Diaz fighting stoned got Carlos to have the runs. j/k. Diaz messed up huge. I'm a fan of his but didn't believe in the whole rematch idea and now this. Damn.

I guess this was why the rematch was never official. Cesar Gracie knew Diaz was going to **** hot. I can't even keep track of how much money Diaz has screwed himself out of with this move. The UFC won't cut him because he's a polarizing fighter who draws in the fans but he'll be on the shelf for a long time and won't get an immediate title shot.

Should GSP drop the title in favor of Carlos (which he totally should), Juggernaut gets the next crack at it.

The article makes the guy sound like he didn't much care for Diaz in the first place. I'm not going to make excuses for Diaz but weed being a PED is pretty much laughable. Oh well, its not like the UFC didn't know, that is probably one reason he won't get cut.

Kizer already explained why it's legal, not because it's a PED but because it can make you lathargic and jeopardize the person taking it, whereas PED is more about the safety of the opponent.

I don't think the writer of the article sounded like that at all, but after all of the countless times he's mentioned Diaz letting everyone down, how can you still be a diaz fan? The facts are that he's a manchild, he's NOT the greatest fighter in the world, he doesn't follow anyones rules etc etc.. I find it hard to believe anyone can still be a diaz fan after all this ****.

For me, I couldn't stand Nick and Nate until I started training and sparring etc. Then as fighters they started to grow on me just because of how real they were and what I understood in the gym. Its more of an appreciation I suppose. Its hard to just drop Nick even though he may not do the right things. He is as real of a fighter as it gets.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
