Saw part of the press conference. They're going to keep the same field dimensions. Just under 51,000 seats with 30,000 on the lower level and 20,000 on the upper. Supposedly better lines of sight for EVERYONE. ANd even at concession stands you'll hjave lines of sight to the field. Looks incredible with the old facade. I'll post a link of design pics if I find one.

This is sacrilege... Well, i suppose it's not that serious. I've never been to Yankee Stadium, so I'm not sure about all of hte line of sight issues and what not, but seriously, this place is a living museum. It's the 3rd oldest park in the game, right behind Fenway and Wrigley. If they tore down either Wrigley Stadium (thanks, Jeff Gordon) or Fenway Park, I would be surprised. They oughta leave Yankee Stadium as it is.

They're NOT tearing down the current stadium. They're going to keep it in use for high school and other league games. Plus I'm sure it will be turned into a museum-type thing.

And that second pic is inaccurate. They scrapped the retractable roof idea. Though yeah the top one is pretty much on.

I have heard that, and i have heard that they were tearing it down. It wouild be kinda dumb to tear it down, yes? That'd be something for high school kids to play on it. Something for them to remember.

Today they talked to I think it was Levine, the President of the Yanks, about keeping the old stadium for high school games and essentially as a museum when it's not being used for games.

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

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      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.
