Pretty good result for the Hammers, and also an outstanding one for Swansea! First win at The Arsenal in 30 years I think!

My beloved Villa were pretty bloody useless again today, almost conjured up a goal at the death, but was not to be!

I'm still here, although as Chelsea supporter, its been a roller coaster of a season thus far. Really not sure what to say of it, really. Not a Benitez fan, really, but finally someone has come in and put the kabosh on David Luiz in defensive back. Sideshow Bob aggrivates me to no end - if he's going to be on the pitch, put him at midfield and let him run around, if anything.

I'm just getting sick of everytime checking the scores and Chicharito or RVP has some crazy ass late minute goal to steal points for MU. Getting rather irritating, actually.

It happens so frequently, it isn't luck anymore. It's written in MU's DNA :) On a serious note yesterdays clean sheet was a milestone for us because we've been leaking goals all over the place this season, hopefully with our defence back to full strength, we can tighten up at the back.

Sideshow Bob, haha great name. I agree, he's a beast in midfield & his free kicks aren't bad either. Chelsea looked strong at the start of the season and I thought they would go on to win the PL. It surprised me how bad they flopped but they aren't looking too at the moment and with a few games in hand, I think they can easily beat Man City to 2nd spot before the season is up :D

Looks like Southampton are finally getting used to the PL. We're not winning as much as we should but we're not losing either. We'd have won yesterday if it wasn't for Cameron's wonder goal. Hopefully we'll have enough to keep us out the relegation battle towards the end of the season. I think Villa is going to be there and looking like QPR also.

Well, big win @ Everton today. Thank goodness for Lampard. We'll see how bad the Cech injury is - at least we have QPR on Wednesday.

No telling what will happen in transfer window. Sounds like Ba is close to done deal - a move I like very much.

Good time to sack our manager when we seem to be on the up.

If they were going to get rid of him, they should have done it at the start of the season.

Him and Pardew have put Southampton where they are now. I think he deserved more than this.

Well at least some other team is going to get a decent manager out of this.

Your board have made you a dead cert for relegation already.

Your ex-manager I heard, will be approached by Villa very soon.

It feels that way and at the moment I wouldn't be too bothered, would feel like an I told you so to NC. However come Monday I will be 100% behind the team and new manager.

NA is a genuinely good person and a good manager, he won't be out of work for long.

Alot of tweets I saw and response from Saints fans are saying they will go down now, the new manager said he had been studying the club for several weeks...football is just cruel and mystifying sometimes!

Honestly don't understand this one. I suppose if it's been weeks in the making then yes, but the timing of it seems absurd! Lets hope NC gets this one right, the last time he sacked a manager was Pardew when we just picked up a big win. He was replaced by Adkins and we all know how that one went, hopefully lightning can strike the same place twice.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By excalpius · Posted

      Ignoring the fact that this "colony" kicked the empire of King George's arse during those early years... You are confusing the First Industrial Revolution (which was pulled out of some butt-hurt Brit historian's arse) with the Second Industrial Revolution (aka the Technological Revolution), which transitioned the world from the UK sailing Empire to the USA as a superpower. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution
    • OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5

      OpenAI announces GPT‑5.6 Sol, its next-generation flagship model beating Claude Mythos 5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Credit: OpenAI OpenAI today announced a limited preview of its new GPT-5.6 model series, which includes the Sol, Terra, and Luna models targeting different price points. GPT-5.6 Sol is the flagship model targeted at demanding reasoning and agentic workloads. GPT-5.6 Terra is positioned as a balanced model for everyday work, featuring performance competitive with GPT-5.5 while being half the cost. GPT-5.6 Luna is the fastest and most affordable model, delivering strong capability at a lower price point. Unlike previous model releases from OpenAI, GPT-5.6 is starting with a limited preview for a small group of trusted partners due to U.S. government restrictions. As expected, OpenAI previewed its plans and the models' capabilities to the U.S. government ahead of launch, and the government asked OpenAI to limit the first wave of access to select partners. OpenAI also mentioned in the official announcement blog post that it does not believe this type of government access process should become the long-term default. OpenAI highlighted that GPT-5.6 Sol comes with a robust safety stack featuring improved protections for higher-risk activity, sensitive cyber requests, and repeated misuse. The company also spent several weeks pressure-testing the system and hardening it against real-world attacks. On the capability side, as expected, GPT-5.6 Sol is OpenAI’s strongest model yet. It delivers better results in agentic performance across coding, biology, and cybersecurity. On the Terminal-Bench 2.1 benchmark, which tests command-line workflows requiring planning, iteration, and tool coordination, GPT-5.6 Sol sets a new record with a score of 91.9%, beating Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5. Additionally, GPT-5.6 introduces a new "max" reasoning effort for even deeper reasoning. The new "ultra" mode uses subagents to accelerate complex work beyond what a single agent can handle. Pricing starts at $5 per million input tokens and $30 per million output tokens for Sol. Terra costs $2.50 for input and $15 for output, while Luna costs $1 for input and $6 for output. GPT-5.6 comes with more predictable prompt caching, including support for explicit cache breakpoints and a 30-minute minimum cache life. Sol will also launch on Cerebras in July at speeds up to 750 tokens per second for select customers. OpenAI plans to make GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna broadly available in ChatGPT, Codex, and the API in the coming weeks.

      I'm not sure if you are trolling because I saw people saying this with the straight face, but there were no United States of America when industrial revolution started, just United Colonies 🤣 p.s. I'm not British, so I'm not offended.

      Glad I uninstalled this incredibly buggy browser. Looking at that changelog, they clearly don't test their updates at all.
