[Golf] 2005 British Open


Recommended Posts

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. :)

    • Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.
    • In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.
    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
