Feh, during the 2002 FIFA World Cup I was supporting both Portugal and Japan.

Mainly because of the Captain Tsubasa/Oliver Atton animes, the very beautiful japanese kit, and also because of Hidetoshi Nakata (one of my idols).

I always liked my hair in the military style, but, in that summer I kept it growing and changed into Hide's colour. :pinch:

Hey my girlfiend is one of the top officials on Asian Cup organizing comittee!!! I don't mean to brag or anything but the whole thing would fall apart without her :p. She has been very busy. ALL the teams officials call her with every little minor detail as well as the reffs and the Chinese press. It's cool though because we can go to any of the games for free. If anyone in China is going, I'll see you at the opening cerimonies!!!

Inside news? I dunno. I'll ask her if there is anything interesting when she's home from work in a few hours. As far as exlusive pics, probably once the tourney starts. In a few nights we will go out to a dinner and the princes of Saudi Arabia will be there. Pretty cool :)

Well I have bad news for u..

No Cheerleaders in Soccer.. yet! Maybe in the future.. tell your GF to give them the suggestion :)

Here is the Asian Cup Prediction Game guys:

:cry: Damn, I was getting really excited. Asked her about inside info and she said a few things that are not interesting and not worth posting. Sorry. Mostly she just complains about her co-workers and what things they do :p. I'll give her the link and ask her to spread it arround the office. Not all of them speak very good English though so we'll see ;)

Well I went to the opening cerimonies and the first game between China and Bahrain. I met the president of FIFA!!! I was in the VIP section so I was with all those important people like top Chinese government officials and the AFC officials. I also met some players from Indonesia. The opening cerimonies were pretty boring and the game was just ok. I was reminded of why I don't like soccer much :p. I'll be going to more games though and hopefully I can get into it. I don't have hockey here so I need a sport to enjoy ;)

    • 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.
