My friend, I could if I wanted to but I much prefer the cost of living in my current location. ;) Around here the most we have to see of California is a shared border and the terrible drivers. ;)

:: sighs ::

Hey, they did earn it. I'll give um that.

Shouldn't have ended that way, our ******* ******* defense needs to get their **** out of the **** and stop **** *** *** ****** **.

:angry:

At least the Avs lost.

The TV did survive, bounced a puck off of it though. Good news is I might have tickets to Game 5 at the Joe...for free. ;) Just talked to my uncle who has them and just broke his leg and can't make it so we'll see...I might have to spring for First Class Airfair and a Car but it'd be worth it.

did his leg get broken accidentally? lol :p

what is this? do you absolutely hate the avs? the wings are my second favorite team. as long as the avs or the wings win, i'm happy. :D

Let me put it this way, if the Avs were in the cup round, I'd support anyone from the Eastern Conference. ;)

As for the legs, nope, wasn't my fault this time...

As for the rest, I was in a bad mood going into this game about a few things which I won't go into here since one of them IS Neowin Related. :p

Gotta give it up for Minnesota as well....hell of a game against a great Av's team.

    • 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.
