Pitt looks awful. Pacific keeps changing up their defense and Pitt looks clueless. And yeah for west coasters i guess makes more sense than niagara-okla since the other two are at the half. This is nuts, I have a TV, radio, and online updates going all at once here. I need DirectTV lol

Looks like UKs going to survive a bit of a scare. Pitt's closed the gap in their game. And my 12-5 upset looks good with UWM up by 12 :)

/edit gah i need Pitt to make this comeback lol

WVU-Creighton has been the only great finish so far. Let's hope tomorrow is more exciting. I noticed that no blowouts like they used to have. I think the biggest win was BC over Penn by 20. What happened to the days of #1s beating 16s by 40 or so? Its true with so many of the best high-schoolers going pro theres a lot more level playing field now. The big programs don't get those stacked teams anymore.

Um looking at you're picks the only thing i could figure is either:

A.) It takes into account that you not only picked a wrong team but picked them in the next round too (Alabama)

B.) Its kind of on a curve and it just distributes from the top person.

I don't really know but that's the only thing I could figure. Just wait until after tonight and see how it is after the first round is done

Well boys, I'm pretty much DONE since i had 'Cuse going to the Final Four. Have fun stressing over your brackets whoever's left. Now i can just focus on my Tar Heels getting it done. :D. You can all hate on them if you want but all I know is so far they're the only 1 seed that dominated their opponent and basically had the game over after the first half. And I think we've seen that Big East teams aren't all they're cracked up to be this year. Don't get me wrong, after the Heels I'm an all Big East guy but only BC of all the Big East teams has TRULY dominated. BUt hey, that's why they play the games. We'll see.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      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"
