Steal on hard drives!


Recommended Posts

im w/ dragoon, also lets put into consideration its monday morning when this happened.

Ubid would have to process and ship ALL of its orders submitted from some time friday afternoon, saturday and sunday.

they will be super busy!!

but this could work to our advantage... lets say that they take out our money first and the ship (duh!) since they

are so busy they'll take our money and since the are so busy once they realized that they have taken our money,

they have to complete the transaction and send out what we paid for (as advertised)!! i dont mind if it takes

a week to get to me, but if i get it it'll be worth it!!!!

do i sound like im getting desperate in finding ways that we will come out on top????????

yea.. i hate those dreams... but i am def starting to wake up from this.. i know i am not going to get my 8 hds in the mail

well i ordered 1, and i could see them honoring this had only a few people ordered 1, but with people ordering 8 and putting them out of stock on some, i doubt it....

im so into this that ive setup myie2 to auto refresh...

every 10 minutes - my bank's website w/ my account $$$ and any pending charges.

every 15 minutes - my ubid account order status page

every 5 mintes - Outlook Express for any Ubid emails

the emails of this info will be forwarded to my cell phone!!

im going to go to practice w/ my punk band. later alls and i hope we get what we want!!

if they dont honor their initial price, im going to email them a link to this

thread to show how we like the deal and how we got hosed!!

also threatening to go to the BBB works too!!

lol, this is the probably the fastest growing thread ever, i mean 10 pages in like 12 hours, thats alot.

-Update- 160GB IDE drives were cancled and my SATA order is still going strong, for about 3 hours now, im hoping and praying, i also have myIE2 setup on auto refresh and my email.

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
