SirEvan for most games, except World in conflict, where it's [LGNDS]SPCRich1AD

In case you want to know what the Sirevan is for, its an old inside joke from a company i used to work for, where i spent 15 minutes trying to get a customer to know my name...I'd tell him "Evan.....Sir" and he'd reply EVANSIR.....for 15 minutes straight....so i changed it to Sirevan. The WIC name is my clan, plus SPC (specialist, my rank when i was in the Army, RICH-my last name, and 1AD, for the 1st Armored Division that i was in when I was in the army.

Cool thread, let the aliasing begin! (Y)

Xfire: rraze

Nowadays I only play two games online with two different names.

CS:S: revv

Urban Terror: ls|rw

I've had way too many aliases in Urban Terror so I'll stick to my original 2.x name, redwave which I abbreviate now which means it's sort of another alias :ninja:

I generally only play "online" in the capacity of my LAN or at LAN parties, but I will every once in a while join an online game of Tremulous or Nexuiz. On Tremulous I'm ANovastral (makes me curious how ANova got his name) and on Nexuiz I'm "[sACRILEGE]Gruesome_Cruciform", which harks back to a long-running in-joke at a LAN party I hosted a while back.

Most of the time, though, in any online/multiplayer/LAN game I play, I'm "Aidan Novastral," "ANovastral," "Aidan," or "Novastral," or some other variant of the name.

Now Source: Hydro or Number 2. I have a real wide selection.

Back in the sof2 days I went from OnE+PuNcH+MiCkY (very briefly) to Psych0 (which i held for about 2 - 3 years) Then to Vamp!r3, then finally shortened to Vamp, and have stuck with that since!

use Vamp for everything now, steam, game profiles etc. Apart from Xbox Live where it was taken, so I'm Mr Vampy (me and my mates all put Mr before our name)

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      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.
