The ending is funny :p

Eww her dad :rofl:

LMFAO! For the first one: why the heck is Bill saying Zoey :laugh:

First the TF2 heavy+someone clips then these :laugh:

After paying $60 for Half-Life 2, and having sit through a 5 hour install process, I will never again buy or play a Valve game.

Yes, it was that aggravating.

If you did that for the initial release of Half Life 2... that was four years ago. :huh: No surprise that on its release their servers were being raped to hell and back.

Item 1: All Valve titles on steam

Item 2: Half-Life 2

To start off, there is no Steam SKU that is priced at $60 which contains HL2, the most expensive being the complete pack at $99. Secondly HL2 is priced at $19.99.

Therefore you must of purchased retail, in which case you got massively ripped-off. That or you're only claiming to have paid $60 and you pirated the game, which would be a possible explanation to how you spent "5 hours" installing the game.

If you did buy a legal retail copy, then i suggest you take it up with the retailer you bought it from.

That, or this is a very poorly executed trolling attempt. That's all the possibilities i can think of so far.

^^ He probably got Half Life 2 on release back in fall 2004, which back then I can see how it may have cost $60. Also add that HL2's launch was plagued with Steam problems.

Ah, i suppose that's true thinking back.

What i still don't understand is the need to "Rain on this thread's parade" by bringing something up from 2004. :/

Would anyone be up for some Neowin Versus this weekend? ( Xbox 360 )

Count me in on possibly Saturday afternoon and/or at some point Sunday afternoon.

The first time massiveterra played versus was also my first time as well as we were playing together with 6 of his friends, and I definitely have to say although I am not as super impressed as he is as I happen to think CoOp is really fun too, I thoroughly did enjoy versus a whole damn lot. Honestly the best absolute way to enjoy versus is playing people you know, so if we can get 8 people to do a 4 vs 4, that is definitely the way to play it.

Anyone up for some L4D on Steam? Been playing a bit and love it. Be great to share the experience with some fellow Neowinians!

Maybe next month, when I'll (hopefully) get this game. :cry:

Would someone please be so kind to spam this thread endlessly when Valve runs a discount sale for L4D? :)

get the 4 pack. you pay less money.

Uhh.. no go. Good luck finding three others to split the cost with... well in my case. Everyone likes to pirate :/

Usually around the week of Christmas Steam has a storewide discount on games, so I'll wait until then...

    • 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.
