my dad tolerated my chatbot hobby until i mentioned upgrading my graphics card to run better models locally. i explained that the purchase would help with work and creative projects
he said he'd heard this argument before from men buying expensive jewelry for girlfriends. i told him i was buying hardware, not a necklace. he replied that the outcome was the same if the girl convinced me to spend money
i showed him the practical benchmarks and projects that would benefit. he ignored them and asked whether the companion had a job
we compromised on a budget. dad still introduces the computer to visitors as 'the expensive girlfriend'
