England just reaped what they sow, tbh.

To lose 2-1 against France would have been seen as a good result before the game, especially for a team that hasn't gotten past the first round of the European Championships in 34 years!

Zidane was majestic. Finally some revenge for Man Utd scoring twice in the last 2 minutes against Bayern in 1999. I thought I'd never hear the end of that, twas all you could hear about on Sky News for about a month after.

I just loved turning over to Sky News tonight, and not hearing a single word about the game on the 10 o'clock news!!! Really shut them up. :-)

One of THE most satisfying games I've ever seen!

just saw the game on tv. france were good the first half, but they didnt deserv to win the game, they really didnt. i feel sorry for heskey that made that mistake which let france into the game. okay, zidane is a great player, as well as beckham, but he isnt the best, and neither is the brasilian team, if you say that, youre either 13 years old or know nothing about soccer. :(

I think you're conveniently forgetting Euro 96 when England got to the Semi-finals!!!

Anyway back to tonites game, Beckham did nothing unrtil the free kick that lamaprd converted, then did nothing again for the rest of the match and even missed a penalty!!!

Zidane did nothing for most of the game except the last 2 minutes!!!

What a massive dissapointment for France really. OK - lets look at this objectivly. I thought England played a good first half, with very very strong defence. France got a very lucky late penalty, and even more lucky one off david james. At the end of the day, england played amazing football whereas france were distinctly lacking. I dont think this proves bad for Englands standings in Euro04; the only thing its going to hurt is over hyped pride in the england squad.

In a way it's good because that will act as a "cold shower" on the English team.

Still happy France won though :p

You have got to be joking mate, England played alright, well defended well. They kept France at bay, for all of the game, bar the extra time winners. France may not have been in top form but they were far from lacking. End of the day you got hoodwinked, by a cracking free kick, and poor pass back for the penalty. It was enevitable since you had 9 players behind the ball most of the second half, how much pressure can a defence take ?

    • 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.
