Actually, I've brought up soccer before - and about to bring up the FIFA Women's World Cup yet again. (And yes - for the same reason I brought it up in 2015.  USWNT does back2back: US 2, Netherlands 0.) https://www.foxsports.com/soccer/video/1563826243897?utm_campaign=share_buttons&utm_medium=fscom&utm_content=return_visit&utm_term=section_front_pinned&utm_source=share_url

I have been a Chelsea fan since 2008

You're a Chelsea fan so I would like to share with you a platform where you can get a chance to meet one of Chelsea players Trevoh Chalobah. The platform is The Residency which gives football fans an opportunity to meet with their favorite football players.

That's a no then? ;)

Twice Champions of England and twice won the FA cup (2 times runners up, most recently in 2010) meanwhile the other "big" team on the south coast can only boast about escaping relegation before being relegated after 28 years (winning the FA Cup once in the 70's) and their new stint in the Premier League is once again all about not getting relegated and mid table mediocrity, They are down there again this season 😛 No passion, and all their decent academy players end up in other PL teams.

Portsmouth FC might not be fashionable, but at least we have silverware in the trophy cabinet, the most recent major title (FA Cup winners 2008) in my lifetime as well :)

Haha yeah, Harry Redknapp used to joke that they would wheel him in a wheelchair to the tunnel before games and then after games he'd seize up for two days. I think he gave his age as 16 at Ajax in 1993 and Harry used to joke about that too, everyone thought he was older than his given age, but he scored the goal at the FA Cup win in 2008 so he'll always be a legend at Pompey 😛

    • 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.
