Well, I'm not in the same situation, but something close to it. The wife says that I spend WAY too much time on the computer. She's threatened to leave me if I don't spend more time with her. She always says that if she strapped a keyboard and monitor to her ass, then I would be more interested in her. Perhaps this is what happened in your situation John? Too much computer time?

If your wife is saying that.... I'd watch out, it could turn out to be true.

Well... Ok.

It's a simple case of lack of communication *and* being tested.

The lesson I learned is this:

Never, ever do a 3-way even if you're convinced it's ok and a good idea. And if you do, act like you didn't like it and couldn't care less. And failing those two things and you're tossed out of your own house don't go outside for 5 minutes to let them cool down - TAKE YOUR GEAR WITH YOU. 5 minutes is enough time to take out the display, a brand new Travelmate 8204 and a Cingular 8125 phone.

The display has been replaced (arrived yesterday). I didn't really like the Travelmate anyway so I replaced i with a MacBook Pro.

As for the relationship, eeehhh... We'll see.

Dude, we definatly need a story with this.

    • NVIDIA AI Trained Itself on a 30B Model: Corrected Its Own Broken Metric Mid-Run

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Autonomous post-training loop placed 8th of 4,000 and then rewrote its own evaluation strategy. An autonomous AI system built by researchers at Amazon's A-EVO-Lab completed a full post-training run on a 30 billion parameter NVIDIA Nemotron model — with no human in the loop, across four rounds running over multiple weeks — and then did something its designers had not planned for: it detected that its own internal evaluation metric had become misleading and redesigned the search strategy it was using to improve itself. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319123/20260626/nvidia-ai-trained-itself-30b-model-corrected-its-own-broken-metric-mid-run.htm

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      By naap51stang · Posted

      If Ford would stop hiring SUITS to run the company, and put CAR GUYS back in charge perhaps they could do better. Heck, the only CAR they produce today is the Mustang. Hey Ford! Not everyone needs/wants an overpriced SUV or pickup truck that is so tall you have to have a step ladder to get in and out of it.

      Amazing how some will just jump all over something. Probably the same people that thought Musk was a "tech god" before he saddled up with "bad orange man". Before, they worshiped at his feet, including a lot of so called hollywood types. Now, because he fell off the plantation truck, they toss him under the bus.
