You're a post ######. Stick your repeat posts up your arse, And to show we're childish, you do NOT see us defacing your flag. That's a term of disrespect and I personally think you need your ass kicking. ******."
@.Atlantis: You're an idiot. First, there are two threads with same subject. On both threads, people used the same excuses and I replyed using the same opinion. Second, I didn't "defacing" your flag. That picture is from a signature made by someone else here in neowin. I simply put the "X" on the word "Not". It's a joke and not an insult. Everybody can see that (except a stupid and a brain dead kid like you).
Sad to see England robbed of the win by the referee (that 2-1 goal WAS in, and not a foul). I bet he can become a honorary portuguese citizen anytime, and god knows how many Euro's richer he is today, by disallowing that goal. England won the game 2-1. Sure, they defended too much, but that  still doesn't change the fact that they were ROBBED of a win. So no, sorry, I just can't congratulate Portugal. You dive too much.

@Frankenchrist: Again with the "diving" story? <g> You seem like a broken record. Always saying the same thing. Whatever. The referee was right to disallow Sol Campbell's header. Terry clearly put his arm across the goalie to impede him and the rules state that the goalkeeper cannot be touched inside the box. You can't prevent the goalkeeper from jumping. Rules are rules.

It's always the same story, same old excuses. Blame the ref, the penalty spot, Portugal had an extra day to prepare, etc. It's always the same with english supporters. What a bad loosers! No elses whines so much! Once again, everything conspired against England... LOL!

England was simply beaten by a better team. Portugal made a great match. You sucked on penalties. We didn't. Period. Better luck next time.

Enough.

you always have to pick on something... stop this because it's getting old.

Rui Costa is very far from being a god these days.

France - Greece in 2 hours

Pick on something? I'm not picking on anything, just pointing out that England far from sucked considering they lost by 1 goal in sudden death.

Oh, and you'll be delighted to know that Urs has been universally panned by Referees the world over including those still reffing at Euro 2004. They just ran a story on ITV News :rolleyes:

Those pictures definitely show that it was disallowed. The english player pulling and holding on to the goalkeeper like that.

The ref in the Czech v Holland game... now he was biased towards the Czechs. He gave out a yellow card for almost no reason when tougher fouls had been commited just so the yellow would turn to red. Not to mention the amount of holding taking place when the Czechs were literally holding down the Dutch when they entered their penalty box w/o any penalty given.

All the critics and football commentators would disagree and they know slightly more about the rules that you, a random person on a forum.

Plus, as I've said before, the linesman cleared it as an OK goal, just the ref disapproved!

    • 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.
