PortuLOL.

Bad day for Portuguese everywhere. To be honest I was expecting the Germans to win, but not that decisively. There's definitely something weird about this World Cup. So manu upsets in the first twelve games!

Pepe was just being stupid. If he hadn't done that, Portugal might have had a chance... but after that it looked like Portugal just gave up.

 

Nope, the problem started in the players heads. The team was VERY WEAK, they almost didn't represent any danger. Then the weirdness went on: first the first goal, then the stupidity by Pepe, the injuries of Hugo Almeida and Coetr?o (wth two top players suffering injuries in the first game? bad physical preparation or what?), the missed penalty for Portugal and the list goes on. It was definitely a bad game for Portugal and I salute Germany for doing a good game.

Portugal are a talented side without discipline, whereas the Germans play like a well oiled and drilled unit. They looked really good today even before the sending off.

 

And I'm sorry but the rules of football are clear. You act aggressively and you're off, and that's precisely the way it should be IMO, it strongly discourages violent play. That said I really do think that FIFA need to do more to punish people that are playacting, so I can see why Pepe was annoyed.

      They themselves used AI slop to convert its C++ codebase to Rust. But I do agree with their concerns.

    • Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs by Usama Jawad Late last year, Microsoft planned to begin the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on certain Windows PCs. However, in March 2026, it disabled this process due to a technical issue and informed customers that it would let them know when it would resume. It seems like that was only a temporary respite, as the Redmond tech giant has started the forced installation of the app on eligible devices. In an update on its Message Center for IT admins, Microsoft has informed customers that it is resuming the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot on commercial Windows PCs that have Microsoft 365 apps already installed. What this means is that if you have Microsoft Office apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more installed on your Windows PC through a Microsoft 365 license, you'll likely see the Microsoft 365 Copilot app pop up in your Installed Apps section soon, too. Fortunately, IT admins do have some control over this rollout. If they choose to opt out, devices in their tenant won't automatically get the dreaded Copilot app. However, phased rollout via feature flags has already begun and is expected to be completed by the end of June: Feature Flag1: started Jun 4, expected to finish June 10 Feature Flag2: expected to start on June 11, expected to finish on June 17 MSGraph schema rollout: expected to start on June 18, expected to finish on June 24 Feature Flag3: expected to start on June 25, expected to complete by July 1st Microsoft hasn't detailed what the process is to toggle the feature flags in its Message Center, and its public support page does not seem to mention it yet either. The Redmond tech giant has encouraged IT admins to let users know beforehand so they aren't caught by surprise to see a new app seemingly installed without manual interaction or their consent. Users who already have the app installed or are based in the European Economic Area (EEA) are unaffected by this move, which Microsoft has understandably flagged as a "major change".
