizing mice with cheese that is hung in front of a treadmill that they, the mice, are running on thus generating the energy to work the complicated apparatus euphemistically referred to as “the engine”.🤔😲👍
