Man, am I the only one who got a little choked up at the standing ovation as Jack tee'd off this morning?

Just watched the replay again, and man... Jack's got class. The game of golf will not be the same without him.

In just general, it's sad to see all the original greats/fathers of golf slowly retiring from the game they raised and grew to love. Jack is what I consider the greatest player of golf and if it wasn't for him, we probably wouldn't have Tiger Woods or any of the younger players that are playing at the level they are today. He set the standards high and well, he must be proud of what he did for a game that has come so far. I'm sad to see him go, but I was shocked when I saw Greg Norman playing...

Faldo had an amzing finish with a 3, 2 on 17, 18 with two incredible shots. He wasn't in contention or anything but it was a hell of a way to finish up. And Tiger has pulled quite a ways away from Monty and Olazabal. They struggled a bit and he's been steady, shooting a -3 on the day. Looks like 10 majors is just another 20-30 minutes away.

That does sound cool. Anybody watch the American Century Celeb Event at Tahoe? Man, I'll have to catch one of those in person someday. It looked like those guys were having a blast! Ray Romano's group spent most of the time cuttin' up and joking with the crowd. Looks like fun. :)

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
