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 :)

Big soccer guy here....watch Liverpool every weekend and usually catch CL on the weekdays....I watch other teams usually during the big games. @Steven P. I remember watching Portsmouth in PL long time back! Gosh, searching Wiki.......Peter Crouch, Sylvain Distin (I'm pretty such Benitez wanted him at some point), Glen Johnson and Kranjcar, Defoe holy smokes..Kanu...hahah there was a point where people were questioning his age because he looked pretty old.

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 +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
