Group F seems to be the group of death. Glad England dodged that one.

 

With Group D, you'd say Italy and England should go through. England i reckon will make a meal of it though. They always do.

 

Yeah that?s the problem haha; I think Costa Rica won't make it, I hope they play extremely well... but dunno...

They were talking on the radio that if the temperature rises above 32?C that the referee will call a time-out. Is this for real?

 

How well do they think that is going to work in Qatar where it is ALWAYS over 32?C?

Now that is still a long way to go :-).

 

Also, my country (Belgium) has a pretty good group, I hope they'll do splendid :)

There is absolutely no favoring of France. The fact that they end up in a group like that is purely random. :shifty:

Of course not! And the fact that are (again) playing in a world cup thanks to more irregularities.

What bothers me the most is that they have no ######ing clue regarding Brasil's weather. They will be playing in ######ing winter. You will rarely get those temperatures.

Yes, this is real, for the first time.

"The equatorial climate of Manaus is another of its most interesting traits, with an annual temperature average of 28?C, air humidity of over 80 per cent and two very defined seasons: the rainy one (December to May) and the so-called dry season, between June and November, when precipitation is not as intense and temperatures may reach as high as 40?C."

Another World Cup; another year when England deludes itself that it is a contender. :)

It will be a typical world cup I think, soon as England get knocked out I support Italy.

 

Though I was very impressed with England under 17's winning the euro championships, penalty shoot out against the Netherlands.

 

The team were dam good, so maybe, they might lift the trophy when it is in Russia.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
