In Belgium it's not even allowed to drive a before you are 18. Not even when somebody older then 25 is sitting next to you.

Een X5 is trouwens een wijven landbouwvoertuig voor van die berimpselde tuttebellen die stinken naar vatsige parfum. Soit da gezegd, back to being 29 and getting out of a 16 year old kids fantasy.

I left Belgium 2 months ago and moved to a banana island in de caribbean I sold my car in Belgium and bought myself a 17 year old suzuki samurai jeep. I fixed it up a bit and currently it takes me to all the difficult to reach dive spots on the island :D No need for an expensive car here, people here don't seem to mind bumping in to eachother with their cars once in a while :pinch:

Not correct my friend. The rules cleary state that when you reach the age of 16 years and 9 months that you can do a theoritical exam. When you pass that you may drive with a person (mostly your mom or dad) who has a license and is older than 25.

Hope that clears it up, you do have to wait until you're 18 before you may drive on your own.

1985 Subaru BRAT GL pickup. Subaru never really made a lot of these trucks, so I try to keep it up. It's still got the t-tops, factory bull bar, and is possibly awaiting a stock roll bar and baja lights that I have in the garage. At the moment, the low fiberglass cap is back on it, and it is housing dual 12" subs and a Lightning Audio 450W amp. Power comes from the stock 1.8L opposed four cylinder plant, boasting a hefty 73hp and 62lb.ft. of torque. All that snot is transferred through the four speed dual range 4x4 gearbox. To be quite frank, with a lift kit, a few engine mods, and Swampers, these trucks are formidable on the 4x4 scene.

    • Yeah, when I saw that, I wanted to find the nearest nose. You can't find a good nose these days when you need one.
    • Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with state-of-the-art coding capabilities. Due to the cybersecurity implications that would occur due to the availability of such a powerful model, Anthropic made it available to only a select set of companies around the world. The company's plan was to prepare appropriate guardrails before releasing such a powerful model to everyone. Now, after nearly two months, Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, its most capable AI model yet for general users. The company also announced Claude Mythos 5, the same underlying model as Fable 5, but with safeguards lifted, making it more suitable for selected cybersecurity and biology use cases. Claude Fable 5 sits a tier above its Opus models and it beats most other generally available models across areas including software engineering, knowledge work, vision, scientific research, and long-running autonomous tasks. To prevent model misuse, when Claude Fable 5 detects certain requests related to cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, or model distillation, the request will be routed to the Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic claims that these safeguards trigger in less than 5% of sessions on average. However, for large organizations working on critical software, Claude Mythos 5 can be availed through Project Glasswing. Later, Anthropic has plans to expand access through a broader trusted access program. As you can notice in the benchmarks above, Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are state-of-the-art on most key AI benchmarks and they are well ahead of OpenAI's frontier model, GPT-5.5. For example, Fable 5 is the new state-of-the-art model for vision tasks. Also, Mythos 5 has the strongest cybersecurity capabilities of any model in the world. Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 are priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, which is less than half the price of Claude Mythos Preview. Another big change is that Anthropic is making a change to the way they handle business customer data for both Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. The company will now require 30-day retention for all traffic on both first- and third-party surfaces. Anthropic promises that it won't use the data to train Claude models, instead it will use it against complex and novel attacks. Claude Fable 5 is available today on the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans. It is also included at no extra cost for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise customers from today through June 22. After that, users on those plans will need usage credits to continue using Fable 5, unless Anthropic extends the included access window based on capacity. Developers can access Fable 5 through the Claude API using the claude-fable-5 model name.
