2005 LA Auto Show


Recommended Posts

i went on saterday.. a bit disappointed, because most of the cars they were showing were the same ones from last year.. there were a few new cars..

compared to last years show.. these pictures suck. 1. there were just too many stupid people who gave photographers and just people with cameras no respect when trying to take a picture.. 2. i have this Kodac camera that is such a pain in the ass to use.. i'd say 20% of all the pictures i took came out blurry, i've deleted them.

hope you like :)

PLEASE try to keep this link within the community, i don't want my bandwidth jacked up. thanks.

i was there too, it was a little disappointing, but the tuner cars at kenita hall kicked ass. They had a polynesian ford there with a hottub in the back. Also, I would never drive one of those hydrogen cars, because if you bump anything, even slighly, the hydrogen will most likely explode, that's the reason why the car is so big anyway, its mostly a giant steel wall between the fuel cell and the driver.

you don't know how bad i wanted to take pictures in the Kentia Hall. :no: most pics came out too blurry or just too many damn people crowding.

and the hydrogen car.. WTF? i've seen a 7 series powered by Hydrogen.. if it could explode like the way you described.. they better do something about that.

hey, i just got back. i didn't go last year, so i had a lot of fun this year. transferring over my pics now, i will post some when i'm done. i never made it down to the kentia hall, not really into all that stuff. i just wanted to see my porsches :)

trust me you didn't miss much.. even Toyota's and Mitsubishi's new cocept trucks were crap.

i saw the new Honda Ridgeline up close and it was pretty cool.. i was impressed by Honda.

Now, there were two things that did get my attention.. two new cars i've never heard of. Spyker and Venturi. Did you see those? They were in the same room as the Ferrari and Bently

yeah, they were really nice. that was the first time i've heard those names too.

/edit

your pics came out pretty good. lighting in those halls is a bitch, and unless you are really paying attention, it can be tricky. plus all the glass and reflections make it hell for your AF.

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
