GG Greece. To bad for Portugal, we were really in the mood to go party tonight but oh well, we can't always have it our way :)

To bad for the sore losers tho. Better luck next time for you guys, to bad you can't lose with good sportsmanship...

To Bad Portugal cant get through a next stage in a tournament without a help of the referees :whistle:

shouldn't be saying that MountainSnake, both England and Holland teams have had WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more success than Portugese teams. don't bring the past into this, we're discussing something that happened today.

This is not past. It was this season.

Humm, England maybe, but Holland? I don't think so.

Exactly... and to have the Portugal keeper insulting Beckham before taking the penalty is BAD sportmanship. Greece were better sportmen and deserve it - I found it pathetic at the end of the match when Portugal were being agressive and kicking the ball off the pitch violently when things didn't go their way.

I also found it sad watching TV and an interview with fans from Portugal after Greece won and rather than accepting defeat they just insulted England and were saying how they won (ignoring the fact they lost... and they kept still saying they were better). Well, if you can't act nice then you don't deserve to win. :no:

Bad losers exist in every country...

But I'm surprised there are actually so many in this thread too .

why didnt they deserve to lose?

they played awfully

GO GREECE

If you go back and see, every team who played greece (except russia that had nothing to loose) seemed to play worse than the usual, that's because greece won't let them play their game, they are very good in defense and they will take advantage of every mistake the other team does...

That's how they got to the final, and that's how they won, congratulations to them! (and Portugal didn't play that bad!)

At the beginning there were quotes of 150:1

Greece pulled off arguably the biggest shock at a major football championship as a goal by Angelos Charisteas gave them victory at UEFA EURO 2004?. Having begun the tournament as 80-1 outsiders, the achievement of Otto Rehhagel's team of European journeymen is hard to put into perspective, but once again the belief they have shown in themselves throughout this amazing adventure was too strong for their opponents.

Quoted from Euro2004 website.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
