I was skeptical at first and wanted to give Crystal a try. Indeed, it doesn't seem to be able to solve this (30 min. on 14 cores).

Re: Fat Fritz 2
It appears that the network file has been separated from the binary in the latest CB update. Not clear to me if this means that SF binary from Feb 12th is now the basis of FF2. The network file itself is (still) called FatFritz2_v1.bin. Peter Peter, Please run this command in Command Prompt Window ...

Re: Hikaru vs. bots
Today chess.com had an event in which participants played against many of their chess bots, which are basically various Komodo (version 13.3 I think) Skill levels modified in various ways. Levels 19 and below use evals from NNs that are designed to make them more "human", but the bots rated over 24...
